“Hey,” I said, smiling at Yasmin, who was laying on her bed.
She didn’t say a word for a moment, but then she forced herself to sit up and
look at me. Her eyes, which held more pain th
she could describe, tried to avoid mine as she looked anywhere but into my
eyes.
“Hi,” she said, finally responding as I approached the chair beside her bed.
She watched as I sat there, and I smiled, shaking my head in question.
“I thought that you would be coming to dinner? You know, the pack doctor said
that you would need to eat to fully recover.” I said, and she looked away from
“I didn’t feel like eating. And it is not like I want to be recovering quickly. I am
tired and I just want to go to bed. I want to rest for a while, and I really don’t
want to be dealing with
ything more than the confiict that I was
forced to deal with and the…”
“You went out without your father’s notice.” I said, and she looked away from
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtme.
“You’re here to scoldtoo?” She asked, and I shook my head.
“The last thing that I am going to do is scold you, Yasmin. I know what it is to be
scared and in pain, but what you did could have gotten you killed. And you
know..

“I didn’t think that this would lead to that. I just wanted to go out and get some
air. I was upset and in pain and 1. didn’t want to keep going through that pain
alone. I didn’t want to keep being treated like a kid. I am not one.” She said, and
I nodded.
“No one ever said that you are.”
“He did.” She said, looking away fromas tears fell from her eyes. For a
moment, I had to admit, I was curious about who she was talking about. But it
didn’t takelong to realize that it was Leonardo. It was the reason why the
two of them argued, it seemed. The man saw her as nothing more than a child.
“That is all he will ever seeas anyway.”

“He?” I asked, and she looked away from me.

“It doesn’t matter.” She said, and I took a deep breath. I knew not to press on
the little girl. She was already upset as it was, adding salt on the wound wasn’t
going to doany good. And it wasn’t going to have her open up to
fi. me.
“I know that you are upset and that things have been hard on you; but you need
to understand that when you are treated with love and protection, it doesn’t
make you any less. If anything, it only means that you are loved, even more than
you might think that you are.” I said, putting a hand on hers. “Sometimes being
the pack’s teenager is the best thing that can happen. You are an adult,
somehow, when you’re eighteen, but you are also being protected.”
“When can I be free of this ‘protection‘? Because it makes others thin ofas a
kid, and I am not.” She said, and
I smiled.
“Sometimes I wish that I was treated as a kid. It would make the responsibilities
that I have a lot less hectic. But the older you grow, the more you realize that
this protectiveness is an act of love. You are your father’s only daughter, the
light of his day, and the one reminder of your mother.” I said, reminding her of
the fact that though the man stood strong, he also lost someone dear to him:
“Don’t break him with that. He might not be showing it, but it would hurt him
dearly and you don’t want to find your father breaking inside because you are
refusing to understand how much he and the whole pack value you.”
“What if the man that I love doesn’t loveback?” She asked, and I smiled.
“Sometimes love has different meanings and aspects. He might not love you the
way that you love him, but it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t love you. While I
understand that being in love is hard when it is not mutual, it* doesn’t mean
the end.” I said, my voice softening as I spoke to her. “It is only the beginning,
and you are young and you have the right to find yourself falling in love over
and over again. Eventually, you are going to love someone so deeply that you
are going to forget all the heartbreaks that you’ve been through.”
“It is what makes love worth it.” I said, smiling softly at her.
“Does it count for both you and the Alpha?” She asked, makingsmile. I put
my hand on her cheek, and she leaned in toward my touch.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You are one nosey girl, has anyone ever told you that?” I asked, and she
laughed. “With Enzo things are different, but I know one thing, whatever
happens, I don’t regret anything that happened between us.”
“Despite the two of you being divorced and the pain?” She asked, and I nodded.

“That pain madewho I am today. It madestronger for myself and my
son. It madeknow my value, my
worth, and capability. Yes, it brokeinto pieces, but these pieces healed with
time.” I said, looking away from
her for a moment. “And I know now that the two of us have matured. We have
our choices, and we are going with
our lives based on that.”
“Do you think that you can get back together? You know, if…”
“That is not something that I will answer,” I said, and she smiled. I got up from
the chair and kissed her forehead as a sister would to hers. “Get srest
tonight, but I expect to see you at the dining table tomorrow morning
deal…?”
