Alpha King’s Lost Luna by Aubrey Pepper

Chapter 312 Silas BECKY After our conversation with Oliver Moses, Dickson and I had been seized by the Moses guards and taken into a room that appeared to be used for interrogation. The door was crafted from iron and there were no windows, so the room was dim and quiet. There were only a pair of chairs, each a little rickety and old-looking. It was a pathetic, desolate sort of place, which was surely on purpose.

Time didn’t make much sense in there and I soon couldn't figure out how long we’d been locked in. My body ached and my mind was spinning out with a million thoughts as I absorbed all of the information I'd heard in the past

couple of days.

I had thought Oliver Moses would quickly find out the truth or ask me to confront Adalyn again, but Dickson thought the opposite when I presented the idea to him.

“Look at this place, Becky,” he said, his voice gloomy and negative. “No one is going to visit us any time soon.” Sadly, he appeared to be correct, and his point was only proven as time went on. Though we had no clock or watch, or even sunlight to give us any indication, I had the sense we had been there for a while, and with every passing second, my resolve weakened.

I didn’t understand why Oliver Moses didn’t act. I thought I had been

convincing enough for him to let us £20 or at least let us out of there, We sat down for a bit to rest our aching legs but when I grew bored and tired of the silence, I went to the door and tried my hand at messing with the lock.

Unfortunately for me, it was impossible to manage with the cuffs around my wrists.

“I thought you had a way to open the locks on these things,” I murmured in annoyance as I faced Dickson.

He didn’t say anything but his cheeks darkened a little. His blue eyes were fixated on the ground and I grew confused at his demeanor.

“How were you able to sneak into the House of Moses?” I asked him as my eyebrows creased together.

“Dickson?” I prompted him again.
