As I stood at the back of the crowd, a heavy silence hung in the air and it was only broken by some occasional murmuring and sniffles from some of the pack members Five years ago, I leh this pack and its members for good.

Some pack members looked back, saw me, and had this crazy pitiful look on their faces.

I frowned deeply.

Why feel pity for me? I’m not the one who died. The Alpha, the Ga*ma and unfortunately, my father were the ones who died. According to my mother, they were on their way to a meeting when their car detonated in an explosion caused by a bomb and all three of them died.

My mother didn’t call me immediately after it happened, she called me two days later and told me the funeral was today. Even though we hadn’t said a word to each other for a year, she believed I should be around for my father’s funeral. I took a long trip home just to stand at the back of the crowd in my five foot-seven height to listen to sad howls and horrific farewells. –

I couldn’t see those who stood at the front but I could see the new Beta, a formidable wolf with a scarred face, standing against a wall, his head bowed and his shoulder tensed.

As the ceremony ended, pack members walked forward to the makeshift altar, left flowers, and went home. Soon, it was my turn. I had no flowers, words, or offering for my father or the rest. I just stood in front of the altar, stared at the pictures of my late father, and said nothing for minutes. The same nothing we said to each other for five years.

“You were late, My mother complained behind me,

“I didn’t want to come.” I whispered back. It was too painful to be back here. My relationship with my father got bad after 1 got together with Darius but became worse when I left the pack without saying goodbye to him. Now, he’s gone and I forever lost the chance to amend our relationship.

“You didn’t want to attend your father’s funeral!” her voice raised She was angry and maybe sad too. She wouldn’t understand even if I told her how I felt.

I don’t know how she got the strength to still stand on both feet after losing her mate but she may be putting on a facade.

I shrugged my shoulders, acting as though I didn’t care. They stopped caring about me the moment I chose Darius over them and even became more disappointed when he left me for another woman.

“You should’ve at least respected him enough to come early and give him some flowers,” she gritted between her teeth.

“At least, I’m here,” I whispered into the wind. “Tin here, Father, The last words were more silent and meant for just one person
