Chapter 33 – part 1

Everly POV

I came home from my run to find Valarian sitting at the dining room table trying to use my laptop. My mood had lifted now I had gone for a run, but I was exhausted as I untied my laces and slipped my shoes off. The run really zapped my energy, and I had to take the long way around because someone had fixed the hole in the fence. Tomorrow, I would have to send someone to open it up again or maybe install a gate, which would be ideal because we can lock it off at night. Zoe is watching TV with the volume low and barely audible. She smiles at me and gives me a nod, turning back to the TV and pretending to be watching it when I know she was just keeping an eye on Valarian.

Valarian looks up at me, his cheek rested on his hand as he tried to use the laptop. Walking over to him, I run my fingers through his hair before bending down and kissing his forehead before kneeling next to him and looking at the

screen.

“What are you trying to do?” I ask him before standing and dragging the chair out beside him. He lets out a breath before looking at me.

“I wanna know who my dad is, why he left us. But I don’t kno✓ his last name, and Aunty Zo said to wait for you?” he says. I could tell he had been crying, his eyes were all puffy and red,

he sniffled before plucking a tissue from the tissue box and blowing his nose.

He folds up his tissue into a perfectly neat square before placing it in the bin and washing his hands. I turn the laptop toward me before typing Alpha Valen Solace. Images and news articles pop up, and Valarian takes his seat next to me and looks at the screen before looking over at me, and I gesture toward the laptop.

“That’s your father,” I tell him, and he turns back to look at the

screen.

“We have the same eyes,” he says, looking at me. His amber eyes peer up at me, his lashes wet from crying. I nod sadly at him.

“Yes, you have his eyes; it’s a genetic trait on the male’s side,” I tell him, and he glances back at the pictures of his father on the screen.

“When I fell pregnant with you, I didn’t know your father was my mate, we met at an Alpha meeting, and we were both drinking, and that is when I became pregnant with you.”

“So you kissed, and I was created?”

I chuckle at his words, and so does Zoe behind me.

“Yep, that pretty much sums it up,” I tell him.
