The Twin Alphas Warrior Luna (RYN) -
Warrior 152
Chapter 152 THEON
On our way back to the hospital, Miro and I tried our father's line and instead got his secretary.
"I'm afraid the King is out of town." The middle-aged woman said. He travelled last night with Beta Dutton."
I frowned. "Where did he go?"
"The South, your Highness. Prince Olives's body was requested
I pinched the bridge of my nose. I had absolutely.forgotten about Olive's death and how he was torn to pieces by mutants.
This is going to be such a terrible mess.
"Fine. Let me know when he lands." I instructed before ending the call.
"I'm surprised Dad had the chance to banish Ryn before his flight."
I looked out the window, trying to imagine how the whole thing went down. Chelsea was able to tell us what she knew, but she wasn't there when it happened..
According to her words, my father had informed her that Ryn had been taken care of and banished out of town and she had to be in my room, ready to make me compliant. Now we were on our way back to the hospital to really replace out exactly what happened and if there were any clues as to where Ryn went immediately she left.
The moment we arrived, I went straight to Healer Kwan's office while Miro paid a visit to security.
Getting to his office, I didn't wait for his secretary to be informed before barging in.
Kwan jerked up in his seat, his eyes wide in alarm and when he saw me coming in with his flustered secretary floundering behind, his brows knitted in confusion. "Your Highness." He bowed. "What's wrong?"
I arched a brow. "What happened to Ryn?"
His face dawned with realization. Then he began to stutter. "Your Highness, I don't know-"
"Before you lie," I said, shoving my hands in my pockets. "Know that Chelsea already told me the basics. She mentioned you as an eyewitness. So please, don't make me lose the modicum of respect I have garnered for you over the years. What. Happened. To. Ryn?" The Healer grabbed his handkerchief and wiped his sweaty forehead. "The King forced me not to say a word. He put me under oath."
I shrugged. "Well, I don't care. You know we can still defy oaths at a cost."
His eyes widened in horror. "Your Highness, I could die!"
Did I care?
I searched within and realized I didn't but at the same time, this isn't who I am. This isn't who I am supposed to be.
I sent a mindlink to Miro. "What's the progress with the footage

Chapter 152
"Father made them scrub everything that happened. Nothing cabe done. I only have one footage from Ryn leaving the hospital and I am on my way to you right now."
I sighed and took a seat. "Let's wait for Miro." I told the elderly man. "If what he brings doesn't satisfy me, your life will be the one on the line."
The Healer wiped his forehead again, and I went on to attend to business emails. Shortly after, Miro came in with a laptop and propped it up for me. After playing the footage, I witnessed Ryn staggering out of the hospital with blood staining her clothes and hands. My heart rate picked up. Is that her blood? Was she hurt?
My gaze slid to Kwan, who stood in a corner like a wet possum, so I turned the laptop to face him. "Care to explain?"
His forehead creased in worry. "Your Highness-" He stuttered, shaking his head.
"I will hurt you." I said, suddenly, and even Miro turned to me in alarm. "I have no empathy right now, so it's either you confess or I force the answers out of you. Which one will it be?" Kwan looked to Miro who folded his arms defensively. "Sorry, but I'm with him on this one. It's Ryn" He said matter-of-
mind. factly, and I was glad someone was backing me up in this because I think I am losing my
The Healer sighed before going to his office drawer and bringing out a bottle of vodka and a glass.
Opening the cap, he poured a generous amount into the glass before downing it all in one gulp. Then he took a deep breath and explained what happened in the wee hours of this morning
By the time he was done, every orifice on his face was leaking blood and I, on the other hand, was beyond perplexed, while Miro stiffened beside me.
Ryn is my mate?
"That's false." I said to the Healer. "Second chance mates don't exist."
"Second chance mates are rare, but not to the point of extinction, your Highness. They exist!"
I frowned, then looked at my brother, who seemed lost in thought. "Are you sure it's not my twin?"
Miro's eyes cut to me in surprise, then he turned to Kwan as if he wanted answers too, but the Healer shook his head.
"I know what I saw," Kwan said a little forcefully, coughing out blood. "That's why you have her pendant around your neck!" He pointed and Miro turned to look at it. It's almost like he was seeing it for the first time. "We caught her kissing you." We both turned to look at the Healer.
"She seemed really happy to have you as her mate."
All I could do was blink.
Everything else was blank. Then my brain booted.
"You should call for help." I stared into space before my eyes slid to him. He nodded and shortly after, a team of three Healers came into the office and took Kwan away.
Now it was just Miro, and I in the office, bathed in silence.
"Congratulations." Miro eventually said, his voice heavy with something I couldn't quite understand. "You both would make a great couple."
Mon,

An involuntary scoff came out of me as I imagined the whole thing.
Ryn and I as inates. It looks good. We look good together and I know damn well, it would feel good but...."I had assumed it would be you if the case ever arose." Miro scoffed. "Why?"
"Cause you're the better twin? Plus, you never found your true mate."
Miro sighed and went to Kwan's table. Pouring himself a drink, he threw back a shot and barely winced at the burn. Then he sat in Kwan's seat and raised his legs on the table. "You don't need to worry about me. Maybe I'm meant to be gay."
I threw him a glare before a smile tugged at my lips. I don't mind if Miro's mate is a male or female. I just want to see him with someone that is his own for once. I have never seen him experience that kind of happiness before and it makes me feel awful. Why me? Why do I deserve a second chance when he has never gotten any? And then Ryn. Does she deserve someone like me?
Sometimes, I feel the Moon Goddess sucks at assigning mates. She should retire.
"What made you say I'm the better twin?" Miro suddenly piped up.
I glanced at him, then swallowed and looked away. "I am a bad person with sick sexual fantasies. I don't think Ryn would want to be with me."
"Why don't you let her decide?" Miro said, placing his arms behind his head as he wiggled in his seat. "I have been with so many women in my life and it's always the ones you underestimate that are the most freaky."
I remembered the time Ryn wanted to be watched via camera. In that moment, she had become just like Elizabeth, who had welcomed and even craved every twisted part of me.
Still, I think I need help and as soon as I replace Ryn, I'll consider therapy.
Just then, my phone rang, and it turned out to be Adam. Instantly, I slipped into Boss mode.
"What's the update?"
"We found footage of the car that picked up Ryn from the Cresswell residence. We are trailing it through traffic cams, hoping to see where it leads."
"Good, Keep me updated."
"Yes sir. Uhm one more thing?"
"Yes?"
"The letter Ryn wrote to me, can I have it?"
Miro, who had been on his phone, raised his eyes to mine and he frowned, shaking his head.
"It's under evidence for now. Once we are done analyzing it for clues, you can have it.",
There was silence on the other end, before Adam sighed. "Yes sir. He replied and ended the call. "So
what's the plan now?" Miro askedet
and when I noticed something on
my
phone, I rose to my feet. "We are going to Sadie's to read the letters
and then we are taking a trip outside
the city."
Chapter 159
Miro's brows pulled together, "Why? Where are we going?"
I showed him the new headline stating Billie's upcoming interview. "We are going to protect Ryn."
