1 squeezed her hand gently and said, "Daria, wait for us in the car. We'll handle this." She looked hesitant, but after a moment, she nodded, her tear filled eyes casting one last glance at the house before heading back ourside I took a deep breath, steeling myself for whatever awaited us inside.
Leo followed close behind, his presence a mix of silent fury and restrained strength.
wo of us walked into the house, bracing for confrontation.
In the living room, a middle aged woman sat on the sofa.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe wasn't what I expected-no gaudy jewelry, no heavy makeup, In fact, she looked quite ordinary, almost like a modest housewife.
Seated next to her was a teenage boy, around Narik's age.
His gaze flickered up when we entered, and my heart sank.
Andrew stood up from his chair, his face brightening as though nothing was amiss.
"Ah, you're here," he said, his tone disturbingly casual. "Letintroduce you. This is your new mother, Cecily. And next to her is your brother, Derrick. I expect you both to get along well." He smiled as if we were meeting long-lost family members. "Derrick will be joining the pack and learning how to manage things. As the older brother, I trust you'll show him the ropes, Leo." I could feel Leo's tension spike beside me.
Cecily rose, her smile timid as she approached us.
"Lep," she greeted softly, holding out her hand. "I hope we can all be a family." Lo didn't move to shake her hand. His response was cold, his voice like ice.
"I won't recognize your position." he stated bluntly.
Cecily's smile faltered, her face flushing with embarrassment.
She immediately turned to Andrew, her eyes welling up with tears as she clutched his arm for comfort. Andrew wrapped his arm around her, his expression hardening as he consoled her.
"How can you speak to an elder like that, and soon she will be your new mother!" Andrew glared angrily at Leo. Immediately after that he turned his angry gaze to me, "And you-" he exclaimed, "You should bow to her, she will soon be the Mistress of Silermoon and you will apologize to her!" I laughed bitterly, the absurdity of the situation almost too much to bear.
"Mistress of Silvermoon?" I sneered, crossing my arms. "Andrew's never recognizedas Luna of this pack. Now he suddenly remembers? For the record, the only woman I've ever acknowledged as Silvermoon's matriarch is Dalia and Narik's mother." Andrew's face darkened. "That's enough-" "No, it's not," I interrupted, my voice rising. "You've looked down onever since I arrived. I wasn't born into a werewolf family, I didn't have the with Orlando as my father, and my powers pedigree you wanted, and for years, you treatedlike I was unworthy of the title of Luna. But now, growing stronger every day, you're afraid of what I could do. You're afraid I'll make Leo too powerful for you to control."

"I am the Alpha of Silvermoon now," he said, locking eyes with Andrew with "And I won't accept strangers into my pack. Cecily, Derrick-you're not welchere. Leave." Andrew's face flushed with rage. "Strangers? Cecily is your mother, and Derrick is your brother! You owe them respect!" Leo's control snapped, his voice booming through the room.
"You think I owe them respect? What have you been doing all these years, Andrew YouVied, you hid things from me, and now you expectto Icthese two with open arms?" His eyes flickered with an almost primal anger. "Get out of my house. Now." Andrew looked stunned by the outburst, but before he could respond, Leo summoned the warriors.
"Panther," he called, and within moments, the head of our pack's guards arrived, flanked by several other warriors.
"Escort them out," Leo commanded, his voice leaving no room for argument.
Panther stepped forward, his expression neutral, though I saw the faintest glimmer of satisfaction in his eyes as he directed his men toward Cecily and Derrick. Cecily burst into fresh sobs, clinging to Andrew, but Derrick stood tall, glaring at Leo andwith an intensity that sent a chill down my spine. Chapter 178 Chapter 178
