And yet… The way she’d looked at me last night…
If she was pretending, then she was a hell of a good actress.
And I was the fool who would buy right into it until the very end.
“The investigation,” I blurted out. “Where do we stand?”
“Still waiting on concrete evidence. Promise me you won’t let what happened last night happen again until we know the truth.”
Promise him I won’t touch my own mate. The very idea made me feel sick.
But Gabriel was right about one thing—I couldn’t afford to be reckless. Not anymore.
“Fine,” I said. “I’ll be logical. But you should also watch yourself around her. If it comes out that she’s innocent and you’ve been disrespecting your rightful Luna all this time—”
“We’ll cross that bridge if we come to it,” Gabriel cut me off.
