"You're wrong, dear, she's not my biological sister, but she's my sister from this day henceforth," Elsie said, and Alpha Richard gave a look of confusion.
"I'm sorry, but I'm a little lost here, she's not your sister, but she's now your sister. You'll have to explain it to me," Alpha Richard said, and Elsie giggled.
She went on to also explain what Ana had just told her to him. "My father made such a terrible mistake, and it almost made me lose the love of my life, my wonderful mate, and I've made a promise to myself that I won't stand by and watch while another innocent person is accused and punished for someone else's crime. I'm going to have to confront the Alpha of the Crescent Moon pack. He has to apologize to this girl or face the consequences. I don't mind going on a full-on war since our pack is much bigger and stronger," Alpha Richard stated, and fear gripped my heart instantly.
Though I hated Zephyr and mostly everyone else in that pack, I would never wish for a war to happen because of me. Too many innocent people's lives would be at stake, and I just wouldn't be able to bear that. As much as the attention I was getting was so gratifying, I didn't want to let it get the better of me.
I shook my head in refusal, and luckily, Elsie quickly got the message.
"No, dear. As much as I'm in support of your decision, I'm afraid we must not go forward with it. Too many innocent people's lives would be at risk," Elsie cautioned.
"What innocent people are you talking about? According to what you said, she was abused and treated even worse than a slave by all the members of her pack, so none of them are innocent," Alpha Richard raged.
"What about the little pups? Aren't they innocent? They know nothing of what their parents are doing, so should they be punished for the misdeeds of their parents? And what about our own people? What will we tell their families if they lose their lives in such a senseless battle? I really don't want any loss of lives. I feel really angry with everyone in the Crescent Moon pack for their barbaric behavior, but we must not take action based on our sentiments. I'm just glad that Evelyn is alive and well and she's with us now, so she won't have to go through such inhumane treatment ever again," Elsie cajoled, and this caused Alpha Richard to calm down.
