Gideon walked into the interrogation room and understood at once why theycalled it a VIP room.

It wasn’t a dirty cellar like the other cells he had been insidein the past 24 hours.

This room had white matte glass walls and ceilings andeven floors with a mounted desk and chairs in the middle.

He knew at once thatthis was a place she built.

Everything around himscreamed her name.

And he cringed seeing the redhead fox in that space.It was as if she was insulting everything that Riannon touched with her merepresence.But the moment she looked in his direction, he felt a wave of...

something.Gideon took a deep breath and he could swear that her lips curled a bit.“Your majesty,” she mumbled in the sweetest tone, tilting her head so that one ofher shoulders was bare to his sight as the oversized hood she was given at thehospital fell off it.“Luna Roxanne, so we meet again,” he said indifferently as he took a seat in frontof her.

(This novel will be daily updtaed at com)She wrinkled herlittle nose, lowering her eyes.“I don’t think people should call me Luna anymore since I am in this place,” shesighed and stretched her cuffed hands to touch his palm that was resting on thedesk.

He did not jerk that hand back and she quickly squeezed his fingers withhers.

“Please, tell me what is goingon! No one is telling me anything.”He wasn’t looking at her when he heard the sound of tears falling on the surfaceof the desk and he felt another wave of...

that odd something.

He couldn’t quitedecipher it but he had an urge to look at the girl who sat opposite of him.Roxy was crying, all her face already wet.

“Please,” she squeaked helplessly.

“I’llsee what I can do...” Gideon said in a hoarse voice and squeezed her hand

back.“Really, my king?” She fluttered her lashes, blinking away tears and one of themlanded on his skin.

It was calling him to do something and he bent a bit closer toher.“Of course,” he said, “You and your baby will be safe.” She smiled at him, “Youare so kind, your majesty.

How can I ever repay you?” She leaned forward too,her fingers running up his arm as their lips almost touched.“You can start by telling me where your damn fox lover would take my mate,” hegritted his teeth and then pushed her away.

The look of astonishment wasevident on her face as shestared at him.“Wh-what?” the girl mumbled.

“Why...” aware of who you are.

Or maybebecause I am a freaking LYCAN KING!”He let out a mighty growl, making the girl fall off her chair and crawl to thefurthest corner away from him.

She was visibly shaking and he knew that he hadachieved the desired effect.“Did you ever think why he never sent you to seduce a Lycan? Let alone me?”Gideon smirked.

“Why waste your time on some Alpha when you could havealready been in the Lycan kingdom, ruining it from the inside?”He circled the desk and looked down on her from where he stood with his handsfolded on his chest.

“That’s because lycans, and especially royal lycans, have thestrongest metal shields.

A cross-breed siren wouldn’t be able to affect us.”She stared at him but not a word about who she really was left her mouth.

Notthat heneeded any confirmation.

“I don’t know what you are talking about, my king,” she sniffed pitifully, and herolled hiseyes.“I don’t care about that,” he shrugged.

“Just tell me where would your king takemy mate?”Her head snapped at him and her lips twitched slightly, but she quickly went backinto her ignorant mode.“You are my king,” she said weakly and started sobbing again, “I don’t know whatyou are talking about! Please, let me out!”He was right next to her in one moment, yanking her back to her feet and liftinghis handwith prolonged claws to rip her neck.“What the f*ck?!” the door opened and Brayden growled loudly, storming in.

“Youdon’t have the right to even touch my Luna!”“Is she even your Luna? Did you acknowledge her? Did you mark her?” Gideonsnarled angrily.

“And even if you did, you can’t stop me from snapping her neck ifshe doesn’t start talking!”“But The Alpha Council can!” Bray stepped forward with clenched fists.

“I justsummoned a new Alpha Summit! They all know what happened and that youhold my Luna hostage.”“I don’t care about your Luna!” Gideon let the girl go and was head to head withthe werewolf in less than a second.

“All need is information! Get it for me and thetwo of you arefree to go!”

“You have one hour!” the lycan king grunted and left, slamming the door behindhis back.He took a deep breath.

The room was soundproof and he couldn’t hear what thecouple was talking about.

So, he didn’t waste any time and opened the very nextdoor, walking into theobservation room.His queen was indeed wise because that wasn’t just a fortified matte glass inthere.

