74 Funeral arrangment …

Lylan

“ Hey ! ” Nathan pressed me closer to him .

“ Are you alright ? Can I get you anything ? ” he murmured .

“ No ! ” I shook my head slowly “ H – How did he die ? Was he sick ? ”

There was a small pause from Nathan’s end before he replied .

“ He wasn’t .

They were on their way back from the Annual Moon Goddess Worship Ceremony when they were attacked .

The Ferals killed a hundred warriors and six elders that travelled with them .

They injured Elder Eldric … ”

“ Ramsey’s grandfather ? ”

“ Yes ! ” Nathan nodded .

“ With your father dead , I think he’s the only survivor left and maybe a few other Alphas .

They all ran away when they attack started .

They said your father fought bravely and took wounds for the Elder Eldric … “ .

“ Won’t be surprise , a fond smile played on my lips .

“ Dad has a deep sense of responsibility and loyalty .

How is my mother and my sister ?

“ They’re not fine , especially Luna Vanessa , ” Nathan sighed .

“ They’re barely getting by .

My dad … he doesn’t say but I can see it in his eyes .

Your father was a good man and everyone in the pack

loves him and we’ll miss him .

“ I guess ,” I shrugged , wriggling out of Nathan’s hold .

“ Everyone except me .

“ C’mon , Lyla ! ” Nathan sighed “ He’s still your father .

I know … ”

“ I know that and I’m not happy that he died too , Nathan .

There was a time when I was Daddy’s little girl but that was a long time ago .

I just can’t share the pain .

I don’t know , I think I feel numb .

There’s sadness in my heart but that’s it , I’m sorry and thank you for telling me .

I walked towards the bedroom door .

It was morning already and I had to prepare for work .

“ I didn’t come here just to tell you , Lyla ! ” Nathan followed after me .

“ You need to come back to Blue Ridge with me .

We were in the bathroom now and I had pasted my brush .

I stared at him through the mirror , an amused smile on my face .

“ I don’t think my father would want me to attend his burial .
