“Zoe has escaped,”
Kylie said.
My eyes grew wide in disbelief. “Liar! Alpha Liam captured her. The two of you were in the dungeons together when she called me. How could she escape? Alpha Logan attacked the Brownfur pack and I know that you have renamed that pack as the Nightbloom pack. Are you feeling relieved now that you have your pack back and caught Zoe, too? You are such a hypocrite. When you are captured, your husband attacks other packs to free you Then why wouldn’t you free my Zoe? Liam abused her. She is fragile, helpless and pregnant.”
Kylie jerked her head back. Then her face twisted with anger. “When Zoe had that conversation with you on the phone, I was there. And Alpha Liam hadn’t captured her, he had captured me. All this was a wicked scheme of ‘Zoe. Zoe isn’t fragile or helpless! She was never abused by Alpha Liam. In fact, they both wanted to take over the
Lunar and the Nighbloom pack, and so they made a plan to trap you and I.”
“What? How conceited are you?”
I shouted with a voice filled with despair. “Now that you have got your pack, your money and a mate, you are robbing me of my happiness!”
The next moment, Alpha Logan was on my throat. “How dare you speak like this with my Luna?”
he growled as his muscles bulged. The bastard was too strong for me because I didn’t have my wolf. I sputtered and coughed I struggled to release my throat from his grasp. Kylie came behind him and murmured something, after which h left me and stepped back.
Asher held my shoulders as I gasped for breath.
Kylie took Logan back to the car and rubbed his forearm. He visibly calmed down. She turned to look at me and said, “Graham, it is your wish to believe me or not. In reality, Zoe was part of an elaborate plan with her husband to take over our packs. And this all started when my father was killed.”
I flinched upon hearing about her father. “Wh–what do you mean?”
I asked in a low voice.
She glared at me for a moment. “I think you know what I mean. After all, it was you who killed my father along with her, didn’t you?”
Graham POV
“What? No! Never!”
I blurted.
She chuckled humorlessly. “Zoe confessed she murdered my father because our packs would have merged once he passed away, as dictated by the laws. She also asked you to give me an anti– pregnancy shot for a period of two years so that I couldn’t have babies with you. And she did all this just for her own ambitions–to become the Luna of three packs without having to fight.”
She shook her head. “She played you right from the beginning and you got played flawlessly. I am so happy that you got what you deserved–a pathetic bitch like Zoe.”
A shudder ran down my spine. Zoe had confessed? At first, my mind went numb, and I stared at her with a blank expression. I said through my clenched teeth, “This is all a f**king lie! Zoe was never involved in killing your father. He died of a heart attack!”
I swallowed saliva down my throat. “Zoe needed my protection because she was abused.”
“Stop lying!”
she yelled. “For goodness’s sake, stop lying. You and Zoe killed my father to usurp my pack! You thought you were doing it and only you and Zoe were involved in it?”
She let out a rough exhale. “Well, let me inform you—she did it at Alpha Liam’s behest. You thought you could make her your Luna after throwing me in dungeons, all while making it appear like a natural consequence of a jealous Luna? But did you know that she would have returned to her husband?”
I blanched. “No, Zoe loves me. And you have no witness about your father,”
I said, my voice turning to whisper.
“Oh, don’t worry,”
Kylie replied with red eyes, as if she was stopping her tears. “I will slap a case of murder against you and your Zoe in the Head Council! You will soon hear from me.”
Logan held her hand and brushed her knuckles. He tugged her to sit in the car, but she resisted, turned to look ‘over her shoulder at me and said, “That pup isn’t yours. It belongs to Alpha Liam. I am a she–wolf and I know how to add up the dates. Just do some math and you’ll know.”
Saying that, she went to sit in the car.
My mind went into a loop of turmoil.
Asher signaled his warriors to remove the blockade, and I saw their cars zipping past us. She threatened me of slapping another case on me about her father’s murder. How could Zoe confess this to her? And why? It made little sense. Was Zoe under pressure when she confessed it?
I returned to my pack with more regret than ever. It was late in the night and I didn’t want to meet anyone. My pack was silent, as if they were mourning the loss of the dead. I went to my room, which felt like an empty nest now. I wanted to think of Zoe, but all I was thinking about was Kylie.
I poured a glass of whiskey for myself, but I gulped it in one go and picked up the whole bottle instead. The burning sensation of whiskey did nothing to quell my dread and misery. I felt like a husk. I remembered how Kylie used to come to me in times of melancholy and my mood would lift. She was my mate and losing my mate was gnawing at my soul. My wolf had receded in the corners of my mind, refusing to come out, mourning the loss of his mate. I was sure that after marrying and marking Zoe, he would return, but after what Kylie said to me today, I wondered if there was any truth in Zoe’s claim.
