Chapter 48

The living room descended into an enveloping silence, the atmosphere dense with words that were not uttered and conflicts that had not been resolved.

'Didn't Delta Julian tell me that Adrian did not come to the pack house often? Then why is he here? I thought.

After what seemed like an eternity, Auntie Grace's voice broke the silence.

"Adrian."

Adrian moved up to the couches and sat down on one of them.

My attempt was to ignore him. During the time that I was listening to their conversation, I looked down at my lap.

"Did you come here to check on me? Because you don't usually come to the pack house. The only time we get to see your face is when there is a pack meeting that takes place in the pack house for any reasor "What do you mean? Would it be necessary for me to have a purpose to come to my pack house? Doesn't the pack house serve as the residence of the leader of the pack?" Adrian asked with a bored tone.

I almost scoffed at him loudly, but I controlled myself. I did not understand why he was so arrogant! It did nothing but increase my hatred for him.

with the illness of your father. We asked her to stay with us for a week," his mother spoke out, her words carefully chosen. "We appreciated her willingness to do so."

Adrian raised an eyebrow. "Stay here?"

Now, I was absolutely convinced that he did not know anything about it. I decided that if he said anything to insult me again, I would return to the hotel room right now. "You did not even think to ask for my permission and let a member of another pack stay in this pack house?" Adrian asked his parents.

I got to my feet and said to his parents,

"Uncle, Auntie, please forgive me. I can't stay here. Considering that the head Alpha does not want me to be here, then how can I stay?"

I smiled at them, but in my head, I was cursing Adrian.

"You will not go anywhere. You will stay here with us. It's not just his pack house," his father said to me. He assumed that Adrian would not agree with it.
