The mere thought made my heart ache so much, as though someone was squeezing the life out of me.
At that moment, I just wanted to Leave this damned place and never see Caleb and Janiya again.
Without wasting time, I turned around and quickly left the hospital. But just as I made it to the gate of the hospital, someone blocked my way.
“What are you doing?”
I raised my head angrily and saw Carlos standing in front of me, carrying a thick stack of documents.
“It’s rude to block the way,” I said icily, glaring at Carlos.
However, Carlos didn’t flinch. On the contrary, he Looked at me coldly, as though he knew something I didn’t.
“Debra, I know who you really are.”
Debra’s POV:
My heart leaped to my throat.
Did Caleb have me investigated?
Panic started welling up in me as countless theories crossed my mind. Did Caleb find out that I had joined Xeric Pack? What excuse could I use to keep my cover?
At this moment, Carlos continued, “Frankly, your background proves that you aren’t good enough for Caleb.
“Huh?” I grunted, Looking at him in confusion. What on earth was he talking about? But Carlos looked dead serious.
He squinted at me and added, “But don’t worry. Now that Caleb has confirmed that you’re his mate, he’ll find a way to make it work.”
I continued to stare at him in unmasked confusion.
This was so strange. What was going on?
“What did you find out about me?” I asked tentatively.
“Your true identity.” Carlos handed me the investigative report. “You don’t have to hide anymore. This is what my people found out when I sent them to inquire about you at the Silver Ridge Pack. Now I understand why you’ve been acting the way you have.”
Feeling dubious, I lowered my head and started reading the document carefully.
What I saw in the document stunned me.
Because the person the document described wasn’t me at all! According to Carlos’s investigation, I was a child of a prostitute. After being abandoned by my birth mother, I was adopted by the servant of the pack’s former Luna, Vicky. I had been expelled from Silver Ridge Pack because I got on the wrong foot with the current Luna, Marley.
Personal opinion. I have read all the chapters and I believe around here the story begins to go downhill, with too much unnecessary drama and stalling to the evolution of the story. Secondary characters stealing the spotlight for no valid reason,and what bothers me the most, no integrity at characters, the seem to go back and forth at their opinions, and always misunderstand each other not even trying to sort it out. And those detectives really lousy, can’t find out anything properly.
The premise of this story is good and has good potential and it is a pity to complicate it with filler chapters and soap opera like solutions.
