    “I am not ying.” I answer the unspoken question that I know is on her mind.


    She nces down the stairs, almost as if she wants to scream for help, but I can


    already hear the sound of backup approaching.

    “Gaultier, is he your son, Agatha?” I ask, wondering if my sudden assumption might


    be true. After all, the rest of us were full siblings….


    Her eyes sh as she res at me. “I did not cheat on Aran if that is what you are


    trying to insinuate!” She snarls.


    “So, the answer is yes. Does Aran know? Or is he part of this all? Were you disloyal to


    him?”


    “I did nothing but be loyal to him!” she sneers. “But I picked the wrong King…for I


    knew that I would be the one blessed to birth two of the most important people for


    the future of the world.”


    I have not heard anywhere that she had ever been pregnant aside from with


    Sebastian…


    I frown. “Are you and Gerard mates?” I ask, narrowing my eyes.


    “Like I said, I have been loyal,” she hisses, her gaze dipping to the gun in my hand.


    I frown deeply. “But I am correct, am I not? So only true mates can birth the


    members of the Triquetras… Well, that answers something.” I say coldly.


    “But you have no way to prove anything, and I am still the elder Luna. I hold power here…” she says


    quietly before her eyes brim with tears just as the front door is brought down and several guards rush


    inside.


    “She doesn’t need to prove anything when I have heard enough.”


    We both turn to see Aran standing behind us. Agatha’s heart thumps as she begins


    shaking; this woman was an excellent actress.


    The guardse to a halt, looking at me for their next order.

    “Aran, don’t believe her!” she whispers, but despite her best efforts, she’s unable to


    hide the fear in her voice. “She tried to kill me!”


    “And yet… she is the one who is bleeding. What is going-”


    “Aran, she’s lost her mind!” she cuts him off.


    “I said, what is going on?! And I want Zaia to answer that question!” His eyes ze as


    he raises his hand as several of the guards rush through the door.


    “Zaia!” Jai is at the front, his heart thundering as he looks up at me.


    “Stand down, Zaia, let’s talk this out,” Aran says.


    “How about I show you instead?” I say as I reach into my pocket, keeping my gun pointing at Agatha as


    I pull out my phone, stopping the audio and ying it from the


    beginning.


    I forward it to the moment we entered her private lounge, letting every single person


    here hear our entire conversation, only skipping the part where she tells the reason why she was


    targeting Zion. That is something everyone doesn’t need to know.


    Silence falls as Agatha stares at Aran as if trying to deduce his reaction and, with


    every passing minute, I can sense his anger building.


    I let go of Agatha moving back as I clutch at my waist. I’m bleeding, but it would be


    far worse if the bullet wasn’t still lodged inside of me.


    “Aran please, it’s not true, there’s more to it. Let me exin.”


    “You have been on Sebastian’s side even after his departure! This is the final straw, I


    have had enough!” His words are cold, and I just wish I could tell him that Sebastian


    only did what he did to protect our daughter.


    “Agatha King, on the charges of liaising with the enemy: Poisoning an unborn child,


    poisoning me, so I could not conceive. Framing me for a false kidnapping by making


    a fake transfer from my bank. Endangering the pack and its people by cing cameras for the enemy


    and for being a traitor. You are found guilty and will be tried


    and punished for every single crime you havemitted.” I say, my voice strong in


    the silent hall as I lean back against the rail.

    Another traitor caught…


    Agatha stares at me, but I have no remorse for her.


    “You can’t do that…”


    “Oh, I can, and I have. You will never be free. Not for what you have done.” I reply


    coldly.


    “Aran! No! Tell her. You know me!”


    “The Alpha has spoken. It is up to her, Agatha… but I wish I knew why. Did I ever really know the real


    you? Seems not.” Aran says. I see the pain in his eyes before he


    turns his back on us.


    “Take her away, Jai, and make sure she is given more wolfsbane just in case she


    tries to mind link.”


    “You got it Alpha, but you need to go to the hospital, alright?” he says, ncing at my hand, which is


    now covered in blood.


    “I’ll be fine. I’ll shift, it’ll push the bullet out and I’ll heal faster,” I say quietly. “Mr King, may I have a


    word?”


    Aran nces at me and nods. “I think it’s high time we have a proper talk.”


    “I think so too.”
