Chapter 11
Taliyah’s P.O.V.
+8 Pearls
I walk down the stairs and say my goodbyes to Xandros through the mind–link. He will be the only one that knows that I am not Wolfless and I know he will keep it a secret.
Looking at him, I know that no one can tell that he just uncovered a huge secret. I walk past Ayden, Alena and my Father towards the Delta’s that will take me to the Council.
One of them looks at me and says “Shouldn’t you say goodbye to your Father?” I chuckle and ask him why I would want to say goodbye to a man that loathes me, because I am keeping him from getting what he wants.
After I say those words, I walk out the door and make my way over to a black SUV. I stop next to it and wait for the Delta’s to arrive. They take their time and if it wasn’t for the fact that I want to keep my secret a little longer, I might have made a run for it.
One of the men opens the door for me and another takes my bag from my hands. I am about to step in to the car as Ivory pushes forward and says “Now we both have stopped him from getting what he wants, Mom.”
The man standing next to me, looks at me with surprise on his face and he is about to say something when he clams his mouth shut. He just chuckles and I get a feeling he is aware of my secret.
As the SUV pulls away, I stare out the window and a small part of me hopes that one day I will return here to see Xandros. And hopefully he has found his Mate by then, because he deserves to be truly happy. To have someone that loves him for himself, not for what he might represent.
Xandros‘ P.O.V.
My Wolf is having a party in my head and even though it is annoying as hell, I don’t stop him.
My Wolf and I learned at an early age it was best not to show any emotion in front of Father and now I am glad that we perfected it. Because hearing her voice through the mind–link was the last thing I had expected.
My Wolf is laughing as we remember her holding on to Alena’s throat and I realize that she held back, because in a fit of rage we can snap a neck in seconds.
“She most have heard a lot over the years. Most would whisper around her, after all being Wolfless meant she wouldn’t be able to hear them.” My Wolf states and I chuckle.
A slam on the table jolts me from my thoughts and as I look around I see that Alpha Roger has arrived. “Alpha Roger.” I say and nod my head.
“Xandros, just get used to not seeing that Wolfless Bitch again.” Alena says and I have to restrain my Wolf from growling at her. Without saying another word I finish my dinner and walk out of the room.
Taliyah’s P.O.V.
I am very aware of the Delta sitting next to me and I wish I could move further away from him, but there is nowhere to go.
The driver turns his head to me and asks “Why does your file state that you are Wolfless?” I tell him to keep his eyes on the road and I turn my head to look out of the window.
“You have nothing to lose. Tell them what you know.” And I know that Ivory is right.
“My Mother died when I was fifteen and on her deathbed she told me she was a Lycan. Because of that I did not shift when I turned eighteen and my Father automatically assumed that I was Wolfless.” I tell them about my Father marking Alena before my Mother actually died and I hear them chuckle.
“My Father didn’t even know her full name. He only knew her as Bella.” The driver asks me what her full name was and for a moment I am quiet, not sure if I should tell them.
“Her name was Izabella.” I almost slam in to the seat in front of me as the driver steps on the break, but the Delta next to me is fast enough to put his arm in front of me.

The three men look at me and the one in the passenger seat gets out. He puts a phone to his car and after a few moments be gets back in to the car.
“The Council wants to see her and if it is confirmed that we are right, they will inform the King Confusion most be visible on my face, because the Delta next to me grabs my face to make me look at him.
“My name is Kaelan, the one behind the wheel is Amand and that is Camden. From the moment you walked down those stairs, we knew there was something familiar about you.
If your Mother is the Izabella we once knew, than your Father will be in for a shock. But there is only one person that can actually confirm our suspicions.” He looks in to my eyes and I can see the sincerity in his eyes.
I nod my head and thank him for explain at least a little. Amand pulls away from the curb and we continue our trip to the Council. Kaelan asks me about the charges and I tell them my side of the story.
“I don’t know who the note is from, but I have my suspicions.” I look at Kaelan and he tells me that it was Xandros.
“The only one who actually cared about me after Mother died.” I whisper as I stare at my hands. Kaelan puts his hand on my hands and gives them a little squeeze.
