Chapter 197

197 A second reunion … Lyla She trailed off sniffing back tears .

That was why I was willing to let you call another woman , mother .

Because I am nothing , Lyla .

I had nothing to me .

No parents , no inheritance , I wasnt affiliated to any pack and oh , your father … she broke down in tears .

He loved you , Lyla .

Everything he did , all the times be mistreated you he did it because he had to appease his mate , but your dad , never hated you ! No ! I shook my head as tears filled my eyes again .

Dont try to defend him because you loved him .

I dont want to hear .

I dont want to hear anything again .

I turned and started walking away .

Lyla ! she ran after me .

Please you cannot leave like this .

I turned to face her , my heart breaking over and over .

I never want to see you again , Nanny .

Do you hear away from me .

Lyla , please .

Dont do this .

Dont shut me out .

But I had already turned away and continued towards the temple gates , my heart was heavy anger and filled with pain .

But I didnt look back .

I couldnt .

After I left the Moon Temple , I turned off my phone , refusing to take calls from Nanny or Nathan .

I wanted to be alone .

I wandered through Golden Gates Pack , trying to distract my thoughts .

I was still trying to figure out how to leave , perhaps , when I am calm , I could ask Nanny to help me secure passage from here back to the human world .

And this time it would be final .

I had nothing left here .

I found myself at a quiet café overlooking a mountain and took a space on the tables outside .
