Chapter 80
I quickly hid the necklace immediately I heard her voice. I spun around quickly to look at her and I feigned a smile.
“Memories. I just had a nostalgic feeling when I passed this room, so I decided to take a look at this room. I have a lot of memories related to this room.”
She returned my fake smile with one. “I hope they were mostly good memories
I kept my fake smile. “We both know I have no good memories here. But, it’s all good now. I just wish we were a good family back in the day”
“Me too,” She replied. “By now, I should be enjoying the benefits of being the Luna’s mother. But since I chose to be cruel to you. I can’t enjoy those benefits. I hope you forgive ine soon.”
I frowned. If she had not killed my mother, my mother would have been the one enjoying the benefits.
“I am never forgiving you.” I wanted to say these words to her, but it will only ruin everything, so I just kept them to myself.
“We should go now,” She said,
but I shook my head.
“You can go. I just want to stay here.”
She cocked an eyebrow. “If you want to stay in a place, it should be your room. It’s quite strange that you want to stay in a room that my mate and I use. If I want to say it without sugar-coating things, it is quite fishy. Why did you really come here with the Alpha
My father walked in at that moment. “What is going on here?”
“She wants to stay in the room and I don’t understand why?” My step mother replied and I glared at her. She was definitely hiding something. What else could be the reason of her being uncomfortable with me being in here? A while ago, she was trying to please me, but now she refused to grant this very request of mine
“Rita, just leave,” My father said I glared at him. He was choosing her over me again. She was a stranger and I, his blood, but he still chose to listen to her.
“Rita, leave or Il force you to.”
“If that’s the case. No problem. I had to keep it from them that knew what killed my mother. I had other days to access this room, because I would visiting this place from now on until I find evidence to show that my mother was poisoned and that it was my step mother’s doing.
I headed to the living room. My father and step mother walked behind me until we finally got to the living room.
“Why do you suddenly want us to become one big family? My father asked as soon as we got to the living room and took our seats. “I remembered the one time I came to visit you. I was lisgraced and sent away”
“That was because you were requesting for your daughter after you mistreated her at home, Alpha Leo said. “You’ve been a horrible father from what I have heard. Now that your daughter is here, why is it difficult for you to ask for forgiveness?”
The man I call father looked away. “She deserved it. Nobody mistreated her. She was just cautioned whenever she made a mistake.
I saw Leo clench his fists. His nails were slowly elongating and I quickly held him before he did something drastic. I wanted to keep on visiting this place until I had access to that box and if I wanted that, I had to keep things how the way they were now. We had to pretend
I faked a laugh. “Goodness gracious! That was all in the past. We shouldn’t dwell in the past too much. Things turned out to

work out well for me. I am now Luna. If there is to be any mistreatment, the reverse will be the
It was my father’s turn to fake a smile. “I know, right? That’s the reason I see you as a threat now.”
I laughed. I knew his words held a deeper meaning, but I just laughed so he will think I did not take the words serious. I looked at my mate. Leo was glaring hard at him. If we remained here a little too longer, my plans will be screwed
up.
So, I stood up on my feet. “Thank you for having us. We will take our leave now, I announced and I dragged Leo along with me as I left the house,
“Was that what you had to bear the whole time you were there?” Leo asked as he drove. I could sense sadness in his voice.
I nodded. “Yes. I told you they have me too much. If they get the chance to, they will kill me.”
“That’s just too sad.” Leo pointed out and I nodded in agreement
“I know what can cheer you up.” He said with a touch of smile on his face.
“What?”
“A double date. He replied.
I was lost.”A double what? Which couple are we having a double date with?”
The Beta couple
Beta Darius and my friend?”
He nodded and I beamed.
“It’s good to know that they’ve settled their differences.”
“What differences?” It was Alpha Leo’s time to look lost, but I said nothing in response to his question.
We finally reached the location of the double date. When we got there, Beta Darius and Janice were already there.
“We’re sorry for keeping the both of you waiting?” Leo said when we joined them at the table.
“No problem,” Darius replied while Janice and 1 gave each other a hug.
A pregnant she-wolf passed our table and my gaze was fixed on her until she left the restaurant. When I turned back to the table, I notice that everyone was looking at me.
“I know what you’re thinking, but don’t think of such again.” Leo draped his hand on my shoulder. “You’ll carry our pup. If you want twelve, you would get twelve.”
I smiled, blushing hard.
“Yes,” Darius agreed, grinning. “And, I’d name at least two of those pups”
“Won’t you like to name yours too?” Janice asked. I could hear the sarcasm in her voice. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. I thought they had settled their differences.
“Oh, yes, Darius. How many pups would you want Janice to give your
Darius threw his face away. “I don’t want pups.
Janice hit the table and stood to her feet. “You know what, I’m done with this. It’s over between us.

Janice walked away and I turned to Darius. ‘If you don’t want to loss her, you should go after her now.”
