Aylee's POV
"So stop f*****g questioning me!" I hear my father scream loudly and I close my eyes, trying my best to remain calm despite the chaos at my home every single day.
"It wasn't mom's fault. It's mine. I asked her to join me for lunch," I finally said that made everyone stop talking and look at me.
Liza is just sitting silently beside dad. Mom and I on the other side. It's been three days since Liza is here and mom was just in her room reading books. I didn't like that she was alone. So I asked her to join me for lunch. Because Liza and my father were out on a picnic.
Who knew it would suddenly start raining so they would come back. My father saw my mom out of her room and Liza fell silent from then. She could have stopped my father in an instant but she just loves watching the show. Stupid b***h.
"You don't say-"
"Yes. I will," I say and look at him.
I am growing more and more tired of all this s**t. Everyone's family out there is having peaceful days and calm meals and here my family is. Pure chaos. My mom who gave up on my dad. My dad who has a mistress, who apparently was already married to another man. And then, they both tried their best to lock my mom up in her own room. And me. The Alpha. The one who was never liked because apparently it's a sin by just being a mere girl child.
"What the f**k is wrong with this family?" I ask, standing up.
"Liza, can you please be kind and leave this home now? At least for a while," I ask her and she looks at dad.
"Why do you want her to leave?" He asked me. I look at Liza who is not even moving an inch and it's only making me angrier.
"Because I am the Alpha. I am your daughter. You are my father. She is my mother and the wench sitting here is an outsider!" I scream.
The next thing I know is that my father slapped me. My cheek stung and I felt a metallic taste in my mouth. I open my mouth and feel the blood on my tongue so I close it back.
I look at my dad and he looks like he is slowly starting to regret what he just did. Liza seems pretty shocked too.
I hold my mom's hand and walk out of the house. I am not stepping my foot in it again and maybe since Colton was right outside the door, he heard what was happening.
He didn't say anything as he guided both my mom and me to his house which was closer to the pack house.
Once we were in, that's when my mom started crying.
"I shouldn't have come out," she sobs but I stay silent.
Colton brought mom and I towels. It's raining outside and we are drenched. I don't say a word as I take that and pat dry myself. I walked to his washroom and took a shower as Colton said he would bring mom's and my belongings with the help of the working Omegas.
An hour later, mom and I are both fresh and so is Colton.
"I am sorry," mom says but I shake my head.
It's not her fault. Really.
"It's his fault for choosing someone else over his mate and his daughter. Not yours or mine, maa" I say and she cries a little more.
"We aren't going back again," I say again and she looks at me.
"We aren't going back again," she repeats after me and I smile.
She goes ahead and cooks dinner for the three of us. Sometimes I think that my mom knows what's between Colton and I but she just chooses to ignore it. Because she didn't question how Colton has my undergarments here at his place.
As we were having lunch together again, this time at peace.. finally came a letter that was addressed to me. And on it, is the seal of The Nightfall Pack and the name Alpha Farrell on it.
I ripped it open to see his handwriting for the first time. It's even more beautiful than mine will ever be.
"It is sad that I couldn't meet you when you were here that night. But I want to let you know that I am coming to meet you soon. I can't surely say when, but I wish it would be soon. I am on my journey to conquer it all. So if I accidentally wage a war against your pack, make sure to throw me on the ground and step your foot on my neck. But not too hard, okay?"
"Why is he flirting with you?" Colton asked me and I realized he also read the letter along with me.
"That doesn't seem like flirting. He is silently waging a war," I whisper.
But just the thought of him is making me feel so different from the inside. Something is really wrong with me. And deep down, even I wonder why he was being a little flirty instead of being formal like every other Alpha.
