Chapter 12

"This was what you chose, Alpha Kylian," Della coldly stated.

I hated the way she addressed me, saying my name as if she only knew me as the Dark Moon Alpha. A tinge of sadness spread through my chest as I thought back to all those times she called out to me, her tone soft and loving, but no longer.

"You chose her. You betrayed me. Isn’t that right?"

My face darkened. I had looked everywhere for her without finding her and never would have expected her to appear in front of me alone. And of her own accord, for that matter. She had even heard the lie I told Oliver, who shifted his gaze unsteadily between the two of us.

Knowing better than to worsen the precarious situation, he gave me a quick pat on the shoulder and said, "I think you two need to talk this out, so I won't bother you. Hope everything’s okay."
