Chapter 9-
"Wheres dad?" Ryder asked. I looked at my mom and she stared back at me. She let out a long sigh before dabbing her eyes with the pink handkerchief she had in her hand. Ryder looked at me and back to our mother. "Well where is he?" My mom opened her mouth but shut it again. Shaking her head not knowing what to do. Who would? Her son was taking for 3 years, her husband died and her son has no idea. Not a very happy moment if you ask me.
"Ryder why don't you sit down." My mom asked in a small voice. Ryder looked outraged. Shaking his head he stared down at her.
"Ryder. Just sit down." Her usually kind voice gone. This was extremely hard for her. Walking up to Ryder I pulled his hand towards the couch and we both sat.
"What's going on? Why cant you just tell me where he is?" His voice cracking at the end. Moms smile was sad and hurt. Ryder looked at her then to me. Tears formed in my eyes and he asked the question that meant a lot. "Is he dead?"
I broke down. Suddenly sobbing onto Ryder's shoulder. Mom just nodded her head at Ryder before staring blankly at the wall. The cushion next to me sunk down and I felt tingles running up my arm and I knew it was Damien. Letting go of Ryder I sobbed my heart out to Damien.
"What happened to him? I don't get it. He was always healthy." Ryder's sad eyes met our mothers and she took his hand in her own.
"Ryder some things I cannot tell you. For they are things that I promised your father I would never speak of. Your sister only knows because she found out the hard way. She figured it out herself. I'm so sorry Ryder but I'm going to make dinner, in that time Emma will take you to visit him if you would like." kissing his head she excused her self before walking to the kitchen. The silence was painful and my hiccups were the only thing that were heard. Damien was stroking my hair attempting to calm me.
It was true. I knew more things then I should but it wasn't my fault. I wish I didn't know and I hope Ryder doesn't find out. He has been through enough pain in the last 3 years and as family, I cant let him go through more pain. It wouldn't only break him but me too. Its my reason I hate werewolves, those monsters. Yet here I am letting one touch me. thinking this I pushed myself away from Damien confusing him.
" What's wrong?" Damien asked before moving closer to me and grabbing my hands. A sob escaped my lips as I recalled what I had seen, what I had heard that night. I pulled away from him again and stood up. Shaking my head. I looked towards Ryder who was hugging his mate and crying. He doesn't know and I don't want him too. I don't want him to be like me.
"I need to be alone." My voice was cold and distant. I looked at Damien to see him even more confused. He stood up and walked over to me. He gently grabbed my face and lifted it up. Emotions kept showing through his eyes. Hurt, sad and angry.
" Why are you being like this?" he whispered as he kept looking down at me. I shook my head from his grasp and stepped backwards while a sob escaped my lips. I put my hand over my mouth and fell to my knees as I started to feel light headed. Black spots formed in my eyes and things started to go blurry. Damien was at my side and his mouth was moving but I couldn't hear him. What was happening to me? My mom came rushing in along with my brother and the princess. They were all talking but I still couldn't hear anything and soon after that my sight went too.

" Daddy please!" I begged my father. He shook his head and laughed at my puppy dog face.
