Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Alpha's Secret Daughter: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

LUCY'S POV:Leon and I look at each other for a short time. I don't know his thoughts or feelings, but he seems calm, so I'm trying to pull myself together."Is Bandit okay?" This was the only response I could think of. I wasn't sure what the dream version of me would say to him, but it was a shot in the dark."No, he has been really weak. I don't know what has gotten into him. My best guess is that I'm getting older, and his need to have a mate is pulling our connection apart. I know it doesn't typically happen this young, but being an Alpha, it would make sense for it to happen earlier," he says, shifting to look up at the ceiling. Damn. Here I am. His actual fated mate. Listening to him talk about losing his wolf because he needs his mate.My stomach flips as he turns back on his side to look at me again.I feel horrible. "Do you want a mate?" I might as well take advantage of this moment to ask a few questions I've secretly wanted to know."Do you?" he counters, looking at me wit

LUCY'S POV:It had been a few days since Tricia arrived when I had that dream. Well, I don't know if I would consider it a dream since I was inside someone else's dream. Tricia and I had spent the last couple of days catching up. She told me about a guy she had been crushing on before she came to the Crescent Moon Pack to find me. We talked about her mom and my mom.Apparently, her mom had not taken my mom's passing well. The entire pack loved her, so I assumed her loss impacted many. My heart stung at the mere thought of her being gone; I often tried not to think about it at all.I hadn't told her about all the weird things happening to me yet. I was still trying to build up trust again. After everything I had been through, trusting someone with my secrets wasn't easy.She explained that as Fae, she and her mom could disguise their scent and had been doing so since before she was born. She admitted that my mother was aware that they were Fae, but she had hidden it from my sperm donor

LUCY'S POV:After kicking Zev's ass, much to his shock, I locked myself up in my room. I cried for what felt like hours.At some point, I wasn't even crying for any specific reason. It was a waterfall of pent-up emotions that I had kept bottled up for so long that finally just exploded like a bomb had destroyed the damn that had been holding it there.After I came to my senses, I realized I was still bloodied and bruised. I opened the door to my room, freshly showered but starving. A tray with a dinner plate and a note was at the edge of the door frame.I retreated back into my room with the food and the note, which informed me that he had made up an extra room for Trish to sleep in tonight so I could have some space.Jason really was the best.As I curled up in bed, I sent a silent prayer to the Moon Goddess not to see Leon tonight. I wasn't sure I could keep it together if I did.-------------------------------------------Welp. I was right. I hardly kept it together when I saw him.

LIAMS POV:I slept like total shit last night.Leon usually takes the lead on most things. Not that I can't, but he has always been that half of things.I'm the one who is more tuned to emotion and small details. That's how we function; that is our balance.Lately, that hasn't been the case.Being the lead on most things lately has been exhausting. However, it has given me more respect for Leon's methodology and leadership.I had just finished getting ready for the day when a knock came at the door. It was Leon. I could tell he was feeling many emotions—excited, nervous, and so many others that it was hard to tell them all apart."Come in!" I yelled from the bathroom, where I was brushing my teeth."Hey, Dad wants to talk to us this morning," he said with a big grin spreading across his face."I'm guessing it's not about having another mating gala based on the smile on your face," I say, teasing him. I walk past him, out of the bathroom, to grab my things."No, or at least, I hope tha

LEON'S POV:I had many questions for my Dad after he explained that we had an agreement with a Fae queen to protect some secret lake.For starters, did he still have contact with this queen? Where were they now? My mind was on overdrive, but I had to remain collected.I now knew that Lucy was safe, which alone brought half of my senses back.My Dad said I could see her eventually but now wasn't the time.Again, I was irritated when I realized that Seth and my Dad were having a silent conversation about me seeing Lucy. I pushed it down. Right now wasn't the time.Bandit was extremely quiet so far today, and it was concerning, to say the least.I needed to focus on the pack and finding my mate or at least a mate."There is a coronation ceremony for the Night Shade Pack tonight. I wanted to attend. Let Liam and I go represent our pack. You and Seth have your hands full. It would be a great way for Liam and me to start taking on some of the Alpha duties here so we need to start making more
