Beatrice's POV:
Present Time:
It's been a few hours since I returned home, and I haven't seen my mother. I heard my mother and Lord
Vasquez argued for hours, and then my mom locked herself in her room.
I had to awkwardly stand in the living room with Lord Vasquez, Helel, and Akin. Vasquez had been
rubbing his face in his hands and sighing nonstop while we stood around him and waited for him to
open up to us. Whatever they talked about had deeply unsettled my mother.
"Dad! Why were you with Flynn's mother?" Helel finally broke the silence and questioned his father.
"And that too after you announced your mating ceremo- ny with Scarlet to us," Akin added, shaking his
head at his fa- ther in disbelief.
"I wasn't on a date with her," Lord Vasquez argued, sounding upset at being called out for taking
Varisha shop- ping.
"But why were you with her, dad? Would you like your mate going around shopping with someone
else?" Helel sat down on the couch in front of his father and hunched over his knees.
"I don't know how to tell you all why I was with her," Vasquez sighed, closing his eyes and thinking he
could hide. from reality by simply shutting his eyes.

his eyes and straightened his back.
We all shared a glance and then watched his face in si- lence. Who was arriving?
The doorbell rang, and Helel ran before anybody else. I raised my head to let out the breath I had been
holding back and found Akin staring at me. The way he panicked when I caught him made me feel bad
for not looking away. He in- stantly looked around, probably mentally cursing himself for getting caught.
I could tell he was being too hard on himself. Soon, Helel arrived again with guests behind him. My
body trembled at the sight of not only Flynn but also Lady Varisha with him. A frown covered my
forehead while I expected the worst to come forward.
They could be here for two reasons.
Either to make me accept Flynn or because of whatever was going on between Varisha and Lord
Vasquez.
"I will go bring my mom," I said, turning around but un- able to move past the living room when Lord
Vasquez stopped me in mid-stride by calling for me.
"Beatrice! I've already spoken with her. This meeting is to come clear before you all." Lord Vasquez
spoke, making me stand back and wait for him to finish.
"I know you all have many questions regarding me and Varisha," Lord Vasquez started while Varisha
sat down with him on the couch and Flynn stood beside her. From the looks

of it, I could tell they knew what Lord Vasquez was going to talk about.
Flynn looked all red as if he had a whole meltdown prior to coming here. He wasn't even looking at
anyone.
"The reason you saw me with her is---- that she is a moth- er of my child," Lord Vasquez's words swept
the world from under everyone's feet. Where Helel and Akin shared a glance in shock, Flynn closed his
eyes. He seemed to want to disap- pear.
"What? Dad! Do you know what you are saying?" Helel stepped forward while Akin held his hand and
pulled him back.
"No! he is telling us that Flynn---- is our brother and we never knew about it?" Helel argued, freeing his
hand from Akin's grasp and shaking his head in disbelief. I was stunned too. Some things make sense
in my head now. I should have questioned it long before when he was the only person out- side the
alpha king bloodline that I felt a mate bond with.
"It's one of my many bitter truths that I've hidden from you all," Lord Vasquez said, unable to raise his
head and look at his sons. Akin was standing in the fireplace while Helel was shaking his head
repeatedly and grunting.
I was at a loss for words. That's when Lady Sofia entered the living room and got attention for herself.
"For those who had accused me of ruining my relation- ship with Lord Vasquez, this truth drove us
apart," she said as she stared at her sons. I watched Akin slowly lower his face and look guilty.

So maybe he was the one who had questioned her and probably accused her of their divorce.
"I found out about the truth many years ago and con- fronted him. Huh! He didn't look that guilty back
then. He ac- cused me of focusing a lot on my kids and not giving him time. Anyway, here is the truth
now," she smirked, but there was pain hiding behind her voice and body language.
It was nasty how Lord Vasquez made her feel guilty when, in reality, he couldn't keep his dick in his
pants.
"Now that everybody knows about it-- I want Flynn to move in here with us." Lord Vasquez announced
another terri- fying news to us. It was indeed a lot for all of us, as the broth- ers also knew that he was
my mate.
"It's sweet that you suddenly remember that you are my father, but I would rather stay with my mother,"
Flynn said, looking angry and probably hurt, too. He spent his childhood not knowing his father was a
lord. And where others were giv- en luxuries and a title of an Alpha King, he was left with noth- ing
much.
"What if your mother moves in here with us?" Lord Vasquez, who was feeling guilty for not being there
for his son, gave Flynn another option, and it struck me this time.
I watched the brothers shake their heads and then silently look my way while Sofia had a sly smile on
her lips. She was probably laughing at the fate of my mother.
"Then it is fine," Flynn agreed out of the blue. The anger he showed before made me think he would
never agree to this, but strangely enough, he did, which confused me.
