All Chapters of The Alpha’s Banished Luna: Chapter 91 - Chapter 97

❀° ┄───────╮ Sylphiette ╰───────┄ °❀The words froze on my tongue before they fully came out. The sharp scent of apple with a smoky fragrance beneath it reached my nose and I paused, my body reacting to the scent before it truly registered it.And my head snapped towards her with a sharp turn, freezing me properly at the door.She sat poised like an unignorable piece of art on one of the love sofas in Cassius’s office, her presence a concoction of fire and ice—it felt alarming.Her legs were crossed at her knee and her arms folded beneath her endowed chest. Her body was clad in a black, sleek leather outfit and her nails looked perfectly manicured and painted a crimson shade, highlighting the porcelain glow of her pale skin. They looked dangerously sharp too. And her long black hair was held in a high ponytail, sleek to perfection and pinned at the center with a gold hair stick embedded with an emerald stone.She wore black, smoky makeup that was blended perfectly to enhance

❀° ┄───────╮ Sylphiette ╰───────┄ °❀ With that, she moved and started towards me. Or rather, the door. Her words hung heavily in the air, sharp and jabbing like the thin heels of her black boots clanking against the wooden flooring of Cassius’s office—an impending threat and maybe it was even though she’d stated otherwise. But I couldn't shake off the ominousness in her words that jabbed at me like razor-sharp claws. She might have been looking at Cassius when she said those words, but it felt like they were directed at me. An involuntary shiver ran down my spine. My instinct rattled as she neared, unsettled by the manic look in her piercing green eyes. I tried to breathe, tried not to let my unease show. But the longer I held her sharp gaze, the more turbulently my mind unfurled. But I also knew Zenya was trying to play some sort of mind games with me. She was trying to pull a wild string against me. She’d done so before and I was barely healed from my wounds.

❀° ┄───────╮ Sylphiette ╰───────┄ °❀ “Are you sure you’re really fine?” Rina asked for the umpteenth time for over an hour. Her warm, ocean blue gaze softly worried over me behind the teacup raised to her mouth. I sighed, “Rina, come now. We’ve already been over this a million times in the past hour. I’m fine.” I said softly, a faint smile crossing my lips. “I’m sorry,” she said with a soft slur, her shoulders deflating, gaze lowering to her cup. “It’s just… I just can’t help it, you know, you almost got killed. It must have been horrifying for you, so I just thought, maybe you didn’t want to talk about it. I didn’t mean to be so persistent about it.” Her lips pursed, even though they hid behind her teacup. I knew so. Rina was like an open book to me. I sighed, dropping my cup onto the saucer and crossing my arms before leaning back slightly. Don’t get me wrong, I am grateful and happy that she was worrying over me but it’s been an hour since she came by and she’s still fuss

╔═━─────━▒ Cassius ▒━─────━═╝A knock on my office door had my focus shifting. My head snapped up towards the sound, my response almost immediate and gruff as I sensed the presence of the person behind the door.The door opened and my beta walked in; a tall, solid, stoic frame. His gait, measured and quiet as he crossed the room and stopped in front of my desk.“Alpha,” he greeted with a bow, his hand resting across his chest and I responded with a short nod before he straightened.My gaze caught the brown envelope in his right hand and my brow shot up out of pure curiosity. “What’s that in your hand?”“The report, Alpha, on the interrogation you ordered.” He replied, then meticulously slid the large envelope across my desk to me.My brows raised and I picked up the envelope. Pulling out the documents in it, my gaze scanned over the first few words at the top, written in bold, black ink.The report gave brief details about the number of servants that worked under my roof, their po
