Chapter 222
“Wait?! Osiston? As in Warrior Osiston, is your cousin and my uncle cousin or whatever” | feel like
my brain is tuming to mush with all the new information. “| may need a map for the family tree we
have going right now and you have only told me about like five people.” ° He chuckles, “| promise
there aren’t too many more players to introduce you to, but understanding who’s in the game may
save your life in the future.” | give a dry chuckle, but the serious look on his face tells me this is one
of those things | really need to take in and understand, there are no jokes here. | took a deep breath
and nodded, indicating he could go on.
“Thomas taught his son and daughter our history, like the Goddess instructed, he ruled fairly and
encouraged his son and daughter to both pursue their strengths. But the animosity and hate were
being perpetuated on the other side of the family tree. Robert eventually found his mate and had a
son, Vincent, and together they have pursued deeper into our lineage than even | have. Any female
with our bloodline is being captured and tortured for their special abilities. Another reason for finding
you and bringing you here. But I will get to that in a minute.
“Thomas sister, Katherine, did the same thing. She instilled in her kids to take care of our world,
protect our people,
especially with humans on the rise. She had three kids, a son and twin daughters. While Katherine,
her mate, her kids and their mates were out training on the territory there was an attack. They were
all older and well trained, but the attackers used all manner of weapons including drugs like liquid
wolfsbane, so even the special abilities they possessed amongst them didn’t help. Everyone was
killed except Claire, one of the twins. Her mate died that day, but rumor has it she was pregnant.
She went into hiding, no one here had any record of it, but someone had to have helped her
escape. | was able to finally track the Elder down and follow some leads. She had a daughter,
named Sophia, who settled with her mate as the Betas of the Blue Crescent pack, and had you.”
He reached forward and wiped my cheek. | hadn’t realized tears were falling down my face.
“You come from a very long line of fierce female warriors.
Leaders who are hard pressed to be taken down. | don’t know much about Claire’s time away from
the Royal Pack.
She used different names to keep her identity hidden for her safety and the safety of her unborn
pup. But | do know that she was heavily pursued by the bitter half of our family line.
As | started really tracking her movements, | noticed a pattern of attacks that surrounded where she
was rumored to be. Once | found that pattern, it got a little easier. | just wish | could have found her
trail sooner, you may still have your mom, if | had.” He hung his head like my mom’s death was his
fault.
“She died in childbirth, you could not have any control over that.” | said to him “That is not entirely
true, and many people would not want you to know this part of your story, but it’s important. With all
of the abilities that our first born females have, child rearing can be dangerous for them. They
actually cannot procreate with anyone other than their Goddess given mate. You don’t want details,
but the other half has tried.” | shuddered at the implications there. “They must be heavily watched
when pregnant and in labor and their wolves must be kept calm and under control. Not an easy
task.
