"Huh! You want to marry that woman?" Dad had been yelling at me ever since I arrived home.
I sat on the couch with my body hunched over, elbows resting on my thighs, and my eyes squeezed shut at the complaint my father was making.
Ever since I had spoken to Helanie, I had been feeling so angry that I couldn't think straight.
"You know Vonston called me. He said I need to help you and that he thinks you might be obsessed with that girl. Do you have any idea what your statements today caused for us? Everyone who used to think Helanie was the desperate one who wanted to marry an alpha is now suspicious of you," he kept going on and on.
My sister sat on a separate sofa, her eyes blank as if they no longer recognized me. I didn't get what I had done so wrong that my family wasn't believing me.
