Chapter 0382
KYLE'S POV.
On the day of coronation as Delta of this pack, I swore an oath to protect my Alpha till my very last breath and I do not intend to break that oath or fail in my duty anytime. Anyone who's out to deceive or destroy my Alpha in any way will face my wrath and I proved that with my own sister, Alina, kept causing trouble for him and his mate.
Now, it's Selena.
Everything about her return sounds very fishy to me and I will not rest until I clear the air about this issue.
Sighing heavily, I stretch my hand towards the doorknob and open the door before me. The private lounge comes into view. There's a young girl seated on a couch in the sitting area and the moment she sees me, she rises to her feet and greets, with her head bowed down.
"Good day to you too." I respond, stepping into the lounge and closing the door behind me. "You're Catherine Ford."
"Yes, Delta. I am."
"You may sit." I gesture to the couch.
"Thank you." She lowers herself on the couch.
I take long strides over to the sitting area and sit on the couch across hers, my eyes glued on her. She looks so stiff and uncomfortable. Like she'd break into pieces if I raise my voice any higher than it already is.
"You must be wondering why I invited you here."
“I.....” She starts to talk but her voice catches. She stops and clears her throat before looking at me again. "Your invitation came as a shock to me, Delta. Till now, I have not been able to figure out what I could have possibly done to warrant this meeting with you."
"I called you here so we could discuss something very important."
Something flashes in her eyes.
Fear.
Her fingers intertwine with each other and I watch her throat bubble up and down as she swallows hard.
"Something important?” Her voice is a croaked whisper. I calmly nod my head and adjust myself on the couch, taking a more comfortable posture. "Yes. Your friendship with Selena." Her brows furrow as she stares at me, completely dumbfounded.
"My friendship with Selena?"
"Yes. Alpha Reagan's ex-mate. The one who died five years ago. I asked around and was told you too were best friends. Is that true?" "Y... ye..." She stutters nervously. "Yes. That's true."
"Meaning you know a lot about her past life, from childhood."
"I do." She nods.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
"Can you tell me about it?"
"Delta. If I may be bold, can I ask why you're..."
Ke
"No, you may not." I calmly cut her off, my eyes staring straight into hers. She quickly nods in agreement. "Just tell me what I've asked." My eyes flick to her hands which are placed on her lap and I notice that she's digging her nails into her palm out of nervousness. It seems I'm going to give the poor girPa heart attack.
"I don't know where to start." Her voice is low and shaky. "Maybe if you ask questions, I'll have an idea what you want to know."
There are a few things I found out during my research. Like the fact that Selena was an Orphaned child who grew up with her Paternal Aunt, but was
kicked out of the house at the age of fifteen because she grew too recalcitrant and the elders were no longer able to deal with her.
"Catherine. I need you to tell me the truth about why Selena's aunt sent her packing from her house at such a young age." I support my elbows on my thighs and lean forward, A gesture to make her understand the importance of this conversation we are about to her. "And I need you to tell me the truth."
"Selena was kicked out because she was dating. Her aunt didn't like the fact that she had a boyfriend at fifteen. She asked Selena time and again to break up with her boyfriend and focus on her studies, but Selena refused to listen. That's why she was sent packing by her aunt." She calmly explains, her eyes roaming all over my face.
