Semua Bab The Luna's Redemption: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Georgina Sinclair's POV:The trip to Alpha Marius's workplace seems to take longer than it does. It is mainly because my thoughts are unstoppable and persistent. But as soon as I pull into the Peddleton Enterprise Tower parking lot, I take a deep breath and allow myself to be in the moment.I park my car and get out of it. I adjust the light coat around me and careful not to touch the still-healing scratch on my cheek. I ignore the way a few people at the entrance glance my way. Maybe some of them recognizes me. The lobby has large and polished marble floors. A large but minimalist chandelier hangs above us and the scent of expensive air freshener stays the air.I hesitate by the front desk and wondering if I should ask the receptionist to call up to Alpha Marius's office. But nefore I can grab my phone, a man wearing glasses comes up behind me. "Miss Sinclair." he called before stopping just a step in front of me.I blink my eyes. "Yes?"Then he offers me a polite nod. "I am Har

Georgina Sinclair's POV: I am not sure how long I sit there silently and looking into my coffee as if it might give me the courage I lack. Marius has not moved since we last spoke. He is still sitting across from me. He is quiet, patient and watching me the same way someone watches a delicate thread and unsure if pulling at it will make the whole thing fall apart. Then something inside me has changed. It's not because I feel obligated. It's not because he asked. But I want to let someone know. Someone who does not treat me with suspicion, disdain or compassion. Someone who does not take advantage of my words. I lift my gaze to his and I speak. "It was Ryan." The words falls almost too soft. But Marius hears them. I can see the quiet storm forming behind his eyes. He tightens his jaw but says nothing to me. He is not even breathing loudly. "I confronted him." I continued. "About the false accusations he kept pointing at me. I asked him if he even wanted to hear my side

Georgina Sinclair's POV:Marius makes any situation seem both ridiculous and strangely charming which makes me shake my head. He looks at my face and raises an eyebrow. Then a smile appears on the corners of his lips."What?" he slowly replied and pretending to be offended. "I am only doing my job, Georgina. If you do not believe me, please ask Harry about it."But I let out a light snort. "Mr. Harry must be a very loyal secretary."Then Marius lets out a chuckle."He is. But he is not just a secretary. Harry is also a good friend of mine."That makes me pause. "Really?"He leans back in his chair slightly and nods. "Yeah. We were classmates back in college. Harry wasn't like the others. He did not flatter me because I am an Alpha or because of my family name. He was blunt and direct. Harry also called me out when needed."I glance at him and feels a little surprised but interested. "And you liked that?""Of course." Marius replied before giving me a shrug. "It was refreshing. I w

Georgina Sinclair's POV:We move from the heavy silence of the living room to one of the mansion's more private offices. The air is tighter and thicker here. It's like the whole office is now soaked in expectations and judgment.Alpha Robert sits behind the wide desk. Ryan is crossing his arms on his chest while standing near to the window. He looks oddly frustrated right now.Alpha Robert is sitting across from Danica in one of the chairs. Ver is just behind me. She's quiet but watchful but her presence feels steady at my back.The glass bottle is now placed on the table. In the amber light now, the bottle gives off a silent accusation."Now, Luna Georgina." Alpha Robert started. "I will only ask this once. What is the meaning of this concealment potion?" Then he slowly gestures to the bottle. "What exactly are you hiding from your Alpha and from us?"I draw a breath and readies myself to answer. But just as I part my lips to respond, Danica suddenly cries."I-It's my fault!" Danic

Georgina Sinclair's POV:Ver quietly follows me back to my room.She doesn't say much at first. Ver just closes the door behind us and watches me while I move toward the nightstand. The silence is thick and pressing. But I welcome it for a second."Luna, are you okay?" Ver carefully asked."Yeah." I replied. "I am okay."My voice even sounds hollow to me.I grab the glass next to the water pitcher on the vanity. I am wrapping it in my fingers awkwardly. But the glass slips from my shaking hands and breaks on the floor. The fragments scatter across the wooden floor."I..." I started but my voice falters. My hands are still shaking. Ver hurries over and moves me away from the shards. "Do not move," Luna said while grabbing a small broom and dustpan from the corner cabinet.I watch her crouch down and sweep the glass away. My hands are still trembling. My breathing is shallow.I know I made the right decision back there. I know I want this. I need this. To leave and to finally take bac
