Destined

- 22 -

I would like to apologise for this chapter for being short but the next chapter will be longer. I'm in a rush to write this chapter and having a bit of writer's block but I did what I can.

My uploading time is now being extended. 7am - 8pm. I'm changing it because Wattpad app won't let me upload through phones now :( so I have to do it whenever I get home or when I have time to go to college. >.<

I hope you all enjoy! :)

P.S. It's in Alex's POV & don't forget to vote!

As soon as my parents walk in I felt them tense up behind me and eyed Mr and Mrs Hemmings. I could understand the power they have but the guilt look they were giving Mr and Mrs Hemmings was what's been bothering me. I look at Cherry thinking she knows what's going on but the look she gave me tells me that she too is in the dark.

"It's Mr and Mrs Taylor, isn't?" Mr Hemmings said but his voice was slightly off. My parents can only nod nervously as they took their seat while Cherry and I stood behind Mr and Mrs Hemmings. Mr Hemmings then sigh before looking at my parents with tired look. "I think your son have the right to know his lineage, don't you think?"

My parents look at each other and I know they were arguing through the mind link. But it seems like my dad was loosing this one as my mom gave dad her signature puppy-dog eyes. My dad sighs before nodding his head. "You are right." He finally said before looking at me straight in the eye.

"Darling, you might want to sit down." My mom said patting the space next to her. Robotically I sat down next to her before my mom starts to cry. "You grown so much but I guess we couldn't protect you forever."

"What we are about to tell you is a secret we kept to protect you." My dad said. I look at Cherry who was now frowning at my dad but notice I was looking at her as she look at me and gave me a reassuring smile. "When our pack disbands, we didn't only hide where we are from but we also hide our real last name."

"Darling, our last name isn't really Taylor." My mom said before looking at my dad who nods his head. "Our last name is Wilkinson."

I look at my parents like they were crazy. Who wouldn't think they are crazy. I attend my Werewolves 101 during freshmen. I know that the Wilkinson use to be the beta of the Hemmings packs until the Hemmings made the Wilkinson run his own pack when the Hemmings' pack is getting over crowded.

The pack then was split to two where the Hemmings stayed as pure blood members and a few who joined the pack longer while the one who wanted to join is sent to the Midnight pack where the Wilkinson runs the pack as the alpha. They run the pack side by side for centuries but when the Hemmings had been slaughtered, our old pack stood by ourselves until we had to dismember to protect them. We don't know where they went but they had a strict order to hide their past.

My guess is, my parents hide their last name to protect the family and things seem to click in place. How Bruce's orders or his parents rarely had an effect on me. "So I'm a Wilkinson?" I finally chock out and my parents nod their head.
