Chapter 0099

Ethan's POV

The special guest is Alpha King Alaric Grant?!

It's him!

My biological father! At least, I think he's my father...

I don't know for sure yet if that's true, but I hope to find out.

I told Auntie Ruby that I know who my father is, but she didn't definitively confirm that it's Alaric like I'd hoped she would. But she did confirm that my father may be found in Pack DarkWood. It has to be Alaric Grant.

Based on everything I've read, based on all the conversations I've overheard between Mommy and my uncles and Auntie Ruby... It's got to be him.

This is it.

This is the moment that I'm finally going to meet my father.

I see a man walk closer to the stage. I can't get a good look at him yet, he's too far away....

But I remember all of those horrible things he's done to Mommy. All those bad things he

said about her.

If it wasn't for him, Mommy wouldn't have been in that car accident.

If it wasn't for him, me and Mia wouldn't have been hurt, and we wouldn't be so much smaller than the other kids our age.

If it wasn't for him, Mia wouldn't have that terrible illness that makes her so sick that she has to go to the hospital.

If it wasn't for him, Mommy wouldn't need to work so hard to hide us.

But if it

if it wasn't for him... I wouldn't exist...

I don't know what to think. I don't know how to feel.

But I just need to know. I need to see him, finally.

My hands start to shake, and I can feel the fresh sticky sweat in between my fingers. I think

I'm nervous.
