"No, it's not like that. Alina, you are mistaken. I have never wanted to get rid of you. Our pack is always your home and your support," I disputed her claims and clarified everything for her again.

Alina shook her head to show that she didn't believe me. "That's enough, Dad. Chet is dead, and your plan is ruined. You don't have to lie to me anymore."
