Chapter 24 Lachlan

• I sit in the car waiting for Violet and Tate, having spoken to the hospital once more. They are happy for Violet to visit and say her goodbyes to her Aunt. This girl was as frustrating as hell earlier, but right now she needed our support. She had lost the only family she had left. The woman that had brought her up when everyone else had deserted her.
• As an Alpha and a werewolf, I do not understand the mentality of her father’s family. A wolf is a pack animal, therefore a werewolf thinks in much the same way. Family is of huge importance, so the fact she had an extended family out there that had all deserted her when she needed them most infuriates me. That is not how we as werewolves should act. It makes no sense. I know her father acted badly, but this girl had no part in that, she was still of their blood, their kin. She needed them. Her father was gone. Yet they all turned their backs on her. It was disgusting.
• She should have been brought up in a pack, surrounded by others like her. So she did not find herself in the situation she had this week. But because of the lowlife reprobates that she has the inconvenience to class as relations disowning her, refusing her help, she had to rely on the help of her mother’s only living relative, an elderly relative who must have struggled massively bringing up a young girl.
