All Chapters of THE ALPHA’S RUNAWAY LOVER : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Keith “The coronation will happen a fortnight from now,” I said to Cassian, “I'm finally heeding your advice.” Cassian turned his head sharply to look at me, “When did you decide on this? At the Eastern border? What did Olga say to change your mind?” “Why would she have to say anything?” I asked him, “It was entirely my decision.” “Because you want to protect Maisie?” he asked me. I wanted to lunge at his throat for speaking the truth so blatantly. “It has nothing to do with her,” I said stubbornly. “Would it be so wrong for you to admit that you love her?” Cassian asked me, “Since her return you have not invited her to your room nor have you spent the night with her even once.” My hands were curled up in a fist beside me, “What are you suggesting?” “You are afraid of hurting her,” Cassian said, “that is why you have kept your distance even though you keep her so close.” The look on her face after she had given me head the other day flashed through my mind. It had haunted me

Olga I hated that fearless look in Maisie's eyes. It made me want to reach out with my fingernails and gouge her eyes out. Keith said she was no threat to me becoming Luna, but I did not believe him one bit. After all, she had almost succeeded in the past in having him. To put it more accurately, she'd had him. “I don't think you want to know,” I said to her, “but I do know it will be along the lines of you watching your pathetic son die before your very eyes.” She, however, did not look a bit frightened by my words. She took a step closer in my direction and looked directly into my eyes, “A river accident,” she whispered, “some sleeping pills and he drowned.” I paled instantly.“Where did you hear that?” I demanded, frightened.Maisie only smiled, “You won't be touching my son or your pack will know what you did to become Luna.” She turned around and walked out the door. I almost fainted but Melody was just in time to hold my hand and lead me to a chair.“What is it, Luna? Did

Keith“I am very happy to hear that you have decided to move the coronation forward,” Desmond said, his tone as cheerful as his face, “the pack is indeed in need of a Luna.” “I believe my dear wife will fill that need well,” I said, then turning to Cassian, “The princess must be given official notice of the coronation today. I believe you can make that happen.” “Of course,” replied Cassian. “If it is possible,” I said, “I would like the work at the Eastern border to be complete before the coronation. I think the pack would receive their Luna more positively if that happens…” I was interrupted by someone barging into the meeting with a face filled with a horrified expression. “What do you have to report?” I demanded from the person, “It had better be good or…” “You must come at once, Alpha!” the person's voice was full of terror, “something bad has happened at the pack’s hospital.” I frowned. “Something bad?” I asked, “What is it?” “Speak!” Cassian shouted at the servant. But

Cassian The figure in the black cloak. I suspected that person had something to do with Ruben's death or had witnessed it and had been running from the scene of the crime. If I wanted to confirm my suspicions, I had to find the black cloak. If the figure in the black cloak was responsible for the murder, then that person would have blood residue on it. I walked out of Rueben’s room having found nothing of interest besides the pearl. “I'm not sure how my uncle will react to news of Rueben's death,” Kyle sighed, “he would be devastated.” “He will,” I said weakly, “I think you should be the one to tell him. Before word gets to him.” But I spoke a little too slowly because Adam Locke was walking briskly towards us with a pale face. He looked like he had been pulled out of bed merely looking at the flip flops he had on. “Uncle!” Kyle exclaimed, his tone very surprised. “It's not true, is it?” the old man's voice shook, “my son… I want to see Rueben.” “I'm very sorry, Lord Locke,”

OlgaI watched as Keith carried Maisie out of the large dining hall. I hid my smile behind my glass of water. This was just the beginning for that bitch. I had no plans of stopping until I got rid of her. I looked at my assistant, Melody, and saw that her face was pale. I was disappointed in her and I let her know by glaring at her. “We live in grim times indeed,” someone at the table said, “Rueben was such a nice man. He did not deserve to die like that.”The comment came from the gamma's wife, Lady Priscilla. She was worth a friendly banter with so I smiled and replied to her, “Indeed. I hope they find out who it is.”The gamma, meanwhile, appeared deep in thought. The man was clearly troubled. He looked like he had seen a ghost. “With the coronation being so soon…” Priscilla's voice trailed off, “do you think you shall push the date forward?” I tried not to strike her with my words. “I don't think there's a need to shift the date,” I said, “it is very sad what has happened, but
