“Yes, lets find us this witch” She says, and I feel excited for the first time in days things were going to work out, everything would be fine, and I would be free to move on with my life and them the same.

“When do you want to go?” I ask her.

“Tomorrow I will tell Chase we are going on a girls weekend, I can tell him to go see his brother early, he is worried about things back home” She says, and I nod everything coming together.

“I will handle mum” I tell her, and she nods.

“Yes you can tell her we are going away, I don’t want to be slapped again” She says.

Chapter44

Lana’s POV

I spoke to mum last night asking if I could go away for the weekend, seemed stupid that I had to ask permission considering I am technically an adult. Her reply was I had to ask my brother which I was not looking forward to because since I have left, something has drastically changed within my brother, he was cold and nasty, completely different to when I left, I have been home for eight days and Ryker and my father have been at each other’s throats constantly. Chase left last night after finding out about us going away to see Drake.

Walking downstairs, I look for my brother. Walking down the hall I could hear my mother and him yelling at each other. I hesitate at the door waiting for them to finish not wanting to become involved in their latest argument.

“What is going on with you, you can’t treat people like that Ryker”

“Stay out of it mum, my sister I will treat him, how I god damn well please”

“He was a fucking kid for goddess sake, I never should have told you”

“He wasn’t a fucking child, and after what he did to her, fuck him. He is lucky I didn’t fucking kill him” My heart skips a beat, who are they talking about Chase? I saw him leave and he looked fine.

“I don’t know what has got into you but this needs to stop, I want you to stand down. Let your father take back over until you sort your shit out Ryker” I hear my mother tell him before hearing something break as he growls at her.

“Enough, just tell me what is wrong, ever since you came back you have been an insufferable jerk, the entire pack is running scared because your driving them to hard, expecting to much, you’re scary everyone, you are scaring me”

“I don’t care, it is my pack and if Dad wants it back, he can fucking challenge me for it” Ryker growls at her.

I open the door having heard enough and the way he was talking to her hoping I would be enough of a distraction to diffuse the situation.

“Get out!” My brother bellows at me. My mother had tears streaming down her face, I knew she was worried for Ryker, we all were. Something had turned him cold and cruel, he even beat up uncle Zane my fathers Beta the other day for missing patrol duty, attacked his own Beta for using his name instead of his title, something was definitely wrong with him.

I turn about to shut the door, “Lana stop I am sorry, what do you want?” He says flopping down in his office chair glaring at my mother who had turn to look at me.

“I need permission to leave”

“You’re not a pack member you don’t need permission off me” He says.

“No but Arial does, and she is coming with me” I tell him.

“She isn’t leaving pack grounds, not after the shit she has caused” He growls and my mother throws her hands up before walking out only to stop at the door.

“For once stop being an asshole, if you’re that worried about Arial going go with them, give us all a break from you” My mother snaps at him walking out. He growls at her before tossing his stapler at the door, it shatters everywhere, and I bend down and pick up the pieces before placing them on the desk.

“She isn’t leaving, and where is it you are going?”

“It doesn’t matter, I will go another time” I tell him about to walk out.

“Lana wait” He calls making me look back at him before sitting back in his chair and looking at the roof with a sigh, he runs his hands through his hair.

“Fine she go, where are you going?” I hesitate wondering whether I should tell him.

“Lana!” He asks demanding to know and I feel his aura hit me, so much like mums, yet colder.

“Avalon City”
