Chapter 74
Hardin’S POV
She’s innocent.
I can feel in my bones that Reign is innocent. There’s something awfully wrong somewhere and I’m going to figure it out.
First, it’s not normal that a man will lock his daughter up in a house for the first eighteen years of her life, claiming that she is too strong. That’s just not normal.
Also, Reign keeps saying that she was attacked in the woods by a rogue and what if that rogue happened to be her sister, that means her sister was the one who attacked her.
Now, why would her sister attack her?
I think I know why.
I am Reign’s rightful mate but I had already marked Wilma. So it’s obvious that Wilma was jealous of Reign and tried to kill her so she wouldn’t interfere in our relationship, but Reign was strong enough to defend herself and kill her instead.
But then, If the rogue was really Wilma, did Reign not recognize her sister’s wolf? Did both sisters really now that they were fighting each other?
That’s a question that has been buzzing my mind for some time now and that’s why I am here, at Reign’s father’s house to get some information that will make me draw my conclusions.
“You are once more welcome Alpha Hardin, it’s such an honor to have you here in my home again”
“Thank you Mr. Logan. Once more accept my condolences for the loss of your daughter, Wilma”
“Thank you” He replies sadly. “If only I had known, I would never have let Reign out, she has caused nothing but pain and grief to me since the moment she was born”
“Mr. Logan, there’s a few things I’d like to know about how you raised Reign”
“Okay”
“How often did she see your wolf or that of her sister’s?”
“I never let her see any of our wolves. I forbade Wilma from shifting in her presence because I was afraid of what she could do to her. Her mentor, Michael, was the only person whose wolf Reign saw.” He explains and I nod my head.
I just discovered all what I needed to draw my conclusions.
“I see… So, about Wilma, she found her mate when she turned eighteen, didn’t she?”
“Yeah, but my daughter had always been the one with a rare test in everything, she didn’t like her mate so she rejected him”
“And you were cool with that?” I ask curious and he shakes uncomfortably on his chair.NôvelDrama.Org content.
“Well, it was her decision and all I could do was support her. All I ever wanted was for Wilma to be happy”
“So, what if everything was normal, if Wilma was still alive and it remained that I rejected Reign to be with her, how would you have handled the issue?”
“Well, if the Alpha has chosen his Luna, who am I to oppose him? Reign would’ve learned to accept it and move on”
“Is that so?”
“Yeah, I can’t go against the Alpha” He states and I look at him in total disbelieve.
It’s very obvious that this man has never liked Reign as a daughter and nothing can convince me that he isn’t hiding a secret. I’m not going stop until I find out what it is that he’s hiding.
“Alright then Mr. Logan, I just came to sympathize with you once for your loss, I’ll take my leave now. Take heart”
“Thank you very much Alpha Hardin”
I rise up from my seat and exit the living room.
I walk over to my car with a million thoughts running on my mind.
Mr. Logan just said Reign was only familiar with her Mentor’s wolf, that means if we assume that Wilma was the rogue that attacked her, then she didn’t know it was her sister that’s why she keeps insisting that the only wolf she killed was a rogue. She didn’t know it was her sister that had attacked her.
That is for the possibility that the wolf she killed thinking was a rogue was not actually a rogue, but her sister who has attacked her.
Now, it could still be that she killed a rogue indeed , not her sister and someone else her sister killed and framed her up. Either ways, I’m going to get the root of the matter.
Once I’m seated shot gun, I ignite my care engine and drive over to the training ground. I need the tell Miguel what I just found out and also, I have to check on Melissa and Kylie. I have to make sure they are learning how to tolerate each other.
Enmity among siblings is not something I will turn a blind eye to. Just look at what Mr. Logan did by promoting enmity between Wilma and Reign. He even went as far as to support Wilma in snatching Reign’s mate.
Blasphemy.
I would die before any such thing happens between my siblings. They are going to learn to love each other and they will be very happy about it.
I park in the field, alight from the car and walk over to the junior training ground where I meet Miguel training Reign and her mates.
He’s a good trainer and he is very patient too. I don’t have the patience to train junior wolves. The only people I train are my soldiers. Training junior wolves is nothing but torture to me.
When Miguel sees me, he motions another trainer to take over and he walks over to me.
“You’re back!”
“Yeah. How are they doing? I mean Kylie and Melissa?”
“I paired them to do every thing together and warmed them that I’m going to get them tied together with a rope if I hear them argue even if it’s just a single time and since then, peace has resigned between them.”
“They have to love themselves, I’m not going to promote enmity among siblings”
“Exactly. So, how did the meeting with Mr. Logan go?”
“Intriguing! There is indeed something fleshy about this whole issue Miguel”
“I’m all ears”
“First, that man has never really loved Reign as a daughter. He was almost absent in her life as she grew up. Wilma was his favorite. Also, he told me Reign had never seen neither him not Wilma’s wolf, that means even if Reign killed Wilma, she didn’t know it was Wilma be because she had never seen Wilma’s wolf before”
“I knew there was something definitely off about this issue”
“Also, he was cool with fact that I had chosen Wilma over Reign, he didn’t seemed bothered at all. That man never liked Reign at all and I can’t help but wonder why”
“Me too”
“Anyway, we are going to use this info we have to uncover more truths. For now, you can get back to training while I go check on Reign.”
“See you around” He says as he jogs away and majestically walk over to my car.
There’s a secret Mr. Logan is hiding and I very know that that secret is not something that I’m going to like at all.
I just hope it’s not something that’s going to take me off guard.
Sweet moon goddess, please give me the strength to withstand the storm that’s coming ahead.
