We took a small break so that Erin could have a talk with Jackson before I explained everything that h listen especially since I am his blood daughter but it is hard when he just found me and we are basica "How do you think Dad is going to do after the explanation?" Brittney whispered as we found a place "Everything is going to be ok. All of this is a shock and takes some time." I hugged her to me. "Here is "We didn't know it was the last one." Leo whined, standing up. "I am going to ask the kitchen to make Lucas stood with him smirking. "How bout we ask for so many you would have to eat one cookie a mir "You just want to roll her down the hill over there to see how fast she would go." Brittney teased. "Hey!" I pushed her off me teasingly. "I don't need that many. How about you get me plenty of Chinese Brittney jumped up on her knees and grabbed my shoulders. "Let me eat dinner with you. Please!" She begged. "Brittney." Jackson shouted. "Don't be all over her."

I held my hand up laughing. "It is fine, and I wouldn't want it any other way. I want all my family there "Hell ya, girlfriend." Erin smirked. "But only if there are extra egg rolls."

"No promises since Duncan loves his egg rolls." I looked over at Duncan who was a few feet away spea Jackson growled. "He did what?"

ith a few guards. "I almost got stabbed with a chopstick taking his last time. I gave it back real quick."

"Calm down there papa bear. They would never hurt her." Erin patted his sons back. "Now how about we get this explanation going so we can all feel a bit calmer." "Ok." I jumped up pulling Brittney with me. "But first I need a promise from Jackson that no matter wh "What?" Jackson looked shocked. "Why would i get mad at you for a misunderstanding?"

sister or I say he won't get mad at us."

Before I could reply Brittney did. "Dad, its not. Matilda is only nice to me in front of you or other important members of the pack." She took a deep breath. "When it is just us she puts me down for my clothes, my friends, and everything else. She-It- And meeting her a few weeks ago wasn't the first time you or I have met her."

"No. She wouldn't. She loves you. She calls you her daughter in all sense of the word." Jackson searche "Dad, I am sorry. If you don't believe me you can ask my friends or even the lesser soldiers who have

I just think its a misunderstanding." Britney's eyes welled with tears. "Britt bear, don't cry. We can work this out."

"Just stop it." I pulled Brittney against me and started walking half hoping he wouldn't be able to keep pace with me. All i wanted to do was punch him in the throat. "I doubt your daughter has ever lied to you about something like this. She has dealt with that witch ever since you brought her home. You instantly thought everything was fine and went about yoru business. She is telling you that piece of work put her down so often now she questions your love and faith in her." I turned toward him keeping her away from him. "She questions if she is good enough for her friends, her life, her mate. She is a teenager with a hard enough time dealing with bullies and snot-nose bitches at school. Why should she go home to that fake...ugh not a bad enough name is coming to mind- but you get my drift."

"I-" He stumbled. "Britt... How... My wolf thinks she is our second chance mate. How could she not be?"

"A witch," Duncan replied. "I messaged a friend earlier from a local coven and there is a spell for it but it is dark magic and requires a big sacrifice of life. There is a way to tell."

"How?" Brittney sniffled. "Dad has to do it. He needs to see. He needs..."

"To trust in his blood family who has never done him wrong." I kept my glare on Jackson.

Erin takes Brittney into his arms. "Its ok, little dove. It is shock. Your daddy loves you more than anything."

"It involves you getting physical with another girl and watching both reactions. If she is your mate she will hurt and you will half ass it. If she isn't she won't feel anything and your wolf won't feel guilty." Duncan shrugged. "I know a few she-wolves here that have noticed you and don't want attachments."

"Yuck. Yuck." I was disgusted. "No talks about my dad getting busy with one of the ladies here." Brittney had fingers in her ears with Erin laughing so hard he was shaking both of them.

"I can't do that." Jackson shook his head.

"You can. For your daughters." Draco growled as he walked up to us. "Sorry Allie was super tired so I took her home real quick and then she needed snacks."

"Its fine. I am thankful for the distraction." I hugged him. "Now Jackson tell us if you will or won't so we can question her later on."

"I will.... Goddess.... If it helps all of us especially my daughters, I will do it."

"Ok, lets pimp you out." Leo shouted with a smile.

"And while we do that you do not go in the dungeon near her."

"Fine I won't but before you one I have last thing to explain." I walked up to Jackson and grabbed his hand. "She was excited about me because is from an allied pack with Alpha Trevor. The Alpha is not a good guy and has tried numerous things, but I was always too quick. It would make him so angry. He wanted a change to mistreat someone that no one would protect. She has been reporting back and knows that. This time I didn't let her which pushed her over the edge and is trying anything to stay alive." Jackson pulled me into a tight hug. "I am so sorry. Never again." I just nodded and let him hug me.
