BAPTER 30 Not Fated Mates A*nâs heart sank as she realized that Alpha Nocturne had gotten all the way through the building and actually made it into the area where her offices were located.
The fact that he was here at all was going to spread through the rumor mill at the company building like wildfire.
She groaned internally just imagining what sort of interrogation she was going to face from her father.
She knew that her father disliked Alpha Nocturne, she had heard far too many rants over dinners together to think otherwise.
Now, he would want to know exactly why he was in his building and when he found out it was because of A*n⦠well, she shuddered to imagine the fallout.*
At least she no longer had to worry about a wall of silence waiting for her when she got home and the sneaky tricks of her stepmother and stepsister.
âWhat are you doing here, Adam?â She asked with a sigh.
He rushed over to her and stopped abruptly in front of her, just short of taking hold of her, but she could feel his eyes raking over her in an attempt to a*ses her for injuries.
âAre you hurt?â He asked gruffly.
His wolf sat just behind his eyes, glaring out menacingly.
âReally, Iâm fine. Iâm sorry to have bothered you with all of this, I know you must be busy. It was Maeve, she can be a little⦠willful at times.â
Adam frowned.
âThatâs not the version of events that I heardâ¦â
âNo? Well⦠you should learn to treat me as your Luna, shouldnât you? I handled it. Itâs no big deal.â
His eyes found the bruise marks around A*nâs neck and he growled.
âThat doesnât look like nothing, or that you handled it effectively. Who did this?â
âReally, Adam itâsâ¦â
âI asked you a question, Luna. If I am to trust you then you need to be honest with me, as I will be with you.â He interrupted fiercely.
A*n scowled at him defensively.
âI donât know why youâre so worked upâ¦â
â
âAnswer the question, A*nâ¦â He growled as he took a few steps closer until his face was almost touching her own.
He wrapped hi round her as if embracing his mate and murmured quietly in her ear.
âI need you to tell me, A*n. If you are disobedient⦠it wonât go unpunishedâ¦â
A shiver of anticipation ran through her body and she forcibly suppressed a whimper as Maeve purred happily inside her.
grateful.
âItâs open!â A*n yelled as she placed her phone on the desk.
After a few seconds, the door opened and Alpha Adam Nocturne marched into the room with his Beta Allen and 5 burly men following behind.
