Chapter 112: Illegitimate Child

Asha’s POV

A palpable rage consumed me as I stormed out of the room without a clear direction to go in mind.

A half–sister?? Never once in my life had I ever expected that my father would fall in love with a woman that is not my mother.

My mom and dad were mates destined for each other. My mother patiently waited for her mate and kept herself pure while my father impregnated someone else and even promised her marriage.

Even though they haven’t met each other yet, this should be counted as an affair. My father knew that he would meet his true mate later on, but instead of waiting, he cheated on my mother.

He actually fell in love with another girl, but because of his responsibility as an Alpha, he had to leave his mistress and marry my mother.

My life felt like a whole lie after my father made his raw confession. All my life, I thought my mom and dad had the perfect love story.

I grew up adoring how perfect and lovely my parents are. Even our Pack adores them so much. They are that IT couple that our Pack members look up to.

We are like the adorable and perfect family that everyone wishes to have, where there’s a loving husband, an affectionate wife, and smart and beautiful children.

No one knows that my father was in love with another woman and even bore him an illegitimate child that is older than me and my older brother.

They had no idea that my powerful father had fallen in love with a weak omega who was a nobody compared to my mother, who was known for her beauty throughout our Pack and came from a powerful bloodline.

Now that I finally know his dark secrets, I wonder which one was real and how much of my life was a lie.

I wonder which of the hugs and kisses he gave my mother really came from his heart

When my mother was alive, she never mentioned anything to me or my brother. I wonder if she had any idea about this at all.

If she didn’t, I guess it’s better that my mother didn’t hear all these truths from my father. I know that it would break her heart so much if she had.

I guess her early death is still a blessing because it kept her from knowing about these things.

My phone rang, interrupting me from my thoughts. When I pulled my phone out of my pocket, I saw my older brother calling for a video call.

Although we could communicate through the Pack link, technology is still much better because we

can see the person that we are talking to.

“What happened?” My brother’s brows furrowed instantly as soon as the camera went on, and I saw the heated expression on my face.

“I told you not to pressure yourself so much. It’s just a research study, just take your time, you don’t have to hurry things up,” my brother continued without waiting for my response.

In my life, there’s nothing else that makes me feel sad, angry, and stressed except for the projects and studies that I’m doing. My brother knows that, and he always reminds me to prioritize my health and go easy on myself.

So when he saw my expression, he thought it was one of those studies again.

“It’s not about my studies this time.” I sighed. “Just tell me when are you coming home.”

“Did something bad happen?” His face tightened as he leaned closer to the camera.

I let out a deep breath. I don’t think it’s right for me to tell him that our father brought his illegitimate child into our Pack while he was away for business.

I think this kind of news is something he has to know once he has returned.

“Just tell me how long you are going to be there!” I answered exasperatingly.

His eyes searched around first before looking back at me. “I still don’t know when. Things don’t look good here. Is it something serious? I could go back and stay there for a few days-”

“There’s no need,” I spoke, interrupting him.

I’ve also heard from Beta Alek that things don’t look good on his end. I don’t want to give him more trouble by telling him about this and adding more things to his list of worries.

While he’s not here, I will take care of everything. I will not let Astrid take anything away from us.

I know the likes of her. For an omega like her who had a taste of power, she would surely take her chance with my father.

I can’t let her have anything from us.

“Just focus on your job there, okay? Father has high expectations of you. You can’t let him down this time,” I reminded him, hoping that my words would encourage him.

Andros, my older brother, sighed, tilting his head back. “I’ve done nothing but work.”

That’s how my brother and I differ from each other. While I’m obsessed with work, he is more relaxed and carefree, which is not that bad since he is still a responsible person.

“Dad has placed his trust in you. You have to do your best,” I spoke in a more serious tone.

Now that our father is reunited with his illegitimate child, the more that my brother and I have to prove our value to him so we can win more of his favor.
