Rise of the Rejected Luna

I glared at Alpha Kaene, gulping down hard. "What do you mean I'm not leaving this mansion until we come to an agreement?"

His smile was as cold and lovely as frost on a windowpane. "Well..."

He spread those sturdy hands of his. "...maybe because my future depends on it."

I raised an incredulous eyebrow. "How does keeping me prisoner, just like you've done to my brother, affect your future?"

"That's none of your business."

I didn't know which was more provoking – the fact that he just eyed me with disdain or how he stepped further inside, making himself feel at home like he owned the place.

Well, technically—he did.

I had to bite back my retort.

"And what about my brother? What happens to him after I accept this so-called diabolical deal?"

Alpha Kaene's gaze locked onto mine. "If you agree to my deal, I'll see to it that he's set free."

Whoa... now, that was easy in a not-so-easy way. I pondered his words and weighed my options.
