She Wasn't My Daughter Novels & Stories

"But she's my sister..." "No." I cut her off, cold as ice. "She is not your sister. She is your father's daughter. Not mine. Don't forget that." Her wide eyes searched my face as though she had never heard it spoken so plainly before. But it was the truth. Layla was not mine. She never had been.

My voice came out barely above a whisper. "This isn't Renz's daughter."

I tu‌rned toward her. ‌"M‍other..." "‍D‌on't call me tha⁠t."⁠ Her voice was sharper than Father's slap. "I only had one child." My breathing became uneven. "Pl‍ease..." I whispe‌red. "I⁠'m your daughter." "No." She folded her arms across her chest. "You're noth‌ing but a cur‌se that refuses to leave this house." Father pi‍cked up the contract again.

"I don't think it’s that black and white. You're not related to her. Even though you babysat her, and she called you uncle, you were still just a friend, Tor. That's what you have to focus on. You're a friend who helped your friends take care of their kid because they were only fifteen years old when they had her. You were just a kid yourself. You pretty much grew up with her. None of this is a normal situation, so how could there have been a normal result?" I lean my elbows on the table and put my pounding head in my hands. "I don't know. I just want us to be able to be together and be happy, but I feel like people will crucify me." "Stop beating yourself up, Toren. You haven't done anythin

Was she saying that she wasn’t my mother? “That’s right. You are not my daughter. I had no choice but to raise you when your father brought you home. I thought it was going to be fine as long as you stayed on the sidelines. But you stole my daughter’s birthright. Sasha’s meant to be the CEO of our family business where you don’t belong. I’m not going to make the same mistake twice,” she swore before ripping the oxygen mask from my face.

“You think you can come back now because suddenly you feel like having a grandchild? Sorry to disappoint you, but we won’t be staying here for long.” Her eyes shot up. “What do you mean you won’t be staying for long?” I scoffed. “It’s none of your business. Just stay away from my daughter.” Her shoulders stiffened. “Liv, you can’t be serious.” “I’m very serious.” “You can’t take her away—” I cut her off sharply. “She is my daughter. Not yours. Not the family’s. Not anyone’s. Mine.” Her lips opened and closed, like she was trying to find an argument strong enough to hold me in place. But she had nothing. She always had nothing when it came to real emotion.

She sat down opposite me and grinned as she studied my slightly haggard face that was lined with the evidence of the passing of time. "I guess the jig is up. You're right. I'm not your daughter. Your real daughter died ages ago," she said with a cruel smile. Every word that she said was like a blade that stabbed into my heart. Rose's smile grew when she noticed my steely expression. "What's wrong? Can't accept the truth after reading my paper? To be honest, it's not a big deal. So many years have passed since then. Your daughter probably wouldn't have lived for too long even if Dad didn't sell her off.

She revealed, smiling, and my brows shot up. " But not to his own daughter. He was an amazing father to his mistress's daughter!" She sneered. " Now, if you may excuse me, " "You all disgust me."

She said, looking at me tenderly, like she really cared. "I can give you money. You can disappear" I said. "I can't leave her," she said. "Soon they will come for her." She said looking very tired. "Why didn't you think before giving Pollen to an untrained person?" I asked angrily. "It was a mistake," she admitted, her voice filled with shame. "But she is my daughter". She added, “I only wanted the best for her.” I couldn't help but laugh. “You know, I don't understand why I didn't figure this out earlier”

"Yeah I know them. I thought I mated with Oisin but now I'm not so sure..." "You aren't a vampire so no, you haven't completed the mating process with him. And it will stay that way if my brat of a daughter has anything to do with it. She never was good at sharing, unless it was someone sharing her." She rolls her ghostly eyes and surprisingly makes me laugh. "Why didn't she end up mating with Oisin or even Rian?"
