Odette arrived back to her pack a couple of days later .
She carried her bags inside and was stunned immediately seeing all their family sitting in the living area of their house. She sat her bags down looking confused seeing Clarie, Brent , and their parents in one setting .
"Hi?" She spoke first confused a chuckle left her lips .
Claire eyed her sister,"Wheres Jonah ?" She pressed
Odette tilted her head ,"At home.. why ? It's just a funeral for Emily he didn't need to be here ." She says nonchalantly shrugging

"It's Esmee." Claire and her mother said at the same time .

Odette looked at her mother confused and back at Claire
"Okay I need someone to tell me what's going on ?" She sighs dramatically sitting next to Brent leaning on his shoulder.

Brent nods,"I seconded that ."

Odettes mother held small papers slightly because her hands were trembling.
Odette eyes them intently in her hand , they seemed to look like photographs.

Their mother hesitated before she walked around handing them pictures.
Odette looked at their family picture, although someone else was there . Standing next to her . A little girl with dark hair .

"Who's that?" Brent spoke up looking up at his parents before looking back down .

Brent felt like he's seen this girl before , he couldn't pin point it ."That was your sister.. Esmee." Their mother spoke up weakly and Odette tensed .
"Wait .." she frowned not believing this ."She looks almost my age.. why didn't you tell us about her?"

"I know I have a lot of explaining to do ..she's two years younger than you Odette " she admitted weakly a few tears falling down her cheeks .

Odette was puzzled and so was Brent . Odette doesn't even remember the girl , how could she not remember anything ?

Brent sat quietly taking in this new information . Everyone was shocked by parents actions they never saw them , this emotional before .

"Recently ..your youngest sister has passed away and it's my fault ." She explains breaking down in tears .Her husband immediately held her tightly rubbing her back soothingly .

Their father sighed continuing for her ..
"Your mothers last pregnancy was hard , she wasn't happy, she didn't glow like she did with you guys . In fact your mother almost died giving birth to her .
Once Esmee was here she didn't look like she belonged..she took after our elders . She didn't have a wolf .As a child she didn't play she just sat there staring . She was an runt , and at the time she was an embarrassment." Their father spoke

Brent face twisted,"That's heartless." He frowned .

Their father continued ," Your mother didn't bond to her as she did all of you . So we agreed she would be better working as an servant."

Claire immediately stood up ,"That's insane! You just gave away your child so easily ?" She asks frowning

The mother nodded weakly wiping her eyes ," I'm so sorry Claire , we didn't want her here . She would've done better with people that are low in rank like her .."

Claire face twisted ,"Your disgusting." She muttered walking out of the house slamming the door behind herself .

Odette sat there in dumbfounded,"Is she at least getting buried in our family cemetery?" She questioned

Their mother face shifted ,"No." she spoke quietly. Brent sighs shaking his head weakly.
"That's messed up mom ." He muttered

"How did she die?" Odette questions .

Their mother didn't have the courage enough to say it . The father sighs once more ,"She was the servant to get attacked in the woods that night .. a week or two after the attack she killed herself ."

Brent winced hearing it shaking his head ,"Wow," he breathed out weakly .
