Crippled Luna's Farewell: Half A Life Without My Alpha's Deadly Deception

Chapter 174

Arnold's driver had already stepped out, holding the door open. The moment he saw Sarah in his Alpha's arms, his eyes widened in shock.

"Luna?"

The word came out instinctively, before the driver could catch himself.

Sarah tensed, her fingers curling slightly. Luna? He was still calling her that?

Arnold ignored the driver's reaction and proceeded to place her into the backseat of the car. She immediately attempted to step out, her voice sharp.

"My car is nearby."

Arnold, however, leaned against the open door, his posture relaxed but his words anything but.

"Are you sure you can drive with a sprained foot?"

The question stopped her.

Before she could respond, another voice cut in.

"Alpha Arnold."

Dalton had approached, his usual composure still intact, but his eyes flickered between Arnold and Sarah with something akin to hesitation. He greeted Arnold with practiced politeness before turning his attention toward Sarah.

"Ms. Sarah, are you in there?"

Arnold, still standing at the car door, answered before she could.

"Yes," he said smoothly. "She sprained her foot, so I'm taking her to the doctor." Dalton's frown deepened slightly.
