Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 554

“Daddy!” Shannon whined, but I held up my hand.

“Well…that was unexpected and actually refreshing.” My father’s voice was icy. “But Ainsley is my mate, and you will never get the chance to see her again.”

Morgan seemed to shut down at the thought, but he just nodded. “Fair. Can you do me one small favor though, Alpha Maclean?” The soft respect in his voice was even more surprising than his words.

“Maybe.” My father’s voice was still hard.

“Can you just tell her I’m sorry…for everything.” My eyebrows raised in surprise.

“Fine.” There was an enormous boom over the call.

“Daddy?” I grabbed for the phone as a loud crack that I felt in my bones rippled on his side, then there was the sound of falling rocks. “Daddy!” I called again, and I watched as a smile spread over Vince’s face. “Talk to me.”

I heard a few coughs, and then my father’s voice sounded worried. “Explosive! Get out of the caves now. Evacuate now. Baby, I have to go. The caves are collapsing.” The call ended, and I just stared at the phone as if it would change. Like the call would somehow pick back up and his voice would be there.

Shannon snickered. “Oh, well.”

I turned to her, and I smiled. “Amusing, isn’t it?”

Her face froze. “What?”

“It’s funny that my pack is in danger once again, right? That your plan has failed, and your life is in my hand, but listening to others potentially die is quite fun, isn’t it?”

She scoffed. “I never said that.”

I walked over to Vince and picked him up by his throat. “You didn’t have to, Shannon. You snickered while you listened to me call after my father. Pretty pointed, don’t you think?” Vince choked.

“I’m not her father. It doesn’t really hit the same way.” Vince tried to explain. “If you are going to kill someone to make a point…it should be Morgan.”
