Zora’s POV
Although my talk with Alpha Jake was very heated, I was happy that both of us were able to reach an agreement. While I realized that I was being pretty tough, I had to make sure that my points were clear. Furthermore, I also needed him to realize that I already helped him a lot by not asking Darius to find out more about my poisoning incident.
The fact that I was expecting by the time the poisoning happened could be concluded as a treason. From the deepest part of my heart, I did wish that our plan would run smoothly so that both my mate and I could plan our weddings in peace. Still, Alpha Jake looked very sad after our talks when Nellie came to join us. This time, she no longer had those dark circles. In fact, Darius‘ mother looked very excited. Not to mention that she also looked stunning.
“I hope that I didn’t take my time way too long?” she asked as she sat next to Alpha Jake while she was showing her lovely smile at all of us.
Nevertheless, it felt weird that Nellie was the only one who was smiling after the hard talk I had with Alpha Jake before. Soon enough, Nellie understood that she was the only one who felt very happy. Thus, the woman stopped smiling.
“What’s wrong?” she asked.
Although I didn’t wish to talk about it, Alpha Jake gave the answer for Nellie’s question.
“Luna Zora assumed that my daughter, Iris, must’ve tried to murder her by poisoning her to pay back at your son for not choosing my daughter. Also, Luna Zora also believed that Iris might be working with the traitor. That

was why Luna Zora asked me to bring my daughter to be interrogated,” the Alpha said, concluding from our talks before.
Meanwhile, Darius‘ mother just nodded her head.
“Well, the poisoning part was indeed true. Luna Zora was poisoned at your pack, Jake. I could see that. In fact, we had to bring a doctor to clean her body,” Nellie responded to Alpha Jake whose fears in his eyes became even clearer.
While the man secretly wished that it was all nothing but an accident, the man realized that it might not be an accident at all after he heard that the former lady of the north said the same thing like I said before.
“If my daughter is found guilty, I don’t know what I’ll do. After all, she’s my only daughter,” Nellie said as she caressed the Alpha’s hand softly.
“They’re all grown ups, Jake. We’ve done as best as we could by raising them and giving them the best things. We’ve taught them what’s right and what’s wrong and we’ve also tried to help them. If they choose to split from what we’ve taught in their adulthood, we shouldn’t put ourselves to blame. Eventually, they’re free from our grips. When we’re gone, they’ll still live. The best thing that we can do is praying for the best things to happen to them and hoping that they’ll learn from their mistakes. As parents, we can’t give more than we’ve given. You shouldn’t feel bad for this, Jake. You already tried very hard. If Iris eventually chooses to be like her mother, it’s not your mistake at all,” Darius‘ mother tried to calm the man down, but it still failed.
After all, the man was in a difficult situation.
“I think it’s time for Liam to help us find out the people who threatened him,” I told them as I rose from my seat, trying my best to prevent any
weird situation.
Immediately, everyone agreed to it. After that, I told Brian Wilson through the mind–link to help put everyone in this estate in line so that

Liam could smell the perpetrators out. It took Brian 30 minutes to bring Liam here. Soon enough, the man told me back through the mind–link that he already brought Liam. Then, I got up again as I asked everyone to go with me to the eastern garden, where the rest of the people of the estate were already expecting our arrival.
After that, we walked to the garden quietly. I really hoped that this would result in something. Besides, we had to get as many people as possible to either force the people or person behind the king who caused ruckus to us to get out or make them go silent. Either result would be way better compared to what was happening right now.
As soon as I arrived at the eastern garden, I was shocked to see that there were lots of people here, alongside the trophies, that were queuing to be checked. Every one of them seemed to be anxious and puzzled.
Some of the Lunas in the service even stared at me with eyes full of hatred, but I didn’t care about me. After all, they all saw me as someone terrible. I was sleeping with the man who overtook my own pack. Any Lunas from the outside would consider me, Kara, and Eloise as traitors. However, they didn’t know the real story behind it. Besides, we didn’t care enough to explain to them.
Whether I was terrible or not, all I could gaze upon was lots of envious Lunas that were unlucky. I was sure that they would happily do it if Darius, Marcel, or Raphael ordered these Lunas to join them to their beds. The thought of it already caused me to chuckle at how angry they
were.
Finally, Liam was brought here by Brian. This was the first time for me to see him well. Indeed, he was just a child. How could the people who hid behind the king let this happen? In a way, The leader of the rebellion surely didn’t care about life or innocent lives if this leader ever succeeded in overthrowing Darius. After all, making a minor to be entangled with such traitorous acts was very reckless and merciless. If we ever caught whoever was behind the king, I already made up my mind to voice my opinion to that jerk. After that, the people started to talk when they all

saw Liam. While some of them were truly confused, others looked upset.
“Be quiet!” Kara shouted at them, causing those people called to the eastern garden hesitantly to quieten down.
“If there’s any noise, that person will be put into confinement. Any disrespect will never be accepted. We’ve been asked to take a rein on such an important task. We intend to do so ardently without any obstacles. Are we clear?” Eloise asked, then there was a total silence.
It meant that those people already understood what Eloise had said.
Just then, Brian William approached me. The man told me that my mate. Darius, asked for Liam to be brought to the lounge. When I found out that both Casey and Hardy were around, it gave me mixed feelings. I hoped that they would set aside their differences in order to find mutual understanding to join Darius to fight the rebellion movement that had been going on.
Eventually, I told Brian to take Liam with him to be brought to Darius before I asked them to bring the little boy back here immediately. Brian quickly brought the boy away. But we still had to act fast because I had to ask Amy. As long as that bitch was involved, I didn’t plan to play nice After I saw what that woman did to her own son. I realized that she could never be trusted. In fact, she didn’t even deserve to be freed. I already made up my mind to let her feel pain. Frankly, I wouldn’t regret that.
‘What happened with Liam?” Kara asked me through the mind–link.
‘Both Casey and Hardy are here. I guess Darius wants to hear straight from that boy,‘ I replied through the mind–link back, causing Kara’s eyes to be widely opened.
After that, my friend just nodded.
‘How do you handle this, Zora? The three of them are crazy for you. Will they be able to forget their differences in order to cooperate? I know

Casey has it rough and that Hardy guy doesn’t seem too different from your ex–husband. Poor Darius! I can’t help but wonder how it feels to have to lean on the two men who’re likely to despise him the most in order to support him going back to the autocratic system,’ Kara voiced her opinion through the mind–link again, prompting me to sigh because my friend was telling me the truth.
“Isn’t that Amy Zakharov’s son?” Alpha Jake then asked me, which interrupted both Kara and I.
I quickly nodded my head.
“Yeah,” I told the man who immediately widened his eyes.
“He’s only a child,” the man stated before he stared at us as if we had done something dreadful.
“I know. That’s why he’s not in the council prison,” I responded to the Alpha, sounding firm.
“His mother had that little boy involved. In fact, her mother and the traitors used that boy to run his father and the Northern Alphas. Not only that, little Liam also aided them in receiving and transferring money,” I continued to tell the man whose eyes got even wider with shock.
“You don’t mean that.” Alpha Jake responded in shock, causing me to nod my head.
“That bitch made up her mind to take advantage of her own son in the worst way possible. The only reason this boy is still alive is because he’s young,” I told the Alpha grimly while Nellie hissed angrily at what I said.
