Chapter 415
I was nervous, I felt a little sick at the thought of telling Carter. Why? I wasn’t sure. It’s not like it was going to change anything. But it was news he didn’t know.
He was in the dark just like I had been most of my life.
“I feel sick”. I spoke.
“Do you want to tell me first before Carter gets here?”. Jake asked.
“My mom was a wolf p>
“Eh?”. He made a face.
A laugh fell from my lips because all this shit was crazy. If I didn’t laugh about it, I’d cry or I’d drive myself insane.
“And I think George is my grandfather p>
“Wait what p>
“Now do you agree that everything’s a mess?”. I sighed.
“Not really babe. The balls still in your court on what you want to do. Why didn’t you tell me when we got home from your dads?”. He asked.
“Honestly?”. I chewed the inside of my cheek. “I needed time to process it first and I guess I just wanted to keep it to myself for a little bit p>
“That’s a lot to process”. He sighed. “And I’m guessing Carter doesn’t know about George p>
“I don’t think so”. I shrugged.
“Know what about George?”. His voice reached my ears and that sicky feeling returned. “What’s going on p>
“Things are so messed up Carter”. I glanced at Jake before continuing. “I think George is my grandfather”. “What?”. He made a face. “That doesn’t make any sense. Who put that in your head p>
“That’s what I thought to, but my mom was a wolf which would explain why I’m a full breed and not half p>
I could see the clocks turning, his eyebrows furrowed. “But my mom, that would mean they didn’t share the same dad p>
“See messed up right p>
“What the fuck”. He frowned. “I’m guessing it was your dad that told you this p>
I nodded. ‘He didn’t tell me everything because according to him it’s not his story to tell p>
“And that’s why grans here. It also explains why I got a call from my mom telling me she’s coming to visit p>
“Your moms coming p>
He nodded. “Said she’ll be here tomorrow p>
A sigh fell from my lips. What a family reunion this was going to be. I didn’t even know where to start with all of this.
“Why’d you think she left all of them years ago p>
“Me”. I spoke. “My dad wasn’t stable after my mom passed. So, she thought the best decision was to move us away. She left her mate for me p>
“You don’t know that”. Jake spoke.
If I’m honest I forgot he was here with him being so quiet.
“No, I do”. I nodded.
“He could have left with her”. Carter spoke.
“I guess we’ll find out the truth soon. I’m going to lay down for a bit I’m starting to get a headache”. I left them in the kitchen and headed upstairs.
I wasn’t even in bed five minutes and Jake was at the door with a glass of water and some painkillers. “Take these before you go to sleep’. He placed them in my hand before handing me the glass.
“I’m just resting”. I took the pills before handing him the glass back. “Should we go out to dinner tonight p>
“We’re already going to dinner tonight at my parents”. He placed the glass on the bedside table before sitting down.
“We are?”. I frowned.
“Yeah”. He smiled. “I’m pretty sure I mentioned it to you p>
“Maybe you did”. I shrugged. ‘What time have we to be there and is it a family dinner p>
“Isn’t it always p>
A laugh fell from my lips. “Your mom sure loves throwing a dinner party”. I moved myself down the bed a little so I could lay my head on the pillow.
“It’s her thing”. He grinned. “She loves entertaining and having people over at the house p>
I didn’t blame her their house was stunning.
“I don’t think Alanna is talking to me”. I spoke.
“That’ll be the two of us then”. He shrugged.
“I haven’t heard from her since she stormed out of here”. We talked almost every day. It wasn’t like her not to reach out and I didn’t want to be the first one to send a message in case she bit my head off.
“I wouldn’t worry about it. She’ll come around she always does p>
A yawn fell from my lips as I reached for the tv remote. “I’m just going to chill out up here for a bit. Are you going anywhere p>
“I’m going to drop in on Rocco and then go for a run. I’ll lock the door on my way out and check in with you in a bit p>
“I was meant to come with you”. I rubbed a hand down my face a sigh falling from my lips.
“You just stay put and relax”. He leaned over placing a kiss on my forehead. “And we’ve to be at my moms
for 8 p>
“Okay I’ll be ready p>
I didn’t sleep instead I got carried away on my phone scrolling through Facebook and looking through old pictures. No one had replied to group chat yet and I wasn’t sure how I felt about it.
We were all friends and yet no one had bothered to message back.
Maybe they were busy?
Screw being busy I wasn’t being ignored anymore.
