Third person's POV
Aiden's heart skipped a beat as Chloe approached his cell.
As usual, her presence was as commanding as always despite her expressionless face. He straightened his posture instinctively, watching as she exchanged a brief look with Ethan.
"Our mate... she looks hurt..." Aiden's wolf stated in observation as Aiden fixed his gaze on Chloe. At his wolf's observation, Aiden had no response, he just kept staring at him.
"Alpha!" Ethan respectfully acknowledged the Alpha's presence.
"We will begin the interrogation now." Chloe announced, her voice literally carrying the weight of her position.
"Alpha..." Aiden spoke up, his voice quiet but steady.
"Could we... could we speak alone?" He requested politely.
Chloe's expression didn't change, but her eyes narrowed slightly.
"You are in no position to make requests." She replied him.
"Please, what I need to say... it should be between us." Aiden insisted gently.
