Anna followed him all the way to the lab. There, Anga watched through the window as Beta passed over the hair to one of the lab technicians. Fortunately, the lab tech was not only one that Anna recognized, it was one she was good friends with. They belonged to the same gym, and over played tennis together. The lab tech had a vicious serve.
Anna turned waiting near a set of chairs for Beta to leave. The moment she did, she sneaked into the lab and approached her sometimes – acquaintance, sometimes – gym friend, sometimes tennis-
enemy.
“Anna?” the lab tech asked. “What are you doing here?”
“I have a really big favor I need to ask you,” Anna replied. “I wouldn’t ask but it’s really important.”
While Anna didn’t disagree that Julian should know that Alice was his father, she believed that Amber should be the one to tell him.
What would happen if he learned the truth like this? Would he try to get custody of Alice? Would Amber’s whole plans for the future be thrown off – course?
Julian had made some terrible mistakes in his relationship with Amber, especially in choosing Olivia over her.
Anna wasn’t going to let him get away with running Amber’s life any more than he already had.
Julian’s POV
I tried not to stress about the test results. What was done was done and the past couldn’t be undone. I didn’t think my feelings for Amber would change overmuch, and I was certain that I’d still feel affection for Alice.
I knew what I hoped for. Though I would hate myself for having missed so much of Alice’s childhood, I wanted to be here for her now. And Amber? This would be just one more wrong of mine that I needed to make up to her.
“Alpha?” said one of the elders in the meeting I was currently in.
Gods, I had been trying so hard to pay attention, but it seemed I couldn’t help being thoroughly distracted.
“I said?” “Forgive me,” I said at once. “Could you repeat what you
The elder gave me a strange look. For most of my tenure as Alpha, I had always placed work before my personal life in all things. There had been nothing more important than being an Alpha.
I had thought that would be true forever, but because of that mindset, I had lost my wife.
Now, I was learning quickly that my daughter was more important too – if she was in fact my daughter.
The stress was unbearable. This anticipation felt like I was standing on pins and needles, waiting to see what might happen next.
I wanted to know one way or the other so that I could get passed this terrible unknowing.
“Alpha?” the same elder asked again.
Oh no. I had lost my train of thought again.
I opened my mouth, embarrassingly about to ask him to repeat himself for the second time when there was a knock on the door to the meeting room. Beta ducked his head inside.
“Forgive me, but I have an urgent matter that only the Alpha King can address.”
The elder gave me a long look before nodding, dismissing me. I didn’t need his permission to leave, but as I had just offended him twice in a row, was pleased to have it nonetheless.
Standing, I exited the room.
Beta started handing me a manila envelope.
“Not here,” I said and let him through the winding Ballways of the Alpha headquarters building back to my personal office. There, I remained standing, not trusting myself to sit, and held my hand out for the manila envelope,
Beta handed it over.

Alice wasn’t my daughter.
Amber’s POV
Before I knew it, two weeks went by without hearing anything from Julian.
Perhaps I had been too harsh in accusing him of harassing me. That hadn’t truly been the case. I just never knew how to react when he had been around, as my feelings from the past mixed with my hurt and jealousy. Despite the time that had passed from when I had left him to now, everything still felt raw, like it had just happened.
I had wanted him out of my life, and I still did. Or at least, I was telling myself I did.
Yet that didn’t mean I felt no hurt now that he was gone.
Instead, I felt… empty. Like a piece of me was missing.
