The Son of Red Fang by Diana Sockriter novel Chapter 166

Chapter 166

“For wanting to touch your daughter. For yelling at you.”

I reply trying to keep it simple so I didn’t have to explain too much about my past. How I’ve been abused at the three previous packs I’ve visited, their cruelty just wasn’t quite as severe.

“You haven’t done anything wrong, Cole. I hesitated to take her because you said we weren’t to intervene. Have you changed your mind about trying to help her?”

“No sir. I won’t abandon a little one.”

My voice is back to the meek and submissive one I’ve been throughly trained to use. It’s a rarity for me to raise my voice or use my aura to express my alpha dominance.

“Then I guess I’m a little confused on what intervening is in this situation.”

I feel Dr. Pierce slowly release my wrist. Her grip was strong yet gentle and I had nearly forgotten she was even holding it.

“The rumors are in your pack.”

I sigh as I turn to look at him again.

“I told you that we knew, Luna Lilly and I.”

“No alpha, it’s in your pack. Beyond you and luna. Madilyn laid with me yesterday and it was my fear towards her that upset her. Tonight, it’s me she’s

afraid of.”

“So what happens now?”

“We keep trying until one of you gives in. She will either settle down and let me use heat and pressure to relax the muscles that are cramping or you and luna will give up on the process and find another way to relieve her pain. There is no force involved in this. It is imperative that you do not command her to accept this.”

“I will follow your lead, no more hesitation. You tell me what you need from me. But, no more assumptions on if you’re in trouble with me. I know you’re being mistreated, I will not pretend that you aren’t. While there are a lot of things that I will change in how I work with you, one thing will not change. I have never hidden my displeasure from anyone. I may approach you more cautiously when it comes to discipline but you will never have to guess if you’ve done something wrong. You will know when I disapprove of a behavior and if penalties will be given. No more attempts at self punishment.”

“Yes sir.”

“Now, what’s next?”

“Now that she’s calm, try to lay her down again.”

Luna has come back to her seat and Madilyn has quieted in alpha’s arms but I know this time is going to be harder than the first. I take several deep breaths as I try to calm my own nerves.

“Are you ready to try again?”

Alpha asks quietly. Madilyn’s grip tightens around her father’s neck as he steps towards the bed again. I give him a silent as he lowers her to the bed. She starts screaming as soon as she touches me.

“No!” She shrieks. “Don’t leave me with him! Daddy! Don’t leave me with the perv! He doesn’t protect them. His touch hurts little girls! He marks them! Loves them in bad ways! No, no!”

Without me saying anything, alpha picks her up again. I can feel my hands shaking, squeezing my eyes shut trying in vain to will the pain of such horrid falsehoods out of my mind. I go through this with every new pup that comes my way. Why is this so much harder to stomach? But I already know the answer as the warm wetness of my tears start down my face. She’s four. The youngest I’ve ever tried to work with and yet someone has convinced her that I’m dangerous.

Chapter 166

“Madilyn, I need you to calm down. We need to talk sweetheart. Those are some very hurtful and dangerous things to say about Alpha Cale

I cringe as I hear alpha use my title. I’m not an alpha. I was convinced of that a long time ago.
