The Dark Side Of Fate

83 A Clearer Picture
~Leo~
My mouth was dry, so I drank the water and composed myself, ready to listen to the rest. I dared not interrupt.
"Because of this progress, there was a law that we would only mate with Alphas to have strong alphas in our bloodline like the Volkovs.Although Patrick died before his grandchildren from Rudolph got their wolves Sophia lived long and tried to ensure they married Alphas.Sophia passed away, and Rudolph he focused on his son and his grandchildren and ensured they continued doing so as his parents wanted.That was why everyone in our lineage mated with an alpha.All except you, Leo." He said, and I remained fixed in my chair.
I was glad that Sophia was a distant cousin of Amelia's ancestor, or else it would have been weird.I held my tongue and listened.
My father told me about Gregory and Adrian's agreement, how Gregory had broken that agreement, and everything that Dimitri did to wipe out the Volkovs.He said the story the exact way everyone that knew it narrated it.
"When the Stepanovs had to flee from the North, our family and the Sullivan Family helped them escape,"He said.
I was surprised by how the Sullivans got into the story.
"Are the Sullivans the same Sullivans that moved to the North and had an issue with Maurice?" I asked my father, and he nodded.
' Yes, they are the same Sullivans.They were the descendants of the beta son the Stepanov abandoned.The boy and his mother moved to the South to settle down, and that was when they adopted that last name just like we adopted Albert.The Sullivans are Stepanov descendants, while we are Volkov descendants with Stepanov genes," My father explained.
That made a lot of sense why Susan recovered from silver so quickly.
Things had just gotten complicated.
Susan was a distant relative of mine.But Sylvester was a closer relative because Patrick was his ancestor.
"My father and Grey Sullivan's father ensured the Stepanovs could settle and find homes in the East and South.My father had many businesses then, but he spent all his money making sure Dimitri did not win, even though Dimitri was more of our relative than the Stepanovs.The Sullivans did the same in the South.Before my father passed away, he told me to work with the Stepanovs and always ensure they were fine.I was to keep their secret and ensure they were protected.Grey Sullivan and I worked with the Stepanovs, Erik, Yuri, Ilya and Mikhail to ensure they were fine.Yuri then had a bright idea of starting a family group of all the Stepanovs to help revive the bloodline and start our lives instead of hiding in the dark.
Grey and I refused to join because we didn't think it was a wise idea, and we saw it as corruptible because Yuri wasn't a nice guy.Yuri also had reservations about me because I was a Volkov.By then, they had money and did not need us anymore.
The only reason they remained dependent on us was that they could not mix thoroughly because of their apparent features, so they often asked us for help with certain things, and we would help when we could.
Maurice found some transfers and investigated Grey and Nicolas Sullivan.
He had suspected an underground network like a cult was after his Lordship but could never prove it.I did not know that was what Yuri was doing then.I honestly thought Maurice was paranoid.
