CHAPTER THREE – ENTITLEMENT
All wolven parents raise their children (especially their male children) with the hope that they will become an Alfa. Which is why the first rule in (if such a book actually exists) The Wolven Parenting Guide, How to Raise an Alfa is: Encourage your children to develop a healthy sense of self-entitlement. And the quickest way to make any child believe they deserve everything is to give them everything.
Luke was very bright and a quick learner. So it was perfectly understandable that he learned this lesson well. One of the consequences of his early training was an inability to wait patiently. Especially to get something he wanted. He had never had to ask his parents more than twice for anything before it was given to him. Until now, and the more his parents refused to let him play with Sofia the more determined he became to get his way.
Everyday for two weeks Luke begged his mother to see her. He even went so far as to ask if he could hold her during church. Sherman was set to say yes but changed his mind. As did Luke after Vivian asked them…"And what if you drop her".
He promised he would be nice. Then he promised he would be very nice. Then he promised that wouldn't hit or yell. He even explained to his father that his sisters told that he couldn't boss her around had to ask her to do what he wanted. And although it would be hard (because he was the boss at play dates) he was sure he could ask her nicely. In the end he got his way. However, neither his begging nor his promises had anything to do with it. It was Destiny.
