<b>Chapter </b><b>257 </b>
“I’ve <b>sat </b>in the same type of room you were in when several of my pack mates where used of gang raping several girls during a party that was <b>held </b>outside the territory. <b>My </b>sister had just moved away from the territory freeing my father up to start exposing me to the things <b>I </b>would have to deal <b>with </b><b>as </b>alpha<b>. </b><b>Since </b>several of our male warriors took the gamma females that were raped to the party, they had to go through the same interview process as <b>the </b><b>she</b>–wolves. The interview is a brutal process for both the used and the victim. Three council members take turns asking the questions. The questions are often the same only worded differently and they are delivered rapidly giving the person no time to think about the question. Their interview tactics resemble that of a criminal interrogation and it is not something that I would allow any child to go through. Lucas would barely be able to handle <b>it </b>but Melody?”
1 stop for a moment, shaking my head as I hold her tight.
“Their interview techniques are meant to scare and confuse. It’s done purposely so anyone that’s lying can not keep their story straight but for a child as young as Melody, such interview tactics are extremely traumatic. If she’s not already traumatized by the rape itself, which can take time to develop, she <b>will </b>be by the time the council is done with her, While it may appear that I’m giving favoritism to my son by keeping it out of the council it’s not that at all. I
don’t want Melody to be hurt any more than she already has.”

<b>I </b>watch as Annabel opens her mouth, wanting to say something but the words have escaped her.
“Thank you, alpha.” Roger finally manages to speak.
“For what?” I ask sincerely as I wasn’t expecting this to be epted so easily.
“It seems that I thought of you differently than this. That you would put the needs of your son before any member of the pack.”
“For that, you would need to thank my father as he’s the one that raised my siblings and I with the understanding that being the alpha’s children doesn’te with perks but with great responsibility. Alpha Brian never shied away from an opportunity to make an example out of us. Something along the lines of “if my own pup gets this what do you think will happen to you?‘ type of deal.
–
I started that way as a father but it did a lot of damage to my rtionship with Damian so while my expectations are still very high for my own kids, I don’t set out to make an example unless I’m absolutely certain of the facts. I gave Lucas arge penalty based on the phone conversation I heard before either of you came home. Based on that alone, I feared Melody had been raped and penalized him severely so to answer your question. Lucas has been ced on a three day house arrest where he will not be allowed out of his room without supervision. All dating will be chaperoned and there will be no overnight st with females, both of those will be until he’s eighteen. Further research into what happened to Melody specifically, as well as his past trysts with other girls will determine additional penalties. Because of Cole, I have given Lucas an opportunity to avoid a second spanking. He has until the end of his house arrest to give me the names of every girl that he’s had sex with.”
“A second spanking?” Annabel asks, confused.
“Yes, he was spanked by Beta Patrick before dinner this evening for assaulting Cole. He has also received the additional penalty of being removed from the prospect program as a trainer for the same reason.”
“If he assaulted Cole, why would Cole request a lighter penalty for his assault on Melody?” Roger asks next.
“Cole feels that he was wrong to tell me about Melody the way that he did. Instead of being able to speak to me privately, Lucas kept poking him in such a way that Cole essentially threw it in his face. Something that would likely result in significant penalties on him at his home pack. <b>As </b>I said before, Cole is aplicated situation that I’m dealing with the best way I know how. Right now the biggest thing I need from the two of you is your support of Melody.
Getting back to her needs, when you leave the hospital tomorrow you will have an appointment scheduled two weeks from now to start counseling with Dr. Richards. She will advise you on how often Melody needs toe and if she rmends family counseling to deal with the mental health aspect of what has happened. If Metody is indeed ovting, then you will receive a ten day course of the same medication that she will be given in her IV. It will be a lower dose so side effects won’t be as bad. She will need to take it twice a day. If the rape exam discovers any tears than the after tie medication will be used to seal and help heal the injury and she will be ced on amoxicillin. Simr to the anti pregnancy medication arger first dose will go in her IV and she will be sent home with a ten day course to be taken twice a day. She will need to be seen by Jessa or Ang in two weeks. Now, if everyone is satisfied with the n of action and doesn’t have any questions, I feel it’s time to head to the medical wing.”
Everyone appears to agree, nodding their heads silently as I stand from my chair. Melody <b>wraps </b>her arms around me tight with a light whimper escaping her throat. <b>I </b>pause after <b>I </b>stand.
“I am truly sorry Lucas did this to you. I promise you, Ang will take really good care of you. You’re not going to feel or remember anything about <b>the </b>
<b>exam</b>.
<b>“</b>I’m scared<b>.</b>” She finally whimpers.

<b>I </b>know you are and it’s okay to <b>be </b>scared. I promise <b>I’m </b><b>going </b>to take care of you. Can you trust me to do that<b>?</b><b>” </b>
<b>“</b><b>I </b>don’t want to be alone. Even if I’m sleeping, I’m scared.” She squeezes me even harder as she starts crying again.
<b>“</b><b>You </b>won’t be alone Melody. Both your parents <b>can </b>be with you while Ang does the exam and ultrasound. They can even sleep in the wing <b>with </b>you. <b>I </b>highly encourage <b>at </b>least one of them to do both.”
<b>I </b>speak a little louder to ensure they hear me<b>. </b>
“Of course I’m going to stay, Melody.” Annabel finally reassures her daughter. “Your dad will stay until you’re asleep. He has to get back home to Adam <b>and </b>Kevin but I’ll be with you until you leave the hospital tomorrow.”
<b>I’ve </b>slowly started walking towards my office door, holding it open for everyone to exit, making our way to the hospital wing.

I have a feeling that Lucas needs a lot more. If I sassed my father I would be spanked with a belt and made to stay in my room sitting in a chair. In my case I would have no r…
