Alec’s CHAPTER 76

Chapter 76

Sadie.

“Even if we were to try and find this woman, I’m not sure where we would even start,” Martin says, voicing exactly what I was thinking.

This woman, whoever she is, went to great lengths to hide her identity. She didn’t want to be found. She didn’t want to be known… And with the kind of power Calvin said she possessed, it would be easy for her to hide herself.

“But we have to try, right? There is a reason she wanted to destroy Sadie and Alec’s bond before it even started. We need to know what that reason is,” Micah pipes in, his finger tapping his chin thoughtfully.

“Which again, brings me back to what I asked. Where does Lola fit in all this?” I question again, refusing to let the matter.

There is just something that wasn’t adding up. Something that we were all missing. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it, but it was there.

Once again, Alec tenses at the mention of Lola’s name.

“Don’t bring Lola into this,” Alec hisses through gritted teeth.

His jaw is locked, and his hands are fisted on his desk. It’s like he was trying to stop himself from reacting.

For some reason, I wanted to push him. To push his buttons when it came to Lola. The woman he fell in love with. The woman he destroyed me for.

“And why is that, Alec?” I mock, my eyes staring directly into his. “Given everything that happened, she is a person of interest.”

His eyes flash, and I can’t help but wonder. Could he still be in love with her? And if he is, why is he putting on airs about me being his mate? But then again, he does need me to save his pathetic pack. This is the one thing his dear first mate can’t do for him.

I don’t think I’ll ever stop thinking of Lola as his first mate. With the way they were back then, it was obvious to see that he loved her. That he had a soft spot for. The moment Lola came into his life, Alec stopped his whorish ways. He became almost domesticated. Lola had him wrapped around her little finger. I’ve never seen Alec so pouty in a woman’s hands before.

“She is not.” His reply pulls me back to the present.
