Sophia’s POV
.
“For a while, umm… yes!!” he replied reluctantly. “But you can tell me what you want to eat. I will ask Omega to prepare the same thing.”
“Can I at least get access to a kitchen? Caro eats multiple times, so I can get her food whenever she wants. Because she is not that small, who will just depend on mother’s milk.”
“I will have to talk about it with Brandon.”

Once he left, I locked the door and fed dinner to Caroline for at least forty time minutes because she was turning her head here and there. Along with that, she had now learned a new thing recently; she kept trying to rock back and forth on hands and knees. If I was not wrong, she was learning to crawl.
I smiled at that thought.
Once she slept, I received Oliver’s call at night. He had a habit of checking on me every night.
“Oscar had called me.”
“No, hi, no hello?” I asked, trying to act normal.
“It’s important, Sophia. He called to inform us that John is no more.” Oscar informed me something which I already knew. “He told me to stay alert. And also asked me to check on you though we know that Brandon will keep you safe.”
I rolled my eyes, hearing those words.
“Even dad is not going to attend his funeral. Oscar and Owen will handle everything.”
“Is it your turn now?” I asked, even though a part of me knew that whatever I was thinking was right. “Because after John, it’s you. As the killer is not going to touch our half brothers.”
“Yes, it’s my turn. But don’t worry about me; nothing is going to happen to me.”, He assured me confidently.
“Don’t be overconfident, Oli. You never know the strength of our enemies. Dad is not even able to guess who our enemies are.”
“Don’t stress yourself too much, sweetheart. I’m not underestimating them, but whatever, I assure you that I’m not bluffing. I will tell you the reason behind it someday when we will meet face to face. As for now, just stay inside the house, and yes, I can’t come to your place on the weekend.”
“No problem. We can meet later. By the way, Oli, do you know what that werewolf is targeting us like that? It seems like these things are beyond enmity.”
He sighed before replying, “To be honest, I don’t know a thing. I’m not into all this for long. The last time I was into this thing was when I was almost killed by the cruel and mad Alpha of Blood Moon Pack. That incident scared mom so much that we left everything behind and started a new life. But I remembered mom mentioning that dad took revenge on that Blood Moon pack by wiping them before leaving all the pack.”
“So, you were not involved in it?”
“No. I was in the hospital at that time, fighting for my life.”
“And what about our half brothers?”
“Though they wanted to take revenge too. But they never supported dad or helped our dad in killing the whole pack members. They agreed that what that Alpha did was wrong, and he was not a great leader, to be honest, but they were against killing the innocent werewolves who had nothing to do with the crime that their leader too.”, Oliver said.
“So what our dad did was wrong as per you?”
“At that age, I felt dad did great work and showed that no one could love me for that him, but now… now I realized that punishing the innocent child for the crime of his dad is wrong.”, he said, going off-topic.
“Excuse me?”
“Oh, sorry!! I started talking about Steve, Rebecca’s son. His father had raped Rebecca multiple times, and that incident had left a lot of scars on her heart, but that didn’t stop Rebecca from loving her son because what his father did had nothing to do with him; he was all innocent here.” he explained. “So, now I feel that what our dad and brothers were wrong. And even if we both are innocent here, we will have to suffer.”, he added.
“So, you hold no anger for our enemy?”
“I wasn’t earlier until they killed our mother. How could they? Our mom had to do nothing with this matter at all. I so much wanted to get involved in this, but our brothers assured me that they could handle the case on their own. I don’t have to change my profession and do anything that I don’t like just to punish them. But I keep a regular update from our brothers on this case.”
“So, did they find anything? It’s approx a month now.”
“Yeah. Owen found something fishy. No one has been able to point out the exact truth till now. And Oscar ordered that he didn’t mind taking time to find the real culprit even though everything incident is pointing toward our one enemy because, as per him, it is better to take time and do the right thing rather than make any wrong decision hurry.”, He replied. “I didn’t tell you about it because mom’s death is still a mystery to me yet. I will tell you everything if they confirm anything.”
“I will be waiting for dad. Now that the previous conversation has been raised, do you have any idea why our half brothers didn’t like our dad?”
“To be honest, even I don’t know the reason behind it. One of the reasons was the difference in their way of thinking. Except this, I don’t know anything else.”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Oh, okay!”
