Dad raised my brother and I by himself ever since his divorce. When I used to ask why my skin color was darker than anyone else in our family, he'd tell me that my mother was a Spanish princess who couldn't handle being married to a commoner.
I wanted to get to know my mother more than anything else in the world, so I tracked her down through divorce records. But the woman refused to even speak to me. Then she told my brother the truth: she's his mom. I'm the product of an affair my dad had with one of his stable workers.
And it gets better. Dad left my birth mom when she was pregnant, so after she gave birth, she abandoned me on his doorstep. Fun, isn't it?
