The Luna and her Quadruplet Pups by Jane Above Story

Chapter 159

3rd Person

Linda stalked into Ethan’s brightly lit hospital room, confusion and anger warring inside her. She wasn’t sure what to think after her conversation with Jane, but she knew she had to get to the bottom of things before it was too late. She pushed through the door without knocking, finding the Alpha seated grimly in his bed, staring out the window and looking as if the weight of the world was resting on his shoulders.

“What the hell, Ethan?” Linda demanded.

“Hello Linda.” He said blandly. “How’s Eric?”

“He’s going to be fine” She remarked curtly.” Jane on the other hand -“

“1 don’t want to talk about Jane.” Ethan snapped coldly.

Linda blinked. She hadn’t quite believed her friend until now. She thought Jane had surely misunderstood, or that some terrible miscommunication had occurred with the Alpha, she never imagined that Ethan had truly ended things with his mate. “It’s true then?” She gaped. “You dumped her?”

“You make it sound like we’re teenagers.” Ethan snipes. “Jane betrayed me. I gave her the opportunity to redeem herself, and she failed.”

“Bullsh!t!” Linda countered. “You might be able to sell that bollocks to Jane because she’s wounded enough to expect abuse – your fault, I might add.” She hissed. “lf you want to talk about betrayal, that would be the place to start!”

“It’s not bullsh!t.” Ethan’argued. “Jane and I tried to make it work but when push came to shove she let me down.”

“She let you down?” Linda repeated, completely incredulous. “Of all the ridiculous, insane things to come up with. What, did Aimon conk you on the head?

Have you had an aneurysm?”

“This really isn’t any of your business.” Ethan ground out, showing more emotion as his frustration grew. “What happened between Jane and l is private. I understand you care for your friend, but she isn’t innocent in all this. She lied, she went behind my back and she broke her promises.”

“Ethan, you are more in love with Jane, and more dedicated to your children than any man I’ve ever seen.

You’ve been fighting for Jane since day one.” Linda reminded him sternly.
