Contract With Alpha Logan by Misha K

Chapter 43

Kylie POV

My mind froze. The prisoner stopped and tilted his head to look at me. He smirked and stepped forward to clutch

the bars of his cell.

I dragged my gaze away from him because I had to focus on Shir, but why was it I had this feeling that he was. connected to this incident? From the corner of my eyes, I saw Zoe and Fenris coming inside. Unlike all other times, this time Zoe didn’t stand right next to Graham. She stood behind him at a distance.

“I won’t release him!” Graham growled. “He was caught selling secrets of the pack to that wolf.” He pointed to

the wolf in the next cell.

“Who caught him?” I asked.

“Our warriors. Zoe got a tip from someone and she informed me.”

I scoffed. “How convenient that is, isn’t it? Zoe gets a tip from someone that Shir is selling pack secrets to Alpha

Logan?”

“Luna Kylie, my sources have confirmed that Shir was selling the secrets to this wolf. And this is not the first time he has sold,” Zoe added in her defense.

I turned to look at her and narrowed my eyes. With my arms crossed tightly against my chest, I said to him, “Don’t you think this is the most ludicrous accusation you could make?”

She added, “We also know that the secrets were sold on your orders.”

“And where did Shir go to give these secrets?” I asked.

“At the pack’s borders on the east.”

I c o c k e d an eyebrow. “Oh!” I went to her and circled her. When I came to stand right in front of her, I said, “I knew you were dull, but I didn’t know you were so dull.”

She clenched her teeth hard. “How is that dull, Luna Kylie? I know you are feeling bad because you were directly involved in it, but you can’t just insult me like that.”

“Kylie, Zoe is right. You can’t insult her. Now that I have proof that you were involved in it, I can’t allow you to go anywhere. Until I decide, you can’t leave this pack and you have to prove your innocence,” Graham said in a

stern voice.

Though fear gripped me from within, I resolutely shook my head. “Graham, I didn’t know that she could take you as a fool so easily.” My words enraged him but I didn’t wait for him to react and continued, “Why would Shir sell pack’s secrets to that wolf and that too on the east of the Lunar pack’s border? Isn’t it where the Brownfur pack is?” When I mentioned the Brownfur pack, Zoe flinched a little, but it was so momentary that I thought I imagined it. “Shouldn’t he go to the west border, which is closer to the Nord pack?”

Graham’s throat bobbed, and he looked at Zoe for support. Zoe immediately intervened. “How do we know why

Shir and this wolf met on the east border?”

I turned to look at the wolf in the next cell. “What’s your name?” I asked.

“Quid,” he replied with a hint of a smile.

“So Quid, you met Shir on the east of the border to take the secrets which he could have easily delivered to you on the phone, right?” Quid’s smile faded. “I mean, doesn’t that show that Shir is extremely stupi d? He will go to sell the pack’s secrets on the east border where our wolves patrol at all times of the day. And how could a rogue even enter the borders of the Lunar pack without getting noticed by the patrolling party? Isn’t that just too

convenient?” I almost shouted.

Everyone around me, including a few warriors and councilors who had followed us to the dungeons, went silent.

Graham shifted in his place, feeling ridiculous. Zoe came to stand with him and held his hand. Her eyes with tears. “Alpha Graham, I don’t know what Luna Kylie is up to, but I only helped you catch the culprit.”

Graham removed his hand from her immediately, much to her dismay. He returned his attention to me. “Whatever you say doesn’t lessen the fact that Shir was involved in selling our pack’s secret. And I didn’t expect you to be involved!”

I tipped my head up and let out a laugh. “Graham,” I said. “First, why will I ask Shir to sell secrets of the Lunar pack to Alpha Logan? I am the Luna of the Lunar pack and have all the secrets right here in my mind,” I said, tapping my temple. “I can directly tell him everything, can’t I?”

Murmurs burst amongst spectators as Graham became uncomfortable. Zoe lowered her face as her face

reddened.

“Second, why would I ask Shir to give secret papers to this wolf called Quid, who I don’t know personally? Had you been in my shoes, you would have given such an important task to someone you didn’t even know?” Graham opened his mouth to say something, when I put my hand up to stop him. “And how did Shir connect with him? I mean, how did they know where to meet? I am sure there were some phone calls. Can you show me Shir’s phone, where I can see a log of his registered calls? Or should I ask the IT team to send me the details?”

This time, Graham’s face puckered up like he had eaten a sour lemon. “Look Kylie, I don’t care. You are here and I need to talk to you!!

I could see how impatient he was to take me to his room and talk to me, but I needed to get Shir out of the cell. “Wait,” I said. “I have to interrogate Quid.”

Quid smirked when I turned to him. It wasn’t a reaction of someone who was imprisoned. “Yes Luna?” he asked, leaning his forehead on the bar in front of him as he clutched the bars on the side.

“How do you know Alpha Logan?” I asked.

“I don’t know him, but I know you.”

I chuckled. “Everyone knows me because I am the Luna.” I crossed my arms across my chest and asked, “Which pack are you from?”

“I’m a rogue,” he replied confidently.

“And yet you smell like… melons.”

He jerked his head back, and I couldn’t help but wonder about his reaction. I ignored his reaction and said, “How do you know Zoe?” And he flinched.

“Kylie, he is a rogue. We have identified it already!” Graham interrupted. “And he was working on your orders!”

I turned to him. “Says who?” I snapped.

Graham sucked in sharp air. “He confessed.”

So you are giving more value to a rogue’s confession than your Luna’s?” I shouted.

Graham froze momentarily. “It’s not like that-”

“Then what is it, Graham?” I demanded. “I never ordered Shir to sell pack secrets to anyone. So set him free!”

I

“If I set him free, I will be forced to expel him from the pack!” Graham said, as if giving me an ultimatum.

This also meant that he accepted Shir wasn’t guilty. I knew from the beginning that this was a ploy to get me back. I noticed Fenris had paled. “Then so be it!” I growled. “But set him free because I have proven that he is not guilty. And what are you going to do with Quid?”

“I’ll take care of him,” Zoe said, her face filled with embarrassment. “He will be sent to a maximum security cell.”

“Who are you to decide?” I snapped at Zoe.

She opened her mouth and snapped it shut, glancing at Graham. “I was just-”

“Enough! This case is over.” Graham growled at her. I saw Zoe’s face grow pale as a sheet. “Send this wolf to solitary confinement!” Then he grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the dungeons. “We have to talk!”
