Bella POV
A brother? I had a brother? What kind of a sick joke was that? I could have believed anything except someone claiming to be my brother. I was my mother's only daughter. She never mentioned anything to do with having another child nor hear rumours from the pack members.
" Bella, you have to be open minded when..." Asher started but I cut him off.
" I know. I just want to see for myself." I answered and Asher nodded, looking assured.
"Then I shall not stand in ceremony." He declared before talking my hand and leading me away.
We walked in silence to the guest room, Asher's presence was like a solid and comforting weight beside me I didn't know I needed.
My mind was a whirlwind of disbelief, anger, and a tiny, treacherous flicker of something I refused to name.
Was it hope
