‘Not that great.’ Maya scoffed, ‘That’s easy for an Alpha to say.’
“That’scomforting.” I nodded, not truly convinced.
‘See, you’re doing it!’ Maya cheered and I rolled my eyes.
‘I’m not doing this if you cheer for me everytime.’ I huffed.
‘Alright grumpy.’ Maya shrugged, ‘But just know I’m rooting for you.’
“Would you mind if I talked to Daisy for a moment, Alpha?” Luna Freya turned her light eyes to Alpha
Nolan, “I would like to speak to her about her upcoming fight.”
Alpha Nolan gave me a weary look, one I dismissed.
“I’ll be good.” I frowned, jutting my lower lip out in a pout. “Promise.”
“Fine.” Alpha Nolan frowned, watching as I turned and followed Luna Freya into the kitchen.
* * * *
“Daisy.” Luna Freya exhaled, shutting the kitchen door behind her. “I’ve heard much about you.”
“You have?” I frowned.
‘Alpha Nolan told her about us?’ Maya frowned.
It didn’t sound right. Why would Alpha Nolan confide in Luna Freya? Were they close? Then again, I had no clue if Alpha Nolan had friends. He seemed to be friends with Alpha Zeke, though it was more of a professional friendship.
“No.” Luna Freya shook her head, “From my daughter, Brittany.”
My jaw dropped with an audible click. Luna Freya was Brittany’s Mom, which meant Brittany was the daughter of an Alpha. What was most disturbing, Brittany had told her Mom about me. I vividly remembered the first time meeting her at Haze and didn’t consider it a pleasurable experience.
“Umwhy would she tell you about me?” I frowned, now eyeing Luna Freya wearily.
Her eyes held wisdom and knowledge, but whose side was she on? She had come onto Alpha Nolan’s territory, surely that didn’t make her one of the bad guys? Yet her own daughter played for the other team.
“Brittany was a fool to trust that idiot.” Luna Freya scowled, looking murderous. “She knows that now, having seen it for herself.”
“So, she regrets letting him su*k her into a fight between werewolves and vampires?” I frowned, not convinced for a second.
“She does.” Luna Freya frowned, “The little fool didn’t tell her what he was planning. She was clueless until the moment she met the Vampires.”
“She knew nothing about any of this?” I grimaced. From the way Brittany talked to me at Haze, it didn’t seem like she regretted anything.
“She didn’t.” Luna Freya shook her head, “She placed her faith in her matea catastrophic mistake on her part. The little pup couldn’t stay faithful, let alone protect her from any of this.”
“Faithful?” My eyebrow perked up, “He cheated on Brittany?”
“Numerous times.” Luna Freya’s lips were pressed together.
She clearly felt for her daughter, but also understood the severity of what was done. Brittany had once been on their side, and Alpha Nolan would never trust her coming back. He’d demand to have her interrogated, maybe k****d. But if Luna Freya was telling the truth, then that made Brittany somewhat innocent. It meant Brittany put trust in her mate, but realized she had done wrong. She simply put her trust in Scott, an act that was starting to become deadly.
“What do I have to do with any of this?” I frowned, “You should’ve went to Alpha Nolan with this.”
“Brittany informed me you and Alpha Nolan areclose.” Luna Freya paused on the word, and I caught the hidden meaning clearly. “She said you would listen to reason and not be overruled with anger. You could help convince Alpha Nolan of her innocence.”
“II can try.” I said slowly, still unable to make a decision. “But you know I must be skeptical right?”
“I do understand.” Luna Freya frowned, “I will try to find proof to clear her name. Perhaps she could provide information from their side.”
“That would certainly help.” I nodded, “I’ll do what I can, but until I see that proof, I’m not completely on board.”
“You have listened to my side, that’s all I needed from you.” Luna Freya gave me a genuine smile.
I turned to walk back into the living room, part of me already craving Alpha Nolan.
“Daisy?” Luna Freya called out, making me turn.
“Yes, Luna?” I responded.
“Alpha Bran believes you to be a weak and feeble woman.” Luna Freya pointed out, “Use that against him.”
Three suites in the pack house were assigned to Alpha
Zeke, Alpha Bran, and Luna Freya. It made me uncomfortable to know Alpha Bran was staying in the same house, but rather him than Vampires.
‘What are we going to do about Brittany.’ Maya grimaced, ‘I still don’t trust her.’
‘I don’t either.’ I agreed, ‘But we need to accept the fact that she might be telling the truth. Brittany would have found out Scott’s plan sooner or later.’
‘There’s always a chance she’s telling the truth.’ Maya rolled her eyes, ‘I’m not trusting anything until there’s proof.’
‘That works for me.’ I chuckled.
Alpha Nolan allowed me to stop by my Dad’s on the condition he comes, of course.
Alpha Nolan stood silently in my Dad’s living room, watching as I told them about Sean. Dad’s face turned into a grimace while Grandma’s filled with concern.
“He could’ve been lying.” Dad scoffed, “Sean’s smart. I can’t see him getting caught by Vampires.”
“He could’ve been.” I nodded, “But we can’t just ignore it.”
“And what’s being done about this?” Dad grunted; his eyes locked on Alpha Nolan. I turned my own eyes on Nolan, wondering the same thing. What would be done about Sean? If they had taken him, we hadn’t a clue where that might be.
“I’m gathering as much information as I can about the Vampires.” Alpha Nolan’s eyes burned into my own as he spoke, “They’ve been gathering for quite some time, werewolves just never cared to notice.
They have networks throughout some major cities, but the closest is in Atlanta, Georgia. If they took him, that’s where he’d be.”
I wasn’t sure why Alpha Nolan was trusting us with this. Now that I was beginning to think before I acted, running off to Atlanta alone was an unbelievably bad idea.
