A Broken Contract (Alpha's Secret Regret) novel Chapter 29

Megan Deere

As Meg and Luna Reign drove down from the helipad, Meg already prepared herself mentally to be near Nick. They were in Orphic now and have just entered his resort. She decided that the town is as pathetic as the Luna described. It was a little too laid-back for a city she-wolf like herself.

Although, this opinion didn't apply to Rain resort. To her, the place feels like a wonderland in a boondocks even from the outside. It was easy to guess that the proposed park would be connected to it. The lobby is as elegant as it should be and not as scanty as she expected. But then, this type of getaway couldn't be meant for people of this town. It's the type of city people with deep pockets come to unwind.

One of the security guards recognized the Luna on sight and was now leading them up the private elevator.

“Does he know you're coming? I'm only asking because he’s out of town for a meeting. He may return to L.A instead of here once he’s done, Luna!” the guard informed.

Meg thought the male seem a little uncomfortable. Well, he should be. He smelled someone Richard picked up from the wild. A former rogue, maybe.

Did they adopt him into the pack?

“So my surprise visit is a bad move, huh? Is that what you’re saying?” the luna asked in a casual, playful tone.

The guard gave a half smile and lowered his head in submission.

“He never did like surprises, so it's not like I didn't know,” she added.

Within moments, the swift elevator reached the top-most floor. It gave the familiar soft chime and started to slide open.

Beta Jake Carlisle was the first to come into view as they entered the impressive living room.

“Luna Reign?”

He seemed shocked and a little bit discomposed. Meg thought she saw him glare at the guard for a moment.

"Beta, you didn't go with him?" The luna asked.
