Suzie fell silent when she heard that Shannon refused to acknowledge her. She looked shaken, like someone who had just been betrayed. After a moment, she lowered her head, defeated.
Darren told the maid to help Luna sit on the sofa. From his expression, I could tell he thought everything was already over.
He truly underestimated a woman's heart.
"Is the alpha really kidnapped?" Suzie asked softly.
Luna grew agitated again the moment Suzie mentioned her husband.
Darren answered quickly before Luna could explode. "Yes. No one knows where the alpha is or what condition he's in. But even if he returns, he will never be alpha again. He will be punished for his affair with you."
"No!" Suzie shouted. "The alpha must remain alpha. He cannot be punished because of our relationship. That would be unfair!"
The veins on Darren's forehead bulged. "Unfair? What you did was adultery—"
SLAP!
