Chapter 52: Hate or Compensate

Giselle's POV

"Killian, what's going on? Why are you here?" Killian's mother bombarded us with questions as soon as we arrived at the Pack.

We have just arrived at the entrance to the Packhouse, yet she's already here to confront us already.

"Mother," I flashed Victoria a sweet smile as I welcomed her with a warm hug, knowing that Killian would be highly sensitive right now.

"What happened, dear?" Victoria asked me instead when she noticed the cold and indifferent look on her son's face.

I glanced quietly at Killian and watched as he helped with the omegas, putting out the things we packed but never had the chance to use.

Killian has been deadly silent during the whole ride. He's been silent and angry ever since we left the Nightsong Pack.

The tension in the car was unbearable. I could feel the anger radiating off him the whole time that I was with him. Astrid's confession of cheating really affected him so much. "Something bad happened while we were at the Nightsong Pack, Mother," I answered Victoria with a fearful look in my eyes.

Victoria's eyes narrowed in anger when she heard my answer. "What? Did Drystan drag you out of their Pack? We have always welcomed Drystan to our Pack and treated him with kindness. Can't he show some respect to his own nephew?!" She trembled in anger as she spoke.

"I don't think we should hate Drystan, mother-"
