Chapter 66: *“It’s a simple question.”

“It’s a simple question.” Alpha Andrew said when Sarah didn’t speak after several moments. “I’m quite familiar with that particular necklace and would like to know how you obtained it.”

Sarah had been quiet because she was trying to come up with a believable lie. There was no way Sarah was going to tell the Alpha just how she got ahold of the necklace.

“If you don’t mind me asking Alpha Moonstar,” Bettina said, gaining everyone’s attention. “How are you familiar with this necklace?”

Like Bettina had just fallen into a trap he set. “The design of the pendant was originally designed by my eldest Damien. Then we commissioned the Kuznetsov’s to make it.”

“Inscription?” Bettina asked, weakly.
