A Girl Adopted by Wolves
Chapter 32- Asher

I parked my bike outside my house. I took her hand in mine and wewent inside the house. Dad was sitting in the living room. He gave us awarm smile and called for mom. Amara pinched my bicep and I turnedmy head to look at her. I gave her a goofy smile but inside I am hopingshe doesn't get offended by what is going to happen next. She lookedat me with “what the hell is going on over here’ look.

"My parents wanted to meet you so I brought you here to meet them.”She replied with a glare. I shifted back a little from her. This girl can bescary if she wants to. "Please don't kill me." I whispered scared aboutthe events that are going to unfold now.

"A prior warning would have been nice.” She hissed.

I shrugged and turned towards my parents. I am having a really badfeeling about this.

"Why are you two standing there? Come on in. Have a seat.” Mom saidgiving us a warm smile.

"Finally he brought you here. We were so excited to meet you." Dadsaid to her.

"Nice to meet you too Mr. Wilson." She said nervously.

"Just call me Arthur. This is my wife Christine.” He said smiling.

She nodded at them. I squeezed her hand but she yanked it back andrested both her hands on her knees. Everything went downhill fromthere.

"Amara, you are Robert Cross's daughter right?" Dad asked. She lookedannoyed.

"No. I am Alpha Hercules's daughter.” She answered sharply. Oh no."You are from another pack?" Dad asked confused.

"No sir. I am from this pack only.” She replied smiling.

"I don't understand. I have never heard of him. I didn't even knew therewas any other alpha in the town. How can there be two alphas for thesame pack.”

"It's a long story.”

"Okay. Does your father know about Ash being your mate?" he asked."Yeah. They have met each other.” She said. I shuddered rememberingwhen I met him.

"I would really like to meet him someday.” No dad you don't.

"I would you rather not. The pack didn't take it very well.” She warned.Yeah dad listen to her.

"Oh"

"Dad can we talk about something else?" I said trying to change thetopic from her father. That is one scary wolf.

"I am really sorry for making you uncomfortable. Tell me aboutyourself." Dad said to her laughing.

"I lived in Esterden till now with my uncle, aunt and brother. I movedhere few weeks ago. I am in 11th grade and go to Greycoast high.”"What about your parents?” he asked. Stop it dad.

“I am an orphan. I lived with my uncle and aunt until I moved here toGreycoast. Papa, I mean Alpha Hercules adopted me when I was ten.Now I live with him and my older brother Ryder.” She said smiling."Isn't Robert your father?" he asked confused.

"Biologically yes" She squirmed uncomfortably, "It's quite complicated.”"Okay." He gave up.

"Let the poor girl breath Arthur. You are scaring her.”, Mom said.Thanks mom.

"I am really sorry Amara. I just wanted to get to know you better. Youare going to be part of the family soon.” He said embarrassed.

"It's okay Arthur. I can understand.” She replied uncomfortably.

Here comes the bigger issue. Help me god. She picked the glass ofjuice and took a huge gulp.

"So when are you guys getting engaged?” Mom asked out of nowhere.She choked on the juice and started coughing. I patted her back. It'sfinally started. This is going exactly the way I feared it would.

"Are you alright?” Mom asked her.

"Yeah. The juice went in the wrong way." She said clearing her throat."Okay. So when are you two getting engaged?" Mom asked her again. Iwant the ground to open up swallow me whole.

"I am not sure about that. I mean we are not even eighteen yet. Maybein few years.” She is angry. I can sense it.

"Didn't Asher tell you about the pack laws? You get engaged to yourmate the week you meet them and get married when you turneighteen.” Dad added.

"I don’t think that can be possible Arthur. I am still in school. I want togo to the college after that. I want to focus on my career first. Marriageor engagement is not on my list right now. We literally met two daysago. I don't even know him properly to think about all this. Maybe I canthink about it when I graduate but now it is impossible.” She saidseriously.

Dad didn't like it. They fought back and forth. I was really dreading thismoment. I just got back with her and my parents have to come anddestroy it all. In the end she got up and stormed out of the door. Why?I just sat there in shock. I want to go after her but that would bedisrespectful to my parents. But if I don't go, she will go further awayfrom me. I heard a car speed out. She left.

“Leo was right to order you to stay away from her.” My head snappedtowards dad when he said this. “No respect for the elders. No respectfor rules. How can we welcome such a girl to our family and pack? Weare better off without her.” Dad spat.

“How could you say something like this when you don’t even know herproperly?” I asked in disbelief. “Every single one of you keeps shuttingher away. Why? Just because she is different. Because she can stand upfor herself. This is enough. I hurt her enough because of you people.She is my mate and I love her. I am not giving her up just because shewon't bow to your stupid rules. I always followed every rule you askedme to follow. Still you were never satisfied with me. I give up onpleasing you people. I am going to look for her and apologize to herfor all the mess you created. I finally found someone who appreciatesme for who I am and I am not going to hurt her because of you. Youcan kick me out if you like.”

I stormed out of the door to replace my mate and I will replace her. I promisednot to hurt her but I did it again. I will make it right baby. I promise.
