Ran Away Pregnant Came Back Alpha Heiress Novel

Chapter 395 +25 Bonus Chapter 395 I wasn't sure, but I felt like I had too many pieces missing in this puzzle for it to make any kind of sense, or to even be satisfactory in its emptiness. I didn't even know who Ian was, or who his prominent family were. Had I inadvertently invited him tonight? At the very least, I wanted to be in the know so as to avoid this situation in the future. If Ian and his family were the kind of people I needed to watch my back around, I needed to know that too.

Though I wanted to talk to Damien about this, and while I didn't think he was purposefully withholding information from me, I believed that he might be reluctant to talk to me about this, given his overprotective nature. And while I enjoyed the result of such protectiveness back in that room, it wouldn't get us anywhere to keep getting lost in each other's arms. I knew I would have to ask someone else if I hoped to find a different answer. That being said, Damien was at my side like glue the rest of the evening, as if he had considered what had happened as his own personal failing.

I didn't mind being connected to him by the hip most of the time, as I loved him very dearly, but at least for a few minutes, to have some questions answered, I needed to be away from him. Damien and I had struck up a conversation with one of the older councilmember's wives. She was a woman with kind eyes. She had a motherly kind of smile as she leaned on her walking stick. Her husband had just left to get her a drink. That gave me an idea. "I am a little thirsty myself," I said, knowing Damien, the gentleman, would move at once to see to my every need. "Champagne?" he asked me.

"That would be lovely," I replied. He kissed my temple and gave me a gentle squeeze around the waist. "Don't leave this spot." "Don't you worry, Alpha," the old woman said. "I'll keep an eye on her." With that reassurance, Damien walked away. Alone with the woman, I waited until Damien was far out of earshot before I said, "I suppose you saw what happened earlier, when that man grabbed my wrist." "I did," the woman said. "Are you alright, Luna?" "I'm well," I said. "Though I wish I had some idea why he was so angry. I don't believe that I did anything wrong.

I don't even remember who he is." "Ah," the woman said, with some measure of pity crossing her face. "Because of your amnesia, yes. That young man was Ian, the member of a prominent family in Jake's pack. You will have to speak to Alpha Jake to learn more than that though. Members of the packs generally keep to themselves." "He was so angry with me," I said. 1/2 Chapter 395 +25 Bonus "He seemed so, yes." She had given me some information, which was helpful, but I was hoping to have a little more. "He called me Annette.

Does that name ring a bell for you?" Her eyes went a little wide, but then she quickly shook her head. "Let's talk about more pleasant matters, dear. You have arranged a beautiful event here. We shouldn't let one man spoil everything." I blinked, startled by her sudden about-face in conversation. It was as if the sheer mention of Annette had flicked the switch of conversation from on to off. That only made me more curious, but I wouldn't press. Not here. Not now. But questions were rising in my mind, and I was keeping track of them. I wasn't going to be able to forget. 2/2 Joseph King
