Chapter 32

Kylie POV

Alpha Logan couldn’t refum in time to have dinner with us and so I had dinner with Katy. Since Alpha Graham had called Shir and Fenris to take care of Zoe and her requests, they couldn’t come even though they were not wanting to cater to Zoe. In my heart I knew he was punishing me because Zoe must have filled his ears with what she had to do today with a pinch of spice

Katy filled me with information about the ball. She was extremely excited and told me all about the theme, decorations and the music she had chosen. She was perfect at hosting events and so I knew the ball was going to be a success. But, still 1 found it a little too much. I mean she said that they were hosting it in my honor. It made little sense, because I was still married to Alpha Graham.

“Stop feeling so low, Kylie,” she said, placing her hand over my forearm. “This is the first time Logan is so happy. I’ve seen him with multiple partners and he was with them to let his steam off. With you, it’s different. He isn’t letting his steam off. He genuinely wants you. Please don’t deny him this little pleasure. I want to do this for him.”

I shook my head as my heart thundered in my chest. “I feel like this could take a U turn and we all will be back to square one. The Elders haven’t cleared my papers,” I murmured.

“The Elders haven’t cleared papers yet. It’s not that we have lost all hopes.”

Dread plummeted in my stomach. “I hope not.

“Luna Kylie,” an omega servant, came to the dining room. “Miss Zoe wants to meet you.”

“Fuck that bitch!” Katy said. “Don’t go to meet her.”

I didn’t want to. “Tell her I have gone to bed.”

“Yes,” the servant bowed and left. However, moments later, her call came.

She said, “Luna Kylie, Alpha Graham wants to talk to you on the phone.”

I frowned. “I’ll call him.”

“He insists on a video call with the two of us.”

I clenched my teeth. Taking a deep breath in, I got up. “I think I have to take this to stop the drama from furthering, Katy.”

“I wish I could throw her out of the pack,” Katy growled.

I laughed and then left to meet Zoe. She wasn’t invited to the main building and so I was sure that her dinner was served in her quarters. When I reached there, I saw her crying on the phone, looking at Alpha Graham on the phone.

“You know I wasn’t even served dinner in my room. They made me go to the common room to have dinner,” she cried. Her eyes snapped to me and she wiped her tears. “Alpha Graham, I came to the Nord pack to see Luna Kylie because you wanted me to, but I didn’t dream that I would be treated so badly”

“Where’s Kylie?” Graham shouted.

“She has come just now,” Zoe sniffled and gave me the phone.

When I faced Graham, I could see his face contorting in rage. “Kylie, how dare you take Zoe out on the field with you? She is pregnant. Do you want to kill my child, heir of the Lunar pack? am going to make sure that you are punished for this

A shudder ran down my spine. I knew what that punishment would be. He would simply throw me in the dungeons. Graham, she said that she came to check on me. Don’t you think I know what that meant? You wanted to spy on me. So I took her to the project site to show what I was doing. What’s so bad about it?”

He was speechless for a moment. “But that doesn’t mean you will try to kill her! You have crossed the limits this time. Just wait and see what I do to you. I am going to drag you to the Lunar pack and punish you so hard that you will shudder when you think of hurting Zoe! And why is she in the omega’s quarters? How dare you ask Alpha Logan to put her here?”

“It’s not in my hands where Alpha Logan houses her. I did nothing to hurt her!” I growled, even though I was feeling scared inside. “She wanted to-”

“Enough!” he yelled through the phone. “I am coming tomorrow and I am going to talk to you about it. Now give the phone

to Zoe.”

When I handed the phone to Zoe, she smirked and then when she turned the phone for Graham to see her, her expressions morphed to sadness. “Alpha Graham?”

“Zoe, my love,” he said in a gentle voice. “I am coming tomorrow and I’ll take you back to what you deserve. I’m so sorry for what Kylie is doing to you. I didn’t know that my Luna would become such a disgusting cunt. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of her.”

Misery and shame bubbled in my heart at his words. My eyes welled up with tears, Graham was my mate, and he had vowed. to look after me.

“Darling,” he continued. “Please don’t feel sad and wipe those tears away. Just rest and take care of yourself. Have you had food?”

She nodded, with more tears flowing out of her eyes.

“Good. Then sleep nicely and think of me. I’m going to wrap you in my arms the moment we meet. I can’t wait to be with you. Every moment without you is torture.”

“Oh, Graham, I love you so much!” she cried, placing her hand on her chest. “I wish I had married you.”

“Zoe, I love you too. Now go to sleep, okay? And dream of me.

“You dream of me also,” she giggled through her tears. “You know what position I love, don’t you?”

He let out a dirty laugh. “I know it and that’s how I will dream of you.”

Zoe disconnected the call and let out a laugh while looking at me. “You shouldn’t have done this to me, Kylie,” she said. “Now I am going to make sure that you are thrown in the dungeons forever. Once that is done, I’ll take over. Graham hates you. You are nothing for him. Once this ball is over, he is going to grab your hair and drag you back to the Lunar pack. Wait

and watch!”

Igulped because I knew that this was true. “Take care, Zoe,” I said and left. My body trembled so much with fear that I had to lean against a wall to control myself. Tears came unbridled. How could he talk like this to Zoe in front of me?

He was completely under her spell, unable to think logically, as if she had him wrapped around her little finger. The bond between us died a little more, as misery coated my soul.

“Luna Kylie,” Shir said in a concerned vojce. “Can I do something?”

I shook my head. What could he do? I felt the situation turning hopeless. The Elders hadn’t responded and my hopes were diminishing faster than a shooting star.

