Lila’s POV

It’s been an hour and Rachel hasn’t left her room. I felt awful for upsetting her. She was right; I had no

right to question her like that. I’m not sure what came over me and I felt so ashamed. Becca was already

in bed sleeping and I could see the faint light under Rachel’s door, indicating that she was awake. I

knocked on her door lightly and I heard her faint voice saying, “Come in.” I took a deep breath before

opening the door and poking my head in. She was curled up on her bed and her eyes were red like

she’s been crying. It made my heart squeeze painfully in my chest; I had hurt her. “Hey…” I said softly.

When she didn’t say anything, I stepped into her room. “Rachel, I’m so sorry,” I breathed, shutting the

door behind me. “I was a total monster, and you didn’t deserve that. You were right; it wasn’t my

business. He’s your father and I don’t have a right to tell you what to do.” “He wants to have a better

relationship with me…” she murmured, lowering her gaze. “I want to give him a chance to redeem

himself.” “I understand that completely. I’m sorry I gave you the third degree…” “I know you don’t trust

Alpha Jonathan, but he’s not that bad, Lila. He saved my father’s business. Without him, my father

would have gone bankrupt. We owe him a lot for that,” she said, meeting my eyes. Suddenly, I was

getting a weird feeling. Alpha Jonathan always had an alternative motive when it came to things like

that. He’s a wealthy businessman and owns basically everything; what would he want with a small

restaurant that was on the verge of bankruptcy? I wanted to ask her, but I decided it was probably

better if I didn’t. So, I kept my mouth shut. “Can you please just give them a chance? For me?” I sighed,

not wanting to argue with her anymore. “Sure,” I said, forcing a small smile. “I will give them a chance,

for you.” She smiled widely at me and leaped to her feet, running toward me and wrapping her arms

around me. “Thank you, Lila,” she breathed. I hugged her back, but I couldn’t shake that nasty feeling

that was bubbling in the pit of my stomach.
