Michael angrily stood before me and blocked my view of the Luna's tears.
"How dare you mention how your good son hurt my mate? Have you forgotten?"
Alpha John reached out and pulled the Luna back. He looked scared of Michael. Everyone else in the house was watching our argument. I tugged at Michael's shirt from behind, telling him not to be so fierce. We didn't come here to fight. There was no need to make things so tense.
Michael took a deep breath and looked away from Alpha John and the Luna. "I wanted to know your son's life directly, but... Well, you should thank my kind mate. She stopped me, so I promised her I'd let your son go. You should be ashamed of what your son did to Cecily and how she repaid his kindness."
Both Alpha John and the Luna looked at me.
Their eyes looked complicated, especially the Luna's. There was a strange light in her eyes. There was joy, regret, sadness, and even resentment, but I was sure there was no gratitude.
