“Alpha Hunter, have you made your decision?” he asks when he

“Not quite yet, Alpha Zahn. I have question for you. What do you know about Aiden and Alaric working with Koden to attack me and

He sighs. “Gi

urprised that he’s being this honest. I can feel Hunter’s surprise as but he still feels reserved.

nd what did you tell him?”

Chapter 242

“I told him that I have my own problems, and I don’t need any more, especially from a man who seems to have gotten his life together better than any of us,” he says, irritation clear in his tone.

“You must understand my concern, Alpha. You ask to come to my pack and within a day I hear that several Alphas are planning to rise against me again. It’s very convenient, don’t you think?”

“I understand how it must look to you, Alpha Hunter. But believe me, there is nothing convenient about my relationship with nry mate. THAT is my sole purpose for coming to your pack. If you want to lock me in a room and keep me under 24–hour guard, I won’t argue. But…” he sighs, his voice becoming sad. “You heard my mate. She hates me.”

“No offense, Alpha, but you’ve mistreated her badly. I can’t imagine how angry she must be, not just at you, but also at the Moon Goddess who didn’t accept her when she literally threw herself at her mercy. I will warn you, Alpha Zahn, you won’t like my ideas or my way of dealing with your mate. But if you come here, to my pack, seeking my help, you will abide by my rules and you let me do what I think is best for your mate,” I say sternly. Hunter will make sure our pack stays safe, letting me focus on helping Jocelyn, I need Zahn to know that if his mate chooses to walk away from him, I won’t fight her on that.

“Luna Sophie, I didn’t realize you were on the phone,” he says, surprised.

“I keep no secrets from my mate,” Hunter says.

“Would you… would you be willing to speak to my mate, to let her know that I’m serious about bringing her to see you?” he asks.

“I can’t speak to your intentions, Alpha Zahn, but I will let her know that you have asked to bring her to our pack and Hunter and I have agreed to allow it,” I say, quickly looking at Hunter for confirmation. He nods.

“Thank you, Luna. That’s all I ask.” We hear rustling again before he speaks, putting the phone on speaker.

“Jocelyn, I have Luna Sophie on the phone.”

It’s quiet a moment. “Luna Jocelyn?”

“I am no Luna,” she spits out.

“Whether it was by your choice or not, you are mated to an Alpha so therefore, you are a Luna,” I say gently.

“I rejected him. But he refuses to accept it,” she snarls. Well, it would be a snarl if she wasn’t so weak. However, as weak as her body may be, her mind is sharp, and she is furious.

“Luna Jocelyn, I wanted to let you know that Alpha Zahn has requested to bring you to my pack. My mate and I have agreed. I have also let Alpha Zahn know that he may not agree with my ways, but he will abide by the rules of our pack while the two of you are here.”

She snorts. “It’s a little late for that. What do you think you can do for me, Luna Sophie?” she asks resentfully.

“I don’t know that I can do anything for you, Luna Jocelyn. But I know that here, in my pack, people find peace. They sleep for the first time in a long time. There is laughter, there is love, and there is space from

Hings you don’t want to be close to,” I say. Better to let Zahn know now what he’s in for.

“He would never agree to that,” she begins.

“I have agreed to it, Jocelyn. I want to fix things between us. Please,

let’s do this. Not for me, but for you,” Zahn says, his voice gentler than I expected.
