Thank you Raine10 for giving 3 power stones.
Adenos knew it was impossible to avoid this issue. Realizing that it's best to get straight to the point;
'No. it is not. There are some new pieces of information that I learned today from our Gama, who is third in command with the permission of our former Luna. This information is about you, me, and Aida.'
When Adrian heard this, he lifted his head from the food plate and stared Adenos in the eyes.
'How?' he asked frowning.
'Well, so did you know that Dirk, your father, had another mate and pup before your mother, Dana?'
'Isn't my mum the fated mate of my father? They were fated mates. My father couldn't possibly be with someone else, could he? Nobody ever said anything like that to me. 'You're not telling the truth!' He slid his chair back and stood up from the table. He had the sensation of having a beehive within his mind, which was humming. He felt that he'd pass out.
Then he heard Demus calling out to him in his head. 'Adrien. I know what's going on, so relax and take a seat. Pay attention to Adenos. I assure you that you will not be disappointed. We sometimes hear things that we don't want to hear. That is, nevertheless, the reality of existence. That is why you have a right to know these details.' 'Sit down and pay attention!'
Adrian uncomfortably squeezed his fists and stood for a time, as if attempting to come to an agreement with himself, that drew Adenos' attention.
'What happened? Who were you arguing with? Come and sit please.'
'No, I wasn't arguing with anyone, I was just thinking.' Then he returned to the table.
Adenos was sure it was something else, but he didn't force Adrian to say it.
'Are you ready to hear the rest now?'
He hummed in confirmation.
'Yes, I understand how difficult it is to accept, but believe me when I say that it was a major surprise for me as well. Remember how you inquired about my mother? My mum was someone I never met. Or, to put it another way, a spell cast by my mother had wiped all my memories of her. You have no idea how difficult this is for a small pup. When you walked for the first time, when you shifted for the first time, or in short, all your firsts were to live without a mother, not having a mother when everyone else had a mother….'
Because of these sad memories, Adenos hesitated for a moment. He fought the tears that had collected in his eyes and attempted to focus on the present. He'd never met his mother, but Adrian could at least answer any questions he had about her. Yes, he was aware that it would take time. Adenos was well aware that Adrian was still wary of him.
Adrian was silently watching him. Adenos' inability to recognize his mother was heart breaking. But he couldn't figure out why the problem had reached Adenos' mother.
'Stupid boy, I have no idea what kind of Alpha you're going to be. You're still blind to the truth!' For a brief while, Adrian was frightened as Demus roared in his head.
'What are you yelling about? What was it that I didn't get? I'm still trying to wrap my head around the reality that my father chose someone else over his fated mate and that my mother was a witch.'
'Well. Consider this: if your father was with your mother, who was the other lady and pup he abandoned? Consider this: if Adenos' mother is capable of casting spell, what and who is she?' asked Demus.
Adrian glanced at Adenos for a second, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Adenos pushed all these negative thoughts to the back of his mind. Adenos was about to continue when he noticed Adrian's eyes had widened in surprise.