Kylie POV

Since Zoe had declared that she was unfit for going out the next day, I went on my own. Shir and Fenris also couldn’t accompany me because Graham had asked them to take care of Zoe, which, according to him, was my punishment, but I knew more than that. He was showing me that his men would rather give importance to his mistress than to me.

As the evening drew closer, my nervousness increased. The Elders hadn’t cleared the papers as yet. I was sure that Graham was going to drag me back and this time he was so pissed at me that things would go spiraling down.

Shir informed me Graham had come at 6PM and that he was staying in nice accommodation in a hotel. He didn’t call me once, but he immediately shifted Zoe to his room. Both Shir and Fenris were on guard duty in the hotel. They were to accompany Zoe if she wanted to go out and I heard that she had gone shopping. I should have been used to Graham’s apathy, but because of the damn bond, I felt miserable and I ended up crying at least twice. Maybe my crying was associated with the impending future I was about to get plunged in.

Alpha Logan didn’t come to see me the whole day, and I knew the reason. He didn’t want people to gossip about me and him, especially when Grahamn was in the pack. It would be a lie to say that I didn’t miss him and that I hoped he was here. His hot and cold attitude towards me was fraying my nerves.

you more I wished Coral was here. I reached for her inside. “Coral, you responded to me once. Please come back. I need than I needed you ever. I know you receded because of what Alpha Graham did to us, but I am alone without you. You may take your time to heal. You’ll replace me here when you are back and I am not giving up on you.‘ I sat there for a long time, feeling the pain.

Katy came to see me just an hour before the ball. “Hey, why are you dressed up?” she asked, bewildered, as she switched on the lights of my room. She gasped when she saw my face. “Oh, my God!” She came to me and hugged me. “Why are you crying? Kylie, please don’t cry!”

I lost all control I had on me and sobbed. “Katy, this is going so badly. What should I do?”

“Nothing is going bad!” she assured me, but her words felt hollow. She stroked my back until I stopped crying. Then she cupped my cheeks and said, “Get ready, girl. Brother is coming to escort you to the ball.”

My brows furrowed. “Alpha Logan? Why?” That was the last I expected.

“Well, just get ready. It is important that you go with him.”

I couldn’t understand, but I suddenly felt excited. “Did he say that to you or you are assuming?”

She chuckled. “He said that.”

Motivation to get dressed for him surged through me. Katy grinned and hugged me tightly. “Get dressed fast! He’ll be here in an hour.”

As soon as she left, I couldn’t help but giggle. I ran to the bathroom and washed my face. If this was my last evening with him, then I was going to make it great. I wore the maroon dress Katy had insisted I buy for the ball. Instead of pinning my hair, I left them cascading down my waist. I picked up the deepest shade of maroon lipstick and applied it on my lips and then went on to strap the leather of my high heel nude gladiators.

When I came out of the room, I noticed that Alpha Logan’s room was closed. There was complete silence and so I assumed. he had already left. Katy was wrong. Why would Alpha Logan accompany me? Going to the party all alone was a nightmare. I didn’t want to face Graham and Zoe and get humiliated all over again. Dread ran down my spine. My hands turned clammy as I climbed down the stairs,

The ballroom was on the west side of the manor. I had to cross the garden to reach there. As soon as I stepped out, chilly air

enveloped me. My eyes landed on the stairs of the ballroom. People milled around there, excited and chirpy. For a minute, I had this urge to go back to my room. Suddenly, a warm arm embraced my waist, and I closed my eyes as warmth flooded my chest, dispelling my anxiety.

“I’m sorry, Kylie,” Alpha Logan said. “I wanted to be with you all the time, but I didn’t want to give Graham a chance to make

a show.”

I chuckled and blinked away the tears. He kissed my temple and said, “Come, let’s give them a show.” He gave me his arm. As soon as I curled my arm around his, he tugged me to the ballroom. “And you look beautiful!” In a black tailored suit and hair. combed, he looked like he was walking out of a fashion magazine.

It was a show. Everyone looked at Alpha Logan and me and then at our joined arms as we entered the ballroom. They all bowed to him, parting ways for us to walk. Soft music started flowing.

Murmurs broke around me as to how beautiful we looked as a couple. At the same time, whispers circulated about how quickly I had found myself in Alpha Logan’s bed, causing some to snicker.

My eyes landed on Graham, who was glaring at me. My heart plummeted in my stomach.

But it wasn’t their anger that had me. It was what Zoe was wearing. She was wearing a white bridal dress, and I suppressed a laugh. She was looking like a clown. Did she buy this at the market?

When’I looked at Katy, she just grinned at me and winked. What was the invitation she sent to Graham?

Several pack members gathered around us and Alpha Logan. Shir came to my side and said, “Alpha Graham wants to speak with you.”

“Okay!” I breathed. When I went to Graham, he clearly looked furious. “Kylie,” he said in a tight voice.

“Graham,” I tipped my chin down.

“How dare you enter the ballroom with him?” he hissed. “Did you try to insult me?”

I looked back at Alpha Logan and found him staring at me. Then I turned to Graham and said, “I came with him because my husband had someone else to accompany him.”

He shot his hand towards me and grabbed my upper arm painfully. “Come with me!” he growled and dragged me out of the ballroom. A tremor of shock passed through me.

“What are you doing?” I asked, embarrassed as hell. As I turned my head over my shoulder, I caught sight of Zoe smirking with an evil glint in her eyes.

“I am doing what I should have done long back!” He hissed and dragged me to the omega’s room where Zoe was staying

earlier.
