Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 60

*****Elder Grigshade's POV*****

Ever since the Alpha went into that accident, I could not sleep well. We had done a business deal, one that had quite been successful and he had passed it on to Jace, his son.

I wanted Jace on that seat for a reason. No one knew I had personally talked to the Alpha few days before his accident. He had told me to take care of his children — Erika and Jace. There were some bad things happening, and I had feared for the Alpha.

Though he had not told me exactly what was bothering him, I had knew he was in trouble and if was not taken, he would lose his life. But I had not foresaw it to be this soon. He had passed the business to Jace which was why Jace and I worked in secret. The Alpha did not want his daughter to know about it.

For reasons known to him though. But I could understand him to an extent, it was not the kind of business a woman could handle. Even my daughter Tasyra would not be able to handle it, hence, she knew about the other businesses but not this.

It was too risky which was another reason why I did not want Erika to seat on that throne. I did not hate her but my butting of heads with her was the only way I knew I could protect her, but the Moon Goddess knew she was stubborn.

She was as tough as her dad. I had told Jace to go up against her but he had refused. He had no idea why I so badly wanted him on that seat. He was not in on anything, he was not aware of this business until it had flourished, and the Alpha introduced him to me.

The guy had great business sense, and was a very smart young man. And to me, anyone who could handle a business could actually be a ruler. I had watched him lead while others followed. It surprised me why he would not want to go against Erika.

I had my fears for Erika, and I would do anything within my power to make sure she did not become the Alpha, else she might end up like her father.

"She said she'll be with you soon, Elder Grigshade." The maid I had asked to get her for me reported.

I nodded. "Alright, I'll be waiting."

I would wait and if it was going to make us go another round, no problem. Also, she needed to release my daughter. The girl had done nothing to her.
