Semua Bab I Need You, My Luna: Bab 21 - Bab 30

MEGAN'S POV“Megan, are you sure you're doing perfectly well?” Alpha Elias’s deep, reassuring voice filters through the speaker of my phone.I press the phone closer to my ear and offer a small smile, even though he can’t see it. “I’m fine, Alpha. A few bruises here and there, but I’m doing much better now.”“That’s good to hear,” he says, the sound of papers rustling faintly in the background. “Vance told me what happened. That you were in an accident. I hate that you and he had to meet for the first time under such circumstances, and I wanted to hear from you directly that you’re truly okay.”I exhale slowly, my fingers tracing the material of my dress. “Yes, Alpha. I promise I’m alright. It could’ve been worse.”He clicks his tongue, clearly displeased. “Did you happen to recognize the face of the driver who hit you? Vance mentioned the car sped off before anyone could get a look.”I shake my head even though he can’t see me. “No, it all happened so fast. I didn’t see the driver’s

XARION'S POVMy company meeting wraps up smoothly, and I'm feeling pretty damn good about it. Three major investors just agreed to back our new territory expansion, which means more resources, more influence, and more stability for the pack.I shake hands with Harlow Hale, the lead investor, a sharp-eyed wolf in his fifties who's known for being ruthless in business but fair when you earn his respect."Excellent work, Alpha Xarion," Harlow says, clapping me on the shoulder. "I think this partnership is going to be very profitable for all of us.""Agreed," I reply with a firm nod. "I'm looking forward to it."The other two investors, Helena Graves and Davidson Stone, both nod in approval. Helena adjusts her designer glasses and smiles. "Shall we head somewhere more private to discuss the finer details? I know a great lounge nearby.""Sounds perfect," I say, gesturing toward the door. "Let's head out."I turn to Andrew, who's been standing near the conference table reviewing some docum

MEGAN'S POV"So the steel framework should be delivered by next week?" I ask Caitlin as we walk through the aisles of Prime Build Supply, one of Arkon's largest commercial buildings for construction materials and general supplies.Caitlin nods, flipping through her tablet. "Yes, ma'am. I've confirmed with the supplier. They're also throwing in a discount since we're ordering in bulk for the branch construction.""Good," I say, satisfied. "And the permits?""All cleared," she replies with a smile. "The Valemont sponsorship deal really opened doors for us. The council's been very cooperative."I can't help but feel a hint of pride. Winning that deal was a major milestone, and now things are finally moving forward. The new Stone Corporations regional branch is becoming a reality."Mommy, can we get gummy bears?" Makayla gently pulls on my hand, looking up at me with those big, pleading eyes."And chocolate," Maverick adds quickly, not wanting to be left out.I smile down at them. "We'll

XARION'S POVI don’t know what pisses me off more, what Megan told me Danielle did yesterday, or the fact that I even have to deal with it in the first place.I’m not furious, not yet. Just… extremely irritated. The kind of irritation that builds behind your ribs until you either confront it or explode.So, after meeting with the three investors I rescheduled yesterday, I drive straight to Danielle’s house.By the time I pull up, it’s close to sunset. I can hear music and laughter coming from inside.Perfect.She’s home. And judging by the noise, she’s not alone.I head straight for the front entrance and knock once, hard enough to be heard over the chatter.The door swings open, and Danielle’s face lights up with bright surprise the moment she sees me.She's wearing a tight red dress that leaves little to the imagination.“Xarion?” she says, her voice high and sweet. “What a surprise! I wasn't expecting you.”I don’t smile. “We need to talk.”Her eyes narrow as she leans her head. “I

MEGAN'S POVFor a second, I just stand there, frozen, staring at my phone like it's suddenly grown fangs.Xarion?What the hell does he want?"What do you want, Xarion?" I snap, my voice sharper than I intend. But honestly? I don't care. I've had a hell of a day, and the last thing I need is him calling me out of the blue like he has any right to."Megan…" he starts, his voice calm, but I cut him off immediately."What makes you think you can just call my phone now? Did I give you permission to contact me whenever you feel like it?"There's a pause on the other end, and I know he’s taking a second to decide how to answer."Please, calm down," he says gently, his tone frustratingly soft. "I saw the news. About the attack at Prime Build Supply. I was told you were there. With the twins."My heart gives a tight squeeze, but I refuse to let him hear it in my voice. "And?""And I needed to know if you were okay," he continues, his voice low and urgent. "Are you? Are the twins…""We're fin
