"At that time, it was an emergency. No one thought of it, and no one had the time to do so," I explained with difficulty.
"No, no, no, this doesn't make sense." Aunt Carol wagged her finger at me. "Even if no one reacted at that time, what happened afterward? Robert could have marked you against your will. He wouldn't give up so easily. And he didn't give you any trouble during the week you were locked up. So why didn't your parents do something about it?"
I was speechless.
"The only possibility is that they couldn't do it. Or that your second mate prevented them from doing it. What kind of identity would make an Alpha's successor in a powerful pack this afraid, and what kind of identity would make one's parents unable to protect their daughter? I can see that your parents love you very much, but they did nothing about your loss of freedom," Aunt Carol said.
"No, that's not it." I wanted to defend myself.
