Chapter 105Leila's povComing back to my senses, I couldn't help but stay still without a sound. Anyone outside of the cage could assume that I'm dead. I closed my eyes, trying my best to assume that I was dead and gone but then my brain went back to memory lane. Staring up at an unknown try, I watched my father come and lift me up. "There are fruits up there. Plug one for yourself," he said from nowhere. Excited, I quickly plugged it and chewed on it. "Nice? Now plug another for later," he said and I plugged again, another falling right after that. He pulled me down and then nodded at me. Taking my fruit in my hand, I quickly moved away because the bonds between me and my father were yet to be formed and I could barely strike a conversation with him."What are you doing?" he said as he approached me minutes later." "I'm trying to save for later," I said as I washed the fruits and tried saving them in a bag."It's a good thing but it will spoil cause these are ripened fruits. So
Chapter 106Leila's pov"Good!" he replied me and then left me there. A few minutes later, I then went into my room and lay on my bed."I love you, mom. I miss you so much." I whispered.The next day, I woke up feeling incredibly tired but I didn't want to remain there on the bed doing nothing. Coming down, I picked up the broom at the back of the door and started sweeping it. When I was done, I entered the bathroom and cleaned up for the day, then went into the sitting room to do some chores. That was the first day I officially met with Amelia. "Hi! I am Leila!" I had said to her, all dressed up in a pink gown that my mother had specifically given to me. She looked at me from head to toe and after a long time of staying silent, she stood up and walked past me.I turned back to look at her only to see her going up the stairs looking all aggravated."Did I offend her?" I asked myself as I then turned and started dusting the chairs. I needed to keep the place very clean even though I h
Chapter 107Leila's povI could perceive both mother and daughter wondering how I managed to stay calm. "Are you sure about this?" my father asked me and I smiled. "why do I feel like you are trying to give this girl the audacity to insult me and my child?" Sonia asked my father."don't start. She clearly wants peace to reign and that's why she's giving up her dress.""Excuse me? Make me clear. You are choosing her over us?" "You shouldn't think that way. She's my child too and yours you know.""I knew it. I just knew that one day you would choose this thing over me and my child," she said through gritted teeth and walked away. Instantly, my father ran after her. Then Amelia ran after them. Confused, I followed and met Amelia at the door."Leave here!" she whispered. It was clear she didn't want anyone to hear her voice and she didn't want to see me either but I didn't mind her and placed my ears on the door to hear what Amelia was hearing."You dare to choose her over me and Amel
Chapter 108Leila's povI just hope she doesn't try to claim those cause it was all I had. On thinking about that, I decided to hide it. There was no way I wanted to joke with such important gifts that contained countless memories from my mother. Sitting on the bed, I thought about all I have had to go through since I stepped my feet in here and wondered what it would be like to be here for ages."Mom I miss you." I couldn't help but say and then walked onto the balcony and looked down at the pack. I saw some girls my age running around the field that wasn't far away and couldn't help but smile, seeing just how excited they were. It reminded me of when I took pride in running around the garden.I had the mindset of going down there to greet them but then I stopped myself. Who would I tell them I am? I thought to myself and then concluded that I was Carlson's daughter wherever I go after all he's my father, right?I then took the back stairs and ran out of the building. When I got out,
Chapter 109Leila's povSonia looked at me looking very confused, probably wondering how I got the balls to talk back at her. I didn't really want to but I knew if I didn't do it that way, I would be incredibly bullied and I may not be able to get myself out of the situation easily."Mom, is she an heir or some kind of princess? I heard she has strong powers. How true is it?" Amelia asked her mother.I froze."she has no powers, Amelia. She's so powerless. Don't feel intimidated by her okay? You are the princess. Only you.""right, Mom thanks a lot I'm very grateful.""I will spare you today. I hope this doesn't repeat itself again," she said to me and told me to leave.Smiling, I walked into my room like I had no issues in the world. Did they really think they could do anything they wanted? I thought and lay on my bed. The next day, there was a meeting with the Alpha so my father being a beta had to be present. After breakfast, he left home for the meeting. I was thinking about wha
Chapter 110Leila's pov"Dad...""Keep quiet. Do I need to remind you that you are older than this girl or is this just you being incredibly naughty?" he asked me."you are not letting me speak," I said to him."okay speak then," he said to me."I never sent anyone to her. She approached me first with a group of girls to intimidate me and my girlfriend. My mother taught me a whole lot about a bully. I can't let anyone bully me and you shouldn't be concerned about protecting them.""if I don't protect them, who will?""Why do you feel the need?" I asked him and he paused for a second."Because look at her... She's my mate and this is my daughter. So you see, it's almost impossible to not want to protect them.""You never protected by mother... Why dad?" I asked him and watched him step back a little. I could see just how uncomfortable he was."You are suspended from going out for the whole week and yes, you can always revert it by you know, simply apologizing. "Banned from going out?
Chapter 111Leila's pov"Worked? What worked?" I asked her and she smiled."you coming out of course. It worked perfectly. You shouldn't have been in there, it's against the law of this pack. Know your right Leila" she said to me and I couldn't help but smile at how kind she was."Thank you so much, Alessia," I said, hugging her again. I spent my whole evening out and when we were done playing, I ran back home to my new family already ready for dinner. I saw the dishes already set and was tempted to look at them.I loved cooking but ever since I stepped in here, I had not gotten the opportunity to cook. When I was with my mother, I cooked with her every freaking day. Would love to request but even at my young age, I already knew I would never be on completely good terms with Sonia and her child. I climbed the stairs to go to my room when I heard my father clear his throat."Leila!" he then said and I turned to look at him. "Why did you report me to the Alpha?" he asked."Honey I tol
Chapter 112Leila's pov"How do you mean I still have healthy tears? Do you really think I want to have to go through things like this every day?" I asked her."it's okay if she wants to do drama. You just have to do as I say," she said to me and I paused to look at her."What don't have to do?""Play along every single time. If she's in pain, you are in pain too," she said to her."You mean pretend?""That's the best. Only chill when it involves injury cause of course you can't injure yourself for something so stupid," she said to me and I couldn't help but smile."You are right."Though I took her advice, I couldn't help but give Amelia a very high space whenever I wasn't in my room after all she didn't visit my room as it was considered my personal space.One morning, I woke up feeling graceful. Looking out through the window, I couldn't help but admire the scenery from where I stood. Then I walked into my bathroom to brush my teeth. Picking up my brush, I started bridging then loo
