THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE novel Chapter 222

“I should never have brought your stepmother into our home. I should never have married her. I've lived my whole life regretting that decision and making you suffer for it. To top it all I’ve been a terrible father to you.”

“Dad.”

“Your mother hails from the Blue Diamond Pack. Her family is quite wealthy and influential in the Pack so it won't be hard to find her once you get there. All you have to do is mention her name when searching for her and you'll find her.”

Last night, all I imagined was this moment happening and the smile that'll appear on my face once my father told me everyday I needed to know, but now that he has, I can't bring myself to be happy or even smile because of the sadness I see in his eyes.

The man deeply regrets his life decisions and I can only imagine how miserable he feels right now. He's stuck with a woman he doesn't love. A witch!

“Thank you, father.” I'm still not smiling when I say those words of thanks to him.

“There's no need to thank me. I should have done this a long time ago.” He pulls me into his arms again and hugs me with all his might. When we look at each other again, I now have the courage to smile at him. “They also told me about your relationship with Alpha Reagan. I'm so happy for you.”

Tears well up in my eyes again.

“I always knew you were destined for great things. For a very bright future and this is it. You will be Luna of Lycans. That's huge.” I let my chuckle out. My eyes are hot from all the tears that have accumulated in them. “I'm sure you'll do a terrific job ruling over these Lycans!” A chuckle escapes my lips.

“You're defending her against me.”

“Something I should have done everyday of my life! Rhea got herself in this mess. You heard what the messenger said. She bullied her sister time and again and tried to set her up for a crime she did not commit. How can you still take Rhea's side after hearing all of that?”

“Whose side am I supposed to take, hers?” She points an accusing finger towards me. “I'd rather die than do that. If Rhea is sentenced to die today, her blood will be on your head. You Ashanti! You are the reason why my daughter will die an untimely death and I will never forgive you for that!” She screams at the top her voice and storms out of the room. My father gives me an apologetic look and I simply shake my head, making him understand that it's okay.

This is the payment she gets for raising her daughter to be an entitled brat!
