Chapter 59 He was the one person I couldnt predict , couldnt even try to imagine what could be going through his head .
It was much harder trying to come up with the best way to act and what words to say when I knew the smallest thing could send me tipping over the edge .
The last thing I wanted to do was end up in his bad books .
Why ? Lucians voice was hard as he spoke .
Were literally your family , Thea .
Why didnt you tell us ? You were going through this all by yourself and the first thing you thought to do was bear it all alone ? I had to , Lucian .
I said , unable to hide the frustration in my voice .
The last thing I want is to lose my freedom because of this .
Youd all try to protect me and wont even let me move where I want to .
Lucian looked like he was about to interject but she cut him off and continued talking .
I know you care about me but you have to understand that Im not a little girl anymore .
There are somethings I have to do by myself .
I said to him , my voice calmer than it had been before .
Thea .
Lucians eyes softened just a little .
Im sorry I kept it from all of you .
I admitted , my voice coming out smaller than I had intended .
Lucian nodded his head , a small breath leaving his lips as he leaned back against the wall .
His eyes watched me carefully for a while .
Its alright , Thea .
I understand why you had to do that .
He pushed himself off the wall , closing the distance between us .
Id never been this close to Lucian before and yet , there was a glimmer of an emotion I couldnt quite put my finger on .
You dont have to shoulder everything on your own now .
Thats why you have us .
Your brothers .
Your family .
I nodded my head , taking in a deep breath to try and still my nerves .
Id taken a big step by deciding to open up to him .
Hopefully it wouldnt end up blowing up in my face .
Over the next few days , I and Haelor stayed with Lucian at his cottage in the Border Forest .
It wasnt easy been under constant surveillance and over time , I was becoming restless .
09:35 Lunas Deadly Deception : How She Made Her Alpha 45.7 % Chapter 59 Jane was also staying with me so I was the slightest bit grateful for the company .
Right now , we were trying to concoct a way to sneak out .
Magnus had been imprisoned for quite some time and I still had a couple of questions I wanted to ask him .
There was no amount of mantras I told myself that would make it any better .
Coast is clear , Jane whispered to me .
Come on .
I nodded , slowly following in her footsteps as we tried to head out of the exit .
I could almost taste the sweet sensation of victory.
Where are you going ? I froze , already dreading the sound of a voice Id become all to accustomed to .
We turned to see Lucians beta watching us with an unimpressed stare .
I just want to interrogate Magnus .
Theres nothing wrong there .

I tried to reason with him .
You dont have to worry about that , Princess Thea .
Ill take care of that .
The beta replied coolly .
I wanted to retort again but before I could speak , Lucian entered the room .
His eyes lingered on me , a small smile tugging at his lips .
He must have heard everything .
Its okay .
Since youre so keen on moving about , Ive got a temporary guardian for you .
As soon as I peered behind him , my mood soured .
Quentin slowly walked into the room , his eyes an unreadable mask .
When his eyes landed on me , I noted a mix of emotion brewing behind them .
Lucian , oblivious to what was going on , turned to Jane .
Come on now , Jane .
Theres something I need to ask you .
Jane sent me one final glance before following my brother and his beta as they left the room .
It was just me and Quentin now .
Alone .
Quentin- He cut me off sharply .
Back then at the party , you couldnt turn into a wolf couldnt you ? Even in the face of their bullying .
09:36 Lunas Deadly Deception : How She Made fler Alpha Ki 45.9 % Chapter 59 I stared at him for a moment , wondering if I should just lie about it .
A part of me was already tired of having to deflect everything and spin lie after lie .
Youre right .
I confessed .
Quentins face contorted to that of anger .
What the hell were you thinking putting yourself in that situation ? Did you even stop to be considerate of what could have happened if I didnt come there ? And now this .
He scoffed .
Im not surprised .
You looked at that asshole Magnus .
Theres not much to expect anyway .
I felt the anger boiling beneath my skin at his words .
Hed hit a pretty sore spot .
A memory of when we were still at the student stage flashed in my head .
