Thirty-Four

Keir

For the next few days, things are pretty quiet while we wait and hope the elders come to their senses without any additional arguments. Julien could simply present me to the pack as the new Alpha Mate and be done with it, but he’s trying to keep the peace. Rachel thinks he’s being too naïve—I kind of do, too—but I definitely appreciate the bit of downtime. There have been a lot of changes in my life in a very short period of time and having some breathing room is going a long way toward helping me adjust.

The first day Julien and I spend most of our time in bed cementing our mate bond. Having a lover who’s actually kind and considerate is still something I’m getting used to, but I’m damn sure not complaining. We’re certainly not lacking for chemistry and the physical intimacy is slowly chipping away at my fears and insecurities.

The second day is much of the same except Julien and I actually leave the bedroom to sit down and eat dinner with Rachel, Remy, Dante, and Brody at the dining room table. The whole family meal thing is a novelty to me. I can’t remember ever sharing a table, much less light-hearted, friendly banter with my dad or anyone else in my former pack. I don’t say much during the meal, still feeling slightly out of place, but there’s a smile on my lips the entire time.

By the third day, we still haven’t heard a word from the elders and I’m getting a little antsy. Having this little reprieve from life’s dramas is definitely nice, but there’s also a heavy sense of apprehension hanging over me, as if something’s waiting in the wings to snatch my newfound happiness away.

That evening, Julien and I are sitting on the deck together when Remy pops his head out the back door and asks us to come inside. There’s something in his tone that sends anxiety spiking through my body.

“What’s wrong?” I ask.

“We have a bit of a situation,” says Remy as he leads me toward the living room.

“Like what?”

Remy gestures to a dark-haired man sitting on the couch. “He showed up a few minutes ago.”

“And…?” My gaze darts from the stranger to Remy.

“And he claims he’s your father.”

I’ve been expecting something to go wrong, but this… My jaw drops as my mind goes blank with shock. Every thought in my head deserts me, leaving me simply staring silently at the stranger with my mouth wide open.

In other words, I’m standing here looking like a complete dumbass.

I force my gaze away from the man on the couch and back to Remy. I stammer for a second before my brain manages to put words together into something coherent.

“He claims he’s my what now?” I glance between Remy and the interloper—who’ve I’ve never seen before in my life.

“He claims he’s your father,” repeats Remy.

“That’s impossible…” But is it? Randall was pretty clear on the fact that I’m not actually his nephew by blood. But even if I accept this guy’s claim as truth, that still brings up plenty more questions.
