Chapter 11
I was going crazy.
That's it!
He's not there I am just imagining him out of mourning.
My dead father is not in front of me!
"Anna." The man at the door breaths out.
I shutter at the thought of this being reality; I have to be dreaming!
"This isn't real... no, .no, your not here right now," I mutter, trying to figure this out.
"Anna I know you must be confused."
"No, I'm not because this isn't happening!" I yell.
Fear, confusion, pure terror is all I felt. My father died a year ago in an attack against our pack. He's
dead, along with the rest of my family. "Please, Anna I beg you, just let me explain." The man pleads.
I take a deep breath as I hold back the tears forming in my eyes. A sense of comfort floods through me
as Tyler pulls me into his chest; his hand draws patterns on my back calming my raging emotions.
"Please come in." Tyler invites my so called father into the house. I don't dare let go of Tyler as the
three of us sit down on the large white couches in the living room. After Tyler's rampage, Jackson and NôvelDrama.Org content.
Michael had to come over and help move everything back. We even had to buy a new coffee table.
I gently sat down next to Tyler, and I stared down at my lap not wanting to face reality.
"Anna I'm so very sorry." My father breaths out. "I know this is a lot to take in."
I let out a deep chuckle. "I'm sitting in front of my dead father; it's quite a lot."
How could he just knock on my door one day and say sorry? Sorry doesn't fix that you lied about your
death, it doesn't fix that I had to mourn on my own. A year of believing I lost everything!
"Annalee, please just let me explain everything." He begs pain filled his dark green eyes.
If Tyler weren't here, I'd most likely be the one ripping apart furniture by now.
"You're a bastard, how dare you do this to me!" I cry. "Fake your death, for your own daughter, your
own blood."
I can see the hurt in his eyes.
"Anna, I'm going to give you privacy for you to talk with your father." Tyler stood up and left the living
room, leaving me cold and alone with my alive father.
"All I want to do is tell you everything, why I faked my death, why you had to fake yours, why Richard
wants you." He explains.
All the answers? He wants to give me all the information I would kill for.
"Fine." I agree briefly.
A small smile forms on his face.
"Anna when you were a little girl you were special, you have always been special." He explains. "Back
about a hundred years ago there were creatures called Lycans-"
"I know mom would tell me stories about them, and how their power was ten times stronger than any
Alpha. But they extinct a hundred years ago." I smile at the memories of my mother and her amazing
stories. The ones of the great Lycans were her favorite.
"Many wolves believe that they can be brought back." My father's face turns serious.
"Ha, that must be a joke?" I laugh, who could be such a dreamer.
"It's not, there is a way to reproduce their species."
What, that's impossible, you can't reproduce if their all dead.
"I don't understand," I say honestly.
"Anna, there is said to be a gift that the Moon Goddess gives to the lucky daughter of an Alpha, to be
able to reproduce the Lycan species-"
"No." I whimper. "Please don't tell me-"
"Anna you're the daughter." He states abruptly.
"No no no no, please no." I whimper again. "No! No! This is bull shit!" I yell standing up from the couch.
"Anna every male werewolf wants you, they want to reproduce the Lycans as their own." My father's
face filled with hatred for these psychotic men.
"No...no" A tear rolled down my cheek.
"You are the key to their dreams, Lycans could make any pack undefeated, untouchable."
I try to block out his painful words as the infect my mind. They all want to use me. What kind of gift is
this? My dead father is alive, and I'm made to reproduce a powerful, extinct species, what else! Was I
made to be used as an object?
"Anna this is not a curse it's a gift, a gift that everyone wants." My father's face falls. "I'm so sorry Anna,
my precious little girl."
"How did you find me?"
"Frank, he reports back to me, he's known the whole time. Anna, I have to go, but it's not forever."
My Father stood up from the couch and made his way to the front door. His time with me was too short!
I have so many more questions!
"I'll be back Anna, I promise."
His last words replayed in my mind after the door closed. I want my questions answered but do I want
him to come back? He lied to me. I wiped the tears from my eyes and calmed down. I went back into
the kitchen where everyone sat silently. I knew they heard. All their eyes lay on me; they know
everything. Tyler knows everything. I couldn't bare to look at him; I've cursed him with my gift.
"I'm sorry." I apologize for running out of the room and up to my bedroom. I slam the door shut and
slide down its smooth surface.
What does Tyler think of all this? His mate has the gift to reproduce Lycans, to only ever reproduce
Lycans. I stand up and crawl into my warm bed, searching for a sense of comfort. Suddenly, the door
opens, and Tyler stood in the door frame, his face worried.
"I'm so sorry," I burst into tears.
He immediately walks over to me and joins me in my warm covers. He pulls me into his embrace as he
holds me in his arms.
