Paris’ POV

I glare at Maren as I realize she is trying to use Ben to get my father back into her miserable life. Ben did not ask to be there, and it is not his fault that she made him the brat that he is. I look at Ben and see the traces of tears on his cheeks. I bet the rest of the pack is teasing him for being illegitimate, as they are a bunch of cruel wolves. It is all Maren’s fault! I hate her with all my heart. She is the reason my family is a mess at the moment. I feel London coming to stand beside me. Maren glares at the two of us.

“Piss off, Maren. We are taking our brother, and you will never see him or Carl again,” I say. Like she took everything from me, I will take everything from her. I feel sorry for Ben, and I can not leave him with the cruel she-wolf that once was my mother.

“It is no way to talk to your mother, young lady,” Maren says. She looks at Carl for support, but he turns his back on her.

“You are not my mother! You stopped being a mother years ago,” I say.

“London, can I please have a word with you alone?” Maren asks. I know what she is thinking. London does not know her, and she can use her to get Carl and Ben back.

“No, you are not my mother, and I don’t think we have anything to say to each other,” London says, and I am proud of my sister for not being a pushover for once. Maren looks really pissed off, but I do not care.

“Ben, come on, they do not want us here,” Maren says and holds out her hand to Ben.

“I am not going with you! You are no longer my mother! I hate you! You lied to me, and now my father wants nothing to do with me,” Ben cries. He is only a little boy, and my heart breaks for him. I know how cruel everyone will be with him once he returns to the Ravenstone pack. I have to protect him, although I do not like the brat! He is still my brother, after all, and I can not leave him in the hands of Maren. I don’t think Maren is capable of loving anyone.

“Carl is not your father. The Alpha is your father, and he will take care of us,” Maren says.

“No, he won’t! Don’t lie to Ben! You have done enough damage as it is. Why don’t you leave, Maden? Go back to your lover and your pack,” I say.

“Shut up, you little slut! I know why you want to keep Ben with you! You want me to lose everything like you lost everything! I will not give up my son,” Maden says, and she storms at Ben and me. She wants to take Ben by force, but I grab her and throw her against a tree. I am much stronger than Maden. I can hear her bones crack as she hits the tree. She cries out in pain. I hand Ben to London, who takes him inside her apartment. Henry, Mark and William answer Maden’s cry for help. Henry storms me, but Carl grabs him by the neck before he can reach me and holds him up in the air.

“I can fight my own battles,” I say.

“I know, baby girl, but let daddy protect you for once,” Carl says. Okay, so maybe I have to give him a chance to prove himself. I stand aside and watch as Carl starts beating the living s**t out of Henry. I laugh, as Henry is no match for his ex-beta.

“Ravenstone’s Alpha is not very strong, is he?” I mock Henry, and he tries to get out of Carl’s grip.

“Shut up, Paris. Why don’t you and your father go away and leave us alone?” Mark asks.

“Maden came here looking for trouble. We left you alone! She wants my father back as her mate, but he is no longer stupid. He knows what and who she is,” I say.

“Where is Ben? Give me my brother,” Mark shouts.

“He is not your brother. Besides, doesn’t your pack have other problems? Don’t you need to get the Cloverfield pack off your backs?” I ask, and I can see that Mark is not feeling comfortable talking about his pack’s problems anymore. I laugh as Mark tries to help his father. My father throws Mark against the same tree I threw Maden. He lands on top of Maden, who is still hurt. It takes a while for a werewolf to heal. I hear her m**n, and I smile. Mark is also in pain as he tries to get up. My father throws Henry on top of Mark, and the three m**n in pain.

“That is for hurting and rejecting my daughter,” My father says.

“You rejected Paris?” Henry asks.

“The day of our graduation, it was before I knew she was a princess,” Mark says. Henry gets up and looks at my father.

“Carl, I am sorry about what happened between Maden and me. Can you not forgive us and give Maden another chance? She is your mate, and she loves you. What happened between us was an accident. She thought I was you. It was dark, and she could not tell. I took advantage of her,” Henry explains. I roll my eyes. Henry can not be serious. Does he think anyone is that stupid?

“What do you take me for, Henry? She is a bloody she-wolf. She is supposed to smell her mate! I might have been stupid for years, but my eyes are open now, and I think clearly. Piss off! Take your w***e with you,” My father says. I feel like clapping my hands. Wow, he does have brains, after all.

