Alpha Alec's Redemption

Chapter 0174



Chapter 0174

"It's all nice and good that Raven has figured out who this guy is, but have you all thought about what this could mean?" Piper leans back against her chair and asks.

"What do you mean?" Alec's face is etched in confusion.

"If the person is really Kaden, then it means we will be up against a demi-god. The way I see it, we have two options. If we decide to break the spell, then it means we will be unleashing an evil and probably deranged demi-god back into the world. If we decide not to, then it means this pack slowly and painfully dies. Either way, we are royally fucked."

Silence descends in the room as we all stare at her, knowing very well that Piper is right. We have limited options for dealing with this.

"I believe there is a way," Micah says after a while. "The prophecy did say that Alec's mate, who is Sadie, would be the one to break the curse. There wouldn't be a prophecy if there wasn't a way around this clusterfuck. We just have to find it."

"Micah is right," Raven chimes in. "If the oracle prophesied about it, then there is a way to break the spell without releasing Kaden."

"We have to find a loophole," Alec adds.

"Easier said than done," I mumble, speaking for the first time since Raven dropped the bombshell.

My eyes are on my folded hands even as I feel everyone's gaze on me. I felt overwhelmed by everything that was happening and what I was feeling. I just didn't understand why I felt this way about someone I didn't know... and now on top of that, I had to figure out a way to break this damn spell without releasing Kaden from his prison. I had both the weight of this pack and the world on my shoulders.

Fuck it. As much as Nyx told me to pull myself together, this isn't the kind of shit I signed up for. I mean, who the hell would want this kind of burden? "Okay, if there is nothing else, I think we are done for today," Alec announces.

I don't wait for the rest; I simply ignore them, stand up, and leave. I had so much on my mind. So much to think about. I didn't even know where to start.

"Sadie!" I hear Raven call me, and I am tempted to ignore her, but I know that's not the kind of person I am. She hasn't done anything to deserve that kind of treatment from me.

I stop and turn and watch as she runs to catch up with me. I tap my foot restlessly as I wait for her to get to where I am.

"What was that?" She doesn't beat around the bush and asks the moment she gets near. Her eyes are narrowed into slits, shifting between mine. "What was what?" I ask a bit impatiently.

"Back there, when I mentioned Kaden, you looked as if you'd seen a ghost." Her eyes were searching mine as if she hoped to find the answer to why my reaction was out of character.

"I don't know what you are talking about," I mumble, avoiding her eyes.

Like I said, I am not sure about it myself, and neither do I understand it, so how can I even begin to explain myself to her?

I didn't even know that I looked like I'd seen a ghost when she mentioned his name. All I know is what I felt, and what I felt is a kind of heaviness I've never felt before. The emotions that surged through me felt weird and foreign.

"Seriously, Sadie, are you going to be that way?"

Sighing I fully turn towards her. "I honestly don't know Raven. I don't know what you want me to tell you All I can say is that I felt out of sorts when you mentioned him. I can't explain it, but it's like I knew him, which is weird given I don't know him." Content belongs to

There it is, what I was talking about. I didn't know what the hell was happening to me, so even my explanation came off as a mess of jumbled and confused words.

Her stare is piercing as she leans further into my space. It's as if she's trying to see the truth of my words in my eyes.

"I don't get it," is all she says when she pulls away.

"Join the freaking club because I don't get it either."

My injured hand was starting to itch; combine that with the migraine that I was currently feeling, and all I wanted to do was sleep and forget about my problems for a little while. I don't know about you, but everything seems better after a good sleep.

"So, you are telling that you have a feeling that you know a demi-god?" she asks skeptically.

I look around before pulling her to a more private space. Once we are there, I let go of her hand and start pacing as my nervousness skyrockets. "Yes, that's exactly what I am telling you," I finally answer.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"You do realize how crazy you sound right now. I mean, this guy is hundreds of years old."

I take a deep breath, then release it as I try to calm myself down. "I know. I know. I just can't explain it. When you mentioned him, he felt familiar, and along with that familiarity came these intense feelings that felt suffocating."

She opens her mouth to speak and then closes it again. She tries again, but the same thing happens. It's almost like she couldn't really find the words to convey her thoughts.

"What kind of feelings?" she finally manages to get the words past her lips.

I tell her everything I felt without really holding back. When I am done, we both stake at each other, neither of us saying a word. I know without being told that I sound crazy, and maybe I am, because that's the only reason I would think I know a person when I have never met them. Content belongs to noveldrama.org

"Do you think..." she pauses, her teeth biting her lips nervously. "What is it?"

"I just thought of Nyx. Remember you told me you think Nyx is way older than we think? That she knows things that are way beyond her age. You also said that, because of this, you think that Nyx could have been someone else's wolf. Probably that person died long ago, and her wolf spirit was transferred to you for some reason."

The more her words spill from her mouth, the more nervous I got. I didn't know what she was hinting at, but I feel like I have an idea.

"Yeah," I whisper, and then her next words stop my whole world for a second.

"So, what if you feel a familiarity with Kaden, not because you've ever met the man before but because Nyx has?"
