“As the alphas know, we got all of your DNA results back. I’m not sure the best way to go about this so I am going to call the names you have been going by. I am going to ask that you walk up and stand in front of me. From there, I will tell you what I know.”
I watched as all the girls were visibly shaking. It occurred to me that it might have been helpful if the girls were here but I guess it was too late for that. A few of the girls were holding hand, like they had formed a friendship over the time they were held captive.
“Could Grace, Samantha, Vivian and Kenzie come forward?”
I watched a four girls walked forward. Some weren’t too much younger than us and some were more around our age. “Do you remember anything from your past?” I asked before Alec got started.
“No, we tired everything.” The oldest girl shook her head. Tears filled her eyes but it was her shaking hands that wrapped around the other girl’s shoulds that got my attention.
“I called you four because you have the same story. Everyone needs to understand that when you become a ranking member, you are required to submit your DNA to the database for these reasons. So, when we took your blood, we were able to cross match it with those who have done the same. From that, we can figure out where you were from and match it with the missing persons report.” He paused and waited until they all nodded that they understood. “The thing you all have in common is the fact that your DNA traced you back to packs that got attacked and are not active anymore. The four of you were presumed dead and everyone else in the pack were killed. However, you do have family that has been connected to you. I have not reached out to them as I felt like that was something you could do when the time is right or I could help you as well. These folders are yours and I have placed your chosen name on front. With that being said, you are the remaining ranking members alive, making the pack yours. You have options as to what you want to do going forward. You can join one of our packs as a regular member or you can go back and claim your land. In those folders, there is a paper, you can either take back your birth name and claim the rights to the pack name and land or you can keep your chosen name and put the past behind you. You don’t have to decide right now.”
By the end of the truth bomb, all the girls had their mouths wide open and their gazes fixated on their folders. One by one, they each came forward, grabbed their file and sat back down in their seats.
The mood in the room was very tense. Some of the other girls had silent tears running down their faces. I sensed more fear than anything but their gazes at those four girls were nothing but sympathy.
“Can Hannah, Brittany, Nova, Tracy, Kelly, and Victoria come stand in front of me please.”
All the girls moved in front of Alec and stood there. Some where holding hands and some seem to just hold onto themselves. My eyes went over and realized Lars’s beta and the girl hadn’t moved. I wasn’t sure which option was the worst in this situation.
“Everyone else can step forward.” Alec shifted and pulled out the smallest of the folders. “Your results are a little different. The hits we got were from fifty to seventy-five years ago. Looking further into it, there isn’t any missing posters. The relatives you had show up died natural causes. Where we would see son or daughter take over, the alpha names switch. There aren’t any records of your birth on any files. Where we can trace the others back to a certain pack or territory, it appears you were raised as rogues almost. I don’t have any evidence to show if your parents too you and ran from something or didn’t like the change of alpha so they went to leave. Basically, I don’t have answers for you. All I can tell you is who your grandparents were. There isn’t any evidence of foul play or an declaration of war. We will keep looking but I don’t even know what your birth name was. I’m sorry I don’t have any more information.”
They each took their folders and sat back down. Everyone was silent for awhile before I stood up to conclude this meeting. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to say something to ease their minds.
“Do we have any options?” One of the girls asked, suddenly. How long do we have to decide what we want to do?
“What I want you all to know is you are free.” I started my speech.

Terrible writing! Pieces that are unreadable. Paragraphs missing. Poorly translated. Makes it very difficult to read and then you miss half of the story line....
Yooh there hasn't been Alec's POV from the start and having only one person's side of the story is overwhelming 😞...
