The Gamma's Daughter - Secrets Revealed

Izzy's POV
After we ate and talked, Dad and Alice went off to talk. Dad actually had a genuine smile on his face. I'm so happy for him. I know he has been lonely since Mom died. He hasn't even talked to another woman like that since Mom passed. I know we have had our ups and downs, but I love seeing my dad happy. I know Mom would want him to be happy.

We are currently waiting on the vampire king and his family to get here. We hear a knock at the door. Ruby gets up and goes and answers it. A minute later, Ruby is walking in with a very handsome man. He is tall with blond hair and brown eyes. He looks to be in his early 20s, beside him is a stunning woman. She is tall and skinny with long brown hair and blue eyes. The two of them step to the side, and an older good, looking man walks in. He seems to be in his 40s. He also has blond hair and brown eyes. Next to him is a beautiful older woman. She is also tall and skinny. She has long red hair and green eyes. They walk in, followed by two younger girls. The first girl also has long red hair and green eyes. She is gorgeous. She is a little shorter than the rest. She looks to be about my age. The last girl is absolutely adorable. She seems to be about seven years old. She has brown hair and blue eyes. They are a beautiful family.

"Hello. I am King Julius," the older man smiled. "This beauty is my wife and Queen, Valerie," he said as he smiled proudly at the older woman. "This is my son Elijah and his imprinted mate, Fallon," he said as he pointed to the handsome man and the stunning woman beside him. "This is my daughter Jillian and my granddaughter Piper. Piper is Elijah and Fallon's daughter," he said as he pointed to the two girls.

"Hello. I'm Andrew Locke; this is my son Drew and my daughter Izzy. This is my mate Alice, her daughter Ruby and you know her mother, Celeste. It's so nice to meet you," Dad said as he stood up and shook King Julie's hand. "You have a beautiful family," I said as I smiled at Piper. "Thank you," King Julius proudly smiled. I looked at Drew because he was being quiet for a change, and he had his eyes glued on Jillian, and she had her eyes on him. "What's up?" I asked him as I nudged him with my elbow. "She is my mate," he turned and looked at me with a huge smile. I looked back to Jillian, and she was whispering in King Julius's ear.

He turned and looked at Drew with a smile. It seems like the goddess has already set her plan in motion. Andrew, you are mated to Ruby, a witch, and your son seems to be my daughter's imprinted mate," King Julius smiled. Dad turned and looked at Drew. Drew nodded his head with a smile. "Oh my god, that's great. I'm so happy for you," Dad said as he hugged Drew. I got up and hugged him. Congratulations, punk, I'm so happy for you," I smiled. "Thank you, brat," he replied as he hugged me.

I got up and went and hugged Jillian. "Welcome to the family, Jill. Is it OK if I call you Jill?" I asked excitedly. She laughed. "Yes, that's fine. Thank you, and welcome to our family," she replied. "Wait a minute. Does this mean my brother is now a prince?" I asked. I looked at Drew, and his smile dropped from his face. "It does, but Elija is the next king," King Julius replied. "Holy shit, you went from Gamma to Prince overnight," I laughed. Dad started laughing, and Drew looked scared. "Breath, brother, you'll be a good prince," I said as I walked up to Drew and hugged him.

"Looks like the goddess plan indeed. There are 3 Lockwood wolves left. One is mated to a witch, one to a vampire, and one to a wolf. This is her way of reuniting us all again," Celeste smiled. "You're mated to a wolf? Can I ask where he is?" Jill asked. "Well, that's a long story," I replied, feeling the sadness and heartbreak start to seep in.

We all sat at the table, and I told them about Harrison. "Oh my god Izzy, I'm so sorry," Jill said as she hugged me. "We will find out what happened. He is a vital piece of this puzzle," King Julius stated. "What do you mean, King Julius?" I asked. "Please, we are family; it's just Julius or your majesty, he laughed. We all laughed. It's nice to know Vampires have a sense of humor.

"What I mean is. You are an essential piece to this puzzle. This puzzle doesn't work without you and your mate. When you and your mate mark each other, you will become the strongest pair in the world; you two will be damn near unstoppable. That is why there has never been a female born in your family. It wasn't needed. Now our world is crumbling and filled with chaos. It's only fitting for a female to be born to help fix it. You and your mate will rule over all of us and give us a happy, peaceful life. The rogue king doesn't want peace. He will want you to be his mate and mark him so he can become unstoppable and rule over all of us. He doesn't know that only your true fated mate will gain that strength," Julius stated.

"What the hell? So what will happen if they find out who my mate is before we can mark each other?" I asked. "They will either kill him or use him to get to you, and then kill him," Julius replied. "I have to get to him now," I said as I jumped up. "Andrew and Drew have to mark and mate with Alice and Jillian. I know this isn't ideal, but you become stronger once marked and mated. Your mates will also be stronger. We don't know what we will be running into," Julius stated. I looked over at Drew, Dad, Alice, and Jillian; they all looked embarrassed. Alice and Jillian's faces were bright red. "Well, get to it. We have to save him and the pack," I stated.

The four of them went off, leaving the rest of us to come up with a plan. "Izzy, we will save them all," Elijah said as he grabbed my hand and patted it. "Thank you, Elijah. I hope so," I replied. "Izzy, we are family; we have your back. We will do everything we can to help you save them," Fallen said as she hugged me. "Thank you guys so much. I really appreciate you guys helping us," I replied as I hugged her back.

An hour later, Dad and Alice come out smiling. I see Alice is marked. I looked at Dad's neck, and he was marked too. "How did you do that?" I asked as I pointed to Dad's neck. "I bit him like you guys do and spelled it so it would leave a scar. Now he has my mark, and everyone will know he is taken," Alice smiled before she kissed Dad. Twenty-five minutes later, Drew and Jill came out. Jill is marked, and Drew also had a mark. Jill saw me looking at Drew's neck. I bit him but did not drink any blood. I injected him with some of my venom, leaving my mark," she smiled. "Will your venom change him or hurt him in any way?" I asked. "No. I didn't give him enough for that," she replied.

"What took so long?" I asked as I shoved Drew. "You try making love when you have so much pressure on you to get it done. We had just met. We both were nervous. We talked for a while before we mated," he replied. "Awe, I don't know if that is sweet or funny," I giggled. "It's sweet, asshole," Drew laughed.
