Abandoned Luna Now Untouchable (Cecilia) novel Chapter 114

Cecilia

My hand instinctively clutched my phone against my chest when I saw who was in the elevator with me.

“Good morning, Alpha Sebastian,” 1 greeted. “Good morning, Beta Sawyer.”

I kept my voice light and my smile natural, but the slight stiffness at the corners of my lips betrayed my inner tension.

My eyes barely skimmed across Alpha Sebastian’s chest before memories from last night flashed through my mind-him pulling me into his arms, gripping my wrist, whispering in my ear…

“Good morning,” Alpha Sebastian replied coolly.

His demeanor was serene, his handsome face as pristine and untouchable as perfectly sculpted ice.

)moved to stand behind him, taking a deep breath to dispel the images swirling in my head.

“New phone?” Beta Sawyer whispered beside me.

“Hmm?” I glanced at the device in my hand. “Oh, I accidentally shattered my screen yesterday. Just using my old one until I get it fixed.”

I was wondering about the switch.”

We chatted quietly until the elevator reached the lobby. As soon as the doors opened, L started walking toward the exit rather than following them to the parking garage.

Beta Sawyer looked confused. “Aren’t you coming to get your car?”

“It’s still at the company,” I explained.

“Then ride with us,” he offered.

“haven’t had breakfast yet,” I said, backing away. “You go ahead. See you there!” Before either could respond, I hurried off on my heels, practically jogging toward the street.

I arrived at the Silver Peak Pack offices just in time, my mind elsewnere.

The truth was, I hadn’t changed phones at all. The second device and number were specifically for Luna Dora to contact me.

As expected, after receiving the dossier about Mason’s disappearance, she reached out immediately.

When I mentioned wanting justice for my classmate, she readily agreed to help. Per task: discover where the boy’s body was hidden.

Not an easy feat, but Luna Dora-now desperate to escape Cici’s blackmail-would find a way. She promised to report back with any information.

I never told her my name. My plan was to use others to eliminate Cici while keeping myself safely removed from the situation.

After settling into my office, I grabbed my tablet and headed to Beta Sawyer’s desk for our morning check-in-and to gather some intelligence.

“Alpha Sebastian mentioned going to Boulder this Saturday,” Beta Sawyer said. “Did he tell you anything about it?”

“No,” I shook my head. “Boulder? Did he say why?”

“He didn’t.”

“So it’s a last-minute decision,” I mused.

My mind immediately flashed to that mysterious figure Alpha Sebastian had met two nights ago. Could this trip be related? It seemed likely.

“He didn’t specify whether he’s taking you or me,” Beta Sawyer added. “I guess he’ll let us know later.”

Whatever he decides,” I shrugged. “Not our place to question.”

No matter how much input we gave, the final decision would always be his.

Beta Sawyer nodded in firm agreement.

The morning dragged through two consecutive meetings, leaving the executives looking exhausted, particularly Vice President Wiley, who I caught secretly taking heart medication.

Alpha Sebastian had a business lunch scheduled, dragging the already-weakened VP Wiley along for the ordeal.

By the time they returned around 1PM, my head was throbbing. Yet Alpha Sebastian still looked energetic and alert.

Did afternoon naps really improve one’s constitution that dramatically?

I found myself wishing I could set up a small bed in my office.

Unfortunately, that wasn’t my fate.

After sitting down for just five minutes, I remembered some tasks I needed to delegate to the secretarial department downstairs.
