Chapter 76
Kylie POV
I licked my l*ps. “That’s why I want Liam to stay in his senses,” I said, turning towards Logan. “If you’ll torture him, he will lose it. And I need him to speak against Graham in the High Council. Even without Zoe, we can win this case.”
He shook his head. “Kylie, if you want, I will spare him for a few days. But what makes you think he will accept his crime?”
“Logan is right,” grandfather supported him. “Liam will never confess to his crime, because that would mean that he would be thrown in the dungeons of the High Council, and the dungeons of the High Council are notorious for their hellish conditions. Nothing you can even think of. As a matter of fact, if his case is not proven, we will have to grant him freedom.”
I gasped. “No! Please don’t do that.”
Grandfather exhaled roughly. “Those are the laws, Kylie. My hands are tied. So whatever you do, do it with caution.”
I pursed my l*ps, feeling defeated already. Logan brought his hand and placed it on my thigh beneath the table. “Don’t worry, love. We’ll find something against Graham.”
“Have you sent wolves to hunt her?” I asked him.
Ace intervened, “Yes, Luna Kylie. I have sent my wolves everywhere to hunt her, but she is still at large. However it is early and she could be hiding anywhere.”
Is it possible that she has gone into the human world?” Katy mused.
I shook my
head. “I highly doubt that. She is pregnant, without money, and she is at the risk of being identified and killed. The human towns are very far. She won’t venture on that side.”
“You can’t be sure about that snake!” Katy snapped. “I hope I catch her before you guys catch her. I swear, I’m going to make her pay for her sins like hell!”
Even though Katy looked furious, I couldn’t help a feeling of warmth surging through my chest. She was my best
1/4
friend and now my sister-in-law, and now she supported me with full might.
“Enough tiger!” Ace chided her. “You’ll get to play with your prize after I’ve caught her.”
I chuckled. I think Ace was into Kylie more than he cared to admit it.
“Anyway,” Logan interrupted the conversation. “So about the honeymoon.”
“Oh! Where are you going for it?” Grandfather asked, and I blushed again. “Why don’t you go to our island in the Mediterranean? If you want, I can also let you go to our Bahamas island, which I bought for your grandma.”
My eyebrows shot to the hairline. Grandfather had bought an island for his wife? And this family had an island in the Mediterranean?
Logan shook his head. “I am taking my Kylie to a secret hideaway and she has agreed for two days.”
“I didn’t agree with it at all!” I whined.
“Now, don’t lie, love,” Logan exclaimed. “You just agreed. Didn’t she, Katy?”
“Yes, she agreed!” Katy nodded vehemently.
“What Katy says,” Ace said, sighing and looking at her with puppy eyes even though no one asked for his opinjon.
As soon as breakfast was over, Logan and Ace went to the office while I went back to the bedroom with Katy. I took her hand in mine and made her sit on the bed. “You better tell me what is going on between you and Ace,” enquired, curiosity killing me.
She blushed and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. “It’s nothing…”
“It can’t be anything!” I said, exasperated. “Why are you hiding it?” She lowered her head and fidgeted with her fingers. I curled my fingers beneath her chin, forcing her to lift her face. Her eyes were red as tears pooled. “Katy?” I hugged her immediately. “Tell me everything. Please.” I rubbed her back gently until she settled down.
When he pulled away from me, she took a deep breath in. “Ace’s parents are against this marriage.”
“Whoa! Why? Does Logan know about it?” Her words took me by surprise. She was the daughter of the most powerful Alpha in North America, granddaughter of the Head of the Elder Council and Ace’s parents didn’t see
that?
She shook her head. “Please don’t tell him anything.” Wiping her tears, she looked away. “His mother wants him to marry their business partner’s daughter. He has refused to marry her, though.”
I blinked at her with my mind stuttering. “Excuse me, but your brother is wealthier than God. I mean, if this is about money, then you are way more richer than Ace.”
“I wish it was about money. There’s something I can’t put my finger on, but I don’t care.”
This was the first time Katy had opened up with me. I didn’t ask her more questions because I didn’t want to push her and make her feel uncomfortable. “Okay, so do you want me to deal with it?”
“Hell no!” she snapped. “At least not now.”
I grabbed her hand and
Used mine around it. “I am there if you need me, okay?”
She smiled, and I wrapped her again in my hug.
Logan drove me to his secret hideout, and I was surprised that it was in the middle of nowhere. Nestled deep in the forest, he had a beautiful log cabin. Surrounded by trees on all sides, it was secluded. A cobbled pathway led. to a porch where there was a swing. “It’s beautiful!” I exclaimed as he picked up my luggage and walked behind
me.
“I built it long back,” he said with a grin as I
back from the college that day.”
PORTALocked the door with the key. “I was extremely angry after I came
“Which day?” I asked as I walked inside. The cabin was cozy and smelled of polished wood. On the right was a small open kitchen with
an island table, and on the left was a small living room. He went ahead and disappeared into a room. I followed him into the bedroom that had a double bed in the center and other minimal furniture.
The day I met you in college,” he said.
I gasped.
He turned to look at me intensely. “That day, I just wanted to let my steam off and the idea of having s*x with anyone other than you was repulsive. So I informed Ace that I was not coming back to the pack. Instead, I ran here and-” He pursed his l*ps and waved at the cabin with both hands. “And this happened.”
Emotions choked my throat. I ran to him, and he pulled me up immediately, locking my thighs around his waist. “Alpha Logan, this is the perfect place for our honeymoon.” And I slammed my l*ps to his.
After I k*ssed him, he rested his forehead on mine. “Blaze is dying to meet his mate. He wants to hunt with Coral?”
“Coral also wants to be with him…” I murmured.
It was dark outside, but both of us gave our skins to our wolves. Coral yelped as soon as she was out, wagging her tail as Blaze just stood there confidently, letting her do what she wanted to. She licked Blaze and then darted towards the forest. Blaze followed her closely behind.
He hunted a bunny for her and dropped it at her feet as an offering. She picked up the bunny and carried it to stow it under a tree. What she did after that was absolutely shocking.
Coral went to stand in front of Blaze and turned around. With her ass in his face, she presented herself to him. Blaze let out a dangerous rumble before mounting her.
