I don’t want this woman anywhere near her.
The warrior, supposed to keep an eye on them, comes strolling inside behind her and stops at a safe distance. I shoot him a glance, silently asking him to stay there, and he does.
“Luna.” She approaches me hurriedly.
“Serafina. “Daphne comes in front of me, blocking her path.” what is it? You can tell me.”
She stops, her gaze switching between us two. “You know.”
“What?” I frown.
“Luna.” Tears start welling in Serafina’s eyes, surprising me. “I am sorry. Please, I am so sorry.”
My heart sinks. “What is it about?”
Serafina drops to her knees and slips forward. “Please. I didn’t want to do any of this. I had no choice, Luna. I really had no choice. “
“Mommy. “Ayla grips my dress from behind.
I grab her small hand, keeping her behind me and safe from the woman in front.
“Bad Auntie, Mommy.” She mumbles close to my leg and peeks around. “Tell her to leave, Mommy.”
There is so much fear in her voice that it breaks a part of my heart. I clench her hand tighter and watch as Serafina wipes her tears.
“I am sorry, Ayla. Auntie didn’t want to hurt you, Sweetie.”
“What is it, Serafina?! Don’t twist the words. Just blurt it out.” Daphna questions stiffly.
“They took my niece.” Serafina sobs. “Back then, they took my niece and threatened us, Luna. I was forced to give up all the information about Ayla.”
My jaw grits. The cat is out of the bag. There is no use beating around the bush anymore.
“You could have asked your Alpha for help. “I sneer.
“They would have hurt her before we got to that innocent Baby, Luna. My sister would have died without her child. She had her after trying for years.” She sniffles, bowing her head in shame.
“So you pushed my Baby into danger to save one of yours? “I hiss.
“Mommy. “Ayla whispers, grabbing my attention.
My heart turns cold as I realize she is still behind me, trembling and hiding.
“D. “I shoot Daphne a glance.
She nods, understanding me, and turns towards Ayla. “Little Sunshine, let’s go play inside. Mommy needs to talk to Auntie.”
My obedient baby instantly jumps into her arms, and they stroll away.
When they are gone from sight, I turn to Serafina. She is watching me, and she is still crying. My heart is drowning, and my sense of impending doom is increasing at the moment.
“They wouldn’t have hurt Alpha’s daughter until they got what they wanted.” She provides a useless excuse.
“Why are you doing this now?” I ask, walking closer to her.
“Luna. “Her voice turns into a nervous whisper.
My heart starts pounding in my chest. “Tell me!”
“They know Alpha is coming, Luna. They have set a trap for him. Please. If something happens to Alpha, this pack won’t survive. Please do something. Save him.” She cries out, freezing my world.
“A trap for him?” My voice sounds muffled in my ears.
LAYLA
“A trap for him?”
“Yes, Luna.” Serafina sobs. “They know Alpha is coming. One of the men informed David and told him that… Boss will send us a gift for our help soon.”
My heart sinks in the depths of my stomach. For a few moments, I find myself rooted on the spot, unable to come to terms with the sudden revelation.
Then, my instincts kick in.
I hurry towards the center table, pick up my phone, and dial Alexander’s number. Like before, the line doesn’t connect. The voice tells me that he is unreachable.
Panicking and shivering, I dial Levi’s number. It doesn’t connect either.
“Layla.” Daphne comes rushing outside, her face pale and filled with fear. “Ayla, where- “
“I left a warrior with her. She is fine.” She interrupts, grabbing my arms.
“What did I just hear? Is it a trap?” Her eyes widen. She must have heard everything because of her heightened hearing.
In a trance, I nod my head. ” How- – -How do we reach them? How do we send a message?”
“I can’t mindlink Levi.” Daphne cries out, covering her face with her palms. “I can’t talk to him, Layla. I can’t feel him.”
Blood runs cold in my veins. I whip around and face Serafina.
“You.” My finger trembles as I point it towards her. “Where is your mate? That Gamma?”
“He sent me, Luna. David is too ashamed to face you.” She whispers under her breath and bows her head. “Remi. ” I address the warrior still standing at some distance.
“Yes, Luna.”
“Take some warriors with you and put David and his son on house arrest. “I hiss.
“Luna, please forgive me. Please, don’t do this to us. “Serafina’s face turns pale.
But I can’t focus on that. Alex is in danger. I can’t lose him. I just can’t.
“You, Serafina. If you want your mate and son to live, you need to come with me now. “I rush towards the door without waiting for an answer.
I won’t let him get hurt. I can’t live without him. Now that I know his love, I can’t go a single day without it.
“Layla.” Daphne follows me hurriedly.
