The Alpha King And His Chosen Luna novel Chapter 267

Hamle they gave me

The name they gave me

(Caius)

Isla stared at the book in her hands. A name had been written across the cover, but it wasn’t the name she had known all her life. I saw her eyes move over it more than once. Then she looked at Tavian.

“Isalienne Rowan.”

Tavian nodded.

“The name your parents gave you.”

Isla looked down at the cover again. I could see the moment she understood why part of the name felt familiar. Isla was still there, but someone had taken the rest away. Rowan belonged to Darius.

“Derek and Helene changed it.”

“They shortened your name and gave you Derek’s family name.”

Isla ran her fingers across the writing. Everything we’d learned about her disappearance came back to the message found in Silvermere. Her name would be changed and her blood would remain hidden. Now we knew exactly what those words meant.

“They kept Isla.”

“Yes.”

Isla opened the book. Writing covered the first page, and she stopped when she saw the name again. Lyrienne had written to the daughter she knew as Isalienne. Isla began reading.

My Isalienne,

She stared at those words. Vaela came closer inside her, and Vorak noticed her immediately. I reached across the table and took Isla’s hand. She continued reading.

“If this book has reached you, then something I prayed for has happened. You survived. Whatever name you have known, remember that Isalienne Rowan was the name your father and I gave you. You were ours before anyone took you away.”

Isla stopped reading. Her fingers remained against the page. Tavian said nothing from across the table. This belonged to Isla.

“My mother knew they might change my name.”

She must have suspected it.”

ista returned to the page. Lyrienne wrote about the message claiming her daughter had died. Wolves around her had accepted it after their searches failed. She never did.

“I could never accept that you were gone. Your father couldn’t accept it either. Darius loved you before he ever held you. He spoke your name every day while we waited for you.”

Isla looked down at the cover again. She had already learned that Darius searched for her. Hearing about him through Lyrienne gave her something different. These weren’t records written by wolves who had watched from outside.

“What was he like? Isla asked

Tavian came closer

“Lyrienne talked about him often.”

He told Isla that Darius had been certain they were having a daughter before anyone confirmed it. He had helped choose Isalienne and prepared for her arrival in Silvermere. Everything had been ready for the child who never arrived. He had spent years hoping the reports about her death were wrong.

Isla turned another page. Corvin Rell’s name appeared among Lyrienne’s writing. I moved closer to read with her. This was where her search had taken her.
