Chapter 0336
Luna Hannah! Alpha Noah is in a meeting,” the receptionist called out, but I didn’t care. To hell with meetings. This was important.
I slammed through the glass doors leading to the conference room, where Noah was indeed in the middle of a meeting with several of his business associates. Their heads all turned to me, eyes widening in surprise as I came to a screeching halt in front of the long conference table, panting and heaving like a madwoman.
Noah looked up, surprise and annoyance flashing across his face. “Hannah, I’m busy-”
“We need to talk. Now.” I grabbed him by the tie, forcefully yanking him out of his chair with a strength I didn’t know I had. I could hear the other men chuckling and muttering as I dragged Noah out of the room,
but I didn’t care.
Their voices faded as I pulled Noah into the hallway.
Once we were alone, Noah pulled away from me, straightening his tie. His face was flushed with anger, his green eyes flashing. Maybe yesterday, I would have crumpled at the sight of him, writhing and half- begging him to have me right there, he looked so Goddess–damned handsome in his gray suit and deep blue tie. But not today.
“What the hell is your problem?” he hissed, glancing back at the conference room door.
In response, I thrust my phone at him, the damning post displayed on the screen. “This,” I said, my voice shaking. “This is my problem.”
Noah’s face paled as he read the post, and his eyes widened into saucers as he listened to the audio. When it finished, he looked up at me with an expression that looked like he had just seen a ghost.
“Hannah,” he said, his voice low and controlled, “what the hell is this?”
I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself even though the hallway felt like it was spinning around me. I explained everything.
When I was finished, Noah’s jaw clenched, a muscle ticking in his cheek. “And you didn’t think to tell me about this sooner?” he hissed.
I shook my head, feeling tears prick at the corners of my eyes. “I’m sorry. I should have, but it just… it got lost in everything else. I had other, bigger things to deal with.” The excuse sounded weak even to my own.
ears.
Noah ran a hand through his hair, his frustration evident. But then his expression changed, becoming more focused. “How did they get this audio?” he asked, his voice sharp. “That was a private moment in your bedroom.”
The realization hit me like a truck, making my stomach lurch. “Oh, Goddess,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “There must be… there must be cameras or microphones or something in my room.”
Noah’s face hardened, his eyes glinting dangerously. He pulled out his phone, quickly dialing a number. Scott,” he said when his Beta answered. “I need you to go to Hannah’s room and scan for hidden cameras or microphones. Tear the fucking place apart if you have to. Now.”

Those words weren’t directed at me, but even I flinched at the sound of dark, grim authority in his voice.
He hung up, then turned back to me. I tensed, wondering if I was about to get a scolding of a lifetime for not telling him sooner. I certainly deserved it. I should have told him before it got this bad.
But to my surprise, his expression softened slightly as he took in my terrified face. “It’s going to be okay, Hannah,” he said, his voice gentler now. “We’ll handle this. I promise.”
I nodded, not trusting myself to speak. My throat felt tight, like I was being choked by invisible hands.
Noah, seeing this, stepped forward and pulled me into a tight hug. I stiffened, my arms slack at my sides, stunned by the sudden affection.
