Alpha's Rejected Mate

Six years later - Anaya stood in front of her parents with her head bowed.

Tears well up in her eyes but she did not let them fall.It was fascinating how much control she had over her own tears.

Their falling was up to her but their appearance was not.

Anaya's mother, Ginny, always had a frown between her eyebrows when she looked at her eldest daughter.It was as it she was remembering the most unpleasant time of her life.

Her father, Edgar, was no better.

The displeasure in their eyes was as real as it could get.

Anaya didn't dare look them in the eyes.

It frightened her to see the amount of negative emotions they had to her.

They seemed to ask her, why didn't you die instead of Arnold? Why are you still alive when my son died? You should have died too..

Anaya squeezed her fingers together until the tips turned while with the lack of blood.

"Mom, dad, don't say anything to Anaya anymore! She didn't do anything.It was my fault for running around carelessly!"

Charlotte sat on the sofa in a nice dress and spoke in a soft voice.

Her sister was ten years old already but the childish glow had not faded from her. She was speaking up for Anaya today, but Anaya only wanted her to stop.Didn't she know that the more she spoke the angrier her parents were? 

"You don't know anything Charlotte, go back to your room.Today I'll set her straight!"

Ginny clenched her teeth picked up the leather whip again.Edgar snorted and didn't try to stop her.

"Mom no!" Charlotte said with red eyes.
