“F uck?”
“Ba stian! I mean, be together.” I shake my head.
“Be together? Is that really you saying that? I guess it’s your fault for taking so long to take me back,”
he says arrogantly, the Bas tian I know showing through, and it brings a smile to my face.
“Well, I don’t play easy… You needed to beg.” I tease, turning and kissing his palm. He brushes his
fingers over my lips.
“Well, I can get down on my knees and beg you and serve you as you wish,” he murmurs.
My stomach does a flip and I know I’ll be taking him up on that offer someday soon.
“As long as I enjoy it, too.” He adds co ckily.
I love this man.
Smiling, I look up at him. “Well, I’ll hold you to it. I need to go. An nalise should be here soon, and I did
invite Annette. I don’t know if
she will show up. Have you been given anything to eat?”
“Yes, but I won’t touch it. I don’t trust it,” he says quietly.
I frown, I didn’t even think of that, and I nod slowly.
“Understood. I’ll bring food myself. I’ll be careful too.”
“Please do, especially for the children,” he says quietly. “And take care of my angel. She’ll get that
antidote, no matter what.”
“She will. We’ll figure something out.” I promise before I slowly tug away, not wanting this moment to
end. “I love you.”

“I love you too.” Giving him one final smile, I turn and force myself to walk away, leaving him in this
place
The mother and daughter duo now look at each other before looking at me with utmost confusion. If my
mood wasn’t so off, I’d find it a little amusing.
They clearly are confused as to why I am sitting at the head of the hall. It’s morning, yet I already feel
ready for the day to be over.
They have come all dolled up as if it’s a tea party, not a questioning.
“Take your seats,” I say, looking at Annette emotionlessly.
I didn’t expect her to come with An nalise.
Aran’s mate… they were well suited.
But the list of people I respect is shrinking day by day. There are a few higher officials of the pack in
attendance but I had made sure Aran was not in attendance.
“Do you know why you are here, Mrs Annette Toussaint, Miss, An n alise Toussaint?” I ask.
“We are here to talk to the Alpha. He called this meeting. He is the father of my child!” An nalise
whines, stroking her bump.
I look at her sceptically as I sit back in the large chair.
“Well, this time I hope that you really are pregnant and not simply causing trouble. As for Sebastian, he
is currently not the Alpha of this pack.”
“What does that mean?” Annette frowns.
“It means, Ms Zaja Toussaint, is our Alpha, Luna Annette.” One of the men at the table says.

They both stare at me stunned and gobsmacked.
“You- you mean Luna standing in as Alpha?” Annette splutters, laughing despite the fact she looks like
she’s about to be sick.

“No, Sebastian made me the Alpha, and there were many witnesses,” I explain, crossing my legs. “I
don’t have all day. I have a pack to run, business to attend to and much more.”
“How can she be the Alpha of two packs! It’s not fair you have to tell Dad to give me his pack!” An
nalise whines, looking at her mother.
Does she know she is not Hugh’s daughter? I doubt it or she wouldn’t be so arrogant…
“Let the meeting commence.” Someone says.
I nod as silence falls in the room. There are seventeen of us in this room, as well as several guards
posted at every corner of the hall and outside the doors.
Yet it’s absolutely silent.
“I will begin with questioning An nalise Toussaint on her apparent kidnapping and captivity several
years ago. Tell me, An nalise, with every single detail that you can remember exactly what happened.
From the day you were kidnapped, the time, how many people there were, the method, where you
were taken. Everything.” I say clearly.
Annette looks uneasy. I’m certain she was in on it, and had both probably fed Dad a story or two…
An nalise swallows, before she begins blabbering how terrified she was, how she was knocked
unconscious, how she lost track of time and how she was locked in a dark place.
