The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

"Serves him right." With the way he's fuming, if Conrad were to appear in front of him right now, he'd punch the living hell out of him. It makes me feel so good.

"My father cheated on my mother too." I ride. He looks at me and blinks rapidly in shock. I nod my head. "Yeah, he did. Worst of all, she was his mate, but he cheated on her and that led to the birth of Rhea." "That was a messed up situation."

"It was. It used to be just my mum, dad and I, but suddenly, one day, he came home with Rhea and her mum. Rhea was still a little girl. About three years old at the time. He told my mum about his infidelity and said he had to marry Rhea mum no matter what."

"No, he didn't!"

"Yes he did and he married her. My mum was devastated. She couldn't take the heartbreak and the shame so she left. I was about four years old when that happened and I've never seen her again. Whenever I tried to ask my father about her, he would scold me and threaten to beat me up, so I stopped asking. Right now I don't even know if my mother is still alive or not."

"Wow!" He exclaims under his breath. "Your father was cruel to your mother."

"Yes, he was." I try to smile. I have the urge to beg him to grant me permission to find my mother, but on a second thought, I shove the idea off a cliff. Maybe some other time, not now.
