Chapter 78
Siblings
“Cami, what did you do…?!” Rita said within herself as she stared suspiciously at Cami, who
sat quietly, watching the situation unfold.
The air was very heavy, with Roxanne''s shocking discovery, Cami''s unknown motive, and Rita''s

position.
“Cami, why did you…”
As Rita was about to question her best friend as to why she told Roxanne the truth, thetter
would not let herplete her query.
“Just answer me, Rita. I couldn’t care less about what Cami said. What I care about is what you
have to say about it!” Roxanne stated.
Rita looked into Roxanne’s passionate eyes and also felt a tinge of guilt seeping within her. It was
time toe clean. She knew she had no other choice, but Rita was still scared. Scared that Roxanne
would feel too betrayed to want to remain friends with her, scared that she would make Roxanne have
second thoughts about the decision she made earlier, and look at her previous actions in a wrong light.
Still, she had to say the truth to her. Roxanne was her friend, she wasn’t going to lie, especially
when she didn’t know just how much Cami told her.
“It’s true. Asher and I are siblings. We share the same blood, that is the blood of the previous
Alpha of the Rockwood Pack. That being said, we have different mothers.” Rita exined.
“So it was true… But why didn’t you say anything Rita? We’ve had many chances to talk about
Asher, and about you… Yet why didn’t you ever make the connection known to me?” Roxanne
croaked, a tinge of hurt could be heard from her tone.
“Could you give us the room, Cam?” Rita said to Cami, with an irritated look.
Cami didn’t budge and merely looked surprised by Rita’s action.
“Now, Cami! I mean it!” Rita emphasised.
“Fine, fine…” Cami sighed, rising from her seat with a dejected look.
“Why don''t you let her stay? Isn’t she your best friend?” Roxanne scoffed.
“Not now Roxanne. I’ll exin everything as soon as she leaves the room.” Rita said with a serious
demeanour.
She had a frown on her face, showing she meant business. Cami, in contrast, was smiling. This
made Rita look even more annoyed.
“It’s fine. I’ll be waiting in one of the rooms. Fortunately, I still know the way around your home.”
Cami muttered.
“No. You’ll have to leave this house. I’m no fool Cami. The distance of any room in this house is
nothing when your wolf ears are involved” Rita kept looking suspicious.
“Jeez, what are trying to insinuate Rita? That I would demean myself to eavesdropping on your
conversation with Roxanne. Is there really anything worth my time in it?” Cami asked .
“I don’t know… Is there?” Rita eyed.
“Oh? I see. It’s fine then.” Camille resigned, sighing dejectedly. She walked over to where her
boots were hung. They were ck, the deep kind.
She wore her boots with ease and smiled once again at the two other young women in the room.
“Just so you know, I only told Roxanne because she questioned my rtionship with you and then
Asher. I didn’t think it was that big a deal. Besides, she was bound to find out the connection on her
own soon anyway” Cami said as she walked out the door.
Rita maintained her stern and unchanged expression, still adamant in Cami leaving the house.
Roxanne could do nothing but stare at Rita as she did such to her ‘best friend''.
It made Roxanne wonder how far Rita would go when it came to regr friends if she treated best
friends that way.
Finally, Cami left the house and closed the door behind her.
Rita sighed after she saw Cami leaving her sight. She used one hand to support herself, cing
it in her hip, while she ced the other on her head as she brooded on matters Roxanne could only
guess.
“Perhaps I was too harsh on her…” She considered it.
However, Rita was sure she made the right call. Cami didn’t know about Roxanne''s engagement
with Asher, and she was not allowed to. It was Asher''s business and the affair of the Rockwood Pack
until he decided to make it public. Sending her out was the only way to preserve the information that
would be spilled in her conversation with Roxanne.
“Rita…”
