Chapter 176 

The revelation hit me like a punch 

I looked at Sharik, my mind racing 

If this was Leo’s brother, could be be the one who had du how? The same man who had tried to take it at begy 

Sharik, seemingly sensing my confusion, fed tattoo Lan 

His lips curled into a smirk 

ww you one last time before I left the park,” he said, kas voice working her with a list of diga. Tove the pride our Completely different. Seems like Andrew’s turned you bro the perfect har 

I blinked, my gaze shifting between them. 

Now that Sharik mentioned it, there was a resemblance, 

His sharp features, the intensity in his eyes–it was like lulling a a darker, more dangerom version of Leo 

Sharik had the same mother as Narik and Daria, I suddenly remembered 

Their mother had died shortly after Daria was born. 

But Leo wasn’t in the mood for reminiscence. His voice was dipped, all business. “Did you do it? The attack? 

Sharik chuckled softly, pushing off the car and crossing his arms. 

“You’re looking in the wrong place, little brother. If you want answers, stop wiffing around me and start looking at your dear did father.” 

Leo stiffened, his eyes narrowing, “Andrew wouldn’t 

“Wouldn’t what?” Sharik interrupted, his smile cold. Be so cruel as to take a shot at his own son? I didn’t say he did it. I’m saying you should investigate who’s around him. In case you’ve been living under a rock, Andrew’s got an illegitimate kid out there. And some time aga my specialized bullets went missing.” 

A shadow passed over Leo’s face, and I could see the wheels turning in his mind, connecting pieces of a puzzle he hadn’t realized existed. 

Sharik glanced at me briefly before turning back to Leo. 

“You should trust me. If I hated you for taking my place, you wouldn’t have lived past the age of nine. And if I had any interest in hurting her, I wouldn’t have brought your Luna back to you in one piece.” 

I shivered slightly as Shariks gaze lingered on me. 

His tone was matter–of–fact, but there was something unsettling about him, something that made me want to get as far away as possible. 

Without waiting for a response, Sharik turned and slid into the driver’s seat of the car. 

The warriors around us hesitated, awaiting Leo’s order. 

For a long moment, Leo was silent. 

Then, finally, he gave a nod. The warriors stepped aside, and Sharik’s car pulled away, disappearing into the distance. 

The ride back to Silvermoon was quiet, the air thick with unspoken tension. 

Leo gripped the steering wheel tightly, his eyes fixed on the road but his mind clearly elsewhere. 

“Do you believe him?” I asked gently after a while. 

Leo exhaled slowly, his shoulders sagging as if a great weight pressed down on him.

“I don’t know,” he admitted, his voice filled with frustration. “But it lines up with some other information I’ve been hearing. There’s a chance Shark’s telling the truth.” 

I placed a hand on his arm, offering what little comfort I could. 

He turned to look at me, his expression softening for a brief moment. 

“You always know how to make this easier,” he murmured, his gaze filled with a deep affection. “Having you by my side…. It’s the only thing keeping me from breaking under all this.” 

His vulnerability tugged at my heart, and though part of me wanted to pull away, I didn’t. I squeezed his hand gently, letting him hold on to that comfort, however temporary it might be. 

By the time we arrived at Silvermoon, the sky was already darkening. 

Ave stepped out of the car, the front door of the pack house flew open, and Daria came rushing toward us. 

Her eyes were red and swollen from crying. 

“Daria!” 1 exclaimed, hurrying toward her. “What’s wrong?” 

She stopped in front of us, her breath coming in shaky sobs. 

“It’s Dad… He–he brought home some woman. And a man. They’re sitting in the living room right now. He says she’s going to be my new mother.” 

Her voice broke with anguish. 

“I can’t believe it! I had a huge fight with him and stormed out. I don’t know what to do.” 

I glanced at Leo, who looked as shocked as I felt. Andrew had brought someone new into the family? 

And so soon after everything we’d just uncovered? 

This situation was getting more complicated by the minute. 

I froze, my gaze darting to Leo. His face was stony, the tension in his jaw unmistakable. 

He looked as if he was barely holding back a storm.
