Abandoned Luna Now Untouchable (Cecilia) novel Chapter 131

Chapter 131: Chapter 131 Vanished bodies

Cecilia’s pov

"Who called the police?" I asked, my voice cutting through the tension like a knife.

My question hung in the air, unanswered.

But as I watched Alpha Xavier approach, his expression a careful mask of concern, understanding dawned on me.

Of course. It all made sense now.

His presence here could mean only one thing: Luna Dora had told him everything. She must have traced the orchard, discovered that the White women had come to Boulder, and rushed here with Alpha Xavier in tow, unable to resist witnessing the drama unfold - and perhaps adding fuel to the fire herself.

"Cecilia," Alpha Xavier said, his voice dripping with artificial warmth.

Mrs. White spotted Alpha Xavier and her entire demeanor transformed, as if she’d just seen salvation walking toward her in designer shoes.

"Xavier!" she cried desperately. "Please help Cici! Cecilia was trying to kill her! My daughter’s hurt - she needs a hospital right away!"

I slid my gaze toward her, cold as ice. Harper, Tang, and Levan joined me, all of us staring at Mrs. White like she’d just sprouted a second head. Did she really think Alpha Xavier had come to rescue them?

Even if she didn’t know that the Green family probably wished Cici would disappear into thin air, the police were already here - which meant someone had called them at least thirty minutes ago.

That meant Alpha Xavier had arrived while Nicole was trying to kill Cici.

And he had stood by and watched.

Alpha Xavier looked at the two women on the ground and let out a chilling laugh. "That’s not exactly what I witnessed. I suggest you stop making false accusations."

Mrs. White froze, her mouth hanging open in disbelief.

The paramedics discovered the two injured women and, without bothering to untangle the mess of accusations, called out, "Let’s move! Get them to the hospital, now!"

When Mrs. White tried to follow, an officer blocked her path. "Ma’am, you need to come with us to the station."

"Xavier..." Mrs. White turned to him, still clinging to the desperate hope that he would help. "Please go to the hospital with Cici. She’ll be terrified alone."

"I’m afraid I can’t," Alpha Xavier replied, his voice devoid of emotion. "As a witness to an attempted homicide, I need to give my statement at the station."

"...Witness...to an attempted homicide?" Mrs. White’s blood seemed to freeze in her veins.

Five simple words that chilled her to the bone.

Mrs. White’s voice cracked with disbelief."Xavier, she’s pregnant - with your child! How can you just walk away?"

Alpha Xavier’s expression didn’t flicker. His voice dropped, cold and sharp.

"And what? You expected me to throw myself in front of the blade for her? You were standing right there - why didn’t you?"

Her face flushed.

"I was tied up! What the hell was I supposed to do?"

He leaned in slightly, eyes narrowed.

"And if you weren’t? You’d have jumped in?"

"Damn right I would’ve."

He let out a short, bitter laugh.

"Then go ahead. Stab yourself first. Prove it."

Mrs. White’s mouth opened, but no words came. Her face went pale.

Alpha Xavier ’s face remained expressionless, his coldness making everyone uncomfortable, even the police.

I rolled my eyes - mentally, at least.

Guys like him? All charm and zero substance.

They act sweet when they’re in control and when nothing’s really at stake.

But the minute things get messy or inconvenient? They’re gone.

Alpha Xavier gave me that look then - soft eyes, like he was trying to say, "I’d never do that to you."

Sure. I’ve seen this movie before.

Spoiler alert: it doesn’t end well.

"All of you need to come to the station!" the officer announced.

"Wait," Harper interjected. "We have important evidence to report." She told the officers about the body buried by the pond.

Mrs. White, already pale, turned ghostly white and frantically denied everything. "No! No! She’s lying! Don’t listen to her!"

Harper showed the police the video of the White women and their bodyguards digging by the pond.

Despite Mrs. White’s hysterical denials and attempts to block them, several officers immediately gathered tools and headed toward the tree at the center of the pond.

Mrs. White collapsed to the ground.

Everything was over.

I shot a cold glance at the panicking Mrs. White.

Her reaction confirmed everything.

Everyone’s hearts were in their throats, but the outcome seemed inevitable.

The officers dug around the entire circumference of the tree.

A few seconds passed before the door opened and Cecilia’s group was escorted out.

They were tired and dirty. Their shoes were full of mud.Their faces had dust and sweat.

It had been a hard day.

As the group stepped into the hallway, the contrast was almost comical.

Alpha Sebastian stood waiting near the corridor’s edge, dressed in crisp charcoal gray, not a single hair out of place, his posture as pristine as his pressed shirt collar.

He looked like he’d stepped out of a boardroom, not into a police station.

He smiled when he saw Cecilia.

"How was your countryside adventure?" he asked.

Cecilia managed a half-hearted smile, the best she could do under the circumstances.

She still didn’t understand. There should have been something under that tree.

Every clue, every sign, every instinct had pointed there.

And yet - nothing. Just roots and soil and failure.

"Don’t look so down, Cecilia," Alpha Sebastian said, gently brushing dirt from her cheek. "Sometimes the darkest hour comes right before the dawn."

He looked at the others. "Hungry?"

"Yes! YES!" Tang shouted.

"I could eat," Levan added softly.

Cecilia nodded. "They’re starving. Let’s grab something."

Alpha Sebastian smiled. "Such a responsible sister."

She rolled her eyes.

Footsteps approached.

Cecilia thought it was Tang or Levan. "Tell me what you’re hungry for - "

And Xavier walked up beside her, calm as ever. "Whatever you want is fine with me."

Cecilia froze, mortified.

Behind her, the boys stared in stunned silence.

Alpha Sebastian’s smile faded. He stepped forward, resting a hand on her shoulder.
