The Luna’s Choice

Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Briggs “About da*n time you answered, as***le,” I said when Theo finally picked up the phone. “Mina has been driving me crazy wanting to know how things went last night.” Okay, we both were dying to know if things went well. When Theo called me to get my help setting up the perfect date with Ayla, I dropped everything without question. When I got there with the flowers and other supplies, he insisted I stay hidden so Ayla didn’t find out. I had never seen him so uptight about décor. It was quite amusing. “She didn’t call Ayla?” Theo asked. “Of course she did,” I said. “But she wasn’t sure if she was supposed to know, so she only tried a couple times. Quit changing the subject. How the hell did it go?” “We’re not ready to let anyone know just yet,” Theo replied, but I could hear the happiness and excitement in his voice. “We?” I asked, sitting up in my office chair. “So, it went well?” There was a pause on the other end. “Yeah,” Theo replied. “It went f****ng amazing.” I was smiling from ear to ear. I knew Theo was too. “I’m cleaning up right now before Mom and Dad get back,” he explained. “I’ll tell you more after Ayla and I have had some time to talk.” “You two are killing us over here, you know that, right?” Chapter 95 Briggs “You’ll live,” Theo insisted before hanging up the phone. I immediately mind-linked Mina. ‘Hey, babe, I just spoke with Theo. It sounds like it was a great night.’ I could feel her nearby but she didn’t answer. She had been working on some paperwork for the pack. It wasn’t exactly the most riveting job, so she shouldn’t have been that focused. My gut tightened.

Something was off ‘Babe?’ I reached out again. She wasn’t blocking me.

‘I’m in Theo’s office,’ she finally responded. I could feel fear in her words. ‘I’m on my way.’ I shot up from my desk. ‘Act normal,’ she hissed through our connection. ‘Don’t rush. I lied and said I couldn’t mind-link.” What the hell? Mina and I still hadn’t marked each other, so our senses were still limited. ‘Who is there, Mina?’ I demanded. ‘I don’t know,’ she replied. ‘He’s demanding files… I don’t…’ ‘I’m here, baby,’ I said, pausing outside Theo’s office door. It was cracked open and I could hear a man’s voice inside. I didn’t recognize it, but he demanded Mina find something for him. I was filled with rage. Ready to barge in and rip this as***l*’s throat out. But he wasn’t expecting me to come in, so I couldn’t appear like I was expecting to find him. I took a few breaths to get my head straight. Chapter 95 Briggs 288 (Vouchers I pushed through the door. “Hey, Mina…” Randall Fallweather was standing behind Mina. When I came in, he grabbed her, holding a blade to my mate’s throat. I growled as my hands clenched into fists. It took everything in me not to launch myself across the room. “What the hell is going on?” I demanded. “Stay back,” Randall demanded. “I will kill her. I just want the files. And don’t even try to mind-link anyone, or I start cutting.” “Okay, okay,” I said, trying to calm him down. I looked at Mina. She gave me a slight nod, letting me know she was okay. “What files?” “You don’t need to know,” Randall spat. “I just need to know where he keeps them.”

“It’s an office, man,” I said, taking a slow step forward. “Check any drawer.” “Not those,” Randall said, waving the blade around. “The hidden ones. The files that aren’t supposed to exist. All these Alphas keep them.” “I’m not the Alpha,” I said, taking another step. “No, but you’re his Beta. So you know where they are.” He grabbed Mina tighter. “And you’re going to tell me. I’ll get what I came for, and you can have your little girlie here back, safe and sound.” “And what? You walk out the front door?” Randall chuckled. “That’s exactly what’s going to happen. Because if I don’t, your mate here won’t be the only one who suffers.” “Alright,” I said, “just take it easy. The cabinet safe is the only place I Chapter 95 Briggs know he could have anything like that. Behind the desk.” He looked back, dragging Mina with him toward the safe. ‘I told Jimmy to call Theo,’ Mina said while he was distracted. He wasn’t looking at her eyes, so she could reach out safer than I could. I smiled at her. My brilliant mate. If he harmed her, I’d kill him on the spot. Randall yanked the door open, revealing the safe door inside. “What’s the code?” I winced. “I don’t know.” “Well, you better start figuring it out,” he said, putting pressure behind the blade against Mina’s skin. “You really think hurting her will get you what you want, Randall?” I let his name slip on purpose. His face paled. “Threatening a Beta’s mate is a death sentence on its own, and you already have a murder charge hanging over you.” “No,” he shouted. “That wasn’t me.” “We found the files in your rental house, Randall,” I said. “You’re the only one who could have been

down there with Mrs. Walport. What makes you think what you’re looking for is here?” “I wasn’t,” he insisted. “I was only in charge of the fires. Now, I know the old Alpha covered something up. So you better start remembering the code.” “I can’t remember what was never given to me,” I said. Mina gasped as Chapter 95: Briggs 288 iVouchers he tightened his hold. “But if you give me a minute to think, I might be able to figure it out. But I would think a lot clearer if there wasn’t a knife pressed against my mate’s throat.” Randall thought momentarily, shifting from one foot to the other before I could see him loosen his grip on Mina. “Good,” I said. “Now, I believe you didn’t kill anyone, Randall. So, I’m going to help you get the code and find what you’re looking for. But you’re going to have a hard time getting out of here without drawing attention.” “Oh really,” Randall sneered. “You’re pretty nervous right now. They will probably smell you throughout the packhouse halls,” I said. “Your unfamiliar scent is going to draw attention to you.” “You don’t worry about that,” Randall said. “I have my insurance. I’m pretty good a distractions.” My eyes locked with Mina’s. He was going to set a fire in the packhouse.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
