Lucy had been so worried throughout the day that Maria had noticed how disturbed she was . She had to make out time when the maids were out of the courts to discuss with Lucy and know what the problem was. "Lucy ",she called . "I have noticed since your arrival to the courts today that you have been so disturbed ,do you care to share with me what the matter is?", Maria asked. Lucy remained calm for a long time ,but she knew that the best person to share her problems with, was Maria because their relationship had been a tight and successful one from day one. "It's my daughter Irene , my lady. Of late she has been on my neck to tell her where her father is and I do not know what answers I am to give her ",Lucy said. " Come on Lucy, I told you from the onset that when she comes of age you should let her know about her fathers whereabouts, so she wouldn't have to learn of it afterwards ", Maria said. " I know my lady but I do not know how to bring myself to tell her that her father is actually out there with another woman for the past ten years and he also knows about her existence but doesn't care at all about her ", Lucy explained. "Even though Lucy, you still have to tell her the truth . She would be happy to hear the truth from you than keeping it a secret from her, that will only hurt her the more. You see ,when Karen started asking after her father, I took out my time to explain to he that he had died before she was born and although the truth really hurt her, but she has finally come to the reality that she doesn't have a father and I'm sure she would be fine after all . I think you should also do the same with Irene she's a strong girl and I'm sure when she hears the truth she would also feel much better believe me", Maria said. Lucy was so devastated after hearing all Maria had told her, Kelvin had been away from the pack since the last ten years. She had once gone after him and found out that he lived with his mate in a close by as a rogue. Maria had asked him to leave the pack ten years ago when he stated that he had already mated Samantha ,a girl from a distant pack who was also a rogue. Maria was so mad back then , when she discovered that Kelvin was only playing with Lucy's feelings. " How dare him get you pregnant and refuse to take you in as his mate. What does he take you for? a harlot? or a baby factory?", she exclaimed back then. Maria had initially planned to throw Kelvin into the dungeon for getting the Luna's personnel maid pregnant without any plans of taking responsibility. Lucy had begged her not to do so. She didn't want her child's father to be sent to prison. She told Maria that although she was quite sure that she loves Kelvin, but if he was so sure that he loved someone else, then she would respect his feelings and let him be. The decision was a very difficult one to make by Lucy, but she didn't want to force any love between her and Kelvin. " If he truly loves me , I'm sure he will return", she always consoled herself. Maria had only allowed Kelvin access to the pack ,only when he wanted to visit his child for a few days. After Kelvin left , he never showed up , even till the moment when Lucy gave birth. He never showed any form of concern for her and never got to see what his child looked like. Irene was two years old when, Lucy decided to go look for him, she got shocked when she met Samantha instead, who warned her to stay away from her relationship with Kelvin and never to ruin it. Lucy felt so embarrassed that she swore never to return in search for him again. Right now, Irene was on her neck to know her father and she had threatened Lucy so many times that she would escape if she wasn't told of her whereabouts. After listening to Maria that evening, Lucy knew that she was right and that it was best if she told Irene about it. When Lucy went home , Irene noticed how uneasy her mother was. " Mother why do you look so stressed and unease", Irene asked. Lucy exhaled heavily and asked Irene to take a sit next to her . She could feel the tension in Irene's eyes and she tried to force a smile in order not to make the little girl tensed. "Don't be scared Irene, I only want us to talk about your father", she said. Irene took a deep breath, while Lucy explained every details to her. Irene felt so bad for Lucy and it really hurt her that her father didn't come back for her. " Don't worry mother, I'm glad you've told me this. We will be fine without him", she said wiping off the hot tears that fell from her eyes. " Are you sure Irene", Lucy asked " Yes mother, I had always thought maybe father was dead and you didn't want me to know about it, but since he is alive and he knows that I exist and refuse to come for me. Then I'm fine with it", Irene said. They both hugged each other tightly while Lucy planted a kiss to her forehead, patting her back and telling her that they would be fine without him. They both got involved in a fun mother to daughter talk while Irene tells her of her crush Isreal. Lucy laughs and tells her to be careful with her relationship with him, she didn't want her daughter to be heartbroken or get involved in any relationship which would destroy her. Irene promises her to be careful.
