“Are you sure you want to do it?” Logan asked as he sat in the driver’s seat, looking at me. “Alpha Graham has got what he deserves and so has Liam. Zoe is still missing and my spies have searched everywhere. It looks like she has disappeared from the face of earth.” He placed a hand on my thigh. “Kylie, what I really want is for us to move forward without getting caught up in an unnecessary mess.”

I bit my

bottom l*p and looked away. “Logan, I won’t rest until I punish them all. I would have let it go if they hadn’t killed my father, but not now. They killed my only family and manipulated me. So no. I won’t leave them.” Then I turned to gaze at him. “However, I will totally understand if you don’t want to go with me. I can take care of myself.”

A flicker of anger passed through his eyes. “Kylie, did I say that I won’t be with you? I am in this with you for as long as you

dare say that again, okay?” want to. I only want you to be happy. And don’t you

I nodded. “Thank you,” I muttered.

We reached the High Council along with a few warriors. Ace and Katy couldn’t accompany us because Ace had to look after the pack in Logan’s absence, and Katy wanted to stay back with him. She had mentioned that Ace was being forced to go back to his pack by his parents, but I didn’t have the time to dwell on it much.

When we arrived at the High Council, I saw Graham was already there, along with Asher. The council had agreed for the first hearing a week later and so I knew that this was just the beginning.

Graham looked smugly at me as if he was going to defeat me already. Taking a ragged breath in, I walked inside the council, holding Logan’s hand. Graham followed us with Asher.

As he passed us in the foyer, he snorted, “You couldn’t live without seeing me, Kylie?”

I froze. “What?” I snapped.

He glanced at Logan, a self–assured smirk formed on his l*ps, directed at me. “I know you think of me, and this is just your way of seeing me again. You miss me. Accept it!”

Logan’s chest vibrated with a dangerous growl. I was also furious at his words. So, I planted my hand on Logan’s chest, turned to look at him, and seized his l*ps in a passionate k*ss. When I pulled away, Logan had calmed down, and I also felt better. Then I looked over my shoulder at Graham and said, “Stop being delusional.” His mouth fell to the floor, and I walked into the main hall with my chin up.

Graham followed me, gritting his teeth and cursing under his breath.

Elder Hanks, as usual, occupied the central seat among the five Elders, perched on their chairs. Elder Hanks looked at me with curiosity and said, “So what brings you again to us, Luna Kylie?”

I had to suppress my smile when he said that. I bowed to him and said, “I’ve filed a murder case against Alpha Graham for killing my father in the cold.”

There was a pin drop silence. Several moments later, Graham said, “This is a baseless case, Elders. Please dismiss it because Luna Kylie is coming back to me for revenge. She struggles to accept her jealousy over the fact that I love Zoe more than her. This is just a trick for her to get back to me.” He looked at me with narrowed eyes. “I will never take her back, even if she crawls to me and begs me. She is just being bitter and with no evidence, she is accusing me.”

I gaped at him for his stupid assumptions and arrogance. Before I could speak a word, Elder Hanks lashed him. “Alpha

Graham, as far as I know, Zoe has escaped and is not with you, while Kylie is happily married to Alpha Logan. I also heard that Zoe, who was married to Alpha Liam, never really rejected her husband. So I don’t think Kylie is jealous of her or you or your condition. Is it the other way round, though?”

Alpha Graham clenched his teeth as he glared at Elder Hanks, and I couldn’t help but suppress another smile. I hoped that Zoe not rejecting Liam would ring some warning bells in Graham’s head.

Elder Hanks continued, “Luna Kylie, why have you accused Alpha Graham of murdering your father if you don’t have any evidence?”

I took a deep breath in. “When Alpha Liam had kidnapped me two weeks back, he had put me in one of the guest rooms. He visited me and offered me a proposition that if I married him, he would reject Zoe. Zoe came immediately after him and started crying that she was pregnant with his pup.”

“That is my pup!” Graham growled.

“Quiet!” Elder Hanks growled back. “You may not speak until asked. Is that understood?”

Graham clenched his jaw and fell silent.

I narrated the rest and, in the end, added, “Zoe confessed that with her help, Alpha Graham had murdered my father only to usurp my pack. Not only that, it was a plan that she had hatched with Alpha Liam. Alpha Graham was just a puppet in his hand.”

Elder Hanks raised his eyebrow and let out a rough exhale. “I see…” He gazed at Graham. “How would you like to respond to that?”

Graham’s voice was clipped when he said, “She is dreaming. Zoe and I never killed her father. And I do not know about Alpha Liam. That bastard abused Zoe, and so she ran back to me. That’s all.”

Graham was sticking to his plan of action, which I was expecting. I said, “Elder Hanks, do I have the permission to talk to him directly?”

When Elder Hanks nodded, I turned to Graham. “Where is Zoe right now?”

“I don’t know,” he replied without looking at me.

“Did she not influence you to give me an anti–pregnancy shot when we just got married?” When he didn’t reply, I said, “That is already proven, Alpha Graham.”

His throat bobbed.

“The reason she asked you to do that was not because she loved you and wanted to have your pup. You both were into it. Eventually, your plan was to throw me in the dungeons and take over my pack. Otherwise, can you explain to me that why you are so protective of Zoe’s pregnancy and are looking forward to seeing your pack’s heir when you didn’t even want to have a pup with me? Why didn’t you want a pack heir with me? Because that’s what Alpha’s pine for!” I clenched my fists. “Zoe confessed to me it was a part of the plan with Alpha Liam.”

“Bullshit!” Graham thumped the table. “You are wasting my time! If you have anything concrete, then I’ll stay. Otherwise I have work to do!”

Great. I had him all riled up, and it was time to hit it. “Okay, then tell me where Zoe is?”

“1. Don’t. Know.” He hissed.

I chuckled and picked up two folders from my table. I gave one to him and the other to the Elders. “These are the latest pictures of Zoe. And by the looks of it, it seems that she is hiding in Alpha Graham’s house.”
