GoodNovelChapter 278 Chapter 278 His hand fisted on the table, the old Alpha instincts rising in a man far too broken to bear them now.
I turned to him, tilting my head slightly and studying him like a new species of worm. "And what makes you think you have the power to tellthat, Dad?" My voice stayed even and patient, like a teacher correcting a very stupid child.
Jorja inhaled sharply, fighting for control.
"On the day of the transition," she began in a tight voice, "Jareel's daughter was mated to her step-cousin. And we the entire Council - made sure they rejected each other." Her hands were trembling now as she gripped her wine glass. "Imagine what the pack will say when they learn that the sthing we condemned is happening in our own home." I chuckled, "I never asked anyone to do my Alpha duties for me, Mother," I said, spearing another piece of meat with my fork. "That was your decision. Your guilt. Your belief. Your morals. Your need to appear righteous before sheep who'd stone you the moment you showed a crack. If you had consultedbefore playing god with other people's lives, you wouldn't have this headache now." I explained casually, placing my hand on Kasmine's and intertwining our fingers where everyone could see.

"This is absurd! It's an abomination! Incest! You are family!" Jorja," I called her by her name, "Kasmine and I aren't blood-related. The Moon Goddess isn't foolish, and she doesn't make mistakes. But you? You mistake everything you don't understand for evil. That's your sickness, not mine." "Kester. The pack forbids such a union.

I turned to him slowly, letting my smile curdle into something meaner.
"And who exactly decided that, Lance? My pack now writes laws without my knowledge? Without my consent?" He looked away, shcoloring his cheeks.

Kasmine heaved a heavy sigh, which seemed to have made Jorja suddenly aware that the subject of our conflict was sitting right next to me.
"Kasmine! Don't tellyou want this. Don't tell me..." "Jorja. Please don't put words in her mouth. She wants this.

Kasmine's throat worked in a small, silent gulp. She looked at them before dropping her gaze quickly like a guilty child caught lying.