Onewall was a hidden window and at every angle behind that glass, cameras wereinstalled so that it was easy to observe every move inside of the interrogationroom on big screens inside the observation one.

The first thing that he would dowhen all this was over, was build a room just like that in his palace.Then again, who was he kidding? The first thing he would do would be take hismate over and over, and over again.“You did well,” Ash praised his acting and he frowned.

This wasn’t what hewanted to be doing.

This wasn’t how he was used to handling things.

But since itwas Riannon who was in danger and this little annoying redhead hybrid was theonly one who could help him find her, he was willing to try and do anything.

Hewasn’t above even humiliating himself for her sake.SOThere were other ways to get information out of her, but she was pregnant.

And itseemed too cruel to interrogate her properly in that state.He looked at Riannon’s Beta standing in the corner and eyeing Roxanne behindthe glass.

She was surprisingly calm with her arms folded on her chest.

As if shedidn’t commit a grave mistake that cost her an Alpha.But now wasn’t the time to think about her and he turned to see the show.“Are you okay?” Brayden was still standing where he left him a few seconds ago.“Bray!” Roxanne started crying again as she threw herself in his arms, tuckingher head in his neck.

She was smearing her tears all over his skin and Gideonknew that it was a trick.

From the quick research on sirens’ abilities he did withRia, they found out that sirens were seducing creatures not only with their sweetvoices and good looks.

The females weresecreting pheromones that could drive almost any male crazy with lust veryquickly.

Nowonder that i***t Brayden thought she was his mate.

It was unusual to wantsomeone that much when you were already mated.

But those tears of hers wereespecially dangerous.

They were the concentration of those pheromones and herown DNA.

Every time it was touching a male, that liquid was marking them.Temporary, but it was a bond of sorts and it was easier to make them like her.The mating was sealing the deal.

But all that was wearing off, so she“I was so scared!” she whined, “First, I was kidnapped together with Harper! Iwas so scared! Then, I was attacked by Maya for outing her earlier! She wantedto kill me, Bray! And now this! The lycan king thinks that I know something!Thanks to the Moon Goddess that you are here!”“Of course,” Brayden kissed the top of her head, stroking her hair.

“Don’t worryanymore.You are safe now.

You are with me.

Just tell me everything that you know and wewill walk out of here.

I promise.”She distanced herself and looked wearily at him, “But I don’t know anything.”

“You need to give us something,” he insisted calmly while he sat on the top of thedesk and pulled her closer.

“They think you are a traitor.

They will not let you outif you don’t provide any valuable information.”“But wouldn’t it be proof of me actually being a traitor if I did?” Roxanne flappedher long“Of course not,” he brushed his hand over her cheek.

“Just tell us where theykept you.

(This novel will be daily updtaed at com)Remember, youwere telling me that something is happening to your wolf and it’s getting stronger.That you can memorise things easily and it will help you to be a better Luna.

Nowisthe time to use all that.

I am sure you can find the place where they held you andHarper.

If we find her, we will be able to leave and get married.

And our baby willbe safe.”He placed his hand on her flat tummy that wasn’t even visible yet.

“Bray, I don’tremember a thing!” Roxy lied and he sighed.“It’s for our baby, my love,” he said gently.

“Give them something priceless.

Tellus the location and we will leave today.

You will live like a queen.”“But Harper told them about your accounts,” the girl sniffed.

“Bray, did you evencheckthem?”“I did and I have already sorted this.

Do not worry.

My Luna will ask for nothing,you will have everything.

And our son will be the next Alpha.” He coaxed her, butGideon could tell that it wasn’t working.“I am sorry,” Roxanne lowered her head.

“I already told Ash everything I knew.

Idon’t remember anything else.

But I am sure that my strong Alpha will save meanyway.

Right, Brayden? You will not leave me and your baby alone?”

She looked at him pleadingly and he took her hands off her and walked a fewsteps away.

“Bray,” She mumbled, “what is going on?” “Shift,” he ordered her in a cold voice,making her lips part in shock.“Bray!” her tone was begging for mercy as she stared at him helplessly.

“Whatare you saying? Why?”“I want to see your super special wolf.

