Chosen just to be Rejected (by Jennifer Francis) novel Chapter 78

78 Belladonna She stood with Whit and saw Parker and Kane off from the packhouse stairs .

A part of her couldnt really believe he was actually leaving and going back to his pack without Whit .

Hed told her and Whitney that he would come back in a month to spend four or five days getting to know them .

That theyd eventually work out a custody agreement of some sort .

She knew hed already gotten permission from Aston to come back and be in the pack .

She had been there when Parker had discussed it .

Whit looked up at her after Parker left .

Hes weird .

He murmured and even Aston chuckled from next to her .

Its not weird Whit .

Parker is just trying to show you that he respects not only your decision , but Bells as well .

Though I personally dont know many Alphas who would do what hes doing .

Which is why its weird , Whit stated .

Which is what exactly ? Bella asked .

Allowing you to see that it is your choice , but at the same time showing both you and Whit that he wants you inside his pack .

That he would like to instate Whit as his heir , but that he wont do so unless Whit himself wants that .

Aston smiled at her .

Hes being respectful of you , Bell , treating you like an Alpha , and treating Whit as his son who he wants to get to know properly .

I think the man will wait patiently for the two of you to make a decision and even respect what it will be .

Regardless of if its not what he wants .

What decision ? Whit asked , looking at Aston with a slight frown .

Moving to his pack , that is what he wants .

But he wants it to be completely your decision .

I dont see Parker just trying to pack you up and take you back to his pack like so many others would do .

Aston nodded .

I dont think that is who he is .

Hed get his butt kicked by the Luna if he tried it .

Whit chuckled .

Yes , he would .

Aston nodded .

But thats not the reason for him waiting Whit .

Aston stated and waved Whit off , and the boy headed for school .

How do you feel Bell ? he asked her .

I dont know .

She answered honestly .

Ive never thought about going back .

And she hadnt , but now she knew that Parker had been robbed of knowing about Whit and he had files on her home pack inside his pack .

Files he was willing to let her look at .

Hed also offered to look into 1/4 78 +8 Point her mother .

Who she was , and maybe he could find out where she was .

I should go to the hospital , she stated and Aston nodded .

She attended rounds and sat in her office , and did something shed not done before : logged into the intranet and checked on her home pack .

She had never been interested in knowing what was going on inside that place , because shed not liked growing up there .

She put the packs name in and stared at the words Pack Dissolved .

There was no pack anymore .

She clicked on the link that was attached to it and found out that it had been dissolved 7 years ago under her half brothers reign .

Lack of growth was the reason why .

She could see that the pack had been barely 200 wolves when it had been dissolved and that those wolves had been sent to other packs .

There was a list of packs that the wolves had gone to , though it didnt state who went where .

She understood that , it was likely to protect them .

She read down the list and shook her head .

Some of those wolves were in Parkers subsidiary packs , but none in the main pack .

After his words about her father , she doubted any of her actual family or siblings were there .

Certainly not her father or the Luna she didnt think .

She put her fathers name into the search bar and found that hed been sent to the Wolfen Kingdom along with his Luna for crimes against wolves , it read .

The date preceded the dissolving of the pack .

She sighed and leaned back in her chair and wondered if her mother was one of the wolves that Parker had stated had been enslaved into his pack .

She couldnt even put the womans name into the search bar because she didnt know it .

Freya claimed to be her mothers wolf but had never stated her mothers name , not once .

It was odd , but she wouldnt cough it up , simply stated Leave her be , she needs peace .

Those words echoed inside her mind along with Parkers Your father was a brute .

And she just knew her mother had not been a willing participant in her conception .
