Semua Bab Moonlight Deception: A Tale Of Ties. : Bab 21 - Bab 30

Akira's POV I sigh heavily as I stride the small living room. I had just finished watching the news and I feel extremely sad knowing that my name and picture is everywhere on the news. "Wife kills her husband after getting out of prison." Those are how the headlines are like. I know Elara is behind all of that. She is most likely the one spreading those kind of news so that everyone in town can think I killed Kaid. She is tarnishing my image, the worse part of it all is that I do not know why she is going that far.I admit that Elara and I did not share that kind of lovey dovey sisterly bond but I never imagined that Elara hated my guts that much to go as far as painting me as the killer of my husband.Even if I am the killer as she claims, Elara should have been the first person to cover up for me. She should have been the one protecting me from others.I walk back to the kitchen and try to clear up the plates I and Vincent used in eating this morning. My attention suddenly drifts

Vincent's POV"What are you talking about?" Akira asks. Her face changes into one of confusion. Honestly, I do not know what I am talking about as well. Is it really possible to prove Akira not guilty? I would have to gather enough evidence to prove to the werewolf committe that she can wander the streets freely.I mutter a cuss under my breath and mentally scold myself for making such a huge promise. To grant her freedom? Vincent, you are fucking stupid. I rub my forehead and sigh heavily. My eyes settle back on Akira's confused face."What did you just say? I asked you a question." She raises her voice at me. Anyways, there is no going back on my word. I promised to grant her freedom and i will do whatever it takes to make that possible."I know how you badly want to leave this place. You hate it here with me. That is why you turned down the mate bo...." Akira does not let me finish my sentence, she scoffs loudly and curses under her breath."You have got to be kidding me. How does

Vincent's POV I sigh.heavily, unsure of what I am bracing myself for. I step into the large compound full of right security. Several wolves hang around, their claws and fangs out, ready to devour any intruder.One or the guards point to a small door on the left. I push the door open and step into the small room. Three thrones are arranged vertically, the three most powerful Alphas sit comfortably on the throne. They are the werewolf committe, the ones behind the welfare of the town."We have already attended to you. What more do you want?" The Alpha in the middle throne, the one who I recognize to be Alpha Thomas speaks in an impatient tone. His eyes are darted towards Elara's direction."Alpha Thomas, I am here with him." She pauses to point at me."He is here to plea for Akira's inno...."I interrupt Elara with a loud cough. "Allow me do the talking." I snap at her. She scoffs in response but surprisingly keeps quiet and allows me to do the talking."Greetings to you great Alphas of

Akira's POV I cross my legs on the plush couch and a frown grows on my face as my eyes settle on the wall clock. Vincent has been gone for surprisingly a very long time. It has been approximately six hours since he left, is he not going to return back home? Maybe I was too harsh on him? He is only doing all of this in my favour. I think I might have gone too extra by searching through his stuffs. I should just trust him the same way he trusts him. Screw all of this Akira!Should I just apologize to him when he returns home? That is if he even returns back home or should I make him so pancakes? He loves those. I facepalm and wave off such thoughts. Why am I acting like Vincent is my husband? I would not even call us friend, we are just two people sharing the same goal.Suddenly, a loud bang on the door startles me, interrupting my thoughts. I hastily scurry towards the direction of the door. I peep through the door hole and i see it is Vincent, he looks tired. I breathe a heavy sigh

Akira's POV Vincent shrugs lightly and waves it off but the suspicious look I give him causes him to throw his hands in the air and flash the phone screen in my face. It is a call from an unknown number. "Why are you not picking it?" I ask, furrowing my brows at him in confusion, mixed with slight suspicion at the way his face becomes slightly pale by my question."It is an unknown number Akira, I do not know who is calling." Vincent retorts. I roll my eyes at him. That should be more reason why he should pick the call. It could be Elara or Roman. Unless, Vincent might know who it is but is trying to cover it up in front of me. I eye him suspiciously and snap at him "How else are you going to know who is calling if you do not answer the call.""Come on Akira. More like those are a lot of reasons why I should not answer the call. It could be a prank call." Vincent trails off. I scoff and choke out a bitter laughter. Is he kidding me right now? Prank call? Who would want to prank him w