"Why are you sorry?" He asks as he strokes my hair creating a soothing feeling.
"You heard what my father said."
"Yes, I did." He answers like he wasn't affected.
How can he still want me? Maybe for the perks of a strong pack, but the drama?
"I don't care if you give birth to Lycans or regular wolves, whatever it is, it will be ours." My heart swells
at his words, how did I get so lucky?
"Thank you," I whisper against his hard chest.
I laid in his arms as he played with my dark brown locks. With him I was safe, I didn't have to be scared
because I know he will protect me.
"Tyler who's Raf?"
His body suddenly stiffens at the mention of their name. "Nothing, just a made up monster to scare the
kids."
"The kids today were talking about him, and Katy started acting weird." I ponder out loud.
He takes a deep breath and shrugs it off. "She doesn't really like that kind of stuff."
"Oh."
A part of me can't help but notice the worry, the sudden scare when I mention his name around Katy
and Tyler. What are they hiding from me?
Please, just no more secrets.

I woke up alone in my bed covered in a thin layer of sweat; there was a sharp pain in my pelvic area. I
let out a small whimper at the sudden course of pain. What is happening? After waiting a couple of
minutes, the pain didn't subside. I quickly got off the bed and slowly made my way to the door holding
my pained area. I pushed the door open and tried to hold in my screams; the pain was just too much!
Tears started to form as I crawled to the stairs, come on Anna you can do this!
"Ah, goddess!" I cry out as I attempt to climb down the steps. Where is everyone?
"Someone please!" I cry out into the empty house. When I reach the bottom of the staircase I roll onto
the tile, the cool stone causing the silliest sensation of relief.
"Please," I mumble as my face pressed against the tiled floor. How could such pain be a gift?
Suddenly the front door swings open and Katy enters the house, she turns around and locks the door
before her eyes land on me.
"Oh, goddess Anna." She rushed to my limp body. She kneels beside me and attempts to lift me up.
"What happened? Did you fall down the stairs?"
I whimper out in pain as she try's to move my body.
"Anna I don't know what to do!" Katy cries out.
I turn my face to look at her. "Katy, call the doctor now." I croak.
She quickly gets up and pulls out her phone. "Yes, I need the pack doctor at the pack house now!" She
yells into the device and swiftly hangs up. "Anna, what do you need?" She asks I can tell her heart is
racing.
"I n-need Tyler."
I let out another cry as the pain doesn't seem to end. Why me, why now? I can tell Katy is mind linking
Tyler by the emotion on her face. "Don't worry he's coming." She coos in my ear while stroking my
back.
The door bursts open again moments later, and a woman is rushing into the house.
"Okay, what happened." She asks Katy seriously.
"I don't know." Katy whimpers.
The doctor turns to me as if transferring the question. "I don't know! It j-just hurts s-so bad!" I cry.
"I need you to show me where." She asks calmly.
I gently roll over and hold in my screams from the sudden movement that seems to cause more pain. I
immediately place my hand on the throbbing area and take deep breaths.
"Is there any chance you are pregnant?" The doctor asks as she pulls out a notepad and a container of
pills.
I shake my head no.
"Really?" Katy whispers in my ear.
"Katy!" I growl.
"Okay I'm going to give you so heavy duty pain killers, and we'll have to see what happens." The doctor
hands Katy two small salmon colored pills. Katy lifts my head up on her knees and pops them in my
mouth, then holds up a water bottle to my lips that the doctor gave her. I drink the cold liquid, and the
pills drain down my throat.
"Where's her mate?" The doctor asks.
"Right here!" Tyler bursts into the room and takes Katy's place.
The doctor seems taken back that my mate is her Alpha. "Alpha Tyler."
"What happened?" He asks the doctor but looks into my eyes. His hand strokes my hair as my head
rests on his knees.
"Katy found her at the bottom of the staircase, and we don't seem to know what happened, but she is
experiencing sharp pain in, I'm guessing her ovaries. I gave her pain killers, and we have to wait and
see if the pain subsides so we can find the cause of the pain." The doctor explains to Tyler. "We should
move her to the couch." The doctor suggests.
I frantically shake my head remembering the pain of when Katy tried to move me.
"Anna it's okay, I'll make it quick." Tyler's voice laced with pain, worry, fear.
His arms slide under my body, and he lifts me up from the cold floor. I hold in the pain as he moves me
to the couch, I don't want to worry him more. When I'm placed on the plush white cushions, the pain
decreases.
"I think the painkillers are starting to kick in." The doctor informs us.
I glance beside me; Tyler is holding my arm looking like he's about to breakdown.
"I'm okay," I mumble to him.
My eyelids grew heavy, and darkness overcame me.
