38-I Am Not Perfect
There was an awkward silence for a moment before Lord Vasquez got out of the chair and stared at my
mom in silence.
He then turned around to his sons and nodded his head. I was afraid of what was going to happen now.
“Scarlet!” He kept a smile on his lips when talking to my mom, “They told me everything and why it is
needed that we don’t give her these medicines for now. They are not being rude or ruthless toward her.
She needs to heal before she takes those medicines again,” he was very calm with my mom.
“I get it. But you don’t understand. The wolfbane cannot hide her scent. So she needs to take those
medicines or else—” She paused just in time, but I got the idea of what fear was taking over her.
“Oh, my lovely Scarlet,” the instant Lord Vasquez walked up to my mom and hugged her, the brothers
turned their faces away from the sight. I have never had a dad, so I couldn’t understand their feelings.
“She is a stepsister of alpha kings now. She doesn’t need to be afraid of anything. Let her wolf come out;
we will deal with the madness,” the suggestion shook my body, and hugged me, digging nails into my
arms.
“No!” Mom instantly broke the hug and shook her head at the idea. I knew she would never be on board,
and neither would I be. I didn’t want to take any risks.
“Okay, calm down first,” Lord Vasquez mumbled and wrapped his one arm around her while turning to
look at his sons.
“Who has her pills?” he asked.
“I have.” Akin tilted his head when answering and folded his arms to show he was going to budge.
“Akin! Give her the pill bottle. If her mother is not accepting your help, then respect her decision,” he was
Follow current on NovelEnglish.netcalm today. I bet the long stay alone with my mom worked. She had him wrapped around her finger.
“Didn’t you just say we were her stepbrothers? Then what makes you think we don’t have a say in her
health issues?” Akin impressed me with how stubborn he was. I was silently watching his face in
disbelief.
“Akin!” Lord Vasquez clenched his jaw, slowly calming himself down to talk to him.
“Dad! Brother is right. If she takes the medicine now, she will grow weak. Don’t you see how miserable
she is? It is because of those pills.” Helel stepped ahead to state his concern this time. I watched myself
in the reflection of the glass door and frowned at his words.
I am not that weak.
“That is a lie. The medicines are to make sure her wolf stays sleeping,” mom said, raising her face from
Lord Vasquez’s chest to raise her voice. “Wolfbane can never do half of the job these pills do,” she
added.
“These pills comprise some highly potent sedatives and chemicals that haven’t been used in ages. Why
the hell would you feed her that?” Helel, being a trainer and a guru of all sorts of herbs, spoke up.
“I can back that one up. One of the ingredients here is one to which I was once addicted to once. Mainly
because it made me see heaven,” It was Maddox who stepped forward this time. I was shocked at how
freely he spoke about his addiction in front of his father, who was gritting his teeth at him.
But then i thought of what they were saying. Were those medicines really that strong?
“You guys have no idea what you are talking about right now. The moment she transitions; you all will
agree with me that her wolf needs to stay sleeping.” Mom’s voice broke this time. I stepped ahead and
saw the terror in her eyes when talking about my wolf.
“Then tell us about her wolf,” Akin demanded. I noticed the only one silently sitting back against the
couch was Zane. He was just observing everything.
“All you need to know is that- her wolf has evil instincts.” Those words made my mom lower her face and
hide her face from me.
“Evil? How so?” Maddox questioned me with a frown on his face after he examined me.
“She is more inclined to be an evil she-wolf than just your regular one. Her wolf is outrageous, she loves
tension and bl- ood,” she finished, and everybody looked shocked. I just couldn’t really think of anything
because they were talking about me right when I was in their sight.
“Hm!” Lord Vasquez looked my way and scrunched his nose. I have heard a little bit about him. He hates
imperfection.

“That’s unfortunate,” Lord Vasquez mumbled, “I don’t understand why we left her with my sons.” It was
then that his statement turned everyone’s attention to him.
“Because where else would she live?” Mom now understood that she had said a lot. But it is not like she
was given a choice. They kind of forced her to tell my secrets.
“If she is evil, she shouldn’t be around my sons. They are the next in line after the Alpha Kings. That is
so irresponsible of us.” He was shaking his head and passing me nasty glares as if I were some
miscreant living in his home.
“Come on, Dad. You really think we cannot handle a she- wolf?” It was Helel who objected, “That is so
wrong.” He seemed upset with his father’s words. Maybe it was just the fact that his father questioned
their ability to take care of a she-wolf like me.
“Fine. Then if you think she is not good enough to stay with you all, then I will just take her away from
here.” My mom turned over to me and held my hand to leave. I was shocked at the events playing out
against us.
“Wait! How can you leave?” Lord Vasquez’s prideful stance was shattered when he watched my mother
prepare to leave him for me.
“I will not stay where my daughter cannot stay. I thought you would be like a father to her, and she told
me you would be. But it seems like you have changed your mind, so we will leave now,” my mother said
as she walked past him while holding my hand, and soon we were in my room packing our bags. I was
still in shock at the turn of events.
