Chapter Forty–One
After training, I headed back to the pack house and up to my father’s office. I heard voices from the other side, so I leaned against the wall next to the door and settled in to wait for whoever was to be done. My ears perked up when I heard my name.
“Are you really letting Amy run our pack?” A nasally voice called out sweetly.
“Our pack?” My father’s voice was soft and confused.
“Yes, my love. Our pack. You promised to make me luna at the next full moon, remember?”
“I did?” I leaned against the door and pressed my ear against it. “Aurora, what are you doing?” My father’s angry question caught me off guard. Something was going on inside. Something that my father didn’t like but wasn’t stopping.
“Bonding with you.” I heard a ruffling, but I reared back and kicked the door open to see Aurora leaning over my father with his head tilted back. She was pouring something into his mouth, and I tackled her to the ground.
My mind linked to Ronnie and Beck. Get to my father’s office now!
I barely heard their response as I punched Aurora in her face. “Who the fuck do you think you are?” I screamed as I was wrenched off her chest. My father was breathing heavily and his eyes were half lidded, and there was a faint pink tinge to his usual blue eyes.
“You dare to attack my luna?” He screamed in my face as he panted.
Aurora, face swollen and bleeding, slowly got to her feet and smirked at me. I watched as her face slowly healed the damage I caused her, but my father was snarling in my face like he didn’t recognize me. “I told you he would
be mine.”
My father slammed me against the wall again and wrapped his hands around my throat as I fought back. I kicked him in the stomach, but I wasn’t trying to hurt him while he was trying to kill me. “Dad.”
“Shut your filthy mouth. I’m not your father. I will only be with my mate, and that’s Aurora.” I tried to rear back, but his hands tightened on my throat. I caught a shine on the back of his hand out of the corner of my eye, but when I focused on the spot, there was nothing.
“What the fuck is going on?” Beck and Ronnie ran into the office.
“Tell them.” Aurora called out.
‘Aurora is my mate and will be luna.” My father snarled as he choked me. Both men reared back at his words. I punched my father in his face and heard his nose snap. His grip loosened on me enough that I could speak. ” Aurora. Grab Aurora. Now.” my alpha commanded the two, and they grabbed her. “Get her out of here.” “Don’t touch me. Baby!” she screamed as Beck wrapped his hand in her hair and pulled her toward the door. “Don’t fucking touch her.” My father screamed his alpha command, freezing Beck mid step. He released her and turned to look at me as my father gripped my throat harder, cutting off my airway again. “You dare to command my wolves to attack their luna? I’ll kill you!” He screamed in my face and for the first time I was terrified of my
dad
“Alpha Stop, that’s Amy, your daughter.” Ronnie tried to come to my ald. He wrapped his hands around my dad’s hands and pulled.
“Stand down.” The alpha command had Ronnie freezing. His panic was evident on his face.

“Please don’t make me watch you kill your own daughter. She’s like my pup.”
“She isn’t mine!” He whirled to face Ronnie, dropping me to the ground. “Aurora told me the truth. She is a fake. Aurora is my true mate, not Ainsley.”
I coughed on the ground and shook myself. I cleared my throat and pulled Nix to the surface. “Everyone freeze.” Everyone in the room stopped. Including my father. I heaved myself up from the floor. “Beck. Take Aurora down to the cells. Now. Ronnie, make sure she has someone of higher rank watching her cells, but don’t allow her to touch anyone.”
“Yes, Amy.” Beck grabbed her and pulled her out of the room again.
“Don’t.” My father called after to him. But I wrapped my arm around his neck and pulled him back to stop him.
“Go!” Beck pulled a screaming Aurora from the room and I turned to face Ronnie. “Close the door.” I wrestled my father to the ground and he fought me. He punched me in the face as I did my best to subdue him. “Loki!” I screamed for my father’s wolf and I watched as he fought for control.
