97. Light of the Realm

AURELIA

"We can't be honest with her. You've to come up with a lie." Inara chimed her argument into my head as I fought a mental battle in order to decide the path I would be taking with Iris's words echoing in my mind as a reminder of my situation.

"But for how long would I keep lying? Think about it, Ina." I countered my wolf despite the battle going on within me. "Iris seems like the only person who can help me get answers. She's partially like us and she can lead us home, help us get better with our abilities, maybe, I can know my parents."

"They are dead, Relia. What's the point of digging up the dead past? Whereas we have Tristan to do more than Iris could ever do. He brought us this far." Inara argued convincingly.

I frowned, annoyance zapping through me. "I thought you were on my side this time. You motivated me to find answers."

"What's wrong with you! I'm always on your side and yes, I support getting answers but not revealing who we are. Think about the risk we'd be taking-" Inara stood firm, her anger colliding with mine.

I was about to snap at Inara. She wasn't listening to me but Iris got both our attention when she blurted with squinted eyes, "You are immune to silver aren't you?"

I sucked in a sharp breath, still finding it difficult to make up my mind. Should I just tell her?

"When Raiden found out you were his destined mate, we all knew you were wolfless and I assumed you were a late bloomer but now, I think I've you figured out," Iris stated, her eyes narrowing as she used them to seize me up.

I sighed, "l-iris, you won't understand-"

"Oh, I think I do, Aurelia." Iris scooted closer to me, her butt barely on the bed. "The only wolf I knew who was immune to silver was my mom and she is a white wolf which means you are one as well."

My breath hitched.
