I Am The Luna

Chapter 96

VALERIE.

“Why didn’t you go with them?” I ask Sebastian. He has been sitting on the sofa, on edge the entire time, a deep frown on his face and his aura is overwhelming. Even the children kept their distance from him and so I had taken them upstairs quickly.

Although I myself have been channelling my aura and trying to draw on it, it is still not as strong as his, although I am part of the triquetra.

However, I have been working on drawing upon it, trying to become one with my inner strength, but Sebastian… He sits there with this effortlessly deadly aura that sends a chill down my spine. How in touch with his wolf is he?

He’s angry. Although he says nothing, I can sense it, clinging to him like the shadows cling to the dark corners of a room. He doesn’t respond to my question, and I walk over to him.

I have just put the children to bed, but I am concerned. Why do I feel there’s more to his mood than the others going and why didn’t he go with them?

“The Alpha Sebastian I know wouldn’t let Zaia out there alone,” I say quietly, taking a seat on the sofa opposite him and crossing my legs.

His piercing eyes turn to me. “You have been out of it for several years. You don’t know me, nor do you know Zaia.”

His words sting but I’m not a fool. “Oh, I beg to differ. I know my girl. She is brave, loving, and strong. I know she can handle this, but I also don’t see you letting her go alone.”

“I didn’t let her go alone. She has company.’ “It’s not the same as you going with her, and you know that,” I say, watching him sharply. “We all know how dangerous this meeting is.”

Our eyes meet and I feel uneasy. “You are a smart woman, Valerie. Why are you trying to push me for an answer you already know?” he replies coldly, and his words are like a weight suddenly dropped upon me, making me feel dread. No… I refuse to believe anything else…

I stare at him, now realising he’s in turmoil…
