The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 133

Aurora's POV

"Who could have thought that a trusted servant in this Pack would turn out to be a traitor?" My father asked Alpha Bane as they conversed.

I sat on a sofa in the throne room, close to where Alpha Bane and my father sat as they talked about what had happened earlier.

I wasn't in the mood for too much talk so I just decided to watch them talk and listen very closely to whatever they had to say.

I was as shocked as my father upon knowing that Ivan had a hand in all that was going on. He always seemed to me as someone so innocent. He never looked like a threat. Not even for once. I couldn't quite get why he'd betray this family and the Pack at large. He was well taken care of.

"The young man confessed to everything that he did," Alpha Bane revealed. "He told me that he connived with Sophia to set her free from the dungeon but he was not alone."

"He couldn't have been alone," my father affirmed. "There must have been someone on the outside who paid him to do it."

"Well, you're right about having someone on the outside who got him to do his bidding," Alpha Bane smiled. "But he wasn't paid for it. He did it out of his free will."

"Why would he do that?"

"Because he claims to be in love with Sophia! What a joke! How can any man be in love with such a woman? To make it worse, he knows that she doesn't love him. Yet, somehow, he believed that it was going to change and that she was eventually going to fall in love with him. Now, where is she and where is he?"

My father bowed his head and I knew he was sad. As much as Sophia was all that Alpha Bane suggested, she was still his daughter and I could tell he still loved her so much despite all she did to him.

"The outsider; the one who worked with Ivan to free Princess Sophia. Who is he?" My father asked, raising his head and looking at Alpha Bane.

"It's Dylan; just like I had suspected…"

"Dylan?" Asked my father with his mouth wide open. Mine was open too as I didn't expect that.

That combination only proved one thing; there was certain danger lurking and we had to prepare even better because Dylan knew all about his Pack while Sophia knew all about ours. Whichever Pack they'd decide to attack, they were surely going to have an idea of how to go about it and it was bad for everyone.

"Yes, Dylan. They are working together and they plan to attack soon. The attack is to happen in my Pack and not here. That was their plan according to Ivan."

"What if he was lying? What if Ivan is still trying to deceive you?"

"He's not. I could see on his face that he was being honest. I made sure of that," Alpha Bane assured him. "Now that we've solved this mystery about how Sophia was able to disappear from her cell very mysteriously, it's time for us to head back to my Pack but we won't be going alone. We'll be going with Ivan since he's now a traitor to both Packs."

"I'd rather he stays here," objected my father. "I'd love to keep an eye on him."
