CHAPTER 5

" What's going on?" I asked as my voice croaked a little.

" Let's go and sit down." Mom says taking me into the kitchen. So, we went back into the kitchen and my father was sitting at the table with a beer in his hand and the Alpha also had a beer. But he wasn't doing much talking while my mother made a coffee for me and herself.

" What about me? This is my house?" Victoria asked.

" What about you?" I snapped out without realizing it. And then I clamped my lips shut as I looked at Alpha Jackson.

"You look good. Did you just come from training?" Mom asked changing the subject.

" I hear the head trainer Ethan is a really good guy. He has trained some great warriors here." Mom's mate Isaac says. I tried to stop myself from blushing but I think it came through a little bit.

" She's got the hots for him. That's why she goes every night."

Victoria snickered in the background.

" Jealous?” I asked.

"I've told you not to talk to Victoria like that." Thomas snapped at me. And mom looked over at Thomas in shock and surprise. She had to physically close her mouth because she couldn't do it on her own.

" She's the one that started it." Mom snapped back. Hell yeah. I forgot what it was like to have people on my side. Mom would always be on my side.

But then I realized that Alpha Jackson was still sitting at the table staring at me but hadn't said a word. So | actually turned to look at him staring directly at him to try to prove I wasn't scared.

" So, you wanted to talk to me." I say.

" People have told me that you moved here a year ago. Just after Lucas took control of your pack. Is that true?" Jackson asked.

"Yes." I say.

" The longest damn year of my life." Victoria muttered and I gave her a sideways glare. It hasn't exactly been a picnic for me either, witch.

" Do you want me to staple your fucking mouth shut? Because I'll do it." I snapped at her. And she looked at my father but this time he didn't say anything.

“ What was your relationship like with Lucas?" He asked.
