Alpha alec's redemption (Sadie) novel Chapter 106

“Well, that’s your opinion. I believe in the mate bond. And I believe she’ll submit to it.”

“Sure, the same mate bond that is clear as day she’s fighting and, from the looks of it, winning,” Micah growls in annoyance.

Their argument was starting to get on my nerves. I needed to think. I needed to come up with ways to deal with this whole shit storm. I needed solutions, not theories.

“Would the two of you just shut up?” I growl, massaging my temples. “You are giving me a headache.”

They both turn to look at me, but otherwise shut their mouths. I lean back against the chair and just close my eyes.

Everything I did to Sadie three years ago plays on my mind like a broken record. Every punch, every insult, every slap, every whip, every knife cut. EVERYTHING.

Her pleas for mercy ring in my ears. I try to block them, but it doesn’t work. Her screams and cries invade my headspace. I can’t shake them off no matter how hard I try.

I'm jolted and my eyes open when the car comes to a stop. Turning to the window, I realize that we were at the airport. I don’t wait for the others; I get out because I feel suffocated.

“Do you need help with her?” I ask Sadie, coming to stop near her.

I wanted so badly to hold my daughter that my hands were practically itching.

With a cold stare and a colder voice, she says a simple No. Nodding my head, I then guide her. All through the short journey, Aspen couldn’t stop talking about how happy she was that she was going onto a plane.

Her smile, innocence and laughter warm my heart, but also brings a pang of longing. I want her to smile at me like that. I want her to hold me the way she’s holding on to Sadie. I want her sweet warmth to erase the coldness inside me. To destroy the monster that I was to her mother.

After being cleared and all that shit, we are led to where my jet is. We get in and the moment we are settled, my pilot takes off.

“What are you doing?” Sadie hisses, when I take the seat next to her.
