Alec’s CHAPTER 67

Chapter 67

I get out of the car the moment the driver parks it in front of the pack house. I stop and just stare at the huge mansion. I don’t why, but I expected things to have changed, but it’s still the same.

I feel Alec’s presence behind me, but I ignore him. I just focus on the house as memories upon memories invade my head.

This had once been my dream. To be Alec’s Luna. To rule by his side. I always imagined our children running around inside, playing, while I baked and tried to avoid crashing into them.

I imagined the pack house filled with their love, laughter and joy. Yes, we would have had our own house, but most of our days would be spent here because this is where the Alpha and Luna offices are.

It had been hard to let go of those dreams. It had been sad to watch them die in that room underground. It had crashed me, realizing that I’d built fairy tales around Alec, not realizing what a monster he was.

Now here I was, I had his child, and we were mates, but our life was nothing like I’d imagined it would be. Instead, I hated him, and I was only here because we both wanted something from each other.

“Are you okay?”

If he asks me that one more time, I swear I’m going to punch him. I wasn’t okay and I doubt I’ll ever be.

“Let’s just get this over and done with,” I reply and start walking.

I knew this place like the back of my hands. Piper and I spent countless hours exploring the inside of the pack house and outside. I didn’t really need him to guide me or anything.

I feel his hear behind. I quicken my steps so that I can put some distance between us. I didn’t like him near me. His presence affects me and not in any good way.

When we get inside, it’s the same. The décor, the furniture, everything is still the same. Maybe had mated Lola, she would have done a touch up and changed a few
