The Perfect Luna by Marissa Gilbert

Chapter 48. The Summit Part II

Brayden desperately tried to get into her mind and this time she let him.

“Riannon,” he growled, grasping her hand again, “What have you done?”

“A lot of things. For example, I helped to create a very good law,” she tried to call Onyx as well. Right now her sharp claws would have been of great use in helping her free herself.

“Ri, what is going on?!” He sounded as if he was on the verge of breaking mentally.

“You will find this out right now,” she said coldly, “And now let me go. People are watching. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)You already made a spectacle of yourself when you voted against the law you personally wrote according to your own words. That was stupid.”

“Ri,” he wanted to say something else but Gideon started speaking again and she shut him off, finally getting her wrist back as he unclenched his fingers.

“The next issue to deal with for today is a divorce between a Luna and an Alpha,” the Lycan king announced, and a wave of whispers went through the room. Some were not surprised, of course, some were shocked and some were openly displeased. Zack Morgan

gave Riannon a reassuring smile and the werecat next to her looked at her with amusement on

her face.

“For real?” she snorted quietly, “You are something, Riannon Thorn!”

“What is the reason for the divorce?” an Alpha she did not know too well asked.

“Breach of their marital contract,” Gideon lazily tilted his head to look at the one who spoke, “The Alpha in question and his Luna were chosen mates. They marked each other. Yet the Alpha met his true mate and did not reject her. He brought her to their house and made them leave together.”

“This is not how it happened!” Brayden gritted through his teeth as now everybody in the conference room was concentrating their attention on him. The rumours of their story spread fast and the law project only accumulated them.

“Right,” the lycan chuckled, “Since Alpha Thorn spoke first, why wouldn’t he explain to us what all that was about and how it really happened, since I don’t have the right information at my disposal. We are listening to you.”

“Roxanne was abused in her old pack. She would have died if I had left her there.” Bray

said, carefully choosing his words. He already realized what kind of trouble he was at and

crystals of sweat were trickling down his spine.

“And that’s an honourable thing to do,” one of his buddies tried to support him.

“Indeed,” Brayden agreed, “ you could still have rejected her, though. And not bring her to  for her to stay. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)But you chose this place to be your house. The one that you share with your Luna. What did you expect to happen?”
