The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna (Amorah and Holmes) novel Chapter 93

AMORAH

The room stayed quiet after Darius confirmed Bethany’s supporters were openly recruiting.

This was no longer only political pressure. It was beginning to feel like preparation for a real Alpha conflict

Darius placed additional files on the table carefully. “Most of the movement is happening near western council routes.”

Conrad reviewed the reports quickly while speaking without looking up. “How many territories are cooperating?”

“Not enough to start open war yet,” Darius answered. “But enough to create instability if the succession hearing fails

I leaned forward slightly. “Bethany wants fear spreading before the hearing even begins.”

“She wants wolves choosing sides early,” Conrad replied.

Darius nodded once. “That is what it looks like.”

Conrad dismissed him a few minutes later after giving new patrol instructions. The moment the door closed behind him, silence settled inside the room again.

I rubbed one hand slowly across my forehead while trying to process everything at once. Conrad noticed immediately.

“You are thinking too much again,” he murmured.

“I think we passed the point where that is avoidable.”

He set the reports aside before turning fully toward me. “Come here.”

I moved closer without arguing this time. Conrad pulled me/gently against him until I rested comfortably beside his chest.

His hand settled against my stomach automatically again.

“You do that constantly now,” I said quietly.

His fingers paused briefly. “I know.”

The answer pulled a small smile from me despite everything happening around us. For a few seconds, neither of us spoke. Then Conrad finally exhaled slowly. “I need you to stay closer to the inner territory from now on.”

I looked up immediately. “Conrad.”

“This is not a request to confine you.”

“It sounds exactly like one.”

His jaw tightened slightly before he answered carefully. “Bethany’s allies are growing bolder. Holmes is preparing for instability. I will not risk unnecessary exposure right now.”

I understood his reasoning. That did not stop frustration from rising inside me anyway.

“I am not helpless,” I replied.

“Then stop treating me like glass.”

His eyes held mine steadily for several long seconds. “You are carrying my child.

The words softened part of my anger immediately. Conrad rarely spoke emotionally unless something truly mattered to

him.

I looked away briefly before answering more quietly. “just do not want fear controlling everything.”

His expression eased slightly. “Neither do I.”

The following morning, I took the twins outside the private quarters early before the territory becatne crowded with patrol movement again. Several guards followed us through the inner grounds while Kyra walked beside me holding my hand naturally.

Zane pretended not to stay close. He still positioned himself near enough to watch every wolf passing us carefully.

“You are being obvious,” I told him.

He frowned immediately. “About what?”

“You keep glaring at every guard.”

“I am checking security.”

“You are twelve.”

“That does not mean I cannot notice things.”

Kyra sighed dramatically beside me. “He has been acting weird since the pregnancy.”

“I have not.”

“You definitely have.”

Zane looked offended while I laughed softly under my breath. The sound surprised me slightly.

Months ago, moments like this would have felt impossible.

We reached the garden area near the eastern side of the territory shortly afterward. Kyra immediate sat near the fountain. while pulling out one of her reading tablets.

Zane stayed standing beside the walkway with his arms folded. His attention kept shifting toward the guards..

“You really are worried,” I observed quietly.

His expression tightened slightly before he finally answered. “Everyone keeps talking about danger now.

The honesty in his voice caught me off guard.

I stepped closer carefully. “We are handling it
