Read Luna on The Run – I Stole The Alpha’s Son Chapter 43 – Elena POV

A Week Later

 

I was on the brink of going insane; Axton had hooked up the house phone the night of our argument. We also hadn’t seen Khan since, and we knew he was suppressing his wolf.

A week passed, and I waited expectantly for Khan to re turn, only he didn’t, and after a few days, I gave up. We could smell the sleeping pills seeping out of his pores.

So for the past two days, we have been plotting our es cape. He should have left the house phone cut off because that was his undoing, and I believe the only reason he left it on was so I had no reason to try to escape if I could speak with, my mother freely. More fool on him, I have been speaking with her, and we had been devising my escape daily.

All day I sat by the phone, waiting to hear if she was able to pull it off behind my father’s back. He had her on house ar rest, too, she never said much of what happened when she re turned home, and I could only imagine. I tried to convince her to leave with me, but my father must know something was up because she said Luke never left his side, and she won’t go without him. Hearing the phone’s musical ringtone, I rush to ward it, snatching it off its holder.

“Hello?”

“We have guests coming for dinner tonight. I left a dress for you on the foot of my bed. Put it on, and make yourself presentable. Tierney will be by to help you cook at five,” Axton tells me before hanging up. I stare at the screen as the screen blinks, flashing green and red. “Great, whoever these people are, we now have to play house for appearance purposes. I wonder if he plans to fake our death when the twins are born?” Lexa growls in my head. I go to place the phone down, only for it to ring again. I checked the number and determined not to answer it if it was Axton’s number. Seeing it is my moth er’s, I answer, holding the phone to my ear.

“You’re leaving tonight, be ready,” my mother says into the phone.

“Mum?”

“Axton has organized a council meeting. Tierney will be by to help you.”

“Wait, Tieriny from your pack?” I asked her. I recognized the name when Axton said it but didn’t think he meant the same person. Having said that, she did own a well-established restaurant with a five-star rating on neutral territory and was the main place the Council used for functions. However, I was shocked Axton would keep her on the council books.
