“Who was the Rogue King after?” I asked, making my dad and my uncle look at me.

“Your mom,” my uncle said.

I froze. Lex growled.

What? Why?

CHAPTER FOUR – Our Past (Part Three)

Alexander’s POV

I couldn’t help but glare at my dad.

I loved him so fucking much, but I was so angry at him.

He rejected my mom. He didn’t believe her. She almost died because he didn’t believe her.

I wanted to punch him, and I felt bad about it. He was my dad. I would never hurt him.

But Goddess, I was so fucking pissed off.

“Why was he after our mom?” Fia asked quietly, her voice laced with sadness.

I squeezed her hand.

Are you okay?I mind-linked her.

I don’t know what to think.She said.I am sad and angry. I want to hug dad, but I am angry at him. I am so confused.

I know, Fia.I sighed.Me too.

“He heard about the legend of the White Wolf,” my dad answered. “He was working with some witches and they told him that he could take the White Wolf as his mate. They told him that she would make him powerful. He thought that he would be able to have children with her, and take over all the packs.”

I raised my eyebrows. Was he fucking insane?

“The witches who were working for him misinterpreted the legend,” my mom sighed. “As you already know, the legend was written in an ancient language and they translated it wrong. They thought that anyone could become my second mate.”

“We didn’t know anything about the legend at the time,” Uncle Andrew said. “We managed to capture some rogues that were working for the Rogue King and they told us bits and pieces that they’ve heard from the Rogue King.”

“We didn’t even know that I had magic,” my mom continued, making me look at her. “The Rogue Kind just thought that I would be a better Luna, I guess. He thought that I would be more powerful and charismatic. That’s about all that we knew about it.”

“And what happened to him?” I asked, feeling my heart race.

Did he hurt my mom? Was he alive? If he was, I would kill him with my own bare hands.

“He came to our border with a witch,” my dad sighed. “She used her magic to incapacitate us. The Rogue King threatened to kill us if your mom didn’t go with him.”

A growl escaped me.

He threatened to kill my dad?! He threatened to kill my family and my pack?!

Oh, I would fucking kill him!

“Oh, Goddess,” Fia cried out quietly.

I placed my arm over her shoulders.

“What did he do to you, mom?” I asked quietly.
