Alpha Niall And His Lost Mate

I pulled away from her. The hurt in her eyes was evident after my actions, but it wasn't because of her, it was because of what she said.

"What?" I questioned out loud.

Victoria told me she never knew her dad, and she only knew mom when she was an adult. She also said she didn't know anything about our dads. So I was just confused as to what she actually knows from what she doesn't know.

This was big. This was a huge part of my questions from the moment I was old enough to understand that my dad was dead. Nobody ever cared to tell me how he died, so why now?

"If you will just listen please," she pleaded softly, and I simply nodded as I settled beside her again. My heart raced in anticipation. Victoria's dad killed mine? For what? For mom maybe?

The million of questions in my mind seemed endless as I waited for Victoria to start, and I could already feel myself getting a headache.

"Remember when I always told you about our aunt Sophie? You never knew her, but she was the one who raised me," she started, and I nodded in response, remembering quite clear the numerous times she would tell me about our late aunt. "Aunt Sophie was mom's younger sister. When I was one-year-old or maybe two, my dad, Micheal, thought he saw a wolf change into a man."

I knitted my brows in confusion. Victoria, mom and her dad were all human living in the human town. So the odds of seeing a wolf was zero to none. That wolf must've been careless.

"When he saw this 'alleged' wolf, he became obsessed, and one day he got up and moved to the woods to be 'closer' and mom followed him. The 'plan', as mom told me twelve years ago, was for them to be back within a month of leaving. She didn't want to let my dad go alone, she was his wife after all."

"But you were her daughter. That counts for something," I argued. I loved my mom, but growing up and learning that she didn't raise Victoria, never sat right with me.

She shrugged, but she didn't look hurt about it. "Well one month became two, and two became ten, and aunt Sophie knew they weren't coming back. The first time I saw mom was when I already met Luka, and was introduced to his crazy world, learning that he 'imprinted' on me, a mere human, and all the wolfy stuff. Luka's Gamma was actually the one to find her, since he had mad tracking skills, both wolf and internet.

"I was skeptical at first, because I grew up hating my parents for leaving, but I needed answers too. And one of the answers I needed was who Micheal really was, because I learnt at Brightwater Pack that he used to be one of the most wanted men in the land, and he wasn't even a wolf. He didn't only kill your dad Zoey, he killed other innocent wolves because of his obsessions and crazy theories, trying to test them."

"Oh my gosh that's awful."

"So when Lincoln found mom, I just had to know. But that's the day I met you for the first time." She smiled at the memory, and even I remembered clearly the first time I saw 'sister VIctoria', as I used to call her, when I was only six years old.

Mom always told me that I had a sister, and that one day when I grow up, I should never stop looking for her. But fate brought us together.

"Knowing about you changed everything. At first, my intentions were to meet mom for the first time in 20 years, get my answers and walk out of her life like she did me without looking back. But when I found out about you, I knew I could never. When I introduced you to Luka, he told me that you were definitely a werewolf. To say I was shocked was an understatement, Zoey. How could my sister be a wolf when mom is human? But Luka clarified that once one parent has the werewolf gene, then the child would be a wolf too, no doubt about it, no half breed or anything. Just a full bred wolf.

"This, again, changed everything. This told me that mom knew about wolves too, since she had a child with one. So, Luka invited you and mom to live with us at Brightwater Pack, and we approached mom about it with caution. I mean, even if she didn't know, she would've eventually, right?" She paused to meet my eyes. "And that's when the whole truth came out."

I nodded slowly as I braced myself for the truth. Just this morning, I was boasting about how I didn't want to learn anything more.

Now look at me.

I could literally hear my heart thumping against my chest.

"Mom told Luka and I about how the years being with Micheal were like. He got more and more obsessed with wolves, and she didn't believe. Eventually his crazy got too much, and she tried to leave. But she saw a huge wolf in the woods that day.

"He chased her all the way back to the cabin. So yes, she did try to come back home to me, even if it was a few years later. But when that wolf chased her and she ran back to the cabin where she and Micheal had been living, Micheal convinced her that it wouldn't be safe if she came back home to me, because the wolves are after her now too."

"That's... that's.." I didn't even know what to say. That was a sorry excuse.

"I know," she agreed with a shrug. "The wolf was only giving them a warning, but Micheal didn't heed to it, he only continued. Eventually, mom recognized ALL his crazy, and he would blame his failed attempts on her, so she finally left. By then, I was well into my teenage years, so mom never came home to me. She moved on with her life. That's when she met Reagan, your dad. "

I shuffled closer to her, finally getting to hear this part.

"Mom said Reagan was on a rush to get out of town. At first she wouldn't know why, but you and I both know that because he was a rogue, he never stayed at one place." I nodded in understanding.
