Kit’s POV “Katrina will do no such thing.” Alpha Jace said as he moved to my side, wrapping a protective arm around me, as he let his Alpha’s presence known to my father. My father’s eyes moved from mine to Alpha Jace, as he says, “I am sorry Alpha, but I do not know your reasonings to interfere with my daughter’s and my dealings, nor do I know who you are.” Alpha Jace lets out a low growl towards my father, obviously not liking the fact of what my father said, nor liking the fact that my father feels it’s none of his business. “Let me introduce myself. My name is Alpha Jace of the Mystic Shadow pack, and I am your daughter’s mate. Your dealings with her very much do concern me, and I will not allow you to disrespect her by asking her to prostitute her body out to Alpha Domonic for the sake of your family’s name, especially when she is mated to me.” My father’s eyes moved from Alpha Jace’s to my own, before his eyes moved
Kit’s POV Turning back once again to my father, I wonder what the other reasoning was that my father wanted to see me, as I couldn’t imagine that it could be anything good from our previous conversation. “What is it then father?” I asked him, wanting more than ever to just head back to my new home with Alpha Jace. “It seems your sister wants nothing to do with my affairs, nor does her husband. She has her hands full with her children and she is expecting another one. The responsibility now falls onto your shoulders, to make sure that my estate is taken care of once I pass.” My father tells me, giving me a hard blow, because I too want nothing to do with the estate either or this pack. “I’m sorry father, but my hands right now are full too. I also have a child, a pack, and a mate to attend too.” I told him, telling a partial lie because I wasn’t quite yet the Luna of the pack, but on the next blood moon I would be. My fath
Kit’s POV Alpha Jace sat with me in the hallway, as he held my hand, trying to comfort me, while I prayed to the Moon Goddess that my words hadn’t killed my father, making me have to live with another regret in my life. Even though I had hatred in my heart towards my father and the way he treated me, I didn’t want to be the means to the end of his life. The door to my father’s room at that moment opened, and Alpha Jace and I stood immediately as the pack doctor appeared with a look on his face that told me whatever news he had to tell us wasn’t going to be good. “Ms. Katrina, I hate to be the one to give you this news, but your father has only days to live, if that. His health has declined quite a bit since my last visit, as the disease has taken over most of his lungs.” “There’s nothing we can do for him?” I asked the pack doctor, as I held on tightly to Alpha Jace’s hand for support, after hearing what the pack doctor had just confesse
Kit’s POV “If you don’t feel safe here, I can send some of my men to protect you and Damian.” Alpha Jace says to me, as we stand outside by his vehicle, while he is getting ready to leave me here alone with my father. There was no threat that I felt that his men were needed here, that they could help me with. What I needed was moral support from my father, and that was just something that he could only give me. “No, I will be fine. There’s no need to send your men here.” I told him, secretly wishing that he could stay with me, because I felt safer from my father with him around, knowing that he would stand up for me against him. But with him leaving now, I didn’t have to worry about my father slipping up, telling him about the pills I took all those years ago to suppress my wolf. Alpha Jace leaned in and kissed me on the forehead, before telling me, “I will call you daily to make sure you are okay, but don’t hesitate to call me if you ne
Kit’s POV Days have gone by, and even though I am in my childhood home, I feel like a prisoner and a servant to my father, and I wondered if this was why he wanted me home to care for him. Did he want to see me beneath his feet acting as a servant to him in his dying days, making me feel like I was never going to amount to anything since I had gone against his wishes for me. I had already paid dearly for those mistakes that I had made, but he didn’t know that, and he also didn’t know that every day I lived with the reminder of those mistakes, as not a day goes by, that I don’t have regrets for what I have done. “Can you not do anything right?” My father asks me as he pulls his arm from me, that I am now being forced to bathe. “Your sister is so much better at this, than you are.” He then says, scolding me because for some reason it isn’t up to his standards, and reminding me that she is now his golden child, even though I had showed up h
Kit’s POV A few more days had passed, and my sister finally returned to see our father, and I decided to take the day and spend it outside with Damian, since we haven’t had much time together since we got here, but thankfully Damian had been very understanding of his grandfather's condition and has kept himself occupied. Today though, he looked happier than ever since my sister brought her son along, and I watched as the two of them played together as cousins should, outside on the playset and in the sandbox. The fresh air felt inviting, as the cool breeze tickled my skin, replenishing my lost energy from taking care of my father nonstop for days now, and my father hadn’t let up on his hurtful words and expressing his feelings towards me.After what Ms. Caroline told me, I found myself biting my tongue with my father, because I was the reason once again that caused my family’s name to be ruined. But this time it was Dom and not his father that had cause
Kit’s POV Our eyes met for the first time in over seven years, and I felt myself frozen in place as I stared into the eyes of my fated mate, the man that I had hidden myself from all this time. His features had slightly changed, as he looked maturer and more distinguished, and to be honest time had done him justice. A whirlwind of emotions came flooding back to me as I stood there staring at him, and I knew it was the bond still trying to bring us together, but it was far too late for that. Dom was mated, and I was soon to be mated myself, and there was no going back from the decision I had made all those years ago.Ms. Caroline came rushing to me at that moment, as she leans in and says to me, “I am sorry Ms. Katrina. I tried to tell him we weren’t accepting visitors, but he is the Alpha.”My father’s men stood there looking at me, waiting for me to make the call, but I knew if I tried to force him from my father’s home, it would only cause more issues
Kit’s POV “What was that all about?” My sister asked me, as she descended the stairs, and I knew that she had listened in on my conversation with Dom. Not answering her, I began to walk back the hallway, that led out to the backyard, to make sure that Damian was okay, as she began to follow me as she continued to talk, not dropping her pursuit to find out, as she now says. “Didn’t sound like nothing.” Stopping at the back door, I saw Damian through the window, assuring me that he was fine, before I turned back to her, because I didn’t want to have this conversation in front of him, not knowing what would come from my sister’s lips. “If you must know, I will be having a meeting with Alpha Domonic to discuss the matter of our family’s name being cleared, and reinstated to how it was before I had left.” I told her, and she looked at me in disbelief. “And what did you offer him in return?” She asks me, as if I
