Alpha Alec's Redemption by Kathy M

Chapter 0108

Pressing my lips into a thin line, I don't say anything. It was obvious I was alive, so there was no need to confirm what he could already see. "How? How is it possible?"

"Elder Martin, it's good to see you," Alec's voice interrupts from behind. "Let's leave, we'll explain everything once we get to the pack."

"I don't think the pack will be receptive to having her around given what she did. They still believe Lola was your mate."

Ah, so Alec's pack doesn't know that Lola was a fraud? That's interesting. I wonder why he hasn't told them, given he knew the truth way before we found out we were mates. "I'll explain it to them," Alec replies dismissively. "There has been a new development."

Elder Martin looks at him questioningly before he nods his head and moves aside. Unlike before, this time I travel with Alec in the same car. An arrangement that I didn't like at all.

I was pissed and irritable. The fact that we were getting closer and closer to the pack that brought me so much misery raised my hackles even higher. A very small part of me wanted to run and never look back. I just didn't know whether it's because I wanted to escape the pain, I tried so hard to bury, or it's because of the danger I was sensing on the horizon.
