Chapter 4

Harper was frozen on her spot.

There was a very panícky look on her face.

Yet Daran didn’t notice her reaction. He was still deep into his thoughts.

When Janet and Harper were abducted by rogues, the Diaz called him because they didn’t have that much cash at hand.

So he immediately asked his Beta to prepare that 200 million and send the money to the Diaz.

Yet weirdly, only Harper returned safe and sound.

Janet was nowhere to be found.

When his own army arrived, they couldn’t even locate Janet’s body. It was like she completely vanished on Earth.

Daran always believed that Janet was alive, which was why he continued searching for her over the 6 months.

He didn’t want Janet as his Luna, but he also didn’t want her to die.

And one thing kept baffling him over all these times-

Why did those rogues release Harper but keep Janet specifically?

It didn’t make any sense.

Harper gulped down nervously and forced out a smile, “Don’t let such small things bother you Alpha. You know Janet. She has always been narrow–minded. She was probably just getting back at you because you rejected her, especially since she now has Alpha Casper behind her back.”

Daran furrowed and shook those thoughts out of his mind.

“Let’s go. The opening gala was about to begin,” he said coolly.

Daran walked away.

When he was not looking, a vicious look finally appeared on Harper’s face.

Harper couldn’t help but clenched her fists in fury.

Janet…that lucky bitch!

She couldn’t let Janet come between her and Daran right now. She was so close to making him marry her!

She had to find a way to sabotage Janet’s image in front of Daran again…

The opening gala began at 7 p.m.

The grand hall was packed with Alphas and officers from packs across the world.

As the host of the night, Casper first made a welcoming speech. Then he came to Janet and took her hand into the dancefloor.

With beautiful music playing in the background, they danced the first song.
