The Alpha Who Saved Me

The Alpha Who Saved Me By Stacy Rush Chapter 103

CHAPTER 103

Declan

One step forward, and two steps back. That’s how I’m feeling right now where Quinn is

concerned. I shouldn’t have gotten upset with her because she was trying to help, but I

wish she would have come to me first. I know I’ve always questioned whether or not

Holden is really mine even after paternity was verified, but it’s already been a year and I

love the little guy with everything I’ve got. I’d give my life for him, so I’m not sure how I

would feel finding out that he isn’t really mine.

I’ve got to find a way to make things right with Quinn again, especially if we really are

mates. I never meant to make it sound like everything she has been going through is not

as important as my personal matters. I wasn’t thinking when I said what I said, but trying

to get her to talk to me, so I can explain, is going to be hard.

Enter title…

Quinn is hard-headed and stubborn, which are a few of the reason why I love her, but it

can be so frustrating when it’s turned on me. I’ ve tried calling her a few times this

morning, but she continues to ignore my calls, so all I can do is give her time, I guess.

My Beta comes walking through the door since I had left it wide open. I always try to

keep the open-door policy where as long as it’ s open, you can come in, but most people

knock out of respect, except my best friend.

“Hey Dec, my sister just stopped by. She said that this was to be delivered to you and

she is the only one that she trusted to deliver it, so she came herself, but she didn’t want

to be the one to give it to you.”

I look between him and the manilla envelope a bit strangely before holding out my hand

to take it, “Did she say anything else?”

“She said something about being the one to find it and then forgot about it?” He

responds confused by what she meant.

I freeze because I don’t need to open this to know what is inside of it. Dropping it on top C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

of my desk, I just stare at it as if it’s going to jump up and attack me. The contents of that

envelope can do irrevocable damage and I don’t know if I can make myself open it.

“What is it?” Carter asks.

“Information that I don’t know if I’m ready for, or if I ever want to know.” My voice is low

and husky as I continue to stare at it.

“Can you enlighten me just a little bit? What information are we talking about?” My Beta

is getting concerned by my reaction, but I’ m just stunned at the fact that the answers

that I wanted to know over a year ago, are now sitting in front of me.

“It’s DNA test results between me and my son. Quinn had Dr. Sands perform the test

without me knowing, and the results are inside that envelope.”

“Oh wow!” Carter now stares at the envelope the same way I am, “What are you going to

do?”

“I honestly don’t know…”

“Okay… well, let me ask you this,” Carter sits down in front of my desk and leans forward

with his elbows on his knees, “If those results say that Holden is not your son, are you

going to disown him? After raising that boy as your own for his first year of life and

knowing that you are the only real parent he has, would you disown him?” My best friend

and I stare intensely at each other. He and I both know what my answer is going to be.

“Holden is my life; he always will be. Nothing will ever change that; he is MY son and the

future Alpha of the Storm River pack.” I clench my jaw just thinking about someone trying

to take him. away from me, “Do I open it, or do I throw it away, and forget all about it?”

“Well, if it isn’t going to matter either way, you should probably look at it,” when I start to

speak, he holds his hand up, stopping me, “Only because there may come a time where

he will need something from his biological father, like a blood transfusion or whatnot. It

also would be nice to know genetics and such, but most importantly, he will want to know

when he grows up; you can’ t keep him in the dark.”

Of course, Carter is right, it’s why I chose him as my Beta. This is something that we

can’t hide, Holden would never forgive me if he knew that I knew there was a possibility

that he wasn’t my blood, but I was too selfish to find out.

“Just because you will know the truth doesn’t mean you have to contact the real father,

that’s on her, but I would, and I would also make him legally yours. You are an Alpha,

and you were duped into believing he is yours; you have a rightful claim, Dec. This isn’t

the human world; we have our own laws.”

Once again, my friend is right, we aren’t human and since I am an Alpha and I’ve been

raising him, I even have the right to take him away from Lila. I never wanted to do it

because she is his mother, but I will do it in a heartbeat if I have to.

Picking up the envelope, my senses pick up on blood. Frowning, I open the envelope

and dump the contents on my desk. I sit back as I stare at the blood-smeared envelope,

and I can only assume that it’s my cousin’s blood. A sadness comes over me. Gavin and

I were finally starting to mend our relationship when he was taken from us.

I vowed to my dying cousin that I would protect his mate and his pup, but silently, I

vowed that I would make sure his pack was returned to the greatness that it once held

years ago. Granted, mine and Quinn’s were always stronger than the Blue River pack,

but it was much stronger before Daniel took it over, and I will make sure it’s stronger

once more for when Ash takes his rightful place as it’s Alpha.

Carter gets up to leave, but I stop him, “Don’t go; please stay.” Taking his seat once

again, he sits back and waits for me to open the envelope.

Using the letter opener, I make a nice slit in the top of the envelope and pull out the

folded sheet. I close my eyes and take a few deep breaths in before unfolding it. It’s all

mumble jumble until I get to the bottom and read the percentages. My heart races as I

drop the paper on my desk and go stand by the window. A few tears slip out from the

corners of my eyes, but I wipe them away.

I hear Carter pick up the sheet of paper and then his eyes are on me a bit confused,

“What’s wrong? It says that Holden is you’re your biological son.”

I grin and choke out a laugh, “Yes, he is! I thought for sure that he wasn’t, but there is no

way the b*tch could have messed with these results.”

Oh Goddess, such a huge weight has been lifted with this news. Granted, I was ready to

fight anyone and everyone who tried taking him away from me, and now I don’t have to

worry about it. He really is my son. I wish I could share this news with Quinn, and thank

her for doing this for me, but I know she isn’t ready to hear from me yet, so I will wait.

After all, she will have to forgive me at some point because I know that she belongs to

me.
