Chapter 55 The Dark Witch

“Have you thought that perhaps the people who murdered your parents wanted to conceal your mate from you so you would be f0rced to take a chosen mate?” Lexi said suddenly through a mouthful of food as she plonked herself down on a chair next to them.

Adam frowned.

“But why? Taking a chosen mate isn’t a rare occurrence. Sometimes an Alpha doesn’t find his true mate and not having an heir weakens the Pack, so it’s seen as a necessary evil in most cases.”

Lexi nodded slowly, as she sat forward and rested her chin on her hands with a thoughtful expression.

“True, but have you considered that a concealment curse would be the best fit because they also wanted to conceal the ident*ity of your parent’s k*il*lers?”

Lord Brarthroroz chuckled.

“Very clever, Lexi… yes… it’s entirely possible. Perhaps the k*il*lers intended to have someone of their choosing take a place at your side as a chosen mate. It would make sense. You were present when your parents were k*il*led?” Lord Brarthroroz asked suddenly very interested. “I’ve already said I don’t remember!” Adam exclaimed loudly in frustration as his hand tightened around Ann’s. The silence extended between them for a while before his shoulders sagged and Adam sighed heavily.

“I don’t remember… but the Elders say that I was present when they died. I was unharmed but dazed. I spent almost a month in an allied Packs hospital as shortly after my parent’s death, the Pack was attacked. Our old allies sent reinf0rcements and ensured the Pack’s territory was held, but… the losses were devastating. My Beta’s father ran the Pack until I was old enough to take over but… it was a mess when I finally took the oath.”
