THE INVISIBLE HEIR.

“But I have older brothers before me, how can I be an heir of the clan?” I was confused.

“You are still young, with time, you will understand how the clan’s rules go as you get older, Oceana. You have to be strong and don’t let anyone pull you down. No matter the person, you are who you are, and I don’t want anyone to belittle you.’

I understood my mom’s words.

I know she is trying to do her best, but I just don’t know how to explain this.

She was somewhat scaring me, I don’t know why she is saying all these things to me.

One thing is for sure: I don’t need a mate or anyone by my side; after all, the clan secretly makes fun of me for being so pathetic.

My mother came to me and touched my shoulders. “Oceana,’ she called me.

“Yes, Mom,’ I sadly responded.

“Make me proud; don’t disappoint me; I don’t want you to be some useless Alpha out there and in history. Fight and be the strong Alpha you are meant to be, so that when you meet your mate, he will be worthy of you.’

I felt like a heavy burden had just landed on my shoulders.

‘Do I make myself clear?’

“Yes, Mom,” I replied. Sometimes, my mom kind of freaks me out; she has never talked to me like that before.

What did she mean by I will be an heir?

“Now, follow me; it’s time to meet up with the clan elders; they all want to see you crowned as the princess of the realm.” I sighed and followed her to the clan.

They want to see me, for what? To touch their feet or what? I can’t even use my powers, why do they want to see someone like me and crown me as the princess of the realm?

It’s not like I wasn’t a princess of the realm; it’s more like they want me to be crowned for recognition so all the people know I’m the princess of the realm blah, blah and blah.

And also use this opportunity to carry on my duties and come across my mate.

That’s all they want to see me for—wrinkly old council elders, all sitting down with young muscular Alphas discussing a few things among themselves and blocking the path to the mating ceremony.

“Oh, ah… Alpha, go harder,’ whoever it is, was screaming like a pig. How annoying.

As if the elders knew what was going on, they shut the gigantic white designer’s gate to block out the noise.

Good riddance.

I can’t bear to hear such noises, and I hope I don’t become like that disgusting person that screams in the room one day.

The moon goddess be damned, I will faint.

I went over to my mom and sat down on my seat close to her, yawning and feeling bored about the whole scenario.

If I were just on my phone, this would have been much better for me.

I hate this meeting; I wonder what they were discussing.

“Hey, sis,’ Alex said, coming to me and sitting down beside me with a grin on his face.

He needed something from me; I knew it. Whenever he needed my help, that’s how he always behaved.

Alex is a seven-year-old boy who has full black hair and blue eyes. He was a short boy with pink lips and bright features, and he had the same similarities as my father. He is lively and optimistic, but he loves to be rough and is quite messy.

Today he acts cute, the next day he is a stubborn brat.

He is my little brother.

The one thing our family has in common is our blue eyes. According to what I found out, it’s the source of our power, I think.

“What is it, Alex? Don’t bug me.” I knew where this was going.

“I want to use your phone for just five minutes to check the latest game that just came out; Ace wants me to check the version.”

Ace was his best friend and partner in crime.

“You have a phone; why don’t you use yours?”

“Please, Mom wouldn’t let me use the WiFi; she switched it off.” He whined.

“That’s because you use more than what Mom can afford,’ I laughed. “I’m not giving it to you; serve you right.”

“That’s not fair, sis.”

“It is fair,’ I argued.

“If you don’t give it to me, I’m going to tell Mom that you were reading those mangas again.” He nearly yelled, and I soon covered his mouth with my hands and fiercely whispered. “Keep quiet; Mom will hear you. I’m not reading any manga.” I denied.

He pulled my hands off his mouth.

“Then, please let me take it; I wouldn’t stay long.”

“Go ahead,’ I finally gave up, and then something struck me: I realized that I didn’t clearly swipe off the episode of the sex scene BL manga on my phone.

Crap!

I quickly got up from my seat. I saw my brother walking towards me, and excitement filled all my body. Forgetting why I got up in the first place, I went over to hug him.

“Gerard.’ I squealed with excitement.

“Hey, little kitty, how are you?” He laughed and kissed me on the neck as he hugged me.

“I’m fine. Welcome home, big brother. I miss you so much,’ I said cheerfully, feeling his warmth on my chest.

“Hey, stop hugging me so tightly, you will push me down, everyone is watching.”

He was taller than me, though; how could I drag him down?

“I’m good. Where have you been? I haven’t seen you for a long time, Gérard, you didn't even care to call me.'

"But, I often call you, Princess.'

"You could do it, everyday, it's not enough.' I argued.

"I've been so busy, Oceana, that's why I don't call everyday'

"It's your work much more important than me?' I fumed with annoyance.

He chuckled. "No, love, I just got carried away with my busy schedule.'

"Really?' I questioned with my brows raised.

“Yeah. Do you miss me?” he laughed.

“Of course, I miss you so much; I love you.” I kissed him on the cheek the instant he bent down again.
