Chapter 138

"It just doesn't make any sense," Leila says in a clearly angered tone, stuffing clothes into a box. "Why now? I mean why after fifteen good years. What's the point? We are his family, we should be the ones seeking justice. If they cared about him so much, why didn't they look into it after his death, they're just going to put my innocent mother through unnecessary trauma. I hate them all." Kelvin sighs, zipping the box full of Amara's clothes. "Look on the bright. side, we could get evidence to find those rogues who did it."

"I know who did it," Leila replies sharply, her cold gaze flushed with anger. "It was Carmela's father, I'm certain of it."

"But without proof, those are just mere accusations. I know you are angry and you want revenge on those who hurt you and your family, believe me, I do too but we have to pick our fights wisely."

Leila groans, dropping on the bed defeatedly, hanging her head before she raises it to look at Kelvin with a sullen took in her eyes.

"She should have just come over here when I asked her to and after this, she's moving back here with us, I don't care if I have to excavate dad's remains and bury him here for that to happen."

A year after Amara was born, Liana secretly paid them a visit and Leila had asked her to stay behind and continue living with them, she missed her mother so much but Liana refused, she would not leave the remains of her fated mate alone in the blood oak pack, it was the only way she still felt close to him.

Sometimes Leila wonders how even in death, her mother's bond to her father remains as strong as ever while Tatum wanted her and their child dead and now she has to go back to face him.

She doesn't even know what it would feel like seeing him again after all these years.
