Chapter 0197
“Son, I know that you have feelings for Lily, but James is her mate. The Moon Goddess intended for the
two of them to be together.”
“Lily does not want James, Father. He hurt her.”
“He has changed, Son. I was skeptical at first too, but he has. And the two of them deserve an
opportunity to see if they can work things out. If they can, and if they mark each other, Lily will be a whole.
lot safer than she is now.”
My father’s words were surprisingly soft, and he was looking at me with pity. The last time he looked at me this way was when he apologized for how he handled things when I messed up with Evelyn.
I was not sure what to do with this version of my father; I almost preferred the a&&hole bully version he
was 99.9% of the time.
I suddenly grabbed the corner of my desk and tossed it upside down in anger.
“JAMES DOES NOT DESERVE HER!” I screamed.
My father did not say anything.
“She is not safe with him, Father,” I growled in a calmer but still very angry tone. “If he loved her, he would
think about her safety first. Not run his mouth to his cousin about the enemies being out to get her.”
“Brady, I do not believe that James had anything to do with that leak. In fact, I have a plan to ferret out
the culprit. But I need your blessing before I do it.”
There it was again. That sympathetic tone. And when had my father ever asked my blessing to do
anything? Ever?
I kicked the desk. “You know what, Father? F&&k you. Do whatever you want. You have my blessing. In
fact, you can have the pack too.”
I headed towards the door..
“Where are you going, Son?”
“Where I should have gone three days ago. To get Lily, and to stop her from making the biggest mistake
of her life.”
My father sighed. “If you go, you may get yourself hurt, Son.”
I spun around and looked at my father in shock. “Did you hit your head?”
My father said nothing.
“You sat in the guest chair. You have tolerated me yelling at and questioning you. I even cursed at you. You asked for my blessing to execute some st upid plan. And now you are going to let me go to Lily?”
“I do not want you to go. I am worried about Lily. But I am also worried about you, Son.”
“Where was this worry three hours ago when we were fighting about Evelyn?”
“The chocolate results were not back yet.”
“So?”
“So I did not know for sure just how serious things were. Once I found out what was in the chocolate, I
knew that you would want to go to Ravenswood.”
“And?”
“And believe it or not, Son, I love you. You are my flesh and blood. I do not want you to get hurt. I know how destroyed you were after everything happened with Evelyn. I do not want to see that happen to you. again with Lily. But if you need to go and see for yourself that she is better off with her mate, I will not.
stop you.”
“I LOVE LILY!”
My father frowned. “Exactly. But she is not your mate.”
I punched a hole in the wall. “Is it that you do not think I am good enough for her? That you think that a&&
hole James is better?”
“No. I think that James is her mate, and I believe in the will of the Moon Goddess. You will make a fine
mate one day to another she-wolf. But you need to wait for your second chance.” [
“Not everyone gets a second chance mate.”
“But you will.”
“How can you be sure?”
“Father’s intuition. And the fact that you are a special wolf too. Your destiny depends on you finding and marking another mate.”
“It has been several years, Father. If I have not met my second chance mate yet, I am unlikely to find one.”
“Or you just have not been ready.”.
“I want Lily. I love Lily.”
“She is not yours.”
I glared at my father. “We will see about that.”
With that, I left. It was time to go to Ravenswood and get Lily back.
