Chapter 81
Chapter 81
Dahlia
Hearing that the Alpha King is coming unannounced is surprising enough but then hearing that the Crimson Moon leaders are following him in? That damn bratty pup ran straight to them, didn’t he?! When I get my hands on him, I’m going to make sure he learns who he’s messing with! It seems that I’m way too soft on him.
I grit my teeth but as they walk up, all I can do is put on a fake cheerful smile. Seeing that mutt walk up with her head held high makes me want to slap her and put her back in her place. How dare she?l “Greetings, my Alpha King,” I say instead to give a good first impression of the Alpha King. “What can we do for you?”
Beside me, Tristian lets out a small gasp and I look at him from the corner of my eye. His body is tense and his eyes are wide. I follow his gaze and narrow my eyes. Why is he staring at that mutt?! “… Daisy…” He chokes out pathetically. “Daisy…”
Does he still want her? I grit my teeth. Even if Magnus is more fun… Tristian is still my chosen mate. “I believe Aiden and Daisy can answer that for me The Alpha King says in a cold tone. I look over to him and can’t help but check him out. Xander the Alpha King… how fun he must be to mess around with! My mouth almost starts to water but then my blood goes cold. “After all, your crimes are against their pup.”
Tristian growls next to me and I can’t help but scowl at him. Why did he react only when that mutt’s name was called? “Daddy?” I look down at my precious Gracie as she reaches out to Tristian and touches him. He turns green and jerks his arm away from her. “D–daddy!” Tears come to her eyes but
he ignores her making me snarl lowly. How dare he!
“We’re here because of what you’ve done to my pup.” The mutt’s voice is strong and confident. I glare at her as she speaks. “Not only did your Luna kidnap my pup, but you all had a hand in abusing him too.” How can she stand there like she owns the place?
“Your pup?!” I snarl and glare at them. “Keith was always mine! You stole him from me and replaced him with your dead pup! How could you be so cruel to me, huh?!” That’s right! She stole my pup and now is trying to throw it back all on me?! The nerve of some…
“That’s a lie,” Crimson Moon’s Alpha, Aiden says in a clipped tone. Yet another man who is sweet eye candy… too bad he has terrible taste in women! “I
was there by her side when she gave birth to our son. His name is Skylar, not Keith. From what I heard, you gave birth to a little girl and not a little boy. You may have been in agony, but that doesn’t justify kidnapping Skylar.”
Memories of that night flicker in my mind. The agony of giving birth then the sorrow of hearing that she was dead… what would they know of my pain!! hold Gracie tightly and let out a roar. “Liar!!!” She jumps in my arms and reaches out to Tristian. “How do you explain that pup looking like Tristian, huh?!
There’s no way he’s her pup!”
Tristian ignores Gracie but turns pale as if something just slapped him across the face. “Why don’t you ask your pack doctor?”
As the mutt points out Jim in the crowd, I glare at her and tune everything out. I already know what happened. I was the one who caught Tristian in bed with her and took him away. I made sure he thought he had slept with me while also making sure she woke up alone. What I didn’t expect was for her to make an attempt on her life because of it. However… I don’t have an ounce of regret about it.
“Now you know,” The mutt finishes. “Skylar is my son. There’s no question about it. And I’ll never forgive any of you.” This makes me snap. She won’t forgive us? Looking to the side, I see how pathetic and broken Tristian is. I scowl as I realize he never fully completed the rejection. He still feels their
connection while the mutt has moved on.
“Why should we care about your forgiveness?” I ask without a second thought. The mutt meets my eyes her eyes turning gold. My heart races suddenly Naomi! However, her eyes only darken but I don’t falter. “I still believe he’s my pup that you stole. You merely brainwashed him into following and lov
you!”
…
Naomi only tilts her head to the side. How pathetic you are, Dahlia. You too, Sunny, for allowing this to happen.” She says in an irritatingly calm tone. “If you truly believed he was your pup, you wouldn’t have abused him as much as you did. You would have loved and cherished him as any mother would. You’re lying to yourself if you believe that.”
I grit my teeth as Naomi talks down to me but I can’t find a way to retort anything. Instead, Gracie sniffles and speaks up. “I–is big brother ok?” I look at her and see how afraid and sad she looks./G-Gracie no mean it…” My heart melts and I hug her gently. The poor thing doesn’t know how bad Keith isl She’s just a sweetheart.

Chapter 81
“That girl…” Xander mutters making me look up. “Her father… isn’t a wolf like us.” This makes me tense. How does he?” recognize those red anyway. Magnus… you’re involved with Magnus! It all makes sense now.” His eyes darken. “She’s part demon.”
This puzzled me. Demon? Isn’t Magnus just a warlock? I look down at Gracie who looks confused as well. “What? That Daddy!” She points to Tristan. “Maggie friend!” She says firmly. I never told her who her real father was as I didn’t want to confuse her. Besides, until now, Tristian was an amazing
father to her.
“That’s where you’re wrong, little one.” That voice sends shivers down my spine. Magnus walks up and stands next to me. “I am your father, Gracie He
looks at Xander and grins. “Greetings, Xander. It’s been a while, huh?”
Xander glares at him and I’m just so confused. Do they know each other? “Xander?” Aiden speaks up and I see him frowning. “What’s going on? Why is he important?” He looks just as confused as everyone around me.
“It all makes sense now,” Xander mutters as Magnus smirks. “That’s how Skylar’s memories were locked away. It was all because of you. He narrows his eyes. “Why are you getting involved in such things again? Didn’t I warn you already? Why are you going back on our agreement?”
