My eyes blur, and now I gawp at him. “What? How do you know my mother?”

For the first time since I’ve met him, he finally has the gall to look sheepish. I growl and stomp closer, waves splashing in my wake.

“Well, speak? How do you know her?”

Finally, he lifts his head, grinning tightly. “I never told you what pack I was banished from, hey?”

The sand gives way beneath me, and now I stagger on my feet, almost tripping over a clump of seaweed. “You... came from the Northern Pack?”

“Yes. And your mother was an old... friend...”

Friend? My heart pounds, and now I look at him with brand new eyes. Oh, God. Oh dear God, no...

This can’t be happening.

I run, run as far away as I can. I can’t deal with this bullshit right now. Tears are streaming down my cheeks as the salty air burns my eyes, yet I don’t stop.

I keep running.

“Ylfa!” Butch shouts behind me, but I’m already halfway down the beach.

Shit. I guess I finally met the man who abandoned my mother...

Butch is my dad.
