“What do you have to say now?” I fixated my gaze on her, taking note of the sudden panicked expression covering her face.

“You’re lying,” she said dumbly, the blood draining from her face. “You’re lying. My mother is not dead.”

Her body was slumped, however, as though she instinctively knew that I was telling the truth even if she refused to acknowledge it like the spoilt brat she was.

She looked at our fathers for clarification, but they simply bowed their heads and refused to look at her. They, too, blamed Celeste on some level for not being there, if not in the battle, then at least for not being there for the funeral. It had hurt them more than they cared to admit. Spoiling Celeste had now backfired on them. She had grown up to be a selfish, vain individual who didn’t care about anyone but herself, and now they were beginning to see that for themselves.

“No,” she gasped, clutching at a chair and swaying on her feet. “That can’t be it. It’s impossible. Regan would never have lost a battle. There’s no way,” she protested her voice now thick.

Was she now beginning to regret her actions and beginning to see the light? One could only hope, but I had my doubts.

“Impossible?” I narrowed my eyes as I fixated my gaze on her. “You left the scene of a battle, and now you’re surprised to find that your mother is dead. Regan might have been a white wolf, but she wasn’t infallible. None of us are guaranteed to live when we fight on behalf of others. You should know that,” I accused, my breathing growing shallower.

How could she be this obtuse and this stupid? Was it all an act or some form of manipulation to get us to feel sorry for her? It wasn’t working, not even on our fathers, I was pleased to find.

“But she was one of the best fighters I knew,” Celeste protested loudly. “She’s never lost a fight before. She trained every day.”

“Perhaps she was preoccupied with certain matters that prevented her from being able to entirely focus on the fight at hand,” I spat out, reminding her of what had happened right before the rogues began to enter the territory.
