Chapter 10: Part 8

“I know son, but she thought you were her mate because she found her mate but rejected him because he has nothing you have” my father replied. “So, he never thought of marrying her off,” my mother asked. “No, it was all her idea,” my father said. “I also told her father that you already found your mate, and to say the least, he was shocked,” my father said. “He also said to apologize to you for the trouble his daughter caused and to say that he will punish her,” he said.

“I also talk to my brother, about what his daughter did,” he said. “And what did Neil say” my mother asked. I also wondered because Uncle Neil was one of the people in my family who welcomed Dillion with open arms and made him feel like family. He also helped Dillion to better his fighting skills. He also stood up for Dillion when the family badmouthed him when I was not there.

“He was shocked at first and then he got so angry that he called his Mandy and told me that she would be punished according to the rules of going against an Alpha or an Alpha’s mate,” my father said. To say I was shocked was an understatement because my uncle loves Nataly very much. After all, after Danny, my cousin and Mandy's brother, Mandy, he and his mate, Aunty Stacy couldn’t have children anymore.

“Well, I think he is doing the right thing,” my mother said. “If he doesn’t stop her now and she continues the way she is going then when Dillion is back it will be a lot worse for him,” she said. If she says it that way, I agree with my mother. “Yeah well after he told her that she started to go crazy, swearing at her father and Dillion, but before she could say anything else, Stacy came in and grabbed her daughter yelling at her today you will learn a lesson and learn some respect young lady and left pulling Mandy with her and I think Neil was just as shocked as I was” replied my father.

I laughed. “Well let’s just say, mothers are scarier than Alpha’s,” I said. My father and mother also laughed at that. “True son, true,” said my father. We continued to talk for a little bit more. “Well, I am going to bed now, because I have a lot of things that need to be planned for next weekend when we are going to visit Granny and Grandpa,” I said to my parents. I stood up and kissed my mother’s head and waved at my father. “Night son,” both my parents said.

“Oh, and before I forget, congrats on winning the pack games,” my mother said. “Thank mom” I replied. I walked up the stairs to go to my room in my parent's house. I have slept here most of the time in the last 2 years. I have my own house on the pack land, but it was a surprise for Dillion when he turned 18 years old, and we claimed each other. I tried to sleep there the first few nights, but I couldn’t because he was not there with me. “I also have a room in the pack house for when I stay late so that I do not have to walk in the dark to my house, but that is where Dillion and I slept together so it doesn’t feel right to sleep there without him.

I went to the bathroom and did my night routine. I put on some boxers and climbed into my bed. I started to think about my mate again. About why he left. Was he not happy here, was he not happy with me, did he want someone else as his mate, did he not love me and just play along with my feelings? And the question I really can’t seem to answer myself is, why did he not tell me anything so that I can help him and protect him?

The next two weeks flew by in a flash. I was preparing what we should bring to Granny Claire’s house, who will be in my, Andrew’s, Zain’s, Keiran’s, and Kasey’s places while we are away for a little bit. I think we are planning to stay there for about a week’s time. I may not be Alpha yet, but I still have some duties that my father passed down to me for me to complete.

In the week that we are gone, my father will take over my duties again, since he knows what to do and how to do it since it was his duty. My dad’s beta, who is Zain’s father, Uncle Ivan will take over Zain’s duties, since it was his duties before he passed it on to Zain. Uncle Brain who is my father’s Delta and Keiran’s father will handle his duties because once again it was his duty before he passed it on to Keiran. Aunty Jenna and Aunty Mia with Aunty Berna will look after the pack pups on Kasey’s days until Kasey returns, and Angel, one of the pack doctors, will handle Andrew’s shifts until he is back.

It was now Saturday, the day we were going to Granny Claire’s. It was one of my rougher nights, where I had almost no sleep, but I will make it work. I looked at the time and saw that it was 4 a.m. We were going at 11 o’clock because at 7 o’clock I had a meeting with Blood Moon Pack’s Alpha. I stood up and went to the bathroom to shower and do my bathroom routine. I changed into gym clothes and went to the pack gym. I worked out in the gym for about an hour and a half before I went to the gym showers to shower again. I then went to change into somewhat formal clothes.

I went downstairs and went to the kitchen where I was sure the rest of the gang already was. I saw that Zain and Keiran were in the kitchen with the girls. “Okay so let’s get going to the meeting,” Zain said the moment he saw me. I nodded my head and walked to the office, where I knew that he would be waiting. Zain and Keiran followed me.
