: Chapter 77

Azriel stood next to me and Alpha Mars and his son Grayson were standing a few feet in front of us. I thought that when I see Grayson, I’d feel something for him but there was nothing in my heart. It was almost like someone I knew from the past that I didn’t care to know or talk to. Next to Grayson was Stacy Steven. There was something wrong with her, she wasn’t so confident or as good-looking as she was, and the spark in her was gone.

‘Grayson already dimmed it, that was quick,’ Kira giggled. It was obvious that they weren’t on good terms.

‘Some marriages will do that to you,’ I sighed.

‘Well, she deserves it,’

‘Bad girl, don’t rejoice in other people’s misfortune,’ I said playfully.

Beta Steven was standing next to them, and I groaned all while my wolf growled, he looked at me with malevolence in his eyes just like his wife. I had a bone to pick with this couple and I wanted to find out exactly what happened, he had a hand in the planting of false evidence and once I’m proven right, he’ll pay dearly. My eyes landed on the twins; Debbie and Cara, they looked at me in envy but I only rolled my eyes and didn’t look at them twice.

It was Alpha Mars that stepped forward first, he bowed deeply to me and I was shocked, however, I didn’t show it at all. My facial expression was stoic.

‘Luna Queen Adira, it’s an honor to have you here again,’ he said softly and everyone bowed to me. Even the common folk who were watching did the same. I almost took a step back from their actions. ‘ Alpha Azriel, it is our great pleasure to have you here today,’ Like before, they bow to him.

‘Alpha Mars, we are here to discuss something with you and we only hope for your cooperation,’ I said firmly, he squinted his eyes in surprise and glanced back at his beta, then nodded to me.

We went into his office, but this time, with only Alpha Mars, beta Steven, and Grayson, I felt his eyes on me but I didn’t look at him.

We got situated in the large office and Alpha Mars smiled at me, all this was weird and I didn’t want to get familiar with any of them after how shitty they treated me in the past so I didn’t smile back.

‘So, how may we assist you, Luna Adira?’

‘My parents, I want all records of them,’ I said. That was the last thing he was thinking I’d ask clearly as his eyes widen a little. My ears perked up and I heard the beta’s heart pound against his chest. He was worried.

‘Well, your parents were private people and I knew nothing about them,’ he shrugged, getting comfortable in his chair. I exhaled and looked him dead in the eyes.

‘You can’t know nothing, you’re the Alpha of this pack and must know everyone,’ I gritted my teeth.

‘Well, we don’t know much about them,’ Beta Steven said in the corner he was standing in and I glared at him, making him uncomfortable as his demeanor changed. The Alpha and beta were resolute about not speaking about my parents.

‘Are you trying to upset me?’ Azriel growled, making them flinch. They didn’t meet his gaze as he was too intimidating. I put my hand over him gently, shaking my head.

‘Alpha Mars, get up,’ I commanded and he stood up. He looked perplexed. I read that being an Alpha female I have the power to control even the strongest Alphas.

‘H-how, what are you-‘

‘Shut up, beta Steven,’ I ordered and he was silent.

‘Sit,’ I ordered the Alpha and he obliged.

‘Stand up,’ he did as I said. I continued ordering him to sit and stand until it finally registered who was in charge here.

‘Adira- I… I how,’

‘I didn’t ask you to speak, Grayson,’ I barked harshly.

‘Alpha Mars, sit down, and now, I’ll ask again; Tell me everything you know about my parents or you will have no pack left to lead,’ I growled. Alpha Mars’s lips were trembling, trying to fight my command to no avail.
