Her Cold-Hearted Alpha

KIARA

Alejandro left and I knew he had heard . our conversation … But how much of it ? Did he hear the part where I asked Aunty Indy if he knew …. I expected him to be honest … It was high time I tried to do my part too … My stomach twisted , knowing deep down a time would come when I’d have to tell him about Rayhan … I looked down , sighing deeply .

” El … ” Aunty whispered . ” I don’t know what to say Indy … I can’t believe I had to hear that from him and not you . I’m your brother ; heck , that’s what I’m there for ! You should have told me . ” ” I didn’t want you to get mad at him or make him leave . ” She whispered , breaking into tears . Dad pulled her into his arms , I could see the pain and sadness on his face . He was always there for us …

” After what Jessica’s been through , and you girls as well , why would you settle for this Indy ? The goddess did not create mates to hurt one another . ” He whispered , caressing her hair .

” I know , but the bond is strong , I always hoped he’d come around . I know he will ! ” She said , looking up at Dad . Dad simply shook his head and held her tight , I suddenly felt emotional as I watched him comfort her . He was always watching out for us , always there … Yet we just hid stuff from him .

Dad was a father and a brother who loved us unconditionally . I felt guilty for always complaining about how suffocated I felt … He only cared for us … But only lately did that seem to be clear and after Auntie’s revelation , I was sure stuff like this were his reasons . ” It’s been years since you’ve met … Things should not have been like this , Indy .

No one deserves to stay in a situation like that . Be strong and perhaps the Goddess has other plans but Indy …. This isn’t right . I don’t care what you decide or what Alejandro decides , but I’m taking you home with me . ” Dads words were final .

Get mad ? I don’t really think he has that ” Dad said coldly and I right anymore . ” knew he was pissed . ” Elijah , please . It’s not that bad ! ” ‘ Aunty had broken bones and countless bruises . The night I lost

had passed and I was done with

I knew exactly why I had made these … My heart skipped a beat at the thought of him as I packed a bag of snacks for the ride too Serena had told me we would be going by car for the most part . I had an ominous feeling about that forest , like a dark and unsettling weight , resting in the pit of my stomach every time I thought of

Dad’s decision to take Aunty back with them . She had been getting worked up and I had been worried , so I had mind

, but I did want them to know she was pregnant and didn’t need any extra stress so they had to deal with her patiently . I was glad she was going to go back to the Blood Moon pack . A t least she’ll be safe there . ” Alejandro’s outside . ” Darien said , popping his head into the room with a huge grin on his face . ” You seem happy to have him gone . ” I said

I’m happy that you two are going to work things out . ” He said with such confidence that I raised my brow . ” Aren’t you very confident considering you

a chance . ” ” Yeah … well … let’s see . ” I said . I haven’t done anything yet … but I hoped we could work things out . I met Mom and Dad , Rayhan and his family as someone took my bags to the car . I walked outside to see Alejandro talking to a few men . My gaze roamned his broad back , the way his shirt fitted him , his tattooed arms , his ass … Was it

my lip , my core throbbing at just how hot he was .. Ok , focus . We were not going to go

cigarette . His eyes glinting as he looked at me , almost as if he knew I was checking him out . ” Before we leave , there’s

I didn’t speak . I intended to ask but not right now . We reached the cells , the smell of metal , blood and something else filled my nose . I t was dark

. I tried to calm the storm that was rising within me . This simple yet thoughtful move … This was all I had wanted … His love , his concern and care . Exactly what he was showing me now . Why couldn’t we have just

never got fresh air wrapped around me . The sound of a weak unearthly growl greeted my ears and my heart thudded . ” It’s the Wendigo . Do you think you’d be able to see if in any way you could get anything from it ? ” ” I can try . ” I said . ” Good
