I heard a twig snap and my eyes shot open. The sun wasn’t as high up as it was before and I knew I had been a sleep for a while. Another twig snapped and my eyes carefully scanned the vast amount of trees looking to see if anyone was there. Someone’s hand touched my shoulder and I quickly turned around ready to punch someone’s face if I had to. “Whoa, Zo calm down its me,” I heard Zack say and I unclenched my fist and let my body fall. I felt Zack’s strong arms wrap around my waist and he held me tightly to his chest. “Everyone has been looking for you. We were really worried Zoey.” He said holding me closer. I stared out at the beautiful lake and the tears fell down my face again. “Hey,” Zack said wiping away a falling tear. “I’m tired of this,” I whispered against Zack’s chest. “Tired of what?” Zack’s soft voice whispered to my ear. “Everything,” I whispered. It was quiet, for a while neither of us said anything. “You should forgive your dad.” I heard Zack say and I stiffened slightly, getting ready to pull away but Zack’s arms tightened around me. “He really did have a good reason for leaving.” “Oh yeah, what?” I said in an emotionless tone. “That’s something you’ll have to ask him. It’s not my place to tell you.” Zack said and he slowly unwrapped his arms from around me and took my hand leading my back out of the forest and to the house. I followed after him knowing that the sun was about to set and I had no idea how to get back to the house without him. We walked for about fifteen minutes before I could finally see the mansion in view. I slowly walked towards the doors knowing that I had to talk to him at some point but still trying my best to stall some time. With a deep breath I sighed and pushed open the doors. Let’s get this over with. I thought as I stepped into the mansion.
Chapter 8: Daddy
As soon as I stepped through the doors I was wrapped in a pair of arms. “Honey, don’t you ever scare me like that again!” She scolds hugging me tightly. I gently pull her off of me and stare at my dad who looks kind of uncomfortable. “I may have over reacted a tiny little bit and I should have given you a chance to try an explain first before I started shouting at you. Though, I don’t take back any of my words.” My dad smiled and jerked his head towards a door that I was guessing was a conference room probably. “Let’s talk,” He said and I followed him into the room.
The conference room had a looonngg mahogany table right smack in the middle of the room. And when I say long I mean like it could probably fit seventy people long. I found a chair and sat across from each other and before my dad could say anything I asked, “Why’d you leave? Right now that’s the most important thing question to me.” My dad took a deep breath and started on his story. “When I still lived with you and your mom my father was the alpha of this pack. At that point of time his role as alpha should have been given to me but my dad wasn’t ready to give it up yet. Which was perfectly fine with me. I didn’t want to be alpha I wanted live a normal life with your mother and my beautiful baby girl,” He said reaching over and softly stroking my cheek. His words sounded so sincere and I couldn’t help the tears that were starting to pool up in my eyes. He sighed loudly pulling back his hands and breaking my thoughts. “But then, when he died, I didn’t have a choice. It was leave you and be alpha or stay and have us all hunted and killed. And I’ll be damned if I let my family get killed over something that was my fault! So I left….. I faked my death and left.” One tear snaked its way down his face and I knew. I just knew that he really didn’t want to leave us. “Why would they have sent someone to kill us?” I asked him. “Your duties to the council ALWAYS come first and if you disobey then they find something to use against you. That’s just what they do.” My dad said shrugging his shoulders sadly. “Who are the council?” “They are the kind of like the leaders of all the supernatural. They make the laws and make sure you follow them and if you don’t then you get punished.” “But don’t you think that’s kind of unfair? Using peoples weaknesses against them so that they can get what they want?” He shrugged his shoulders. “That’s just how it goes baby girl.” “Well, it’s going to stop and soon.” I said authority rushing through my voice. “If you’re the one stopping it then there is no chance in hell that it won’t.” My dad said smiling at me. You could the pride in his eyes and I got from my chair and hugged him. I hugged him as hard as I could trying to make up for all the times that I couldn’t. “I missed you daddy.” I whispered still hugging him tight. “I missed you too pumpkin.” He said kissing my forehead. “And just to let you know I was always watching over you I have my reporters right outside that door. Connor! Derek! Stop spying and get the hell inside this room!!” My dad shouted towards the door. My eyes widened at the names and I watched Connors pale blonde hair come out from the door followed by Derek. They smiled nervously waiting for my reaction. I ran and I hugged them both tightly! “I missed y’all!” I said happy to see
