THE ALPHA’S BROKEN LUNA

Hardin’S POV

Reign returned looking murderous and that could only mean that the conversation with her father didn’t go well.

I remember the last time I met her after she just had a conversation with her father and I what I did aches my heart every time I think of it.

I taunted her, called her the worst and even seized her apple.

I was such a bastard.

If only I knew how evil that man is. He is the devil’s incarnate and I’m going to make sure he suffers!

“Why are we here again?” She asks clearly annoyed.

Whatever it is she discussed with her father, it wasn’t good because it has put it her in a very sour mood. I’m even afraid to talk to her right now.

“Are you alright?”

“Do I look like I am?” She fires back and I just shake my head.

“No, wanna talk about it?” I ask concerned.

“No!”

“Did he say mean things to you?”

“What do you care?”

Great!

“I care about the fzct you are in a sour mood right now. It bothers me”

“The last time you met me like this, you called me the worst. You ever took my apple, remember?”

“Clearly, I was an ass”

“No, you were just you. Stop blaming the ass”

“Reign, your sarcasm is overwhelming”

“Why? Thank you!”

“There we go again” I say as I let out a frustrated sigh. She’s actually impossible to deal with.

The Moon goddess just had to fine me the most stubborn mate in the world to tame.

“So, why exactly am I in your office?”

“I’m waiting for Miguel and Clark to show up so we can think out how to get the truth out of your father”

“I don’t want to be part of this”

“I don’t want you to be either, Miguel asked me to bring you here”

“Why?”Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

“I don’t know, he refused to say”

“I’m only staying because I trust Miguel.”

“So, you don’t trust me?”

“What do you think?”

“Negative!”

“Perfect!”

“Oh come on, how can you not trust me instead?” I ask flinging my hands in the air to express my frustration.

“You very well know the reason for that Hardin, I don’t need to tell you”

“You are always striking that nerve!”

Just then, my office door creaks open and Both Miguel and Clark walk in and what she does takes me off guard. She abruptly sits up from her chair and flies on Carl who takes her into his arms and swirls her around like she weighed nothing.

Touching display!

“Carl I miss you!”

“I miss you more baby, how have you been?”

“Horrible!” She laments as she disengages from his hug.

“Look who is jealous” Adam chips in from nowhere and I just roll my eyes at him

“No I’m not!” I bark in my mind.

“Yes you are, she has never been so excited to see you before, I think this should get you alarmed”

“Leave me the hell alone Adam!” I warn and block him away.

What he just said is true through. I’m actually jealous of the fact she is so excited to see her cousin. I wish one day she gets so excited to me too. I can’t wait for the day when I’ll hold her in my arms and swirl her around.

I just can’t wait.

We all walk over the sitting are and take our various seats and I almost die of jealousy when Reign wraps up herself in her brother’s protective arms.

Miguel who notices what’s going on just laughs in silence as he winks at me and I roll my eyes. He’s going to give me a great lecture after this.

“So, I spoke with your father again, but he won’t say anything reasonable. He keeps denying the fact that he did he had that conversation with her”

“Dad is never going to paint Wilma red, forget it.”

“So, since he has refused to talk, we might as well use other strategies to get to the root of this matter”

“Which are?”

“Remember, the main goal is to find who actually killed Wilma so he or she can be punished”

“Exactly”

“And we can do that even if he doesn’t want to admit that fact he had that discussion with Wilma”

“And, how can that be done?” I ask as I lean forward. That has picked my interest and I want to know more. The earlier we get to the root of the matter, the better.

“So…” He opens a bag and takes out photos from in and place on the table “These are some photos of the scratches I took on Wilma’s body when she was found. You can see the nature of the scratches, these are some very powerful scratches” He explains.

“These marks can only be inflicted by someone who has some killing experience, not by an eighteen year old who had been locked up all her life” Carl adds as he looks carefully at the photos.

“So, what’s the essence of these pictures?” I ask confused. I don’t know what they are getting at.

“I have always known Reign didn’t kill Wilma and I have I always waited for this day to prove it. Hardin, I know you now believe that Reign didn’t kill Wilma and I want you to know that you shouldn’t believe that just because you have fallen in love with her or because she is your mate, I want you to see prove that she is actually innocent”

“O…Kay” I say nodding and he rises up from his seat and takes off his long sleeved jacket and walks over to Reign.

We all just stay still looking at him like he has lost his mind. Once he is close to Reign, he lets his exposed left arm partially transform into a hind limb and he stretches it towards Reign who shakes in fear.

“Miguel you are scaring her” I caution.

“Sorry about that Luna, but that’s not my intension”

“Why are you giving me your arm” Reign asks frightened.

“I want you to give me a scratch with your paws” He says and we’ll look at him in awe.

“I’m not going to hurt you! No!” Reign denies flatly.

“I just want us all to confirm something”

“There has to be another way to do this Miguel, I don’t really have to hurt you”

“This is the only way Luna, besides it’s going to heal Soo enough. Please do this” He insists and she turns to look at me and I nod.

I don’t want this either, but I trust that Miguel knows exactly what he is doing.

“You asked for it” She says as she lets her right hand shapeshift into paws and Adam starts jumping in my when he sees Lyla’s paws.

“Adam you are a lovesick puppy” I say in my mind and he just ignores me and keeps jumping in excitement.

The next thing I hear is a growl from Miguel as Reign gives him a dangerous scratch on his arm and he turns to face me.

“Look at this scratch on my arm and the one in the photo.” He instructs and both Carl and I do as told and indeed, indeed, he is right.

These are two different scratches from two different wolves.

Reign did not Kill Wilma.

Someone else did and had her framed up.

“Miguel you are right” I confirm ask I look up at Reign. “Reign did not kill Wilma!” I announce and immediately, Reign gets up from the couch and storms out of the room.

She is angry.

I stand up to follow her but Miguel stops me.

“I need to talk to her” I scold as I try to push him away but he only holds me firmer.

“She needs some time to think”

“No! I need to apologize to her”

“And you are going to do that, just not now. Sit down bro. You’ll only piss her off the more if you try to talk to her right now”

He advices and I sit back on the couch.

This is not good at all.

Sweet Moon goddess, please tell me what to do.
