Elsie smiled at me sadly.
âIâve used some magic on our daughterâs memories.
If I canât come back, sheâll only remember that she has loving parents and that her mother died early.
This way, she wonât have a grudge against you.
Eduardo, I hope youâll cooperate with me and not expose this lie to her.
â
I didnât say anything.
Elsie continued, âDonât worry.
Iâll come back and accept whatever punishment the pack deems fit for me as soon as I finish this matter.
Before that, please be nice to our daughter.
If you donât want to keep her, Iâll take her away from you.
â
I didnât believe a word she said because I had been taught that all Swamp Witches were evil and couldnât be trusted.
But out of fear, I could only nod in agreement.
âOkay, I promise.

Debraâs POV:
I listened to the whole story, tears rolling down my cheeks.
Now, it all made sense.
No wonder my memories of my motherâs death were always so vague.
It turned out that those memories were all fake, a gesture of my motherâs love for me.
She didnât even want me to remember that my father had so cruelly imprisoned her.
She was afraid that Iâd hate him for that.
However, despite this, my father still managed to ruin our relationship, that selfish man.
My father had promised my mother that heâd treat me well, but he had done just the opposite.
The moment Marley accused me of doing something I didnât, he chose to side with her and even humiliated me by insulting my mother.
Later, he went against my motherâs will and ruthlessly drove me out of the pack.
As a result, Leonel hunted me down and even went so far as to kill Vicky in cold blood.

I glared at the selfish man in front of me, my voice trembling with anger as I shouted, âYou didnât believe my mother when she told you the truth, and then you refused to believe me.
My mother was so blind to have fallen in love with a bastard like you!â
âIâm really sorry, Debraâ¦â My father hung his head low, too wrought with guilt to even look me in the eye.
âI wasnât thinking straight back then.
Itâs all my fault.
I refused to see the truth clearly.
In fact, I only figured everything out recently.
Debra, please give me a chance to make it up to you.
I swear Iâll do everything I can to make amends, as I promised your mother.
â
âNever!â
As my father tried to approach, bad memories of the past suddenly filled my mind.
In a trance, I saw my mother crying helplesslyâ¦
âStay away from me!â
I clamped my hands over my ears and shouted at the top of my Lungs.
