Alpha's White Lie (Rosy and Blake) novel Chapter 97

“Rosalie, you were never meant to find out. Your mother and I

decided that it was too risky for me to tell anyone that I had a

daughter outside of my mating. I couldn’t put you in that sort of

danger. So I left. I checked up on you when I could but people were

starting to notice and I couldn’t visit anymore. You need to

understand that you were conceived outside of my bonding. It was a

moment of weakness and I have punished myself every day for it.”

“I can’t change what happened and what I did but I can promise to

be a better person now. A better father to you and my son. I’m not

happy about how you’ve found out about this, but I am happy that

you now know about my kind. However, I do hope you reconsider your

relationship with this boy. It’s a very dangerous world and I don’t

want you being part of it”

“Firstly, what I do in my life is none of your concern. I will do

what I want and who I want. You are in no position to tell me what to

1. do. Secondly, son? I have a brother?”

“Yes Rosalie, you have a half brother. My bonded mate and I have

a son together. After I found out Beth was pregnant with you, I told Theresa. She too was pregnant at the time. We tried to make our bonding work but I couldn’t deal with her loyalty. I couldn’t understand why she wasn’t angry with me. She even insisted I bring

you to stay with us. In another weak moment, I packed my bags and

left her too. I haven’t seen my son for a very long time.”

Theresa? Theresa Waltz. I suddenly remembered where I had seen

Richard. My brain was working on overdrive as the faded old picture

flashed before my eyes. The memory got clearer and I could see the

wooden 6×4 photo frame that was hanging against the pale green

wall. The pale green wall was part of a living room that I had been in

multiple times. The living room that held several great memories that

were spent with a family that I never knew was partially mine.

I was hyperventilating. I felt nauseous and dizzy. The realisation

was daunting. I knew who he was talking about. I knew his mate, I

knew his son. Did they know who I was? I was aware that Blake was

holding me and supporting my weight because I didn’t trust my legs

to keep me upright anymore.

“Rosy!” I heard my name echo from the hospital corridor. It was

Taylor’s voice.

“Rosy, which room are you in?” The voice came again.

Shit! I forgot I had called Taylor to tell her mum was in the

hospital. She was already here in Greenwoods and said she would

stop by to see us.

“Over here Taylor” Blake called out. I had lost my brain to mouth

connection.

2 seconds later, Taylor was standing at the doorway. She walked in

and right behind her was Rocky. I gasped and grabbed Blake’s arm

tightly. Fuck what the hell was he doing here?!

They both fully entered the room and looked around. My eyes

were glued to Rocky’s face. I watched as his gaze landed on Richard.

He did a double–take and froze mid–step. I watched as Rocky’s eyes

widened and jaws dropped. My grip on Blake’s arm tightened. He

looked down at me before following my gaze and looking at Rocky.

Richard looked uncomfortable as Rocky’s eyes bore into him. He

rubbed the back of his neck and shifted his weight between his feet.

Taylor walked past me towards my mum.

“Oh my god Beth, are you okay? You look like hell” she exclaimed,

clearly not sensing the tension in the room.

She turned to say something to me before realising that Rocky

was standing there glaring at a stranger.

“Rockz, I think you’re making the man uncomfortable. It’s rude to

stare like that” Taylor said. Her words didn’t even dent Rocky’s

trance.

Richard huffed “Is there a problem young man? You look at me

like I should be 6 feet under the ground” he chuckled at the last bit.

Rocky’s lips moved but no words came out. My heart was racing

and my breathing was laboured. Tears were building up at the corner

of my eyes and I didn’t know how much longer I could keep it
