The Perfect Luna

Chapter 67. In Charge 

She came back to Gideon and he spread his arms to take her into his lap as she showed him the caller ID. She could feel his whole body going rigid under hers.

“What does he want?” the lycan king grunted, wrapping his arms possessively around his

still naked mate.

“Let’s find out,” she giggled, leaning into him and answering the call.

“Ri,” she heard her ex-husband’s voice and couldn’t believe that he still had the audacity to call her that. What was he thinking? “Thank you for picking up,” he sounded slightly lost. They were not together anymore, but she still knew everything there was to know about him. Something was wrong.

“How can I help you, Alpha Thorn?” she asked in a business-like manner, dry, cold but

respectful.

“Help is the right word,” he sighed, as if it was hard for him to speak, “Help is exactly what I need from you, Riannon.” 

“Wow, that was fast,” her lips curved into a smirk, “You had your own pack for one day and you already need my help?”

“It’s complicated,” Brayden was getting more agitated.

“Just cut straight to the chase,” she suggested, giving her mate a disapproving look as he was slowly starting to caress her body again and making her feel things that she didn’t want to feel when on the phone with her ex.

“Something happened right before you came to my pack,” The Alpha on the other side of the line continued, “I checked the footage from my land and saw Roxy and Harper taking a walk when they were attacked and kidnapped by two masked guys.”

She was happy that he couldn’t see her rolling her eyes. Just what did she see in him in the past? Ria looked at her mate and realised by assessing his facial expression that he was thinking the same thing. Daily new chapters in www.noveljar.com

“Seriously?” she did her best not to laugh, “You seriously believe that?” “I saw it with my own eyes,” Brayden sounded confident.

“Very well,” Riannon snorted, “what is your so-called mate and the other is your sister. What does it possibly have to do with me?”

“I was getting to that,” it seemed like this conversation was hard for him, “The kidnappers contacted me and they want to meet.”

“Go meet them then,” she tracked her shoulders, “Again, why do you call me?”

“You do realise it’s a trap, right?” She tried to keep the serious tone but Gideon’s hand went all the way down between her thighs and made her bite her lip. He knew how to play her like an instrument now and the mate bond was on his side.

“Of course, I do,” her ex gritted his teeth, “It’s always a trap. But I still have to try and
