Fated to My Twin Sister's Alpha (Violet and Asher) novel Chapter 176

Two days later.

I’ve really started to enjoy being at the Nightshade Pack. The atmosphere here is welcoming, and the people have been kind.

Still, there’s an underlying tension everyone feels. War does

that to you–it touches everything and everyone, whether you

want it to or not.

“You’re so much like your grandmother.” People would often

say that to me. The bonds here run deep, like family. It was

noon, and we were all relaxing under the shade near the pack

house.

“Tell me about her.” I was curious to learn more about my

mom’s side of the family, and I loved hearing stories about

them.

“Your grandmother was just as beautiful as you, inside and out.

But her greatest strength–and her biggest flaw–was her heart.”

I couldn’t help but pause. I often thought my heart was my

weakness too, so I was listening closely.

“She wore her emotions on her sleeve. She trusted everyone,

loved with all of her. People sometimes saw that as a weakness,

but it was her sensitivity that made her such a remarkable

Luna.”

The way they–spoke of my grandmother, of my mom, made it

clear how much respect they had for them both. They were

practically legends in this pack.

“Does it bother you, living with something so dangerous?” I

asked them. The pressure of guarding something so precious

seemed like it would be overwhelming, but they all appeared

calm, like they had it under control.

“It’s our responsibility to protect it,” Harry, Grandma Lana’s

mate, explained. “But knowing it could be destroyed? That’s

what bothers us.”

I couldn’t bring myself to feel guilty about wanting to destroy

the flower. We didn’t know the depth of its significance to

them, and we were strangers to this place. If I’d understood how

much it meant, I would have made a different choice. But now,

if asked again, I’d do what was right.

“Do you need anything to eat?” my mom walked over and

asked me. She had been trying to take care of me ever since we

got here. But honestly, I still didn’t feel that close to her.

“No, I’m fine. But if I want something, I’ll ask Olivia,” I said.

Olivia was in a rough spot. I think being separated from Philip

was hitting her hard, but I wanted her to deal with it on her

own. Everyone could already tell she was pregnant, though we

hadn’t told her yet.

“Don’t be too harsh with your mom,” said Aunt Mellie, her best

friend, sounding concerned.

“I’m not being harsh, I just don’t need anything,” I sighed, feeling

exhausted. Everyone was trying to fix the relationship between

me and my mom, but I felt it was something that had to happen

naturally.

“She cried a lot after leaving you behind. I know you think it

was easy for her, but it wasn’t,” Aunt Mellie continued. “You

wanted to destroy the flower for the greater good, but you

didn’t stop to think about how it affected the people here. A
