Chapter 127

“Why does she get everything?” Shannon screamed from downstairs, and I had to muffle my laughter. She had been screaming since she got home. She found out that I was getting a dorm while she had to come home, like it would make that much of a difference.

There was a knock on the door, and I got up to open it. Morgan stood there. “Amy, can you please come downstairs? I want to have a family meeting.” I nearly lost it right then, so I just nodded. He turned around, jaw clenched, and headed downstairs towards his screaming daughter.

I entered the room to find Shannon punching the couch cushion over and over. I snorted as I walked over to one of the chairs that framed the couch. Morgan shot me a glare, and I just raised my eyebrow at him. I sat down and waved my hand. “Let’s get this show on the road.”

Morgan shot me another glare as he walked away. “I told you not to fucking touch me.” My mother’s snarl came from the kitchen.

“I’m sorry. Please,” Morgan begged, and honestly, it was pathetic.

I heard a smash, and then she stomped out and over to me. She calmed a little as she settled next to me. She looked over to Shannon, who was still screaming and attacking the pillow.

I gestured to Shannon. “I don’t think Shannon here is in the mood for a family meeting, Morgan. She seems… busy.”

Morgan snarled and grabbed Shannon, spinning her around and pushing her down onto the couch. “Sit.” Shannon snarled back, but settled.

“What now?” She leaned into his face. “What the hell is this?”

“A family meeting.” Morgan pushed her back and sat next to her.

Even Shannon laughed. “What the fuck? Why?”

“I’m assuming it’s because of you.” I rolled my eyes and looked at my mother. “I don’t understand why I’m here.”

My mom looked down at me and snorted. “I don’t know why either of us is here.” We both turned to look at Morgan, and she opened her hands, as if she was saying, what do you want?

Morgan sighed and looked between us and Shannon. “Amy, you are both starting university on Monday.”

Shannon glared at me, and I flipped her off. “See daddy, she doesn’t care.”

“Shan, just stop.” Morgan wiped at his eyes and then refocused back on us. “You two are starting on Monday, and so is Brandon.” He started again.

“Please don’t tell me this is all about Brandon?” I howled in laughter. “For fuck's sake. Shannon. Look at me when I tell you this.” I waited until she finally met my eyes. “I do not, now or ever, want that pathetic piece of shit alpha boyfriend you have. You can keep him.” I stood up and went to leave.

“Please sit down. That isn’t what this is about.”

I huffed and dropped back to the seat. “Then what is it about, Morgan? I’m tired of dealing with this bullshit.”

“Amy,” Morgan chastised me, like I was a child. His child.

“You aren’t my father, Morgan. So how about you stop the act and just get on with it? What do you want?”

Morgan leaned over and placed his elbows on his knees. “Shannon saw your papers on the table. She saw your food card, your dorm room, everything.”

“So what?” I looked at my mom, and I saw her wince a little. She mouthed the word ‘sorry’ at me, but I just shrugged. “What does that have to do with her?”

Shannon shot me an ugly look, but I just shook my head. She lifted a hand, pointed at me, and turned to her father. “See.”

Morgan dropped his head into his hands. “Why did you get a dorm?” He looked up at us and dropped his hands.

“I got her a dorm so that she would have space away from here.” My mother jumped in.

“Why?”

“Do you really have to ask?” My mother crossed her arms.

“Obviously,” Morgan sighed.

“Because of your daughter.” My mom wrapped her arm around my shoulder.

“What about Shannon?”

I snorted. “Oh my god, Morgan. You can’t be that stupid.” I shook my head in disgust.

“What did I do?” Shannon shot out.

I tossed my head and then stared at them. I lifted my hand and counted on my fingers. “You stole my clothes. You used my scent and my power to trick your boyfriend. You have gone out of your way to make every day at school absolutely miserable.” She scoffed. “You screech every day, all day. When you fuck your boyfriend, your fake moans keep me up half the night. I honestly don’t want to be around you, and neither does Nix. You entered her den, and you contaminated it.”
