Chapter 171

Biancha POV

Toren went quiet after I snapped the question at him. What was going to happen once the potion was over? The notion that I was a succubus felt like a heavy boulder sitting on my chest. I was born and brought up like a werewolf and then shunned for not being able to shift into one.

I took a deep breath in thinking of my father and mother. Was my mother a succubus or my father was an incubus? Nothing made sense because both of them led very “werewolf” like lives. My mind was numb because I was unable to fully process the revelation. It felt surreal. Like I was living a bad dream and now I was plunged into a horrible nightmare. Shock and disbelief warred in my mind, which was trying to grasp the reality of the situation.

Once shock wore off, confusion flooded and along with it, a thousand questions. What was my real identity? The very foundation of who I believed I was, had been shaken, and I had this deep uncertainty swirling inside me. I felt betrayed by my parents. If my father knew about me, why did he keep such a big secret from me? His beatings were severe, but this hurt me deeper.

And if I was a succubus, my future was uncertain. Would it change how others saw me? People would be wary of me and most likely I would be thrown into dungeons. The fear of the unknown was paralyzing. Anger built up. Not just toward my father, but also toward the situation.

Even though insecurity and doubt made me question my self–worth, I saw a flicker of hope in Toren.

“I know you don’t trust me at this time, Biancha,” Toren’s voice tore through my thoughts. “But please have this potion. This is the only way we can ascertain that men don’t come to you. We are going to my pack, which consists of wolves. And wolves are predatory. So-”

My chin quivered as fresh tears fell. “I’m so sorry that I have put you in this mess. You can dump me here, Toren. I swear I won’t complain once.”

He stared at me with anger. Suddenly, he pulled me into his arms and hugged me hard. “Never ever say that. I know it is hard for you.” He pressed my head into his chest. “But we will solve it together. I have informed my parents about it and they have said that they are already investigating your case.”

I just closed my eyes and sighed. His arms, his body, his proximity–everything was so calming to me. “What do your parents do?” I asked. “I can’t thank them enough.” His parents must be really
