From Rougue To Luna novel Chapter 65

The door opened to reveal a larger room than I was expecting. It was a wood lined study, with a huge glass top desk. The walls were lined with floor to ceiling book shelves and plush furniture was cluttered in the middle around a small table. My eyes fell on Dominic who sat with his forearms leaned against the desktop. His blue eyes snapped up to meet mine and I felt my heart stall for just a moment before I forced it to beat normal. His eyes looked so much like hers.

"Alpha Dominic." I nodded with respect as he stood and offered me the same before sitting back down into his large leather chair.

He nodded to the chair beside me and I followed his instruction, sitting down slowly into the seat before trying to sit back into the chair. It took everything I had not to nervously bounce my leg and show my rush and concern. I needed to get this done quickly and efficiently, but most of all, discreetly.

"Thank you for seeing me on such short notice." I said after a moment.

He nodded shortly and leaned forward. "What is it that you want from me Alpha Everrett? Your Delta said it was important to me as much as you." His eyes swirled with curiosity as he grinned deviously over the glass at me. "I must admit, you got my attention if nothing else."

Rhett's POV

I laughed tightly and sat forward, resting my forearms against my knees. "It's the truth. I have something important I feel that you need to know concerning not only your Beta, but yourself as well."

He sat quietly, waiting for me to continue as his eyebrows rose.

"First and foremost, your Beta crossed onto my land yesterday morning and attacked two of my she-wolves, leaving one drugged and unconscious in the woods." I said firmly.

Dominic straightened and set his jaw as his eyes began to harden. "I see. And you have proof of this?"

I nodded and continued smoothly. "Beta Cage came to my office not very long ago, alerting me that he wished to claim the she-wolf he'd marked several years ago, but she'd left him and joined my pack of her own free will. Lili claimed he'd been abusive to her for years and she fled in fear for her life. They did not complete the mate bond, and so I saw no reason to turn her over to him without her consent. She showed these memories to the leader of my she-wolves Ivy outside, and she'd be happy to verify this for you as well."

He let out a quiet breath and sat back in his chair, listening intently. "I may need to accept that offer once we've finished."

Dominic let out a low growl as his eyes narrowed. "That isn't possible." He said cautiously.

I let out a breath and shook my head. "I know it seems that way, but I believe it's true. Her mother was Olivia Walker."

Dominic froze, watching me for any sign of betrayal. I held his strong gaze and matched the hardness as he leaned forward, inspecting my heart rate most likely as I sat silently. "You said was." He said finally.

I nodded and took a slow breath. "She passed around six years ago. It was unexpected. Lili was crushed. Her full name is actually Thalia Walker."

"I knew Olivia only briefly, but I would never have had a child with her. It isn't possible. But I'll investigate your other claims immediately. Did you come with a plan in mind?" His words were short and I could sense the wheels turning within his mind.
