CALISTA GRACE

Ashton just stares at me.

"Let me out." Maeve says.

I do.

I feel my blue eyes change to her gold eyes as I'm forced to look through hers.

Ashton gulps and looks away from my gaze.

"Answer us." Maeve says through my mouth.

Aida lowers her gaze to the floor and goes to leave but Maeve stops her.

"Stop." she says looking directly at Aida.

Aida's eyes meet Maeve's before lowering back down but this time she doesn't move.

We focus our attention back on Ashton to find him pacing back and forth.

"You're either going to hate me, not believe me, or not trust me." he says, still not meeting my eyes, well Maeves eyes.

"We're already two out of three of those things Ashton. Spit it out." Maeve says.

I'm aware no one in their right mind speaks this way to an alpha this way but I'm far from caring right now.

"You're my daughter." he says, finally meeting her gaze.

This time it's me who laughs.

Right.

My dad's Connor Grace.

"I know it sound crazy, Calista, I didn't believe it either. Not until I saw your wolfs eyes. Arro's eyes." Ashton tells me.

The smile goes off my face immediately.

How does he know Arro's name?

But he's right. Maeve and Arro have the same gold eyes.

My wolf is black and hers is white.

But our eyes are exactly the same.

"How do you know that?" This time I ask him. Letting Maeve settle back into my head. 

My eyesight goes back to normal.

Then I remember my first thoughts when seeing Ashton.

My shock when seeing his blue eyes, identical to my own.

Now that I'm looking there exactly like my own.

His black hair, his eyes, his lips, his nose.

I look exactly like this man.

No.

He's messing with me.

It's a coincidence.

It has to be.

"Because Allison is my mate." Ashton says.

I laugh at that, "No, my dad is my mom's mate." 

He winces at my words.

"I am your mothers, Allisons, mate. We mated shortly after meeting, and I guess that was when you were conceived. She was the Alpha's daughter of the Crecent moon pack, and the blood moon pack was there neighboring pack and enemy. We met at the border. I guess her father found out we were mated and came onto our lands. His beta was a hybrid witch and put a curse on your mother that made her think I was killed which also removed her mark. It made her feel like I was dead." Ashton tells me.

I know half of that story. About my grandfather being a very cruel alpha. Abou his beta being a hybrid witch, about my mother being of Alpha blood from the crescent moon pack.

"He's telling the truth. I can feel it. I always wondered why I felt no bond towards Connor." Maeve whispers to me.

I suck in a quick breath.

He's telling the truth...

Maeves words repeat over and over again in my mind.

The bond I feel with this man isn't just a very strong friendship.

It's the same feeling I have with my mother.

Parental bond.

"You feel it too don't you." he asks.

I don't need to ask to know what he is talking about.

I just nod my head as a silent tear falls from his eye.

The man standing in front of me is my father.
