You supported me in a false search for my past, but now I see that maybe you had the therapist stimulate a rejection reaction and discourage me from searching any further. Right?”My father pursed his lips and I cursed through my teeth because I had made a correct deduction.It
IanI couldn't believe what they were telling me.I looked exactly like the boy in the photo, but I could easily be some kind of doppelganger. Nothing proved that I was the son of that Alpha, so I would stand my ground to the end.“I'm sorry to tell you this, but this photo album doesn't prove anything,” I said firmly.“The only thing that would prove it would be a magical blood test with your grandmother Gloryn, your father's mother,” said the Archibald. “That's why we want to ask you to look at the possibility of you taking the test to rule everything out and that—”I shook my head immediately without letting him finish a sentence.It was unheard of.Not only was the request going outside my boundaries, but it felt like a complete transgression. I couldn't believe it. I didn't know what had happened to those people, let alone what was behind the vision or the centuries-old prophecy. I was not the person they were looking for.“I'm done here,” I said immediately. “I'm not going to ge
IanI looked at Archer in bewilderment.A flash of lucidity went through my head and I got out of his pickup truck.“God, if you exist, please make me wake up from this nightmare,” I whispered in disbelief.I felt like I was inside the dream of a dream and it was the strangest situation I had ever experienced in my life up to that point. I really doubted my mental health, so I shook my head hard in a vain attempt to bring myself back to reality.Archer disagreed with that.“It's not a nightmare; it's reality,” Archer said once he got out of his pickup truck and approached me.“You can't come and talk to me about my so-called biological parents,” I said angrily.It seemed easy for him to say things, but in my head, I couldn't process it. I should have been running away from him, understanding that he was a beast, but there I was, standing before him with no clear idea why I was humoring him.“You have a biological family that loved you and never abandoned you,” Archer said firmly. “I k
I felt like killing that asshole, Paul.Death was what that bastard deserved to get.When Carol explained to me what Paul had done to Ian months earlier, I set about the task of investigating the fucking traitor. That's how I discovered that Paul was a two-faced man who pretended to be charming and the epitome of decency, when really, he was a good-for-nothing who rubbed shoulders with troubled people.That's why I had to be more careful about protecting Ian.I didn't trust a narcissist like Paul to sit still.I had a valid reason at the time.My wolf was thirsty for blood, enough to tear apart all the idiots lying unconscious on the floor. They had dared to touch Ian and that was a crime for us.No one could touch him.Kill them all, said my wolf, Roy.His idea was a very good one, but I couldn't do justice that way.I can't do it; I have to keep Veltonne's pact; if I attack humans here, we will have more problems, I told him, and Roy growled in my head angrily.I understood his frus
A whole week passed since Archer started working at my side.The first three days were total chaos, then Archer picked up the pace and took care of all the tedious part of digital categorization. He was fast at it, so because of that I was able to arrange the new library shelving properly without falling behind.We reached a point of good efficiency and my days were quiet next to Archer as he told me stories about the Reserve and avoided anything about his life. Although I understood that he was a private person, I felt that his avoidance of the subject was unusual. However, it was nice to know him; he was not as quiet as I was, he had an opinion for everything and he was always cooperative with everyone.He was a perfect gentleman, to the point that Carol was ecstatic to have him in the library.“The He-Man is a visual spectacle and he's divine as a person,” my best friend said that Tuesday while we were having lunch and Archer had gone to buy some candy she liked. “He's nice; he loo
IanArcher walked me home after I picked up my things.He seemed intent on taking care of me, which at one point I thought was a sweet gesture; however, I could take care of myself. Paul took me by surprise and took advantage of the fact that I was not a violent person. I used to measure my reactions well, as well as my strength. I tended to be a little weaker than the rest, but I made up for it with my intelligence.Or so I kept telling myself to feel better about myself.The situation was that I would not let Paul hurt me again; I would have everything prepared so that he would understand that it was no, it was not no.“Do you live far away?” asked Archer.“No, a few blocks,” I said calmly. “It's not necessary to drop me off at home.”“It is,” Archer said. “That man is violent.”“Well, you proved yourself to be violent,” I said firmly and Archer scowled at me. “You kicked him and didn't give him a chance to even throw a punch at you.”“I exercised legitimate self-defense toward a co
IanTraining Archer was something of a mission impossible.He was a novice in every sense of the word, so much so that I wondered if he actually took the librarian course. I didn't want to judge him, but he wasn't giving me anything good to report to Rob; all I was seeing was one disaster after another.“I'm sorry,” Archer said again as he realized he had miscategorized a book in the system. “I know I sound stupid at the moment, but—”“Relax,” I said calmly. “You're very stressed and on edge; you need to calm down. It's your first day.”“I'm looking like an idiot in front of you,” Archer said as if that really bothered him.His reaction surprised me, so I was honest.“Why do you want to be a librarian?” I asked him seriously.Archer frowned and then looked at me as if he too was questioning the answer, which was a bad sign.“You can be honest,” I said and Archer sighed.“I'm here because they helped me get in,” Archer said and I nodded. “I need a steady job and a friend from the gover
IanThe rain was coming down hard that spring morning and I was soaked through and through.I didn't know if it was a bad omen, but I did know that I would be chilled to the bone if I didn't run the remaining block to my work. I crossed the street with alacrity and ran carefully until I reached the library where I worked."Ian, you're soaking wet,” Henry, the doorman, said with concern. “I think there are towels in stock and something you can use to change your clothes.”I sighed in relief and Henry smiled at me.He was an old man who cared about everyone and who, like few others in Veltonne, treated me with great care because of my history. For that, I respected him a lot.“Thank you, Henry,” I said before taking off my jacket.I shook it out a bit and walked into the library waving to everyone.The cold was chilling my skin a bit, so I went straight to the bathroom to get some hot coffee. On the way there, however, I didn't expect to find Carol, my best friend, trying to see our bos
