“How do you know that name?” Mr. Gabe suddenly asked.
That was when it clicked.

The name my mother had just called him-it was the same name she had mentioned some time ago, the one who got tricked into getting pregnant for a werewolf who knew fully well she might not come out alive. The name of her friend.
Sofie.
My mother didn’t respond immediately. She just stared at him, her expression distant, almost as if she were seeing her lost friend standing right in front of her.
I guessed he must look a lot like her.
“Oh… sorry,” I quickly stepped in, trying to ease the tension. “I think my mom just mistook you for
her friend.”
At that, my mother lowered her gaze.
“You must be her child,” she finally said, her shoulders sagging slightly.
Mr. Gabe stepped closer, his eyes fixed on her.
“And I’m guessing… you knew her?” he asked carefully.
My mother lifted her head again, meeting his gaze, while I stood there, silently watching everything unfold.
Then, suddenly, she spoke again.
“I’m just glad you don’t look like that foolish man who got a human pregnant, knowing it would cost
her life.”
The shift in the air was immediate.
I saw his pupils dilate.
“Must everyone keep reminding me that I killed my mother?” he said, running a hand through his
hair in frustration.
My eyes widened.
“Remind you that you killed your mother?” my mom repeated, her voice rising slightly.

Book 2 Chapter 55
He gave a small, bitter smile.
“Yes. That I’m the child who killed his mother… and my father’s mate.”
The bitterness in his voice was unmistakable.
“Did your father tell you that?” my mother asked sharply.
“Every day,” he replied without hesitation.
That was all it took.
Anger flared in my mother’s eyes instantly.
“Is he still alive?” she demanded.
Mr. Gabe nodded. “Very much so.”
A strange smile appeared on my mother’s face.
“Can you take me to him?”
Something about that request made my stomach twist.
It didn’t feel right.
It felt… dangerous.
