Elaine POV
I hadn’t said a word the entire drive home. No one spoke to me. I curled into a ball and buried my head in my sleeve until the car parked.
“Get out,” Dad ordered.
“I will,” I snapped.
I didn’t want to see him. My eyes were swollen from crying and my wolf was angry and broken from being ripped from her mate again.
“Don’t you want to see your Mother,” Dad snapped back.
“What?” I looked up meeting his eyes for the first time.
As usual, his witch Avena wasn’t far.
She frowned. “Laiken, I wouldn’t advise on that.”
“I’m the Alpha, Avena and I don’t want your advice. I don’t need it right now.”
Avena lifted her chin but refused to look defeated. It was the first time Dad ever rebuffed her.
“You’re just going to take me to her? Just like that?” I asked.
He clenched his jaw
