Fated To The Alpha (Ezra, Katya)

Read Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 223 – I hadn’t even got in the car when I felt my phone vibrate in my back pocket. Pulling it out, the screen read Kyan. He had sent a text message, and my stomach instantly dropped. My hands shook as I opened the message.

Kyan: Regret is horrible to live with, and you will regret what you have done.

“You ok?” my father asks, and I pocket the phone swallowing down the bile that rose up the back of my throat, and I nodded to my father, who was watching me above the roof of his car.

“Yeah, fine,” I tell him before opening the car door and slipping into the passenger seat. My father hops in and starts the car before backing out of his parking space. He then pulled onto the main road.

“Something is wrong. Who was the text message from, Kyan?” My observant father asks. He was the hardest to pretend everything was peachy, nothing escaped him, and that’s why most uncomfortable talks usually came from him. I could get away with hiding away because he was hardly home, but when he was, he constantly questioned, always watched, so I had to put on the best act.

“It was Kyan, wasn’t it,” my father states, and I look out the window watching the City pass by as we drive toward the City borders.

“Yeah, it was Kyan,” I murmur before retrieving my phone and looking down at the phone. I hadn’t replied, and even if I did, exactly what would I say. It doesn’t change anything, I can’t take it back, and I didn’t want to.

“It’s painful; it would have caused him pain, Jonah should have known better, but I have a sneaky suspicion Jonah wanted him to know,” my father says while navigating the streets, and I look over at him.

“What do you mean?” I ask.

“Jonah has been in love with you since he was a kid, I also know finding out your best friend is mated to the woman you love wouldn’t have been easy for him, especially knowing it was Kyan. I think he wanted Kyan to know your reaction to him, sneaky little s**t.”

“I still don’t understand,” I tell him. My father glances at me before he sighs.

“Did you know Kyan was my mate?”

“Your mother loves you, Marabella; she didn’t keep it from you intentionally,”

“So you did know?”‘ I ask, shaking my head. Was I the only one that didn’t?

“No, well, not for sure anyway, your mother never confirmed it. But you need to understand, sometimes information is key, sometimes it isn’t. Sometimes knowing too much can alter things onto a different path, one that is worse because you think you know when really you don’t,”

“You and mum always speak in riddles,”‘ I mutter and roll my eyes. Why not just come out and say it?

“Your mother knew when you were a baby, she couldn’t say anything because it could alter fate, change things, and not always for the best. You need to trust that whatever she does or doesn’t do is in your best interest. Sometimes the best thing to do is nothing.”

“If mum knew, why does she always try to push me toward Jonah,” My father shrugs and seems to think for a second before answering.

“Because sometimes things should be altered, I have no idea whatever your mother saw, but she isn’t very subtle when it comes to you and Jonah,”

“So your not even sure why she told you nothing?” I ask, slightly shocked, I thought my parents had no secrets, yet she kept secrets from them too.

“Whatever she saw, Jonah must have been the better option, or at least needed to be a part of the options, I’m not sure. Your mother has to be careful with what she says to even me; if I give you the wrong information, it could alter everything, she creates bonds, but she never takes choice.”

“But I have a mate; if mum didn’t bond me to Kyan, then who did?”

“Kyan did, that’s all she told me, I asked her the same thing, thinking it was her doing, but she told me she tried to pair you with Jonah, that Seline the old Moon Goddess also tried, yet you and Kyan kept seeking each other out, drawn towards each other like magnets; after a while you both fused together, she couldn’t separate you, but she told me she tried,”

“So I am doomed to be with Kyan. It would be so much easier if we could just pick our own mates,”

“Why can’t you? If Kyan agrees, why can’t you be with Jonah?”

“Because he is not my mate, and what would happen to Kyan?”‘ I ask him with a sigh.

“You know dad wasn’t my mate, right? Well, he is but also wasn’t. It is complicated,” my father says, and my head snapped to the side to look at him.

“But we have his DNA too,” my father nods his head and shrugs.

“You can’t say that then not tell me. Does Eziah know?”

“No, it makes no difference. We are all mates, and we didn’t feel the need to tell you, kids.”

“So what? Mum picked dad, and you just decided to mark him?”‘ I ask.

“Not exactly; your father was a chosen bond, I never understood either but in a sense, I do now, you know of the curse,” I nod. Yes, I was well aware of the curse that was placed on our bloodline, the one that turned me into this freak.

“Well, for the curse to be broken, your mother had to become a Gemini wolf,” I nod, knowing that part.
