Traversing to Alpha Dad Stuffing Mom into the Suitcase

I crawled up, gasping, "Mom... she's already gone... that awful she-wolf did it..."

Dad froze for a second, then hit me even harder, cursing. "Still lying? Still lying? This is what Luna Natalie taught you, huh? Ignoring everything I say!"

"We're one day away from me coming back to the family, and you can't even wait that long? All Vanessa wanted was to have my pup, and you're framing her for murder? You're heartless!"

I collapsed, beaten to the floor. Dad frowned and tossed the stick aside.

"Worthless! Kneel right there! You don't get up until your vicious mom admits she's wrong!"

I shook my head, pointing to the shrine on the table. "But Mom's already gone, Uncle! Why won't you believe me?"

"That little wooden box on the table-it's got Mom inside!"

Before I could finish, that awful she-wolf clutched her belly and stumbled, falling to the floor. Her hand landed on some broken glass, cutting a small gash.

She winced, looking pitiful.

"Alpha Lucian... my stomach hurts so bad... our baby... save our baby!"

Dad scooped her up, stepping over me, and frantically called the family healer.

Not long after, he stormed back, grabbed me by the arm, and dragged me to a chair in the room.

I overheard him talking to the healer.

"My daughter's got that rare panda blood type-HR something. Take her blood. Vanessa's baby can't die!"

The healer hesitated.

"But Chloe's got a heart condition, and she's only five! Drawing her blood could kill her!"

Dad's voice was ice-cold. "Shut up. Just make sure Vanessa's baby is safe."

A needle as thick as my arm stabbed into me. The pain made my eyes water.

Dad's grip was so strong. I stopped fighting.

Mom lied to me. Dad doesn't love me at all.

She used to tell me how, when she was pregnant with me, they got in a car accident. Dad got hurt saving her. When the healers said she might not make it, Dad swore he'd do anything as long as I was born safe.

But now, he's hurting me himself.

"Chloe, shh, it's okay. It doesn't hurt..." Dad's voice was soft for once, trying to calm me.

I pressed my lips together, too weak to speak. After they took one vial of blood, I felt dizzy, sweating buckets.

Then that she-wolf screamed and passed out.

Dad grabbed another syringe and barked at the healer, "Hurry-take another vial!"

The healer's hands shook, looking at my purple lips. "If you keep this up, Chloe could die! And Natalie-she adored this pup. If she knew..."

Dad cut him off, hesitating only for a second. "If anything happens, I'll deal with Luna Natalie. Just do it! That's Chloe's little brother in there-she's gotta save him!"

After two vials, I was done for. I tried to stand but collapsed with a thud.

Dad's face flickered with panic.

He started to help me up, but then that she-wolf woke up and whimpered.

His eyes snapped away from me.

Everything went black. I thought I was dying.

If I die, will I see Mom again?
