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 .
