8 A visit to Blue Ridge Pack 2

Ramsey

How could they not be aware that their daughter was attacked ? The thought angered me more than I cared to admit .

“ What do you mean you weren’t aware ? ” I demanded , my frustration deepening .

“ Is that how little you care about her ? What kind of parents are you ? ”

Her parents shifted uncomfortably both of them lowering their gazes , including thei

ghter .

“ Alpha ! ” her father began “ Most of the time we don’t understand Lyla .

She’s always been , closed off and rarely … ”

“ Rarely does what ? ” I cut him off , my patience wearing thin .

“ Your daughter , the one you’re supposed to protect and care for ? ”

Lenny placed a hand on my arm , a silent reminder to maintain my composure but I shrugged it off .

Lyla’s absence , her family’s indifference – everything was pissing me off .

“ And where were you , ” I continued , my voice rising with every word .

“ When she was taken to the White Mountains ? You didn’t even show up to try to plead for her release .

All the other parents do .

Do you even care about her? Do you have any idea what she went through ? What she’s still going through ? And now you dare to stand here and tell me you didn’t know about the attack ? ”

The room fell into an uncomfortable silence and Luna Vanessa looked close to tears .

It was Alpha Logan who finally broke the silence .

“ Alpha Ramsey ,” he said meeting ny gaze “ Why are you so worked up about my daughter ? She’s a deviant and wolfless .

Why do you care so much ? I thought the whole purpose of taking her to the White Mountains was to have her punished for what happened at the Gala ? ”

The words hit me like a slap .

I could feel blood rushing to my head , suddenly aware of how my behaviour must seem to others .

What was I doing ? I was the Lycan Leader , I was supposed to be above such emotional displays .

And yet here I was , nearly losing control over a girl I had rejected , making a fool of

This wasn’t like me – I never lost control like this .

Taking a deep breath , I forced myself to calm down .

My mind was racing as I tried to find an explanation .

Something that would make me sound less of an idiot .

“ Still , it is my duty as the Lycan Leader , ” I said , my voice .

strained “ To ensure that packs treat their members – especially their children – with respect and care .

The words left my mouth stiff , awkward and hollow , and even as ‘ I said them , I knew ridiculous they

sounded .

Lenny quickly came forward and continued smoothly from where I stopped .

“ Perhaps , speaking with Lyla directly would be better ? ” he suggested , “ You see , we want to hear her account of the Feral attack , for research purposes course and also to check her condition so that our Pack Doctors and Healers would know what medicine works best for future situations .

Alpha Logan and his wife exchanged another glance before Logan turned to look at me .
