Chapter 182
He was still wondering how his grandfather had found out about Lori being nephilim. As far as he was concerned only Draco knew that.
Draco wasn’t a loose mouth. He shouldn’t have told anyone…
“Besides… this girl you speak of so strongly… from what I have learned about her… she’s an orphan, no money to her name, no land, no fame. She has
nothing.”
“Nowadays, marriages are built on alliances. Our world is cruel… we need all the allies we can get…. And you need a strong Luna from a powerful family.”
“I don’t need all of that. Lori’s enough for me.”
Gabriel murmured and his grandfather sighed.
“Love doesn’t win battles Gabriel. You of all people should know better.”
“You fought very hard to be alpha. Are you going to lose it all because of some girl?!”
The words stung. More than he had expected it to. Just because he wasn’t expecting it… he wasn’t expecting his grandfather to be so shortsighted and care
about such frivolities.
When he was fighting his cousins who were eyeing his throne he had no help from allies.
Most of his battles he had fought alone, by himself, without any help from other alphas so why should he marry a Luna because of alliances?!
“I will give you time to think about it. But don’t waste time in rejecting her.”
“I’m not rejecting her.”
The old man walked closer to his grandson and patted him on his back.
“Like I said… I’ll give you time..”
“I think I’d like to see her before I leave, maybe after the meeting. I’m curious to see the young woman who has stolen your heart.”
Gabriel’s eyes widened.
“Will you change your mind if you see her?”
There was an unlikely look on his grandfather’s face. It was highly unlikely.
“Oh there’s no changing my mind Gabriel. She cannot be your wife or Luna.”

The broken necklace was just the beginning. Lori’s power launched back in full force. The growing pains kept her in bed.
Why did it have to be now?! She thought as she walked across the room. She had to at least inform someone… Gabriel’s line was unreachable. Draco’s too.

The stumps on her back were back and they were growing rapidly by the hour and she dreaded looking in the mirror to find wings. Her forehead and hair was matted with sweat. At least there was no bleeding this time.
Just unbearable pain and the insatiable need to break and destroy everything in her path.
Fortunately one of the guards was closer to the door. So when she opened it he was in her face instantly.
His face paled at the sight of her.
Lori didn’t know if it was the gigantic black wings growing behind her or the fact that she looked like a delirious mad woman that shocked him.
“God!!! Is there something wrong?!”
“I’ll call the alpha…”
Lori halted him with a raise of her hand.
“He’s busy right now. He can’t be disturbed.” She said as she gritted her teeth.
“I need you to go to this address. There’s a woman there. Her name is Astra Barlow. Bring her to me,
She unfolded the piece of paper in her hand. The man was still looking at her weirdly.
“Righ.. right now?!”
The man stammered and Lori nodded.
She slammed her palm on the door.
“Yes now!! As you can see, it’s fucking urgent!”
She snapped as she passed the piece of paper.
The man hurried away and Lori wondered if he would do it. Was Astra going to still be around?! She might have left.
she could only pray that she was,
