Neriah
I stared at him trying to understand what he meant.
"My grandfathers? The mastermind behind ritual?"
He nodded with a sly smile. "I discovered it too late, Neriah. I was a loyal servant, and I did everything by the book, but I discovered that my sister was one of the Omegas who was sacrificed."
He paused as pain flitted through his eyes. "I betrayed my people that night. I broke the oath and burned down the temple where the rituals were being performed, killing everyone inside – warriors, priests and the Alpha of the Northern Forest's younger brother…" he turned to me "Your father's brother and your uncle."
"So this is why my father has been hunting you all these years? For revenge?"
He laughed. "That's far from it, Neriah. He doesn't want me for revenge, he wants to protect you. You're the last piece of the curse."
"Last piece of the curse? What are you talking about? What do you mean?"
