“Mr. Reign. What a surprise! I thought you were in the city.” 

“Well, I’m here now,” the alpha said, his tone full of delight. “And I’m glad you are too. Miss 

Deere needs a ride.” 

He kept his eyes on Megan as he addressed the human. 

“Could you do me a favor and get her to Pineapple’s or any other comfy hotel around.” 

“Sure! It’s my pleasure, sir,” Jude replied with a little too much glee. 

Megan couldn’t bear it. “Jude, could you please give us a moment?” 

The human frowned, waiting for his boss‘ boss to okay the request. When he didn’t signal, he moved only a foot away as Megan started to speak again. 

“Alpha, I don’t understand. The other directors are staying at the resort –”

“Don’t pretend you don’t already know why I don’t want you there, Megan! My mother was right. You should remain here for now. But I don’t want you near them!” 

Them? Who the hell was them? Megan was too angry and hurt to fully dissect the remark. 

“B–but the Luna said I could stay there,” she tried to argue. 

“To keep an eye on Sara?” he snapped. “Why would you even want to do that? You hate each other now. And I know why she hates you, but I still can’t figure out why YOU hate her.” 

Was he serious right now? He really couldn’t tell why from all the times that she threw herself at him? The cluelessness in his tone gave Meg courage to mouth away. 

“I thought you already knew, alpha. Sara turned out to be what my mother warned me about, I told you. She lied to me for years –” 

“Years?” He cut her off. 

“Are you sure about those nunbers? Cuz she and I were together for only a few months, not years.” 

How could he not know that the mere fact that he, Alpha of the Forest Moon, was sleeping with that lowly she–wolf was more than enough cause for her hatred? 

Megan decided to try something. “A few months, huh? That means she was probably sneaking off to see someone else long before you came into the picture.”

As she spoke, the look he gave her made her life flash before her. But an evil smile replaced the death stare quickly. 

“You almost got me there,” he said with a brief laugh. 

“Then it occured to me that one, what you’re implying is not even possible. Two, it doesn’t 

matter. She gave herself to me FIRST! Not to any of those guys before me.” 

His smile grew soft and distant. Various emotions play in his eyes as he spoke. 

Megan’s stomach turned at the sight. Her ire rose. 

“You know, alpha. Yes, we hate each other now. But I’m not entirely to blame for the way our friendship crashed! You had a hand in that.” 

“Well, look at that. Not so modest today, huh, Megan dear,” he mocked. 

“It’s the truth!” She went on. “About my mistakes, I have apologized many times. I was drunk when I… harrassed you. I would never beg anyone for sex, whether he’s Alpha or ruler of worlds. I am the noble daughter of Beta Reginald Deere!” 

“Good for 

you, noble. And listen, I don’t hold that against you. She–wolves do that to me all the time. Yes, you were friends with my female, but we were broken up and she was out of the picture. You were drunk and horny. Got carried away. I even hoped you eventually found someone to take care of your needs afterwards. Did you? Don’t answer. I don’t care! 

You know what I hold against you though?” 

He leaned menacingly close and she shrank back. His eyes took on a shimmer that meant his wolf was close to the surface and irritated. 

“It was you who told my mother about me and Sara! You followed her and dared to take pictures of us! Are you gonna deny it?” 

Megan was out of words. It was stupid to bring up this conversation. She realized it now. The hostility oozing out of the alpha was starting to overwhelm her when something else caught his attention. 

His gaze left her abruptly and rested on the Ink black Lexus driving past. As Meg’s eyes followed his, her heart stopped. Her blood ran cold at the sight of the little boy screaming and waving from the car:
