Chapter 6: Why are you doing this to me!
Inez had been listening to the same words over and over again, to the point that she was about to go crazy. And this was all because Dominic and the rest turned their backs on her.
Over and over again, she had questioned herself a million times. Why? Why did they hate her? What happened that made them hate her?
She bit her lip and turned to face her mother before saying to her, "Do you really think that? Do you really think that it’s my fault? Then I will go and tell them the truth; let’s see if they will still blame me once they realise where I was and what I was doing."
No sooner did she say those words than Maria’s expression changed. She rushed over to where Inez was standing and yelled, "No, you can’t!"
Of course, she couldn’t because the fact that her daughter was a half-siren was the biggest regret and shame for Maria Sinclair.
She looked at her and said sternly, "You will not do such a thing. I have had enough of all the trouble you are bringing to our house, and I will not have you ruin your father’s and my reputation as well."
Inez scoffed. "Of course, who cares that I must pay for your well-maintained reputation to stay clean by being the pack’s punching bag, right? Are you really this blind mom? Or do you simply not take me as your daughter?
She spread her hands in front of her and showed the muck and grime sticking to her clothes and hair to her mother. "Can’t you see this? All you care about is your reputation, your love life with your mate and how your son is doing but what about me? You know that I was not in the wrong but you won’t let me tell the pack the truth because you fear your reputation getting damaged."
"I am not going to let you ruin Ricky," she said, pretending as if she could not hear a thing that Inez had said. "You could have simply avoided all the trouble if you had just apologised instead of maintaining that you did nothing wrong and made our alpha angry at you."
