Alpha's replacement bride is destined mate-Chapter 205 I am of your family

​

South, Palace

There was a soft knock at the door, and Emily thought it was Dolly coming. So she opened the door, but the man standing outside was Adam.

" May I come in?" Adam asked softly.

Emily gave a look of hesitation. She did not know if she should let Adam in. After all, they had just met, even though Dolly had said Adam was her brother. But she felt like a stranger to Adam. She had just arrived in this strange place, and was wary of everything around her.

Adam seemed to see Emily’s hesitation, he smiled and said, "Why don’t I accompany you for a walk, and by the way, how about introducing you to the environment in the palace?"

Emily raised her eyes to Adam’s. There was always a faint smile on his handsome face, and his smile looked sincere and without malice. So Emily let her guard down, and she nodded.

Adam led Emily slowly forward, and they walked along the paths of the palace gardens, where the tulip-blossoms, in full bloom, perfumed the air around them. "This is the palace where our family has lived for generations, every flower and stone carries history." Adam said softly, pointing to a fountain not far away, "That fountain is hundreds of years old, it has seen countless celebrations and important moments for the family."

They walked on, passing an old wall with beautiful frescoes. "These murals depict the heroic deeds of our ancestors, who pioneered the frontier, guarded the people, and created the prosperity we have now." Adam’s eyes were full of pride, and Emily watched them intently, a thrill of curiosity rising in her heart.

Adam then takes Emily to a hall where ancient weapons and ornate costumes are on display. "These weapons were used by our forefathers on the battlefield, and every scratch is a symbol of honor. And those costumes, which were worn during important ceremonies, represent the dignity of the family." Adam patiently explained. Emily caressed the old objects tenderly, as if she could feel the thickness of the family history.

At last they came to a high terrace overlooking the whole palace. "This is the foundation of our family, Emily, and you are an important part of it." Adam looked at Emily with tender eyes.

Emily gazed at the beauty before her. She had a new sense of the home and the palace. Emily, meanwhile, was puzzled, for she was Adam’s sister, but why had Dolly told her that she had been brought up in the country? Of the circumstances of her birth Dolly did not detail them to her. Could it be that Dolly was deliberately concealing something?

" Am I really your sister? " Emily asked uncertainly.

"Of course. " Adam answered affirmatively.

"But where are our parents? " Emily asked curiously, the only family she had seen since she came to the palace was this brother. Had she no other home?

"Your mother is dead, as is mine. " A flash of sadness flashed in Adam’s eyes, but he quickly regained his composure." Our father is ill. I will take you to him later."

"We weren’t born to the same mother, right? " Emily asked, "So that’s why I was born in the country as a child? Your mother was a queen and mine was just a mistress or..."

" Emily, on the subject of your birth. I think it would be better for your father to tell you. " Adam interrupted her gently, "That’s a story between previous generations."

Emily let out a little sigh. At that moment she could feel deeply the pain caused by the loss of her memories. She had no idea who she was or who her parents were.

How should she fill in the missing memories?

" You still don’t believe what I’m saying?" Adam’s gaze fell upon Emily, and he saw the doubt and uneasiness in her eyes.

"How about we try to establish a psychic link? " Adam suggested.

" Now?" Emily was surprised.

Adam nodded, "In addition to partners, family members can also form a spiritual connection. If we link successfully, then you won’t have to doubt what I’m saying anymore, will you?"

" But we were not born from the same mother, can a mind link be established even with such a relationship?" Emily asked uncertainly.

Usually, only children born to common parents can establish a psychological bond between relatives. And while two children from the same parent may not always be able to establish a psychic link, that does not mean they are not related.

" Let’s give it a try." Adam encouraged Emily, " Now, give me your hand."

So Emily put her hands up, and Adam held them tight. " Now, close your eyes." Adam said softly, " Let your mind calm down. Feel the wind, feel the sun."

Emily shut her eyes and tried to relax. She felt everything about her calmly. The sound of the breeze echoed in her ears, and the sunlight warmed her body. At that moment a wave of heat passed slowly through Adam’s palm into Emily’s body.

Emily heard a voice say to her, " Emily, can you hear me now?"

"Yes. " Emily replied with a voice from her heart.

"I can feel your inner doubts and insecurities. " Adam said to Emily with a mind link, "But don’t worry, I will be by your side. I will protect you won’t let any danger come near you."

Adam’s words touched Emily, and she opened her eyes to see Adam looking at her. The sunlight threw a faint golden glow over Adam, and his smile was so warm and intimate.

" Emily, we are family." Adam touched Emily’s forehead with his, his voice was calm and soft as always, " This is your real home."

Emily’s eyes reddened a little, as tears welled up in them. She could feel the genuine emotion in Adam’s words. It was like a trickle of water running into her heart.

Now Emily knew that she was no longer alone.

" Adam," Emily suddenly remembered something. She asked cautiously, " Dolly said I was once married to a Northern Alpha. Is this true?"

Adam’s eyes bulged slightly, and the smile froze for a split second. Then he slowly released Emily’s hand and turned his head to look ahead, as if to avoid the question.

There was a short silence before Adam spoke, " He’s dead."
