Chapter 0153
"What are you doing here? Alec," I ask Alec, still eating my ice cream.
"I could ask you the same thing, Sadie," he answers, his eyes focused on me. "I saw Micah's car and wondered what he would be doing here. Only it wasn't Micah, it was you."Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
I used to come here as a safe haven. I didn't have anywhere in the pack except the meadows, but when I wanted to get away from the pack, I would come here.
Like I said, most of the time I came here because of Alec. Any time he would ignore me or brush me off as if I were nothing. Any time he would treat me like I was invisible. Like I didn't matter, I would come here.
I can't even begin to count the number of times he would break my heart. So you can imagine just how many times I came here to escape my heartbreak and the pain I was feeling.
Before he found Lola, I would come here whenever he would bring his new toy to the pack house... or whenever I witnessed his current flavor leaving his bedroom or his office looking thoroughly ravished. I hated it, and I hated that it hurt me.
I would come running here. A place I knew was untouched by Alec or the supernatural world. Like I said, we don't usually interact with humans. That simply means ny-five percent of the supernatural species prefer businesses owned by supernaturals.
I found peace here because it wasn't marred by our species. Here, being surrounded by humans meant that I could forget all about mate bonds and just be normal.
When he found Lola, I came here to escape their love. She was always around, and she had Alec wrapped around her little finger. I am not ashamed to admit that I hated seeing him so in love with her. I hated seeing them flaunting their love and relationship in my face. My visits here became regular after Lola entered the picture. I came here to escape the pain of seeing the man I love falling in love with someone else.
It honestly killed me. It felt like a thousand knives were being plunged into my heart. It left me shattered, reeling from the pain of losing a man I fell in love with.
Do you honestly know how it feels?
To see the once cold, unfeeling Alpha, so soft and mushy in her hands? This is the same man who treated me like I was the devil. This is the Same man that barely showed emotions. The same man that I thought wasn't capable of showing emotions because of how he treated me and how he was raised. Content

It all but destroyed me. Each day, seeing them so loveydovey killed me slowly. My heart was constantly bleeding, and I felt like I was drowning in my pain and heartache.
I couldn't tell Piper what was going on because this was her brother we were talking about. There was also the fact that she never took my feelings for Alec seriously. I didn't have anyone I could talk to about how hard it was for me except for Mrs. Walter. That's why I came here all the time. To talk to someone who understood and to escape my pain.
"Is this the young man you always talked about? Mrs. Walter asks, her eyes moving between Alec and me! give her a sharp look, trying to let her know not to give anything away, but she fails to understand my look. "You are goodlooking. Just like my husband was. It's a shame that you are as foolish as he was too."
Alec's brows pull down, his eyes shifting between the two of us as confusion marred his features. “What are you talking about?"
Mrs. Walter huffs, glaring at him. "If I had my cane, I would have bashed your head. Maybe that would bring some sense into that stubborn, thick head of yours."
I pray to the moon goddess that she doesn't disclose just how pathetic I was three years ago. The last thing I want or need is Alec finding out that I used to cry for him.
"I have no idea what you are talking about," Alec muttered, his eyes narrowing at Mrs. Walter.
“Of course you don't. You are clueless. Most men are!”” she fumed. “You hurt my Sadie over and over again when she did nothing but love, your foolish ass."
My eyes widen at her last sentence. I swear this is the first time I've heard her cursing. My surprise is short-lived after what she said finally registers. I finish the last bite of my ice cream, just as Alec's questioning eyes turn to me.
"Do you know how many times she cried because of the pain you caused her?”
