“Chris, No!! Daddy… Noo!! Dadd…” Ethlyn, her mother, and her sister screamed in horror. Ethlyn’s father shifted into his midnight black and grey wolf and attacked Nathan without giving him a chance to fight back. Christian would have killed him for sure, but Nathan’s security members wouldn’t have interrupted in between.
The wolfsbane was injected into Christan to calm his wolf down, and the moment he shifted into human form, butt-naked, Nathan ordered. “Take him to the cell and tie his hands and legs with silver chain.”
“Nathan, please!! Don’t do this to my dad.” Ethlyn begged, holding his feet as she was still on the ground because of pain.
Nathan pushed her away with his legs.
“I, Nathan Gayle, Alpha of Wind Winder Pack, reject you, Ethlyn Smith, as my mate and Luna to this pack.” He announced, looking at her in disgust.
“Nathan, there is some misunderstanding, for sure. Please don’t take this decision in haste.” Ethlyn tried to convince her mate cum her best friend; they had been together since childhood, despite their age difference of four years, and then got marked two months back after the news of her pregnancy. She was about to say more, but then she saw the Beta of the pack dragging the unconscious body of her father in front of her with a silver cuff on her father’s wrist.
“Accept the rejection and leave, Ethlyn, before Nathan would do something really bad with you or with your pup.” Nathan’s mother said in concern. The former Luna had always considered her as her daughter, but she had never thought that Ethlyn could stoop so low.
“Mom, please trust me!! It’s….”
“Stop it, Ethlyn. Stop your lie. I always knew Nathan was sterile. I hid this information with you, Nathan, and your family, so that I didn’t want you to reject Nathan. But at the same time, I didn’t expect you to start naming someone’s pup as Nathan’s because there is no way this pup could be of Nathan.” Nathan’s mother yelled at Ethlyn this time.
“Moon Goddess, if Nathan’s father would have been alive, then he would have died of shame by seeing your shameless act.” She added with disgust.
“I, Ethlyn Smith, daughter of former Beta Christian Smith of Wind Winder Pack, accept the rejection of Alpha Nathan Gayle,” Ethlyn said, wiping her tears, and all of a sudden, she was hit by a strong wave of pain, breaking her heart into pieces. Her wolf cried in pain, but at the same time, she knew she had to stay strong for her pups.
She looked at everyone and realized that everyone was either hating her at that moment or feeling disgust for her. She didn’t have to go very far. Her own mother and sister were looking at her in that way. The only person who could have stood by her side was now in the cell.
“You and the father of your pup can leave my pack right now, right here,” Nathan ordered, not even looking at her.
‘Father of your pup.’ That word repeated in her mind. Little did anyone know, she knew nothing about the father of her pup if he wasn’t Nathan. She didn’t remember sharing any night other than with Nathan.
“What happened? Why do you so lost?” Ethlyn’s mother asked. “Who is the father of your pup?” She asked again.
‘Cinder?’ Ethlyn asked her wolf.
‘I don’t remember cheating on our mate. The only night I was out was the night when I was in heat.’ Cinder replied, recalling all her nights. ‘But before that, we were with our mate. So, there’s no way our way he can leave us in that state, can he?’ She asked.
Ethlyn looked at her ex-mate suspiciously, wondering if he was behind all this.
Or the people she was surrounded with?
“Who’s the father of your pup, Ethlyn?” Her younger sister, Reva, asked, to which Ethlyn chuckled at her situation. She herself didn’t know the answer to this question.
“Why does it matter to you both now?” Ethlyn questioned, especially her mother, who didn’t care to confront about the same the moment she had figured it out the pup inside her wasn’t Nathan’s. She stood up on her feet, wiping all her tears. She wanted to tell her that she didn’t know the father of her pup, but at the same time, she knew she would be tagged with many names like slut, whore, prostitute, and god knows what more; after all, she would have slept with how many men because of which she didn’t know the name of her pup’s father.
“I can’t believe you. After doing this shameful act, you have no sign of regret or guilt in your tone.” Ethlyn’s mother scolded on which Reva and tried to calm her down.
“Who could have Ethlyn could something like this?” Nathan’s mother said, shaking her head. “Anyways, packs your things and leave.”
“Pack her things? What’s here that she has earned?” Nathan mocked and looked at the ring on her finger and then the pendant on her neck. “Even all things belong to mine. Give back to me.”
