The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 180

Chapter 180

I’ve flipped through countless pages, my eyes beginning to blur from the strain. My father’s expression is intense, sharp with purpose, as if he’s hunting for something specific. Yet, despite his focus, he remains closed off, unwilling to share whatever it is occupying his mind.

“So, Alpha Ryan,” Josh breaks the silence, his voice steady but curious, “why have you been avoiding Kennedy?” The question catches me off guard—I nearly choke on my own tongue. I’ve been wrestling with the same thought, but haven’t found a respectful way to bring it up with Dad. His attitude toward Kennedy has been so inconsistent that I’m left confused.

“There’s a reason, beta,” he replies without looking up from the page in front of him. He doesn’t deny it, nor does he seem bothered by the avoidance. To him, it’s apparently just understood, and acceptable.

“What?!” I stop pretending to read the same line for the third time, frustration bubbling up. “Why would you do that? I thought you approved of her as my mate.”

“Oh, I do approve,” he says firmly. “I’ve seen her with you and the rest of the pack. She fits perfectly—not just with you, but with all of us. Before she came along, we were growing slowly. Now, we’re thriving.” Still, he avoids meeting our eyes. What on earth is going on here?

“That doesn’t add up, sir,” Josh says carefully, his tone respectful. I’m relieved it’s him speaking because I wouldn’t have been so tactful.

“Kennedy and I have history,” Dad admits quietly. “I’m not sure what she remembers, but I’m in no rush to dredge up the past.”
