Alpha Of Aberdeen novel Chapter 43

My brows draw together with confusion. "What?! Benjamin is not my father?" I ask in shock as I search her face to see if she is telling a lie, but her expression never changes so I know she isn’t lying. "Cypress is your biological father, Chloe. You have had wolf blood coursing through your veins this whole time, but since it was also half-human from your mother’s side, you don't always experience the change. Normally, that would have happened on your 18th birthday, but it obviously didn’t" Sukie explains, never breaking my eye contact.

The realization of this bomb she just dropped on me hits me like a ton of bricks. My eyes go wide in fear. "OH MY GOD! If Cypress is my father, then that means Malachi is my brother WHAT THE FUCK!!!" I scream and start to pace in a small patch of grass as my hands threaten to rip my hair out. I can feel Sukie’s eyes on me as if she is contemplating the level of my mental breakdown. "STOP!" I hear beside me as Malachi comes around a tree. I freeze as the word brother rings in my mind and all the memories of us together play on repeat. I have to force down the bile that’s rising in my throat.

"Wait, Malachi. Let her speak," I demand, putting my hand up to stop him from coming closer. I’m not sure I could hold it together if he touches me. Thankfully, Malachi stops, clearly confused about why I won't let him come to my side. I hear Sukie scoff beside me as she shakes her head. "Chloe, stop freaking out. You didn't have sex or a baby with your brother. Malachi is not Cypress's son. Evadean fell in love with the Alpha of the Cosmopolis pack before Cypress met your mother, so you are not related, but your lives are pretty fucked up," Sukie says, laughing a little.

I take a deep breath, feeling like I'm hyperventilating. "What is this witch bitch talking about?" Malachi demands, looking from me to Sukie and back. I turn to Sukie, "How do we know you are telling the truth?" I question, raising a brow. "I have no reason to lie to you," She declares. Malachi looks between us, confused. "Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on?!" he demands.

I walk to him, wrapping my arms around his torso and look up into his eyes. "Well, my mother is a whore for starters, and your father, who is not your father, was in love with my mother. Cypress is my father, and I am human, werewolf, and witch, but I never changed because of being human, and your father is Evadean's Alpha," I explained to Malachi in fast pace not taking a breath until i finished, then take a deep breath and turn my attention to Sukie "Did I get that right?" I verified, and she nodded.
