Alpha alec's redemption (Sadie) novel Chapter 276
I stay quiet, just absorbing her words. The way she said them, there was a hint of something I just couldn’t place my finger on. It’s like when you’ve been treated so horribly before and then find someone who treats you with real tenderness, that it’s almost unbelievable.
Yes, that’s it. She sounds as if she still can’t believe just how considerate and caring Knox had been.
“Nyx,” I say, drawing in a breath, “I want to ask you something and I’ll completely understand if you don’t want to answer.”
She shifts, all her attention on me.
“Okay. What is it?”
My heart is pounding as I think of a way to broach the subject. I can feel sweat pool under my armpits.
“You are nervous,” she observes. “Why?”
I don’t respond. I’m still trying to find the right words, a gentle way of asking without sounding too pushy.
“Come on, Sadie, just ask.”
“Alright,” I exhale. “Did you… did you have a mate before Knox?”
There is silence. Pure silence.
For a moment everything feels like it has been frozen in time. Like the world around me has been suspended.
I wait, barely breathing, as the seconds stretch endlessly. I wait for what feels like forever before I finally hear her soft voice.
“Yes, I did,” she replies.
The air I was holding rushes out of my lungs. I wanted confirmation and got it. Now that I have it, I don’t know what or how to feel about it.
“W-what happened to him?” I ask, voice trembling.
She recoils, curling into herself as if she is trying to shield herself.
“I don’t want to talk about it, Sadie,” she whispers. “I’m not ready to talk about him.”
