A Broken Contract (Alpha's Secret Regret)

Elise Reign

The Luna halted on her way up the airstairs. She was overcome with that familiar stirring that she felt when she first entered this town. The feeling she caught when they were stopped by that police car. A scent accompanied it this time. One she was now acquainted with. Her breathing hitched, but she didn't dare turn around to look.

'Get it together, Elise,' she cautioned herself silently.

As she got into the jet, she caught sight of the one person that threatened her general composure.

The Sergeant was racing towards the waiting private jet as she lowered herself to the seat.

Her heart sped up again, and her palms went clammy as she watched him through the windshield. The pilot was ready to take off.

"Hayes, hang on," she ordered.

"What could the policeman want?" Hayes scoffed, wondering aloud. He was undoubtedly irritated with the delay.

"Beats me," the Luna replied absently. "And so early in the morning, too."

The Sergeant was now arguing with the human guards as they tried to stop him from coming near the plane. He flashed his barge, but they didn't care.

She took a deep, purposely breath to control the thumping in her chest.

Wait, why was she afraid? She had nothing to fear, she assured herself. He didn't recognize her. That much was clear. He was here for something else.

She watched as the men stood their ground, threatening to forcefully escort him from the hellipad if he didn't leave immediately. One of them was already on the phone. Elise knew he was calling the Sergeant's boss.

She had ordered Mae, her most-trusted gamma, to remain in Orphic for a few hours. She was to do a bit of background check on this policeman. But right now, the Luna doubted the necessity of that command.

"I'm curious about what he wants. Lemme go find out," she said to Hayes, rising from her seat.

As she reached the door, she called out, "Is there a problem?"

"Yes, ma'am, I'm here to ask you a few questions about a kidnapping!" The man replied harshly.

That's why he chased her here? To prove to his little crush that he was a hardworking policeman? Elise gave a short laugh as she descended the stairs to meet him.

Did he know that the father of that girl's child was back in her life?

Her jaw tightened as she recalled the omega again. The image of her son speaking to the girl like he meant to take away all her worries made her want to spit.

The Luna had nightmares over that picture. She wanted to smash something whenever she recalled how Nick had stood up for the girl.

It's because of the kid, nothing more,

she assured herself. The Reigns

were like that with their pups. Her Nick couldn't possibly be in love with that pitiful omega. Something Kad to be done, she promised herself.

The Luna decided she would worry about Sara James and her bastard once she settled the problem in front of her right now.

"Sergeant, what brings you here?" she asked while signalling the two men to give them privacy.

"How do you know I'm a Sergeant?" the young man asked with a frown.

"I had you checked out."

She was determined to make sure he didn't see a trace of agitation in her. And with her usual cold, self-possessed exterior, it was hard to go wrong. "Why would you have me checked out?"

"Because you threatened me, Sergeant, remember?"

He seemed distracted for a moment as he watched her.

"You kidnapped Sara and her child!" was all he said after a moment's pause.

"Do you have proof? Are you here to arrest me?"

She concluded that cold and calm was working out great for her. He was mildly intimidated now despite the anger and hatred he was trying to show her. "Well?" She asked, feigning impatience.

"You need to come to the station with me, ma'am," he replied.

"Tell you what, Sergeant," she said. "Come back with an arrest warrant. Maybe I'll be in town, maybe I won't. If not, come to L.A."

She turned around and started to return to the jet waiting.

"I have a plane to catch if you have nothing else to say."

The Luna felt ill. A cold sweat broke

out on

erforehead. But with an iron

ill, she remained composed and

dignified as she climbed Y

into the private jet.

The child recognized her. There was no doubt in her mind. Her lost pup. That look in his eyes proved he didn't follow her out here for the omega's sake. He came to confirm what he felt the first moment their eyes met.
