Chapter 99
Reyna Cruz:
“But-,” as my mother attempted to have a word with me, I silenced her by showing my hand.
“I don’t want to talk about the past anymore.” I said firmly. I knew I was hurting them with my words, but why now? Were they only back in my life because I was once again the Luna Queen?
It deeply affected me in the past, so I didn’t want to get affected again by talking to thern.
As I began to drift away from them. I felt a little tug on my dress and lowered my head to see my son staring at me with his beautiful big eyes.
“Who are these people?” he asked, pointing at my parents, who shared a glance and then smiled at Turner.
“Can you guess?” My mother stepped closer, but when I pulled Turner away from her, her smile faded, and she covered her mouth sadly.
“Mom! It’s fine.” Turner gently patted the back of my hand and then stepped forward.
“From the looks of it, I could tell you are the ones who brought my mother into this world, his confidence and cuteness were something nobody could resist.
My mother’s eyes started to shine with tears while my father turned his face away in guilt. I’m sure they had realized that this was the young boy they never wanted to accept when I was pregnant. They thought this kid was a bastard child.
The fact that others’ opinions mattered so much to them when they could have left with me to take care of me and even start anew in the rogue community, I know I was asking for a lot. But maybe that’s what I would have done. That’s what I did.” In order to ensure my son doesn’t feel alienated with Tara, even when I knew he would be in good care with his father. I canceled my wedding and married Hunter.
I expected my parents to do at least as much as to ask me lovingly how I was. They just shut me down entirely.
“Hey! We did.” My mother hunched down, tears streaming down her eyes.
“Then what did you two do to hurt my mother so much that she doesn’t even want to see your faces? You see, my mother is very kind. She forgives everyone, literally everyone. Then what did you do that messed up?” The fact that it was a literal child asking adults that question was even astonishing. Turner was very mature for his age.
“We abandoned her, my father faced my son and didn’t lie, “we were greedy and scared of losing a roof over our heads so we chose to lose our daughter,” he said, and a big tear rolled down his eye.
“But we did look for her after that,” my mom suddenly added, but someone told us that she had left to be a part of some other pack after marrying some omega.”
I frowned as I watched my mother say something that made no sense.
“Huh?” I raised my brow at my mother.
“I swear. We even left this pack and tried to look for you in the pack mentioned. We requested Hunter to let us be a part of that pack. He, surprisingly, let us go. But when we went there, we found out that you were not there. After that, we were not allowed to request a full return. We still live there, but it was only yesterday that we received news that Alpha King Hunter had asked everyone to come to the event and celebrate his wedding with his mate, Reyna Cruz, my mother sniffed after she was done explaining.
“But who told you I got married and left?” I asked, and my mother shrugged.

“We were doing the research secretly. We were in contact with some rogues. Many of them scammed us, took our money, and lett. Some even claimed you were living with them, so we started sending money to them to take care of you until we got tired of waiting and asked them to let us see you. That’s when they too ghosted us,” my mother was shaking from what they had been through.
“We had only taken a few weeks to miss you and regret our choices. But we were scared of the rogues. So we began to find you first before leaving the pack. And then one rogue approached us himself and offered us money instead. He told us that you were married to some omega and living in a pack in the mid-west. We traveled all the way there to find out it w lie. But we just didn’t know why that person gave us money to send us away,” dad explained in a tiring tone.

“Mommy.” Turner raised his head again, and I looked down, giving him a little nod, I was shocked at the trouble my parents had gone through.
It was true that it wasn’t easy to find someone in the rogue community. There were no official records, and everyone tended to change their names to break the association with their past life.
“They have really redeemed themselves and even suffered. They lost their savings, years of their lives, and their daughter too. I think you should think about forgiving them.” Turner made my mom tear up even more.
“Mom I approached her and held her hands, “I didn’t know that you thought about me. All these years, I was so hurt that you two abandoned me. Little did I know, you were dying to see a glimpse of me,”
“Does that mean you’re forgiving us?” Dad smiled.
“There is nothing to forgive. This is a reunion,” I gave them a side and then wrapped my arms around them for a group. hug when I heard little Turner clear his throat.
“What about me as he pouted, my mother instantly carried him and hugged him tightly,
“We want to spend as much time with him as possible before we are sent back to the mid-west,” my father said, but I shook my head at him
“You don’t need to go. I will ask Hunter to sign your papers and bring you back.” I was confident now that Hunter would not deny my request. After what happened and how openly he had been talking about his feelings towards me, I felt like he wouldn’t hurt me by stealing my parents from me twice,
Well, who knows. He did marry us by force, Nera mumbled. She had been crying after seeing our parents again.
“Ugh!”That makes me wonder how he is. He is all alone while we were enjoying a party. I knew that had been bothering her.
“Turner! Why don’t you show them around while I take care of some stuff,” I gently patted Turner’s back, and he gave me a nod, dragging my parents away to make them feel at home. At the same time, I had planned to go check on Turner when my phone started ringing.
“Samuel!” I sighed at the name popping up on the screen. Every time I thought about him, I felt guilty for how I left our wedding.
“Samuel! Are you okay?” I attended the call and ran to the side, making sure nobody hears me talk to him.
“Took you some time to ask me that. In fact, I had to call you myself,” he scoffed from the other side, making me bite my lower lip awkwardly.
“I have been in a lot of mess. The responsibilities piled up–” as continued, he intervened.
“I know there is a party at the mansion tonight,” I don’t know how he got to know everything, but the thing that worried me was that Hunter and him fought and left each other wounded.
“There is. Hunter is sick! I am sure you know,” I mumbled.
