Crippled Luna's Farewell Half A Life Without My Alpha's Deadly Deception novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47 

Sarah glanced at Megan, offering a perfunctory now. 

Timm, I suppose,” she replied coolly, her tone dismissive. 

She kept her eyes fixed on her notes, her hands busy arranging papers in front of her 

That face, no matter how striking, had long since lost its charm for her. 

To Sarah, it wasn’t about his looks anymore, the coldness that lay beneath his exterior had dulled arry allure he might have once held 

Megan gave her a startled look, her brows knitting together. 

“Really? You’re not even a little interested?” 

“Nope,” Sarah replied simply, flipping through her notes, 

The meeting commenced soon after. While Megan found herself stealing glances at Arnold, her thoughts meandering with curiosity and admiration, Sarah remained steadfastly focused, 

She listened intently, occasionally jotting down notes with precision. 

The discussions revolved around border patrol strategies, diplomatic relations, and an upcoming event that required coordination. 

When the meeting finally concluded, Sarah stood, her hands moving deftly as she gathered the materials she had prepared. 

As she handed them out, the beta Cody chuckled and remarked: 

“Your notes are always spot–on, Sarah. Makes the rest of us look sloppy.” 

Sarah smiled faintly. “Just doing my part,” she replied, sliding a neatly organized stack of papers toward him. 

Across the room, Megan froze in place, staring at the blank notebook in front of her. 

Her stomach sank as she realized she hadn’t recorded anything during the meeting. 

Leaning closer to Sarah, she peeked at her notes, and her jaw nearly dropped. 

The detailed entries were not only comprehensive but also filled with terms and observations Megan couldn’t immediately 

grasp. 

It was a stark reminder of just how demanding the role she was set to inherit truly was. 

After the room emptied, Megan turned to Sarah, her voice tinged with both curiosity and respect. 

“How do you do it? You make this all look so easy.” 

“It’s not easy,” Sarah replied matter–of–factly. 

“I’ve kept up my training every day.. working on strength, speed, and endurance. I’ve also studied diplomacy and mastered several languages to communicate with humans who cross our borders accidentally. It’s a lot of work, but it’s necessary.”

Megan stared at her, wide–eyed. 

“I had no idea you were juggling so much.” She hesitated before adding, “Are you sure I can handle this? You’re so capable, Sarah. I feel like I’m nowhere near your level.” 

“You’ll get there,” Sarah said, her tone firm but not unkind. “It just takes time and effort.” 

Just then, Cody approached. “Sarah, could you make some evening primrose tea and take it to Arnold? He seems to like how you prepare it.” 

Sarah’s body stiffened at the request. 

Memories of her last interaction with Arnold flashed in her mind, and she shook her head. “No.” 

Cody blinked in surprise. “No? You’ve never refused before.” 

“It’s not part of my job description,” Sarah replied evenly, her tone leaving no room for debate. 

The room seemed to pause for a moment, Cody staring at her in disbelief. 

Megan, meanwhile, watched silently, her admiration for Sarah growing as she saw a woman who, despite her struggles, maintained her boundaries with strength and grace. 

Before, Sarah had made the tea out of love, care, and obligation as Arnold’s wife. 

Preparing his favorite tea had been her way of showing affection. 

But those days were long gone. Her role had changed, and so had her heart.
