Chapter 270 Pictures.
Gillean’s p.o.v.
I am not sure how to feel, a part of me is angry with my Grandparents and the other part is happy to find out that Lyssa survived and that White Rock Pack will finally pay.
“If you can contact Alpha Mick, he will be able to provide you with the record of my testimony. They recorded it after I returned from White Rock Pack and needed to tell someone about what I witnessed there, I will even repeat it in a trial if I have to.” I say as look at Morgan.
She seems to be in thought for a while. “No need for that. I will send a unit to get that recording and use it as another nail on their coffin. We will start with taking the leadership out, but we won’t be announcing our arrival at the front gate. Any idea on how to get in?” Morgan asks and everyone looks at me to see if I have
an answer.
“My best bet would be the border where Yara took me, I didn’t notice any Warriors at all. I do have to say that it has been five years, so they might have gotten a little wiser.” I say and Jaylen looks at me with a brow lifted. “I said a little.” I mumble.
Morgan gets up to open the door when we hear a knock and Deacon hands her a tablet, before he turns to walk away. “Everything we have is o this tablet, go through it and see if you can find anything else.” Morgan says before she hands me the table and she leaves with Jaylen and Roan right behind her.
Mace and I start arguing on what to do next, confront my Grandparents or dive into this assignment. I smell them before they open the door and it seems that the choice was made for me. My Grandparents walk in with a worried look in their eyes and I just wait for one of them to start talking. They know what I want to hear and they are the only ones with answers.
“After the alarm sounded I ran for the border as fast as I could, but the only one there was your Father. He looked terrible and he smelled like Rogues, he confirmed later that he had been fighting with Rogues. Something about his story didn’t sit right with me and went looking for your Mom, the first thing I found was their car.” Grandpa says as his hand runs up and down Grandma’s back.
Anyone can see that both my Grandparents have trouble reliving that night and they probably thought it was best not to inform anyone about the doubts they had about Dad’s story.
“It took me a little while to find your Mom and what I found was something I never wanted to see again, there were claw marks all over her body. I collapsed on the ground next to her and cried my heart out, if it hadn’t been for her scent I wouldn’t have known it was your Mom. What I am going to tell you has been kept a secret for all these years with a reason and I need you to hear me out.” Grandpa is almost pleading
with me.
“Your Mom was still alive, but not by much. She insisted on telling me what had happened, because she needed someone to know what kind of an Asshole your Father was.” Grandpa says as he looks at me and I know this is worse than anything I have ever witnessed
“He rejected her, just before he attacked her in Wolf form. The reason those Rogues were able to injure him so badly, is because she accepted the rejection before she lost consciousness. I know he told everyone he felt the bond break, but that is only because she accepted his rejection, not because she died. Telling me her story took to much and she has been in a come ever since.” Grandpa says.
The windows shake as Mace releases a mighty roar and second later Damon walks into the room, he has to release some of his aura to calm us down. “I won’t be far, just in case you need me again, Gillean.” Damon savs 1
before he walks out of my room and Tam Snally able to as what Grandna said.

“Dad attacked her in Wolf form?” I ask Grandpa, because if that is true I have even more questions.
“It is the only way he could defeat her. He knew she was a Lycan and she could kick his ass with both hands tied behind her back.” Grandma says with a small smile.
“Why didn’t you tell me after I got back? Or when I was little older?” I ask Grandpa, but I don’t think he has a real answer for me and I am not sure if I would have wanted to know. If Grandpa had this much trouble just telling me what happened, what would it have done to me if I had seen her after all those
years.
Suddenly all the monthly visits to Grandma’s childhood friend, they probably visited Mom on those
occasions too.
“I think you already figured out where your Mom is, it was the safest place I could think of.” Grandpa says as he sits down next to me. “I am sorry for not telling you, but I still fear every day that your Mom and her Lycan will give up. It has been nearly fourteen years, Gillean. There is still no change in her situation.” Grandpa says.
I just let him hold me as the tears stream down my cheeks and I know I need time to let this sink in, I need to come to terms with this somehow. “Thank you for telling me, I have some work to do and hopefully in the meantime I will be able to let this sink in. I tell Grandpa as Grandma hugs me, both of them seem to be a bit more relaxed than when they walked in here.
As the tablet is starting up I allow myself to think about Mom, something I don’t do often because it hurts 100 much. Today it seems to be a bit easier to think about her, to remember her singing while she was cooking or her voice while reading me a bedtime story I don’t have many memories of my Mom, but the ones I have are filled with love and laughter.
I have to shut the memories out to concentrate on the work in front of me, I leave Lyssa’s file for what it is and open the next file I see. The testimony of an Alpha that once visited White Rock Pack, he didn’t say a word during his visit and just kept his eyes and ears open. According to his testimony more than half of the females walked around with visible injuries and every now and then he had heard someone threaten female.
There were only two explanations for what he saw, but he was used that there were no Rogues around
and that the Pack hadn’t been attacked in almost two years. So it left the other more horrible reason, he saw evidence of abuse and the Pack’s leadership condoned it.
Reports on young males that were found ripped to pieces by a Wolf, but not a Rogue. Reports on females found in the same state, but none of those reports have a name to it. All written down as Jane Doe and John Doe, no missing person’s report to match with it and that leaves just one conclusion. They were all members of White Rock Pack.
Mace is growling in my head as he keeps walking in circles and if I look at him to long I will become dizzy.
I find testimonies of the Alphas that live near them, but nothing has concrete evidence against any member of White Rock Pack. Once they get the recordings from Alpha Mick, they will at least have one eye–witness and then I remember that Morgan told me there wouldn’t be a trial. White Rock Pack will be taken out without any questions asked and I hope I will get the chance to confront at least one of my family members.
Mace wants me to revisit the files on the Jane Does, because he needs to know if Yara might still be alive. Reluctantly I open de file with reports and I read through the description of the females, but I the end I am not sure if I should be relieved or not

Finished
None of the descriptions belonged to Yara, but I was confident that she was still alive after I looked at all
the pictures attached to the reports.
