Alpha alec's redemption (Sadie) novel Chapter 127

It's crazy and a little bit scary knowing that someone played you in this way. That someone was mechanizing things behind your back to make sure an aspect of your life failed.

“But that would mean they know Alec and Sadie. They know them so well that they knew how they would react. They counted on them hating each other with both of them feeling betrayed by the other. You can’t know someone’s reaction to a certain situation unless you really know them.” Another elder chimes in, his words rocking the boat even more.

“Fuck!” Alec curses and I mumble the same under my breath.

He’s right. Whoever this person is must know us, or at least studied us for a very long time to know how we tick. They probably knew that Alec is unforgiving and never thinks things through. They counted on him not digging further into the drugging incident.

On the other hand, they knew I’m a forgiving person, but when pushed too hard and too far, I snap.

My breath catches as I’m struck by the enormity of the situation. “They knew us well, and we played right into their plans.”

“And they would have succeeded had we not found out that Lola was an imposter,” Micah says after a few minutes of silence.

It all makes sense, but there are still some loopholes. Some things weren’t adding up. Like, if they had managed to implant Lola as his mate, why not let it play out? Like Micah said, had Alec marked her, then he would have destroyed our bond for good. Wasn’t that their goal? To destroy our bond. Then why not let things play out instead of going through the whole drugging us bit?

Unless that wasn’t their entire goal. Unless whoever sent Lola and whoever drugged us had different goals in mind.

The more I thought about it, the more confused I got. There was something that we were missing.
