Rejected, And Became A Heiress

My Billionaire Please Became 72

Chapter 0072

Cara's POV

In order to manage my responsibilities, I take turns watching over Mia at the Pack DarkWood hospital, switching with Ruby or my assistant so that I can return to Bloody Moon for official business, as well as to care for my son Ethan."

Once the doctors get Mia stabilized and shifted back to human form, she will come back to BloodyMoon, too. She'll need weekly treatments in DarkWood, but I look forward to the day when she can sleep in her own bed at home once again. The doctors tell me it will be any day now.

I see a text from Eamon, asking me to meet him in his office. I arrive soon after and knock on his door before entering.

"You asked to see me?" I ask. He's sitting expectantly at his desk, like he has been waiting

for me.

"Yes, we need to prepare for your official appointment as Beta. There are a few very important items to discuss," Eamon says

"Such as?" I ask, taking a seat in front of his large wooden desk.

"First, we need to talk about your name," he says, watching me carefully.

"My name?" I'm confused. Why would we need to discuss that? What's wrong with the name Cara?

"Cara is not the name you were given at birth." Eamon says. "There has never been a Cara Auburn."

"Yes, Grandmother picked that name for me when she took me in. I was only three years old and was too scared to talk for a long time. By the time I remembered my real name, I was so used to everyone at Pack DarkWood calling me Cara that I never corrected them," I explain.

I had taken Grandmother's own last name and became known from that time forward as

Cara Wilson.

"Of course, but doesn't the name Cara remind you of your orphaned past? Doesn't it bring up painful memories that you'd rather forget now that you're back at home?" Eamon sounds genuinely curious.

I think about his questions for a moment. Yes, Cara was the name given to me as an orphan in Pack DarkWood, and many parts of my childhood were difficult and painful. Constant bullying for my low-born status, constant bittemess from the nobles. But those experiences are what made me the she-wolf I am today. The difficulty I faced as
