What gives you the right to speak to me like that?” I asked, feeling my temper rising.
She laughed, as if I weren’t a Lycan wanting to rip her head right off her shoulders. She had some serious audacity.

“Oh, I don’t think you have much right to reprimand me right now” she teased. “Especially because I know your secret.”
“What secret is that?” I asked her if she was willing to play her games.
Her eyes sparkled with mischief.
“The secret that you don’t want your precious Judy knowing,” she said, leaning back in her seat as she took me in. “I can keep your little secret, but it’ll cost you.”
“Don’t the Cash family already have money?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest.
“It’s not money that I’m after,” she said, a grin lighting her face. I want your hand in marriage. Marry me and I’ll keep your secret.”
“You’ve got to be kidding me,” I muttered, rolling my eyes. “I don’t even know what secret you’re talking about. I’m not agreeing to anything.”
“Do you really want to find out?” She asked, leaning forward. “Because if it got out, it’ll destroy you. Is that a chance you’re willing to take?”
“There’s nothing you can do that will destroy me, Kelsey. But I can destroy you and your entire family in seconds. Is that a chance you’re willing to take?” I threatened right back, my tone darkening as my anger started to take over.
She blinked at me, her mind whirling, though she didn’t back down.
“I can be a good Luna to you, Alpha,” she told me, putting a hand on my arm, making me feel even sicker. “I’ve been training my entire life to be a Luna. I can give you what your mistress and Judy can’t.”
“You’re too young.”
“I’m only a couple of years younger than Judy,” she shot back. “She’s the same age as your daughter, for crying out loud!” “You have no right to speak to me like this!” I bark, my anger going overboard. “Test me again and you’ll face banishment.”
She let out a bark of laughter as she stood to her feet.
“Banish me all you want, I’ll just join Alpha Levi just like my brother did,” she said, folding her arms across her chest. “I’m not someone you want to cross either. Give me what I want, and I won’t destroy your reputation.”
I stood up, my form towering over hers, making her look so much smaller.
“I don’t like being threatened,” I said in a low and threatening tone; my aura started to darken and those in the waiting room, who were trying to keep their heads down, shivered.
“Marry me,” she said again, her stubbornness intact.
“Never.”
She pressed her lips together and glanced down at her phone, which she’s been clutching for some time now.
“Then you leave me no choice,” she said as she typed something on her phone.
A second later, she looked back up at me and grinned.
“Don’t say I didn’t warn you.” With those words left in the air, she turned and walked out of the hospital, making me stare after
her.

Soon, my phone was buzzing, and when I glanced at the screen, I saw Taylor’s name.
“This better be important,” I said into the phone.
“Where the hell are you?”
“The hospital, why?” I asked him, my brows furrowed.
“So, the video was accurate then,” he sighed.
“What video?” I asked.

“Someone took a video of you carrying Rachel into the hospital, announcing her pregnant and that she needs medical attention ASAP,” Taylor explained. “It was sent to the media only seconds ago, and it’s already spread. Everyone is automatically assuming the baby is yours.” (2)
My fists clenched.
“I want Kelsey Cash banished and turned rogue,” I said through my teeth. “Then I want the media to take down this story before banish them as well.”
“I’ll do what I can. But you better explain to me what the fuck is going on,” Taylor said.
I didn’t bother waiting for a response, I hung up.
Soon, Dr. Pierce, or as I call her, Eliza, walked into the waiting room.
“She’s okay,” she explained. “The baby is fine as well. Rachel was a bit dehydrated and running a fever, but she’s coherent and hydrated currently. Would you like to see her?
I nodded and went into the hospital room to see Rachel. Between making sure Rachel was okay, and getting this news article pulled, my mind was a distant mess. I barely even realized the time until Irene started to call me.
I frowned as I saw her name appearing; it was starting to become late in the evening, and I was exhausted.
“Yes?“.
“Where the hell are you, Dad?” She asked, her tone sounding somber as she held back a sob.
“What?” I asked, feeling exhausted.
“The ceremony,” she all but shouted. “Judy’s graduation. We literally talked a few hours ago, don’t tell me you forgot?!
I was stunned and silent. I glanced at the time… it was almost 10 pm.
“Holy fuck,” I said out loud without meaning to.
I missed Judy’s graduation. 12
