Betrayed by my sisterclaimed by my mates brother

Today is Alana, my daughter's birthday and I'm so excited about what the day has to bring. My beautiful sweetheart will be turning eight this year and as the perfectionist that I was, everything had to be in order.

I was standing at the great and grand pack hall that was going to be used for this joyous ceremony and my maid, Brielle, was standing by my side watching me while I worked.

"Brielle can you hand over that balloon? And I thought I asked for blue and purple color? Why am I seeing red?" I questioned my maid authoritatively.

"Oh I'm sorry ma'am," Brielle said and kept her face down.

"Why are you keeping your face down? Hurry up and go change these things. This is not a toddler slumber party, this is an eight birthday. I want everything to be perfect," I said as I handed back the pink balloons to her and asked for other ones.

"Yes ma'am I'm doing that instantly. Please hold on," she said and rushed to the door.

Immediately after Brielle left my sweetheart came into the room from the door. She just woke up from sleep.

"Good morning mommy," Alana my daughter greeted me and came forward to me for a hug.

She looked rough. Her eyes were still swollen and her hair was distorted. Oh! This child. Had she not warned her not to come down stairs if she was not organized enough. She had to understand that she was no more a little girl and she must start acting like a growing lady.

"Alana! You are still in your nightwear," I said as I returned the hug and grumpily freed myself from her sharply after.

"Mom, come on! I'm at home! You don't expect me to always be dressed like a princess," Alana retorted.

"Yes you are a princess and you must never be caught slipping. Anyways, did you see your father when you were coming down from the hallway?" I asked my daughter desperately.

Lately he has been cold to me. We slept on the same bed for weeks and he wouldn't want to touch me. Anytime I tried to touch him he would say he was tired.

He always came back late and claimed it was meetings at work keeping him and when he was at home, he would say he wanted to patrol around the area with his beta because he smelt some vampires around.

Anyways today will be his daughter's eighteenth birthday and there was no way he would miss it. Not even for the world. She was daddy's princess and only child.

I did not care if he had any kind of feelings towards me, I dismissed it as him being too loaded with work and having pressure put on him recently.

"No mom, I have not seen him around here. I waited for my yearly early morning birthday surprise from him and I could not find it," Alana answered me with a gleam of sadness in her eyes.

I did not want to disappoint her so I changed the topic.

"Oh my baby is a year older today. You know, you'll always be my little girl. I love you more than life itself."

Tears were streaming from my eyes.

"Aww thanks mom I love you too, forever," Alana said as she pecked me in the cheek.

"Alana dear, we are an hour from the party. Let me supervise the maids in the kitchen."

Alana left to go to her room and I walked to the kitchen.

The party had started and my daughter's friends were here and everything was set. I was dressed up looking very cute and I went to greet other alphas that came from other packs. Something was missing. What could it be? It was my alpha. He was supposed to be here.

The party had progressed for three hours. I ignored him coming late because I thought he would make a grand entrance here and Alana had started to be disappointed. Angry, I barged out of the hall to call him.

"Pick up, Ethan. What is the problem? Pick up," I said as I called him. After the tenth missed call I went to the office to see what was happening for my eyes.
