I could not believe what had just happened! I never saw the punch coming. Luke had struck a nerve with his father. One thing I knew was that Alpha Aesop loved Luke dearly, which was why the man reacted the way he did. After Alpha Aesop voiced his mind and walked away, we were still shocked. I was stunned, and I could not move. I believed Luke went too far with his father, and he had hurt the man Aesop sounded like a man that has been hurting for many years. He cried in public for the first time, and the memory of his late wife caused it. 

“You need to go after him and apologise,” I linked Luke. I was afraid that this might take a toll on his health. Aesop did not react well to things. 

“No,” Luke said, and I could not believe my husband. 

“Unless you are ready to become an orphan, Luke. You need to go and apologise for insinuating he killed his wife. He is clearly still hurting over her. For goddess’ sake, Luke, you of all people know how his face lights up when he is talking about her. What you said was a low blow. You both need closure and won’t get it from attacking each other at the breakfast table. You need to go to him before it is too late, Luke. I think he is really done,” I warned my husband, and Luke reluctantly got up and went after his father. 

Stacy began to weep at the table. No one comforted her. 

“Caleb, how can you let them do this to us?” she said to her son, and Caleb was too shocked to even respond. 

“Caleb,” she cried again, and I saw him snap. 

“What the hell do you want me to do, mother? You dug your grave, mother. Just look at you? You have lied to father for years. You were mean to your stepson, and you stole from them. No one ever believes you because you lie. You connived with our enemies to steal from Luke. You slandered his image and tried to make him miserable by making our father buy a wife for him. As if that wasn’t enough, you still tried to ruin the marriage. Then you brought your niece here to create problems for them,” He said, and she looked at him, shocked

He calls her name in his sleep and sometimes calls her name when we are together. When Aesop and I got together, I sympathised with him over Chloe and offered to take care of Luke because he had a revenge plan. I cared for that boy for three years, hoping Aesop would see and fall for me. Aesop saw no one except Chloe. She was his world. I thought he would get over her with time, but he never did.
