Chasing His Betrayed Luna by KiKi Jones

61. Finding Kyle

ALPHA RAIDEN

She has got to be kidding me!

"Are you bipolar?" I blurted before I could stop myself from offending her even more. I did her a favor. Telling Katie that Kyle was kidnapped was clearly a bad idea and it would have caused more issues for her to worry about but rather than thank me, she lashed out at me. In fact, she's kicking me out.

Aurelia's eyes widened and Lex chimed in my head, "Wrong move, Man."

"What did you say to me?" Aurelia asked. Her stance and scent made it known that she was more than ready to rip my head off.

bother to ask her those questions because I was tired of being the bad guy in Aurelia's story. I chose to respond to her first question though. "You should have told me because the boy was kidnapped! Dammit! His lungs could fail and I wouldn't know-" "Would it have changed anything? Aurelia interjected. "Would telling you have helped you find Kyle? It's been
