I Am The Luna

ZAIA.

I lean back in my office seat, moving my chair slightly from side to side as I stare at the ceiling.

Atticus is working on the file. We both were certain there must be a clue in it, and he thinks Sebastian somehow sent it. As much as the thought of him stings, if he is there for Sia, then maybe he does want to help us.

Who knows?

I turn as the door opens and Justin and another, guard bring in the man I have been waiting for.

“What is this!?” Ethan asks as he is forced into the seat opposite my desk, his wrists shackled. ” What have I done wrong, alpha?” Confusion is clear on his face, but there’s a nervousness in his eyes, too.

“Relax, if you haven’t done anything wrong, nothing will happen to you,” I reassure him emotionlessly. “I just have some questions that you have the answers to.”

“They injected me with something and I feel sick,” Ethan says, his face pale as he tugs at his cuffs.

“It was just a precaution. Who knows how connected you are to your wolf? Or what abilities you might have that you have kept hidden? It will not harm you.

The mind link.

I don’t want to risk it when I can’t trust anyone, I wonder if it was being used as a means of communication from within the pack for those who are in cahoots with one another.

I look across at Ethan. Since Atticus showed me that video and I was able to identify him, my mind has been ridden with thoughts and questions.

And they are questions that Ethan will have to answer; willingly, or through the alpha command, the choice is his.

“Ok, Alpha Zaia, please tell me what is wrong? What have I done?” he asks imploringly, as his gaze flits to his cuffs, then back to me.

The guards test the cuffs, yanking at them before they give me a nod.

“Leave us,” I order.
