Chapter 177: Some Good News

[Rose’s P.O.V.]

When Edward was back at the pack, I had asked Susanna to buy some men’s cotton underwear, T-shirts, razors, and other necessities for him online, just in case he needed them during his stay with us.

It had been four days since he returned to me and he had sort of turned into my shadow – he would follow me everywhere, even the bathroom, afraid I would fall or that something else would happen to me.

He also liked putting his head on my belly to listen to and feel the movements of our little wolf in my belly. He behaved just like any good father would. But honestly, I did feel that his behavior was getting a little too much.

“Edward, move your big head away from my stomach!”

“Dear, did I press a little too hard on you? I don’t think so. My muscles should be strong enough to support my body so that my entire weight isn’t pressing down on your belly.”

“Stop your narcissism. Why didn’t I realize that you were so clingy before?”

“Dearest, you left me, rejected me, and almost killed me. You even took my unborn child and ran away. You can’t blame me for acting this way.”

“So, you’re saying that this is my fault?”

“Of course, not, Baby.”

“Well, it sure does sound like it.”

“I’m sorry, Baby. I’m sorry that I didn’t return to the pack earlier. I’m sorry for making you suffer so much.”

“I reluctantly accept your apology.”

I snorted and continued reading my book. But he leaned over and did the same thing again. The little wolf in my stomach must have sensed the amount of attention he or she was getting from the father because the little wolf started to happily kick so much and hard I swore.

But then I regretted it. I blamed my severe irritability on my pregnancy and my hormonal imbalance. I didn’t want to make anyone else a victim of my mood swings. I couldn’t wait to give birth and return to my normal self.

Then, a phone in the living room rang. It was Edward’s. Ever since he’d arrived, he would often leave his phone on the coffee table right next to mine. He wanted to minimize my exposure to radiation.

Edward reluctantly got up from my stomach and I watched him walk over to the phone. He was big and muscular, which was why I felt safe with him. He answered the phone and a few minutes later, he returned to the bedroom and lay on my belly like a dog again.

“Baby, I don’t want to startle you before you give birth, but I think this might be good news for you.”

“What’s the matter?”

“Alex from New Moon Pack fought with his father. He even bit his father in front of the investigator sent by the Council of Elders.”

“Well, I’m honestly not too surprised. Both father and son are oddballs. But why would the Council of Elders send an investigator to their place?”

“I went to the Council of Elders once to submit a copy of evidence I had from the investigations of what had happened to us. Included was some information related to what happened to your pack. Alex was definitely not innocent in all of this, but I knew Alpha Roger was the main culprit with regards to your pack’s massacre.”

“So what did the Council of Elders find out?” I stopped reading the book in my hand, growing anxious.

“Thankfully, the quality of investigators among their ranks is much better than before because the one assigned to our case, Manel, had quickly reviewed everything, from the past to the present, and submitted his findings, including Roger’s and Alex’s confessions, to the Council of Elders. It was revealed that your pack’s massacre was all simply due to Alpha Roger trying to covet your mother.”

“What?!”

“He wanted Luna Nancy, so he started the war. In the midst of his confession, he called his wife a wh*re, claiming that he had never wanted to be with her. He also called his son a b*stard.”

“How will he be punished?” I felt my tears start to flow uncontrollably in my eyes as I thought of the way my father looked at me before he died. Eight years ago, his head and dignity had been trampled by that b*stard. Now, the truth had been revealed and his innocence had been proven, but my father was not able to live to see this day come.

“Usually it would be life imprisonment, but that b*stard’s actions were too vile. It’s very likely that he will be sentenced to death. He and his pack members have also committed the crime of enslaving and torturing non-pack members.”

Such simple words made the floodgates of my tear ducts open wide as I covered my face and cried. I had waited for this moment for far too long. I wasn’t heartbroken over my years of suffering. I was just heartbroken that my father had actually been killed for that absurd and selfish reason.

Edward gently patted my back and placed my head on his shoulder as he continuously comforted me quietly. Not long after, I stopped crying.

“Thank you for telling me this, Edward. Thank you for all the sacrifices you’ve made for my pack.”

“This is what I should do, Baby. They are my parents and pack too by marriage. They deserve to be treated fairly.”

He looked at me seriously as he spoke, his eyes filled with tenderness. His words once again touched me so much that my eyes reddened once again. Then, I recalled how this re-investigation started in the first place.

“Oh right, how will Emily and the others be dealt with?”

“I was just about to tell you,” said Edward. He started scratching the back of his neck and started acting a little more cautiously around me. His expression turned serious and I grew more curious about what he would say.