“Are you stupid? Why would you lie to Carl? What happened between us was not an accident! I wanted to have a son, and Carl could not give me one, so I asked you to give me a son that one day can become the king of Essex. Carl could not have any more pups after the twins were born. I know my father will take me back if I can show him his grandson, but I never got the chance, as Carl did not want us to return to the Kingdom of Essex. I used you! I want my son! I want to return to my rightful place in the court of Essex! I was young and stupid when I ran away with Carl. I thought I could not live without my mate. Over the years, I started hating him for taking me away from my privileged life. I hated my daughters as I knew they had a better chance of becoming the Queen of Essex than I had. That is why I had Ben. He is my ticket back to my father. I would have been back in Essex long ago if it were not for Carl. He prevented me from going back home! I could not afford a ticket back home, and he did not want to give me money. After saving for years to return, I finally got the money, and then London had to open her big mouth and tell Carl the truth. I was planning on running away with Ben and going and seeing my father,” Maden brings out her whole plan in her fit of anger.

“Wow, you are worse than I thought. Hahaha, you can return to England, but not with Ben. I will not let you use him like a pawn,” I laugh at Maden.

“Your father will not take you back if you come with a prince or not. London is the heir to the throne, and you should know that in the Kingdom, it does not matter if you are a female or male. Everyone has the same rights. The firstborn gets the crown,” Jeffrey says.

“Well, that is why I wanted Paris gone. I was hoping she would become rough so I could kill her. London would be easy to kill because of the war. I would have killed her and pretended Oliver did it. That is when I would show up with Ben, and he would have gotten the crown, and my father would have accepted me back since I had another heir,” Maden says. She is talking too much, but she can not stop herself. I know Maden. She thinks she is clever and will still make her plan work. I can see everyone is in shock. Henry and my father look at Maden as though they do not know her.

“You are batshit crazy. How in hell’s name were you planning on killing me?” I ask.

“Yeah, and how were you planning on getting near London?” Jeffrey asks.

“Well, I have my way,” Maden says. I know she did not think it through.

“Yeah, you are lying. You have no idea how you would have done it because you did not think I was so strong and that London would be protected. It was your idea for the pack to kidnap us! You were the one that planned to take the hunting grounds of the Cloverfield pack! While London and I were at the Ravenstone pack, you intended to kill us! You did not expect us to deny your request for help, but you did have a backup plan if we did not want to help the pack! You are truly evil. Well, you screwed yourself over. I don’t think you have a pack any longer, and you have no mate or children,” I say. I can see Maden go pale.

“I did not plan all that! Henry, you got to believe me! I am sorry. Please do not kick me out of the pack,” Maden starts begging. She knows that if she gets kicked out of the pack, she will become a rogue and not be safe.

“You used me! You are no longer a member of the Ravenstone pack. It was all your plan to take the hunting grounds for us! You told us the Cloverfield pack is not strong without its Alpha. You told us to come and get London and Paris to help with the Cloverfield pack as their Alpha will return, and you did not know. You thought he was dead. It was all you!” Henry shouts.

“Well, it looks like your plan failed, and now you are all alone. Good luck, and don’t get yourself killed, Princess Maren,” I say.

“Carl? You are my mate, and I love you. Please, take me with you,” Maden begs my father.

“Go to hell, Maden! I will not allow you near my daughter ever again,” My father says.

“Ben, come with mommy,” Maden says, but Ben shakes his head as he holds my hand.

“No, you are not my mother!” Ben shouts.

“Then I have no reason to live anymore,” Maden tries to get out sympathy one last time.

“Nope, you don’t run off a cliff or jump into a river of silver,” I say.

“I can help you and give you a silver bullet,” Jeffrey says.

“Hahaha, she does not have the guts to commit suicide. She loves herself too much,” I laugh. Maden looks lost as the Ravenstone pack turns their backs on her. She is no longer a pack member, and I know they are breaking all bonds with her.

“Bye, Maden. Never put your feet near our pack again. Mark, you and I need to talk! Have I not told you that you never reject your mate!” Henry shouts at Mark.

“She is not worthy of me, father. Look at her! She thinks she is all that because she is a princess, but she is still the omega that had to clean our toilets,” Mark says as he walks away. He and his friends laugh, and I smile. One day I will get my revenge on that pack, and they had better pray I will show them mercy.

“Her brother is a w***e child,” One of Mark’s friends says.

“Watch it! You are talking about my son,” Alpha Henry says. I hug Ben as he starts crying again.

“Don’t mind them, Benny. They will pay for every word they said today,” I say. Ben looks up at me, and he hugs me back. He is only a little boy, and I can not hate him for what my mother made him.

“I love you, Paris. I will never be ugly to you again,” Ben promise me. I smile at him. Then I turn to Maden.

“You had better replace a new home before nightfall. You know, the vampires and rogues like lost she-wolves to play with after dark. Isn’t that what you told me once when you said I would be a rogue one day,” I ask, and I laugh as I see the panic in Maden’s eyes.
