Chapter Twelve

The next day, Levi and I made plans to drive into Happy, the closest city nearby, and visit my father’s killers at the prison there.

I hadn’t thought about what I would say once I came face-to-face with those evil men from my youth; the ones that changed my life forever. But I knew it was something I had to do. I needed to forgive them—for myself—and for my future. After all, I was a mother now. And how could I teach my children to forgive those who offended them if I couldn’t do it myself? I glanced over at Levi, as he pulled into the prison parking lot, and squeezed his hand. I was so grateful he had agreed to come with me, actually insisting on it. I felt better knowing he was by my side. Nothing would hurt me with my wolfman in tow—this I knew for sure. He had to pull some strings so he could stay with me. Normally they didn’t allow it, but he promised to behave, and being the alpha of the most powerful wolf pack in the whole southeastern part of America didn’t hurt if you needed to call in some favors.

With my lips overly and psychotically moistened with lip balm, I squared my shoulders, took in a deep breath, and followed Levi into the building.

The first man I visited, the one that I hit in the eye with the remote control, and the one who actually pulled the trigger and killed my dad, wasn’t at all surprised to see me. He was a tall man probably in his fifties now, with thinning hair and a full beard. He started the conversation by saying he had expected me sooner. He was actually relieved when I told him I forgave him, and thanked me, saying he was sorry things had turned out the way they had. It seems he had found God only months after being sentenced.

The second man, the one who had his manhood damaged by my aggressive kneecap, was also relieved to have my forgiveness, although at first he was shocked to see me and took a few minutes to recover before we could begin our conversation. I was surprised when he actually cried. He had had a change of heart after the birth of his grandson, Luke, who he talked about most of our short time together.

These men had surprised me and turned their lives around for the better. The first man, Ralph Connors was actually engaged to a woman he met on the Internet, and was planning the wedding for after his release in two years. And the second man, Josh Davies was getting his degree in psychology. But it was the third man that I was most nervous about meeting—and he was my next stop—Jason Franco.

I’m not sure what I expected to see when he came into the room, but the threatening smirk on his scarred face was not it. His hair was still dark but long and greasy, and he needed a shave.
