Chapter 28

Cara’s POV

I was a little worried about opening the envelope. It was addressed to me, but it had been spelled. I guess that was why it hadn’t been opened before. It still had a wax seal on it, and knew it had to be from my mother as it had an S imprinted in the wax. I was wondering how long it had been in my father’s safe. I was glad that I had something from my mother, but i was nervous to open it.

The moment I opened the letter, I could tell my life would change completely. I didn’t know how to feel about that. I wanted to know what my mother had sent me. I also wanted to know how long my father had kept this letter from me. I am saddened to know he didn’t giv it to me after I turned eighteen. He told me how much I had disappointed him the day I didn receive my wolf. In his eyes, I was his greatest shame.

It hurt me deeply to know that something that was completely out of my control was why h was so disappointed in me. Each and every time he chose to compliment my sisters on the wolves, it cut deep. He had nothing nice to say to me after he knew I didn’t have a wolf. He fell in love with a witch and knew I would be a hybrid. This whole situation was not my fault and yet I have suffered for the sins of my father all these years.

He was the one who fell in love with her. He was the one who courted and pursued her until she finally gave in to his assurance that they would be together forever. Apparently forever for my father was until he met his true mate. I was the daily reminder he didn’t wait for his mate. The reminder was that he had found someone he wanted and stopped looking for his mate. Nothing in what happened was under my control, but I was the one who suffered because of it.

I think the real reason that my father was so angry about me not being a wolf was the luck of being a hybrid. It was rumored that sometimes the child got the strengths of the more powerful one in the couple. That meant the whole pack knew that my mother was more powerful than he was. I knew his pride took it hard, that was why he wrote me off that day. My heart still hurts at seeing the disappointment in his eyes when he said, “I should have let you leave with your mother.”
