Meadow’s p.o.v. I look Beta Lennox in the eye when Mia asks her question; I want to hear if he will finally acknowledge that he has a Daughter. Beta Lennox’s eyes widen when someone else answers Mia and it surprises me that anyone knows Rhys had two Pups and not one, as he had wanted everyone to believe. “Excuse me. You, as the former Luna, didn’t know that your former Beta had two Pups or that his Mate was no longer in the territory?” Luna Leona asks. “Our Beta female rejected her Mate for another; we never mentioned her again because we didn’t want to see Rhys in pain again.” Mia says and before anyone sees it coming, I have her pinned against the wall. “Rhys rejected his Mate, Rhys shortened her life by rejecting her, Rhys neglected his Daughter, Rhys lied to his Son. My Mother did nothing wrong; she knew she was dying and hoped that Rhys would finally man up, that he would take care of his Daughter. And I will tell you why he rejected my Mother: he wanted a Lycan Son and hated the fact that River is a Wolf. To top it off, his other Pup was a girl and he never took the time to find out what she would eventually shift into.” I say. “Why don’t you let her go? She is not worth the trouble and neither is Rhys. You are much better than them.” I hear a familiar voice behind me. “They might not be worth it, but I have had to live without a family, I had to live with someone that hated looking after me. I hated my Brother until I found out that Rhys lied to him. It will take a while before I have a normal relationship with him, but at least I have my Brother back. River was a Pup, but you were a grown female back then. You knew that Rhys had two Pups, you knew that your Mate ordered an Omega to raise me and you knew that she left me behind when she left with her second chance Mate. Don’t act as if you just uncovered a huge secret; you were very well aware of everything that happened within this territory. You are as much to blame for what happened to me as your Mate and don’t get me started on that sperm donor behind me.” I growl. If I wasn’t so damned pissed with the Bitch in front of me, I might have joined the others in their laughter. I still can’t understand why my father would choose to ignore my existence. I might not have been the Lycan Pup he had hoped for, but I was still his blood. What will happen if my Mate turns out to be a strong and ruthless High-ranking Wolf or Lycan? Would my Father try to worm his way back into my life after being absent for almost eighteen years? I never bothered with these questions before; I had no reason to and now I wish I had given them at least a few minutes thought. I know that I always wanted my Father to recognize me as his Daughter, but at the moment, I believe I am better off without him. After finding out what happened to my Mother, I asked myself the question if my father had known. Did he know that his fated Mate was going to die and could that have been the reason why he rejected her? I still don’t know much about my Mother’s ancestors. Uncle Major told me that he was still searching for the journal that my Mother had and that once he found it, he would explain everything about their ancestors. The only thing that I do know is that I do not look like my Mom. According to Uncle Major, Mom wasn't much of a fighter; she preferred reading, cooking, and other similar activities. If she could get away with it, she wouldn't train, which is a bit questionable, considering what I know about Gammas. Gammas are known for their protective instincts, not just towards their Luna but also towards other Pack-members, especially those that can’t protect themselves. Coming from a long bloodline of Gammas that goes back centuries, running towards a fight should be second nature to my Mother and not to run away from them. I was missing something about our bloodline because this isn't making sense to me. “What if Uncle Major needs that journal to explain to you that we are from a special bloodline? What if that journal will reveal to us that we are the ones those Rogues are after?” Rebel asks. It would make sense for the journal to contain some information, especially if the bloodline is an old and very long special bloodline. Could I have been looking for myself all this time? But why didn’t Uncle Major tell me about our bloodline? Why didn't the elders include me in the files they gave us? Instead of getting answers, I'm getting more questions and without hesitation, I drop Mia to the floor before grabbing Makay by the arm and pulling him out of the living room. “Alpha office, I need answers and I want them now.” I growl as I pass Uncle Major. Walking into the Alpha office, I start looking for a coffee machine. I am in desperate need of some coffee and I might kill someone if they try to stop me. “Right here, Sweetheart. What kind of coffee do you want?” I hear Lilith ask and all the anger I felt seems to evaporate. I am still holding onto Makay’s arm when I turn towards her and I hear Blade softly growling. “Watch it, Teddybear. Or you might be next on my shitlist.” Rebel growls back and Makay actually smiles at me. Makay guides me to a couch and sits down next to me, which causes me to look at him a little funny. I follow his line of sight and I see that I have his wrist in an iron grip; he has no other choice but to sit down next to me. “I have two issues running through my mind; one is work related and the other isn’t. I know I can’t get answers from you on my other issue and I have no intention of speaking to my sperm donor, so we are going to discuss the other problem. Are they after me, Uncle Major?” I ask and as I look at him, he doesn’t have to say it; I can see the answer in his eyes.
