Chapter 0218


    Just as we were getting settled into ate lunch, there was a knock at the door.


    “Is everyone decent, before | enter?” Alpha Reggie’s deep baritone voice called out from the crack


    in the door.


    “| already told you we were done and cleaned up dear.


    Come on in. Silly man.” She muttered thest part under her breath.


    “Hey now, no making fun of the old man. | don''t have daughters and | don''t know the protocol for


    entering the room after a clothing session.” His cheeks were a little pink as he said this walking up


    next to his mate. He was just as cute as Alpha Lucas in dad mode. He kissed her on the top of the


    head and then looked at me. “| was wondering if | could steal you away for a bit before you go?"


    | nodded, what else was | going to do? If the King wants to see you it’s not exactly a request. |


    wiped my face and thanked Luna Anne. | turned to Sierra and told her | still had to ask about study


    times at the bunkhouse, but | would let her know Tuesday at school, then followed Alpha Reggie


    out.


    Once the door was closed we took a right and headed down a long hallway, walking in silence for a


    very long time. We made it to arge set of ss doors that looked over a patio. A couple of


    Omegas | hadn''t even noticed opened the doors for us and we continued outside. This ‘patio’ wasn''t


    just a patio. It was a hugending that spanned the whole length of this side of the castle. To my


    left, it extended to the rocky surface of the mountain the castle was built into and to my right it


    curved around in arge arc, almost disappearing to the front of the castle. Still we kept walking.


    Alpha Reggie led me to a set of stairs that was so well designed, you wouldn''t notice them unless


    you walked over here to look over the railing. We descended to thewn that was lush and green


    and so well maintained. And still we kept walking. | was getting nervous, he hadn''t said anything to


    me since we left Luna Anne and we have been together for almost ten minutes. | think | could see


    our destination now though, in front of us is a hedge, simr to what Luna Ava has in her backyard


    at home. Having a maze in your yard must be an Alpha thing.

    My suspicions were confirmed when we headed straight towards it and took a quick right into the


    large, squared off bushes. Alpha Reggie was tall enough to see over the top of the hedgerow, but


    my height made that impossible unless | jumped, which was not happening in front of the Alpha


    King.


    “Sorry, for all of the secrecy, but | never really know who is listening. These hedges are grown in a


    way that the wolfsbane nt is grafted into it so it muffles the sounds of our voices, even for me


    with the best hearing as the Alpha King. We cannot be overheard here."


    “Ah! | thought | was in trouble. That is so cool though, who


    thought of grafting the nts together?"


    “I''m pretty sure you can guess the crazy genius behind this."


    He smiles over at me.


    “Doc Ganon and Doc Sylvia are scary sometimes.” |ugh back to him.


    “| believe on one of their expeditions they found something simr and brought it back here. It''s


    almost better than the soundproofing we have in the conference rooms and it’s hard to ce


    listening devices here, because the maze is so big and people tend to naturally wander while they


    talk."


    “I''m not gonna lie, I''m still a bit nervous, now that | know you brought me to basically a soundproof,


    remote location on your grounds. Am | in trouble?”


    He chuckles a bit under his breath, “No, child you are notin trouble, but | didn''t want anyone


    listening in on our conversation. | have a few questions for you and then | think | have some


    answers too.”
