Part 4 - Telling Family and Secret Revealed

Few days after the funeral had gone by, and Bella knew she had tell the family about what she knew, and she also invited Rick Mora, her real father not that he knew this yet aswell the siblings of hers that he had adopted some years ago and Tokala Clifford was also still here in town, so she invited them all over for a lunch that she made to give Pearl, her adoptive mother a break from the kitchen duty.

Bella stood in the kitchen doing the lunch for their meeting, and while she did, their guests were coming over and Rick could feel the pull in his chest lessen of being near his imprint again.

Soon she was done, and came into the living room, and saw all of them there, she gave a brilliant smile despite the pain in her eyes was clear to be seen, and it made most of them wonder what caused her to have that in her eyes, and she said

"Lunch is ready, guys." And with that they all stood up and went with her before them, back into the kitchen, where she clearly had made up a quite feast for all of them, and alot aswell of it.

Soon laugther and talks about Russell filled the room and it made Bella's heart warm to talk about him, the man who adopted her first before her real father had adopted her aswell. Not he knew the truth yet, but she knew it would be painful for him and the two he had adopted to hear being true.

After the lunch was eaten, it was Tokala who said

"Uhm not to be rude or anything, but why am I here for?" Bella sighed, as she then said

"I called this meeting, for I need your help, for if I go back to Forks, something really bad will happen to me, that I do wish to happen."

Many of them looked confused but also worried for her sake, and Rick had worry for his imprint and mate like the others did, but he also could feel the panic, fear from her in their bond.

Pearl said

"Bella, dear what is this all about, what make you fear to go back to Forks?"

Eric too had that on his tongue to ask, but Pearl said it before him. She took a deep breath, then said;

"As you all know I went to Forks to stay with C-Charlie for my so-called bitch of a mother and her new husband Phil was off on the roads for his work, anyways before I left to go to Charlie's. I found out something from my selfish bitch of a mother who was also drunk of her ass that evening, and that something was that shocked and angered me to the boiling point, and I had to leave her ass in the bathroom, before I did something I could regret of doing to her despite she would have deserve it."

Tatanka who could see the tears in her eyes, and also the one whom she was most close with, said

"What was it she told you that evening that made you feel so, Bell?"

Bella sighed then said to shock of them all most of all Eric's shock;

"Charlie is not my real biological father, never was, instead it is someone that my mother slept with all those years ago, months before she even found out she was pregnant and already married to Charlie at that time aswell. Actually, Papa, you are my real father. My mother told me your name, for she wanted to have a child so badly, and you were there drunk yourself at the time and you two slept together, not you would know or remember as she got you hammered."

Many gasped as the said man of her first tale of things to talk about, sat down in his chair with a heavy gasp and shock on his face, and the adopted siblings of hers were also shocked of this being said, and stood by his sides, holding onto his shoulder, and Bella gave him a piece of a paper, where it stood clear as day that he was her biological father.

He only said

"You are my daugther, of my blood?" Bella nodded as she said

"Yes."

He then stood up and wrapped his arms around her, and she finally burst into relieved, happy tears that he still loves her, wants her as his and most of all accepted the fact she was his real, biological daugther, but he also was worried of what she meant earlier if she went back to Charlie, that she was in danger, danger of what.

He pulled away, and dried her cheeks, before he said

"Why did you say you would be in danger if you go back to Charlie's place?" Bella sighed, looked down then up again, then she said to shock and anger them all by;

"For he plans for me to be married off to a much younger guy than myself, who is just a child himself at age 14, and Charlie's precious god-son at that, and he would do it weither I want it or not."

She now closed her eyes, and before too long, yells of loud what's and when she opened her eyes, she saw the backdoor to the house was open and there infront of herself, she now saw Rick, her brothers and sisters aswell her true father shift into wolves and bears, and she gasped of this sight.

She knew something was off about them and their body temperature but she took it as in a ailment of their bloodlines that they inheritated from previous members of the families.

She being still upset about Russell's untimely death and all, she said

"What the actual fuck is going on here?" She said now in high pitched voice still raw of the crying.

And Tantanka who phased back, he told her everything, then she said to shock of them all;

"You hid this from me, how could you, I thought we were family! But clearly I was wrong."

And before any of them could react she took off outside and into a car that stood out there and took off in it. It had been hidden from her for years, why?

Earlier; after Bella had left them there, Eric said

"Why did she just leave for?" And Tatanka who had been one of them who had phased, said swearing

"Fuck I knew she would be upset that we didn't tell her about us being shifters. She never liked secrets or lies, or even things being kept from herself knowing about them too."

Christina, his wife, rubbed his back gently before she said while biting on her lip;

"She shouldn't be alone or drive when she is like this." And with that Tatanka took off after both Eric and Rick said "I'm coming with you." And off they went in their forms after Bella and the car she drove in.

Back to Bella and the present time;

Why didn't they tell her, why not her real father tell her this beforehand and so on, she thought while driving on the road. She thought why keep something like this from me, wasn't I part of the family like the rest of them? Did my other adoptive siblings know this before me?

Before she knew it, she saw 2 wolves and a bear next to her car, and she screamed before feeling something familiar around their forms, and she pulled over to the side and stepped out of the car.

Eric being the bear, shifted back into his human form, getting dressed, while she squeaked and turned around of seeing him naked despite he was her father and all, and he then said

"Bells, we need to talk about this."
