I put my hand out and said, “Okay, give me the registration fee.” $50,000. Now.”
“That much! You should be thankful that we’re letting you spend your own money. Don’t push it!”
I said with a sneer, “Since when do I need your permission to spend my own money?” What do you give to this house each month?”
My parents’ faces turned red. “Do we really need to talk about this as a family?””
They gave $3,000 a month, and I gave $50,000.
They didn’t even get me a gift to change.
I paid off $500,000 in debt for my family and booked a trip to Italy that cost a lot.
My combat pay helped this family live comfortably.
Other members of the pack saw it and whispered that this family lived off their daughter’s money.
Maybe she should help them out since they all loved their biological daughter so much.
Let’s find out how long they could live the way they do on the money from a non-shifting Omega.
George stepped up and put his arm around Diane’s shoulders, which made my wolf snarl.
He smiled at her and said, “Maybe I could help with the tour plans. I know some great places in Italy that aren’t in the usual tourist guides.”
I couldn’t believe it when I saw him. The training gear he was wearing, which I had bought him last month, cost more than he had ever made in his life.
Diane’s adoptive parents came in soon after and started talking about which tour options wouldn’t be “good enough” for them.
Diane’s adoptive mother said, “We’ll need to upgrade these accommodations,” making a face at the 5-star hotel bookings I had carefully chosen. “It’s so… normal.
My dad nodded eagerly and said, “Whatever you want!” Now this is your family’s trip.
I cleared my throat and said, “This is my trip.” All the reservations have my name on them.
Everyone stopped moving. They hadn’t thought about that small detail.
First, Mother got better. “Well, about that… We think it would be best if you gave Diane all of the reservations. After all, she is the one who will inherit from us.
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “You want me to give her my trip that cost a thousand dollars? The trip I almost died for?”
“It’s the least you could do after all we’ve done for you,” my dad said without looking at me.
George stepped forward and looked away from me. “Scarlett, think about it.” It would mean a lot to everyone.
Robert joined in, looking serious. “Please, sis? For the family?”
I looked at the faces of the people I had given everything for and loved unconditionally. Now they wanted to throw me away for a stranger with the right blood.
“Of course Scarlett will give the trip to Diane,” Mother said quickly. She loves her family more than anything else.
“Scarlett, go make dinner,” Mom said before I could say anything. You should cook a big meal today to get ready for our trip.
I couldn’t stand it any longer. I got up to leave. “Have fun without me.” I’m going out to dinner.
“We’re leaving tomorrow. Where are you headed? Did you pack your things?”my father growled.
“Are you Omegas so weak now that you can’t even pack your own bags?””I lost it.”
George tried to catch up with me. “Scarlett, wait—”
I turned to him and said, “Shut up.” My wolf’s eyes flashed.
When I left, my dad and George were both speechless.
I went to a spa by myself and spent $1,000 on a beauty treatment. Then I put $10,000 on a gift card.
This she-wolf had money to spend because she didn’t have a big family to take care of.
I stayed out until the moon was high, and when I got back, everything was quiet.
There wasn’t a single message, call, or text from my pack while I was gone. They were all sleeping soundly. As soon as I opened the door, my wolf snarled angrily inside me.