If Zoe wasn’t pregnant with my pup, then all that I cherished would be lost in vain.
I tipped my head up and closed my eyes. My thoughts ran to how Zoe helped me in killing Alpha Jonas Kennedy. We had used an omega’s help who was later never heard of.
I stabbed my fingers in my hair. Did Zoe really play with me? Kylie had definitely planted seeds of doubt in my mind. I started calculating the days when I met Zoe and when we f**ked each other. Zoe said that she was pregnant with my pup, then how come Kylie was so sure that she was pregnant with Liam’s pup? Goddess! If that was the truth, I would be damned. Frustration mounted, and I threw the bottle across the room with a roar.
“Zoeeee!”
I shouted, as if she would come instantly and talk to me.
I had never regretted so much in my life. I had lost my mate and Luna for a dream that wasn’t there. Or was it?
Haze of confusion clouded my mind.
Being my childhood sweetheart, I loved Zoe a lot. I couldn’t believe that she could deceive me. I know Alpha* Liam abused her, but… I grabbed my hair with my hands. She never showed me where he whipped her or hit her. I recalled how Kylie was bruised when I hit her, but Zoe never had those kinds of marks.
Ever since I became the Alpha of the Lunar pack, I wanted it to grow stronger and bigger. With both Kylie and Zoe ‘ on my side, I dreamt of being the happiest wolf. But Kylie thwarted my plans.
“Kylie. Kylie. Kylie.”
I took a deep breath in. She depended so on me after her father’s death. I loved when she looked at me with all her love. It was never the same with Zoe. “F**k!”
The weight of losing my mate hit me like a ton of bricks. I rubbed my chest and then thumped it to shake out the feeling of sorrow and distress.
Suddenly, the door opened and Asher walked in with a tablet in his hand. “Alpha Graham, you must see this recorded video.”
“What is it?”
I asked, as he handed me the tablet. He played it and my eyes grew wide in shock. It was a video of security footage in which Zoe was running to meet someone at my pack’s boundary. She handed over a manila envelope to a man standing beneath a tree. When I pinched the picture out, I was surprised to see that it was
Liam staring back at me.
Kylie POV
For a long time, I didn’t speak in the car as I thought about Graham and his blind love and support for Zoe. How could he not see her deceit? Why was it that every time I tried to open his eyes, he would get even more irritated?
I sighed as I looked out of the window towards the mountains and valleys and pines and firs that I had grown attached to. Along with Graham, I used to run in this forest in our wolf forms. Times when Zoe wasn’t there. At least that’s what I assumed. But she was there, watching us all the time, strategizing her next move while I was so oblivious to her evil intentions, while I was committed to my pack’s well-being. I trusted Graham with all my heart, and he broke my heart with all his might.
“Kylie?”
Logan’s voice pulled me out of my reverie.
I snapped my head to look at him and forced a smile. Only when he wiped my cheeks, I realized I was crying.
“What are you thinking about?”
he asked.
I shook my head. In a voice choked with emotions, I said, “I want to go to the temple of the Moon Goddess and offer my prayers to her once we are in the Nord pack.”
His brows scrunched. “Sure, but why?”
“Because I want to thank her for giving me a second-chance mate.”
He stared at me intensely and pulled me close to him. Wrapping his brawny arm around me, he said, “In that case, I have to go with you, because I have been luckier in this department.”
I giggled. “I love you, Alpha Logan.”
He kissed the crown of my head. “And I love you more.”
Inhaling his scent, I settled my head on his chest as we drove to the Nord pack. I wanted to think of my next step, but all I did was sleep. When we reached our pack, he carried me in his arms all the way to our bedroom and settled me on the bed. After he helped me strip my clothes, he stripped his, and spooned me from behind. How could I not revel in his warm embrace?
I woke up in the middle of the night with a wet dream and a popping sound. “Uhhh…?”
I looked down in confusion, only to find Logan sucking my breast. His hand had disappeared between my thighs and one finger was in my pussy. Oh God! My Logan had the ability to make me wet, even in my dreams. His very hard shaft was lying against my thighs, branding my skin with its heat. “Logan!”
Without removing himself from my nipple, he looked up. “Hmmm?”
He inserted another finger inside me and started pumping them.
My body had its own mind when I was around Logan. I arched my back as heat pooled in my belly. “Ah!”
I came in two seconds, crying his name as the heat in my body uncoiled at the speed of an asp.
