I Am The Luna (Moonlight Muse) novel Chapter 113

35 A Questioning or I Am The Luna Chapter 113 By Moonlight Muse
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.

“Are you alright to be alone, Alpha?” Justin asks.

I cock a brow. “Yes, I can handle myself. Thank you, Justin. Please shut the door on your way out.” I say. “1

He lowers his head before checking the cuffs and leaving the room.

“I have some questions, Ethan, and you will answer them truthfully. You will speak nothing but the truth. Do you understand?” I ask, my alpha command rippling through my voice.

I see his eyes flicker as his wolf surfaces, and he is forced to submit to me.

“Yes… Alpha,” he swallows, and I sit back in my seat, crossing my legs.

“Then I will cut to the chase and start at the beginning. Why did you meet Annalise at Atticus’s pack on New Year’s Eve, when you shouldn’t have been there?” I ask.

It didn’t make sense to me. Annalise and Ethan were both from this pack and why would an ordinary driver be at the party that was for VIP guests only? What if Sebastian spotted him? Or Jai or Valerie?

Why did he risk meeting her there that night of all nights?

These are questions that only he will have answers to. His face drains of colour and he moves his hand only for the cuff to stop him.

“I want an answer,” I say coldly- “I just…” his face is pale as he fights the command.

“ANSWER ME!” I shout, slamming my hand on the table, and making him jump. My own heart

is thumping as I glare across at him.

“I was never meant to meet her! She motioned that she wanted to speak to me.”

“Oh?” I hate how he thinks he can get away

with this. “Why, when she could have just

spoken to you here, although you two have no business to talk to one another? Considering the situation and your position as a driver of the King family.”

“She was concerned about some things and Sebastian was watching everyone,” he says. He’s broken out in cold sweat but it’s only irritating me further.

“And what exactly were you doing at Atticus’s pack that night and how did you get inside?” I ask sharply. “Answer me!”

He flinches. “I had a pass! I was there to deliver the poison! She demanded to meet me!” He blurts, his face full of panic as he realises what he’s just said.

The poison…

“Poison. Who did you deliver the poison to?” I snarl.

“I don’t know their name, believe me! My duty was to deliver it, that’s it!” He says, he’s shaking now, but I do believe him. He cannot lie under the alpha command.

“Poison that you knew would harm me and my unborn pups. You knew that.”

“I had to obey my master,” he says quietly.

“And who is your master?”

He opens his mouth, but nothing comes out.

Not that again!

“Tell me!” I snarl, not caring about the consequences.
