To The Alpha

I'm rooted in my place.

I wait for Jace to tell me more, to offer more evidence that his Alpha is the Jasper that Rain encountered. And so if she is the one this man is talking about, Saray is the mate of an Alpha. This is groundbreaking news. Rain is about to become a Queen even though she is already a Luna. Complicated, that is what this is very much going to be.

But Jace eats on, and doesn't seem intent on elaborating further on his Luna.

"Are you looking for her?" I ask to get him to talk. He looks up and stares at me dubiously. "Why should I be looking for my Luna?" he asks cautiously. He clearly smells fuse, suspecting there is more to my question. Logical really, he hasn't given any indication that makes my question plausible. I have to be careful not to give myself away. "Hey, sorry if my question came out wrong. It's because you said you were looking for someone," I defend myself. "I have no intention of interfering with your business."
