The Wolf In Me

Chapter 17: Part 2 The truth hurts

"Say, something son. Please," father pleaded. All I could do was stare back at him.

 

I found myself in a roller coaster of emotions.

 

"Korine raised you like you were her son. You see, she was going to have a child a few years before we met but unfortunately, he passed away before he was even born. As soon as she saw you she instantly fell in love with you and you helped her find the light she once lost. She has asked me not to tell you the truth. To her you were hers. I accepted her request as long as she kept you safe. That is why I never told you the real truth. But now since she broke the one promise I asked of her, I had the full right to let you know. Both your parents are alphas son."

 

I looked at Mei still not knowing what to say.

 

"What promise?" I blurted out looking at him sternly.

 

"For her to live with you here and help you with your alpha duties until you find your mate," he explained.

 

"I am simply feeling numb. All these years I thought my mother was human. I am still processing all this. Dad. I need some time to take it all in." That is all I could say.

 

He nodded and stood up from the chair he was sitting on and moved it back in the corner where it was originally.

 

"I will give you two some space then," he said before leaving.

 

I held a strong fist and punched through the wall, screaming out with rage.

 

"Why? Why me? Why all this?!" I yelled.

 

 

"Lulu," Mei said faintly, looking weakly at me.

 

"Mei. Oh...My Mei," I started sobbing both with joy to hear her voice and sad at the same time for knowing that there was a secret kept from me once again.

 

I rushed to her side, held her hand, placing my forehead against hers. "I was so afraid of losing you."

 

She chuckled as I lifted my head to look at her face, admiring her natural beauty.

 

"You can never get rid of me knowing how stubborn I can be."

 

I stared at her for a moment, then laughed at her joke, making me feel more at ease.

 

"How long have you been awake?" I asked now as I realised she might have heard it all.
