Chapter 77: Chapter 77

The little boy was named Gerard, and Carmine grew up alongside him before I was born.

He was just an innocent Alpha, stripped of his pack, his title just because of my father.

Carmine then told me that Gerard was an heir to his pack before my father took him away.

He had loving parents, but they intended to save their pack. My father forced Gerard to be his son, holding him as a hostage to remind Gerard’s people that if they ever dare to rebel against him, if Gerard dares to rebel against him, he will kill him and the wolf stone will be gone.

That’s why when Gerard found out he was my mate, he tried to avoid me because of my father.

He knew about us a long time ago. That’s why he was trying everything possible to have us separated except for the fact he was my mate.

They treated Gerard like some slave and I was busy laughing, not knowing what the hell was truly going on.

He went through so much because of my family. Why would he want to mate with someone like me?

Though he bit me and marked me as his mate and disappeared, I still love him.

I keep having dreams about him.

A day never goes by that I don’t think about Gerard. He is always on my mind.

However, my mother came along and told me that Gerard was truly my brother. All those stories Carmine told me were lies.

I investigated, but everyone told me that Gerard was my biological brother.

Before I could confront Carmine for lying to me, he disappeared from the realms and never returned.

I don’t know which of them were telling the truth.

My brother or my parents.

Yet, the most shocking part of it all is why does Gérard and I look so much alike if we are not related?

Our eyes, our pointed noses and everything all looked the same.

Inspecting us, everyone could tell we were siblings with our white hair and blue eyes.

Why did Carmine have to lie to me? Not only does Gérard look like me, each of us took similar traits and resemblance.

This is so confusing.

After searching for what I would never find, I finally accepted my mother’s words.

Yet Gerard will always be my mate. It doesn’t matter if he is my brother or not.

I left the hospital after Ragnar consoled me and advised me to take a good rest, saying everything will be fine.

He gave me a couple of drugs, instructing me to take it twice a day and make sure I don’t get worried by thinking. He believed in me that my baby was going to survive, unlike Garold.

I thanked him and left.

I got outside the hospital and walked on my toes with a little smile on my face.

It seems like you’ll have to walk home alone, Oceana, doesn’t it?’

Valarr.

I sighed and walked past him, not wanting him to ruin my evening.

“None of them cared to wait for you. They all disappeared as soon as the doctor diagnosed you that you can never be pregnant again.’

“Sometimes how you hear about my problems surprises me.’ I laughed mockingly.

“I was at the hospital. What a coincidence!’ He walked closer to me.

“Why do I find it hard to believe that it is not simply a coincidence, Valarr?’

He stepped closer to me. “I want to have you in my bed again. How long has it been?’

I hate him.

“Did you come all the way from the realms to have me? You must be sick in the head.’

“Still as frosty as ever, Oceana. Do you think I have forgotten about your incestuous relationship with Gerard? I told you we can never find him. Seems to me you still have feelings for him.’

“What is your problem?’ I snapped.

“My problem, which you haven’t answered me for the past five years, still lingers. So, tell me why you left me and got married to Kai’s older brother. I need an answer now.’

“Don’t command me.’

“Oh, really,’ he snickered.

“Yes, and get out of my way. Whatever we had was a mistake. It should never have happened in the first place, Valarr. So, please go away from here.’

I walked past him.

“Is Nolana my daughter?’

I went still with shock, squeezing my toes in fear with my back facing him.

“After you left and disappeared mysteriously and got married to Garold. I still couldn’t forget you and the passionate night we had during your rut. How wet and moist you were down there still lingers, as if it had happened just yesterday. I missed you so much that I jerk off almost everyday thinking about you. No matter how many women I slept with, they were never better than you.” I could sense his footsteps getting closer to me.

This was bad.

He wrapped his hand around my waist, used one of his hands and held my breast.

All I could do was let my hot tears flow down my cheeks.

“I know you are pregnant again. Can you stop killing these babies? You and I both know you can’t have a child unless your partner is your mate. Garold is not your mate.’

I disagree with his statement that not all Alphas, Betas, and Omegas are fated to be with mates but they move along and still fall in love and give their spouses kids…

A few days later, Gerard disappeared. I almost died of the bond. I suffered so much with blood spilling out of my mouth and the only way to be saved was to sleep with Valarr.

I regretted that day. It became the worst day of my life. I did it to survive and the fool wouldn’t stop talking to me since then.

“But your case is distinct. It is your destiny to have children with only your mates. You know that, and why do you keep getting pregnant?’

“Leave me alone, Valarr.’ I swallowed with a deep breath.

“I can’t leave you alone. You know I’m in love with you, so why pretend not to know is what I’m trying to understand? I’ve been in love with you since you were a child, but I never got the chance to get close to you. I was your second mate. Gerard knew I was also yours, but why do you think he handed you over to me?’ He chuckled. “He is nothing but a coward.’

I pushed myself away from him and slapped him so hard in the face.

“Do not speak such words about him again, Valarr. You have no right and he never handed me over to you.’

‘Even though he abandoned you, you still have these forbidden feelings for him.’

“I don’t love Gerard anymore. Stop talking about him and leave me alone. Go back to where you came from, Valarr.’
