Chapter 0489

“Lily.” Anders says, breaking the tension in the room. “How would you feel about moving out of your parents‘ home and into the packhouse?”

She looks at everyone in the room before answering. I sit down, taking her hand again. “What would happen to my parents? Especially my mother. I don’t think she knows anything about what my father is doing.”

“I will confront your father and tell him that I am taking over your care until you turn 18. Your mother can choose to come live with you here or stay with your father. Your father will not be allowed to see you unless he receives permission from me first. The punishment he receives because of his intent to sell you to pay his gambling debts will be between he and I.‘

She nods, thinking before responding. “I would like to move into the packhouse. I might have felt differently before becoming a Guardian, but now, I don’t think I can trust my father.” She hesitates before continuing. “I don’t think my mother will leave him to stay here with me. Does that matter?”

Patrick smiles at her. “No, as I said, I will take over as your parental guardian until you turn 18. I will have a room made up for you on Beta Calvin’s floor. That way, he can help me keep an eye on you.” He says this to Lily but he’s looking at me. His intent is clear, stay out of Lily’s room and her bed. Obviously, she’s made it clear that she’s waiting for her mate. since I’m her mate, she’s basically saving herself for me. I give him a nod that I understand.

“I’ll be speaking to your parents tonight, Lily. Tomorrow, you can go get your things or I can have someone pick them up for you.”
