Alpha alec's redemption (Sadie) novel Chapter 197

“Who are the two girls?” I ask, fearing the answer she’ll give.

“Me and my sister,” she whispers, brokenly.

The air gets stuck in my throat as the words strike my already battered heart in a way I don’t understand. There is something just on the surface, but before I can fully grasp what it is, it disappears.

“Sister?” I choke the words out in one breath.

“Yeah”

“You had a sister, a twin sister at that and you never freaking told me?" Everything is moving in slow motion as my brain slowly registers her response.

How does she have a twin sister? And where the hell is the sister now? How come I didn’t know a single fucking thing about it? What else has she been hiding from me?

My hands tremble as waves of shock flow through my tired body.

“Yes… and I didn’t tell you because you weren’t ready for it just yet,” she answers, her voice cautious and small.

“And now I’m ready for that information?” I snap. “Is that what you are trying to say?”

“Mhmm,” she mumbles in a low pitch.

My anger vanishes and I stay silent. My eyes stare ahead without really seeing anything. She answered my question but there is still something that’s missing.

Those feelings I felt earlier? Yeah, they are still there. They are even more overwhelming now that I understand who the two girls are.

“So, I just got a memory? One of you and your sister?” I mumble, again rubbing my chest, trying to chase the ache that’s there.

It’s all confusing, and I don’t have anyone to help me figure this shit out. The one being who could shed light on things is Nyx, and we all know how she rarely tells me what’s happening.

Maybe it’s time I started doing my own research. If I continue to sit and wait for Nyx to reveal the truth, at this rate, I’ll be waiting forever.

Sighing for the hundredth time, I finish dressing, get up and leave the room for breakfast.

I walk through the corridors distractedly. Going down the stairs, I almost slip and fall because my mind was on Nyx and what she’d just revealed.

I was still trying to wrap my head around the fact that Nyx has a twin sister when I stopped dead in my tracks after entering the dining room.

My mouth hangs open in shock as I stare at Alec, seated at the head of the table with none other than Aspen on his lap.
