Chapter 0085
She whispered the last part, more to herself than me. I don’t think I was meant to hear that, but I did, and it has just raised more questions. What does she mean by 'this time'?
She shakes herself seemingly to get herself together. “You’re already great at hand-to-hand combat. I can fight extremely well in wolf form, so that’s no worry. What’s left is to train with our powers. I need to teach you how to use and control them.”
I don’t say anything, but I agree. If I could cause an earthquake while lost in my anger and bitterness, what else could I do when I lost control?
“Sadie?” Raven’s voice pulls me from my thoughts. “What happened? Why did you lose control?”
I take a deep breath, trying to calm myself down and push down my rage. The last thing I needed was to be consumed again. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“One of the guards at the gates informed me that Piper was here” I finally say after a while. Even her name tasted bitter in my mouth.
“Piper? Alec’s sister?” she asks, surprise replacing the fear that was there a few minutes ago.
“The one and the same” I reply, feeling exhausted all of a sudden. “Hearing she was here just brought a lot of painful memories. The way she betrayed and turned her back on me, combined with all the shit Alec and the rest put me through, just consumed me and I was lost in all the pain, bitterness and hatred I felt for them.”
Sighing, I stand up again. I was now restless despite feeling exhausted just moments before. I wanted, no, needed a release, but first I had to deal with Alec and his pack. I didn’t want any more of them just showing up here.
“Are you ready to face her?” give it to King to hit the nail straight to the head.
“I’m not sure, but it doesn’t matter. Alec showing up here made sure that my time in hiding was over.” I mumble staring outside the window.
I suck in a deep breath and then turn to face Raven and King. "Come on, let's go and welcome our guest. Hopefully, she’s not here to stay. I’d hate to accidentally hurt her.”
That idea didn’t sound too bad. I’d probably enjoy it just like I enjoyed beating the shit out of her brother.
I walk past my friends and open the door before leaving. I head straight to the living room, ignoring the broken vases, pictures and art frames. They must have fallen due to the ground shaking.
It doesn’t take long to find her. Her smell leads me straight to her. She was standing with Alec and was hugging him. Micah and Jason were nowhere to be seen.
“I found my mate” she tells her brother in excitement when they break apart. “He’s just getting out luggage so you’ll meet him in a few.”
I stomp inside the room before stopping a few paces from the duo.
“What is she doing in my pack?” I all but yell, feeling the familiar burning of my anger.
Piper turns sharply at my voice, and stumbles in shock at seeing me. She hadn’t changed much in three years. The only different thing was that her hair was longer, now reaching midback.
“S-Sadie? You’re not dead?” she asks through deep breathes, her hands pressing down on her chest, looking like she’s seen a ghost.
I sneer at her. “Sorry to disappoint, but your brother never got the job done. Now I asked a question, what are you doing in my pack? As if it isn’t bad enough that Alec and his merry band of tortures is here and have refused to leave, now I have to deal with you too?”
“Sadie” Alec growls, shooting daggers at me.
He comes to stand in front of her, in a move to protect her. He probably remembers how I reacted when I first saw him, and he's afraid I’ll hurt his baby sister.
“Shut up” I growl back. “I want you and your pack to leave. Take your sister with you. I don’t want any of you near me or my pack.”
He opens his mouth about to say something when the door opens.
“What did you carry in this thing, Babe? It weighs a fucking ton,” a gruff voice says, walking in.
Both Alec and I turn at the same time. Everything disappears when my eyes land on the man.
“You!”
