Chapter 0185“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 hisfingers 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 didinvite Annette. I don’t know ifshe 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 thatantidote, no matter what.”“She will. We’ll figure something out.” I promise before I slowly tug away, not wanting this moment toend. “I love you.”+25 BONUS“I love you too.” Giving him one final smile, I turn and force myself to walk away, leaving him in thisplaceThe mother and daughter duo now look at each other before looking at me with utmost confusion. If mymood wasn’t so off, I’d replace 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 feelready 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 inattendance 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 nalisewhines, 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, heis 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.273They both stare at me stunned and gobsmacked.“You- you mean Luna standing in as Alpha?” Annette splutters, laughing despite the fact she looks likeshe’s about to be sick.+255 BONUS“No, Sebastian made me the Alpha, and there were many witnesses,” I explain, crossing my legs. “Idon’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!” Annalise 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 guardsposted 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 severalyears 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 youwere 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 knockedunconscious, how she lost track of time and how she was locked in a dark place.+25 BONUS
