They Banished Me from the PackโNow They're Howling for Me Back
When my mind-link request had been ignored by my parents for the twentieth time, I went to the Werewolf Council, clutching the report on silver dust corrosion in my hand.
โHello. Iโd like to renounce my pack identityโeffective immediately.โ
Ten minutes later, my parents burst in, dragging my adoptive younger sister, Elsa, with them, panic written all over their faces.
The door burst open with a bang, and my Beta father charged in like a storm. His fangs bared, claws twitching.
โYouโre nothing but a spoiled brat craving attention! Stop this pathetic act. Youโre an embarrassment to a Betaโs name!โ
My mother, a forensic specialist for the pack, immediately snatched the report from my hand. After a brief glance, she let out a cold sneer.
โYou faked this report just to get our attention? Youโve been a liar since you were a pup.โ
Elsa clung to both of them, tears in her eyes as she sobbed, โIโm sorry, Jenifer. Itโs my fault for holding the shifting ritual. But please... donโt lie to our parents just to make them feel guilty!โ
Blood was still pouring from my nose, but I wiped it away calmly and stood tall before the werewolf councilors once more.
โI havenโt had a real family for a long time. Pleaseโremove all my personal records from the pack. I just donโt want my funeralโscheduled for three days from nowโto be delayed.โ
