THE CURSED QUEEN

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

I really can't believe it. For 12 years they lied to me, never for once told me I wasn't theirs. I always thought Julian and I have the same father but turns out Alex is jullian’s real dad after all. I squeeze my eyes shut in pain as I remember the conversation I had with them last night.

I stepped into the living room, Alex is sitting on the couch, mum is arranging the plates on the dining table. I don't see Julian, but I know he will be down soon.

They are about to have dinner without me, it kind of stings no it actually stings badly.

“What do you expect, they sit and mop then die out of hunger because you left home yesterday night” a voice in my head says. I don't even bother to freak out since I know it's my wolf.

“Honey you came back, I was so worried” mum rushes to me pulling me into a tight hug. I sniff a little before letting my tears drop.

“I am so sorry baby, I should have told you. I just didn't want you to feel out of place” she murmurs crying while patting my back.

I wrap my hands around her, hugging her tightly and crying slowly too. It's not her fault that my parents left me. If anything I should thank her, if it weren't for her I wouldn't be here. I love her and no matter what even if she didn't give birth to me, she will always be my mum.

“Tell me, how did you find me?” I ask, cleaning my tears with the back of my palm.

She sighs, with a slight nudge from her I move to the couch and sit. Alex glares at me, but I don't even mind him.

“Mel!!!!” Julian screams, running down the stairs. He jumps on me, hugging me like I haven't been home in years. I smile widely, even if they are not my real family, they still love me and are still my family. Well except Alex.

“ I love you sis, and I always will. I don't care if we don't share the same blood” he sniffs, tears rolling down his eyes. It breaks my heart.

“ You know I love you too Julie” I murmured while rubbing his hair. He jumps out of my hold.

“ You just said you love me” he states, his eyes glowing in happiness.

“Me?” I question pointing at myself in disbelief.

“Yes you said you love me” he whines, I shake my head with a smile.

“ Guess you heard wrong, you know how I feel about saying that word” I groan, hoping he believes my acting. He rolls his eyes, grumbling as he walks to the dining table.

“Why were you crying anyway? Think I died or what?” I ask, my eyes glinting in mischief. I know he is going to tease me or something, but my eyes tear up at his next words.

“ I thought you would hate us forever and never come back home. I was scared to lose you” he says, his face sad.

“You are never going to lose me,” I said, rubbing his hand. He smiles a little.

“Can we eat already?” Alex grains, glaring hard at me. What the f*ck is his problem. I know he hates me, and quite frankly I hate him too after all he put me through. But his glare is so pronounced today, usually he acts nice to me in front of mom and Julian.

I roll my eyes ignoring him. After dinner, we watch a movie as a family before I head to my room. On getting inside my room, I try to shut the door but notice something or rather someone held it back.