That’s all,” a smirk appeared on his faceand Gideon watched curiously.

This wasn’t a part of their plan.

But then again –their plan just failed.

She did not fall for it.

So, they would have to try somethingelse.Maybe that Alpha wasn’t that useless after all?“Shift,” the stone-cold voice made the little fox shiver.

She knew that it would beover for her if she did.“Shift.

Now.” He wasn’t reacting this time.

If the person who was being seducedwas aware, it lessened the effect.

A lot.

This was how sailors were surviving onthe sea in the olden days.

They knew exactly what kind of monsters sirens were.“I can’t shift!” Roxy sobbed, “I am still an omega! It can hurt the baby.

Your baby!”“It seemed to be fine just a while ago,” he got out his phone and quickly swipedthe screen.

(This novel will be daily updtaed at com)Then heshoved it into her face and Gideon could see a video playing.

“You shifted into afox to fight Maya.

I hate to break it to you, my love,” this time every word wascoated in“Brayden!” she burst into tears loudly and ugly, throwing herself at him again.

“Iam still your mate! I couldn’t tell you that I was a fox! You would never acceptme...

So, I lied about

The Alpha was looking at her now and a storm of emotions was raging inside ofhim.

How could he be so stupid? Why didn’t he see that before? He losteverything because of the deception of that woman and all he wanted was tosnap her neck.

Moreover, he even knew already that the baby wasn’t his.

Thedoctor ran some tests on Roxy and the baby’s blood type meant that he couldn’tbe his father.

Because that child, however small, didn’t have the Alpha marker inhis or her blood.

And by the next morning, he would have DNA test results toconfirm his suspicions once and for all.

But looking at her now, he already knewthat he wasn’t thefather.“That child and you will be dead by the end of the week if you don’t startspeaking,” he“Brayden! Brayden!” she screamed, but he stopped hearing her as soon as thedoor closed behind him.

He went to the bathroom and washed his hands, faceand everywhere else she touched with her tears.

He didn’t want any of that onhim anymore.“How the hell do you have the footage from the woods?” Gideon growled behindhis back as he walked in.

His eyes were glowing now and Bray knew that thelycan king would rip him apart if he couldinstalled in a few places to spot intruders.

I was lucky that Maya ended upfighting her right under one.

That’s all.

I have already checked everything else.There’s nothing useful.”“Can you see her in the video?” Gideon interrupted his speech.“Just a bit,” Bray admitted.“Give it to me! Now!” the lycan snarled at the Alpha.

Brayden handed him thephone and Gideon started watching the short extract of what surely was a longrecording before.

He saw a bear, a fox and Roxanne in her human form.

Then he saw another wolfattacking them, who was probably Maya.

She was outnumbered but foughtfiercely and when she was done with the first two beasts, Roxy shifted into ahuge fox right in front of her.

A few moments later he saw her, his Riannon.

Sheappeared from the depths of the forest and watched her friend fight.

One breath– and a dark figure appeared behind her.

He placed some kind of fabric over hernose and mouth and held her tight while she...

did absolutely nothing to fighthim.

Ria did not struggle at all.Maya was done with Roxanne when she could still see the man taking his mateaway.

But she did not move either, watching how the fox slowly shifted back toher human form instead and only occasionally glancing at her Alpha being taken.So many things were wrong with that video.

(This novel will be daily updtaed atcom)The whole finale took a few seconds but an Alpha and a Betawere supposed to have better reactions.“Bring me the rest of it!” Gideon ordered, sending the video to himself viamessenger and turned his back to the Brayden.

“All of it!”He went to the observation room, where Maya, Reid and Ash were still watchingRoxy cry hysterically in the corner.

:“So noisy!” Reid rolled his eyes, pointing at the fox behind the glass who couldn’tseethem.or if it was some kind of a joke.

However, when he growled loudly andmenacingly, they allstood up and headed for the exit.“Not you, Maya,” the lycan king motioned for the Beta to stay and his own secondlooked at him questioningly.

“We need to talk.”

just like Ash, not defying his king’s command.Maya did not seem worried of phased at all even when Gideon handed her hisphone withthe very same video.

She watched it, unbothered.

Just the way she watchedRiannon taken“So,” Gideon snarled, “would you explain to me what the hell that was?!”
