Found by the Lycan King by Natalie Winter novel Chapter 101

 

Chapter 101 

Zenovia 

I went near the phone and took it in my hand. It was from an unknown number. 

Biting my lower lip nervously, I clicked on the message. 

-Baby girl, don’t you miss me?- 

Sid. 

I had totally forgotten about him. He had said that he would contact me later, but I had been so caught up with training and my shifting that I did not even think of him for a moment. 

Even when I thought of my father and mom, his thoughts never popped up in my head. 

My initial reaction to that message was being afraid and nervous as I read through the message a few times. But then I told myself I did not have to…not anymore. 

I was not a wolfless omega that he could toy with. Not that he had any business knowing I had awakened my wolf. 

In fact, it would be perfect for me to enact my plan of exposing his mother through him. 

I thought about it for a while and typed a message. 

-Not really- 

I had barely placed the phone on the bed and turned around when another beep sound reached me. 

-Come on, I know you did. I just thought of messaging you when Alpha Drake mentioned you today. I am sorry and miss you- 

My fingers froze on the screen when I read that. Alpha Drake…my father…he mentioned me? 

He still thought of me? 

I had missed him like hell when I awakened my wolf and was dying to tell that to him. He had been my biggest motivator, along with Mom before our life went downhill. 

Did he really care about me? Was he regretting selling me to Callahan? 

Various doubts flashed through my mind. Each added more confusion to my already bewildered brain. 

I was also not sure if Sid was simply making up stories to make me talk to him. But then I had to know what was going on in the pack, in my home. 

So I typed a message and hit the send button. 

-I hope everything is well- 

I wanted to know if Luna Celeste was not simply looting from the pack treasury and allowing the other members with enough funds. 

His reply came in shortly. 

-Alpha Drake is just a little tense. The new changes in the treaty are taking away most of the rights and freedom from Alphas- 

I furrowed my eyebrows and hastily typed -I don’t understand- 

-Wait, let me call you- 

My eyes went wide. Messaging him was okay. But I was in no mood to talk to him. And what if anybody heard me talking to him? 

The phone began to ring not even a second later, but I quickly put it on silent mode and dashed to the doors and windows to ensure they were well shut. 

Then I grabbed the phone and went inside the bathroom and received the call, careful to keep my voice low. 

“Hey baby girl, how are you?” 

“What happened to dad?” I went straight to the point. 

If he was unhappy with my lack of interest in answering his earlier question, he did not show, 

“Your Callahan….he is making the policies stricter and tightening his grip over pack affairs. People are not happy with the way he is managing things.” 

My Calahan?

I ignored that too and asked, “How is it affecting Dad?” 

Sid answered, “Our pack is not that well-known. If you noticed, Alpha Drake and a few others were not even invited to the pack meetings recently. He fears he is losing credibility amongst the other alphas that Callahan favors. It will be bad for our pack if we lose out on our reputation. Nobody would want to do business with us in the long run.” 

I wondered about it. I knew little of pack affairs, but I recall that Callahan did not have a favorable impression of my dad when he first came to visit us. 

He was upset about the rogue menace already and Luna Celeste cooked up a story of my betrayal to save herself. 

Of course, they never found out who my so called boyfriend was, but I guess Celeste or my pack were never in the spotlight to warrant Callahan’s attention. 

He simply left after a short chat and never set foot in my pack territory again. There were other alphas and packs that were more important and made a name for themselves by providing him with more information and reports. 

I also faintly recalled Elijah saying he had gone to the west to get the report. Had he visited my pack too? 

I had to find out the report and see what it contained. I knew Luna Celeste had been requesting loads of funds but must have splurged it instead of putting it to good use. And my father would suffer for her mistake. 

My father got swayed by her words, but he was definitely not a scammer. His records and papers would always be clean, but 

now I was not sure. 

I was lost in thought, but Sid’s voice brought me to the present. 

not 

call 

“But I did 

you to tell you that. Are you still upset with me? I am willing to apologize again. I am sorry for everything, baby girl.” 

I did not know what to say to that. My thoughts were more occupied with my father than Sid’s lame attempts to pacify me. 

“Would you not be upset if I tried to drug you and force myself upon you?” 

asked, and surprisingly, Sid fell silent for a while. 

“I understand I wronged you, baby girl. I just was not thinking straight. And that is why I am apologizing to you over and over again. I miss you.” 

He said, but I did not have it in my heart to outright yell at him. I needed more information from him. 

“Look Sid, I am not your ‘baby girl’. I am just… your stepsister. And I hope you help Dad rebuild our pack and its image instead of fooling around.” 

Sid looked a little hurt by my words, but I felt nice to finally ask him to stop calling me ‘baby girl. It irked me to hear him say that. 

“I…I liked you, Zenovia. I still do. But if you don’t like me, that is okay. I was just missing you.” 

“You said Dad was not invited to the meetings with the Lycan King, right?” 

Sid replied, “He wasn’t.” 

I did not comment on his earlier line and even he didn’t probe me further about it. Earlier, I had been too weak to state my thoughts right away, but now, with Thunder, I could feel some of her confidence seeping into my bones. 

“Hmm, well, it only means that you have to pay more attention to the pack matters and administration. After all, you are going to be the future alpha of the pack, right?”
