Chapter 58
Piper.
I’m still sitting on the floor minutes after Sadie is gone. I just can’t seem to move or do anything for that matter.
My face hurts, my chest hurts, but most importantly, my heart hurts. My heart was completely and utterly broken. Shattered to a billion tiny pieces.
When I came to this pack yesterday, I didn’t expect that things would turn out so horribly. I just came to check on
my brother, stay a few days to make sure he was okay and then leave with my mate.
I never in a million years expected to find Sadie here. I never thought I’d find her alive and well. I mean, I buried
her, I mourned for her and yet here she was, very much alive.
It had been so freaking confusing seeing her standing in the hallways staring daggers at both me and Alec. Before I
could even come to terms with that revelation, Calvin had walked in and everything had gone to s**t.
I’d stood helplessly as I watched Sadie beat my mate. Seeing her that fierce and powerful is something that I still can’t grasp.
I don’t want to come off as mean, but Sadie had always been weak. Since we were little girls, I’ve had to defend her
countless times. She was timid, shy and never had confidence in herself. The Sadie that was literally killing my
mate, was different.
She was everything the Sadie I knew wasn’t. If it wasn’t for the fact that she didn’t have a twin, I would have believed that the powerful woman I witnessed was her long-lost sister,
I couldn’t sleep at night, especially after Alec refused to answer my questions. When I woke today, I was going to plead for Sadie to let my mate go. For the sake of our past friendship, I was going to beg her to spare him.
That didn’t happen though. I started feeling Calvin’s pain. Just like yesterday, when Sadie beat him up, he tried to block me so that I couldn’t feel his pain, but there was no use. Some of it still seeped through our bond and I knew
that something must be happening to him.
I rushed to the dungeon to find Alec and Sadie who was covered in my mate’s blood. My mate was in pain and it
was because of her. I didn’t think, I just reacted and my action almost cost me my life at her hands.
Which brings us to now.
“Piper,” my brother calls, and I stare up at him with tears.
I was fighting not to cry. I was fighting not to break down. It was just too much. My mate betrayed my brother. My best friend is alive, hates me and she nearly killed me. It was all just too much.
Alec walks over to me and gently helps me up. My eyes move past him to Calvin, who was slumped against his chains, unconscious.
Chapter 58
Walking around my brother, I go to my mate. I couldn’t reach him or his wolf, but I know that it’s because they’re trying to recover. I run my hand through his hair, feeling his soft locks.
“We need to get him out of these,” I whisper the words, but I’m not worried because I know Alec will hear me regardless.
“We can’t,” he says gruffly
Iturn sharply at his words and my eyes narrow. “Why can’t we? He shouldn’t be here.”
Alec’s eyes move from me to Calvin and his jaw clenches.
“You know very d**n well he should.” He grits out “Sadie was right, we can’t play favoritism here. We punished Sadie when she wasn’t even to blame. Calvin is the real culprit here, and he will receive his dues.”
I clench my fist. I wanted so much to argue with him, but he was right. I think about what Sadie told me and instead of fighting my brother, I kiss Calvin’s forehead before stepping back.
I hated this. I hated seeing him like this, but what could I do?
“You’re a f**g hypocrite,” Ash, my wolf sneers at me.
She’s never forgiven me for abandoning Sadie when she was arrested and thrown into the dungeons.
“Not, now Ash,” I tell her tiredly.
“Why?” she pushes. “Weren’t you the one that felt righteous three years ago when you threw our best friend under the bus? Weren’t you the one that gave Alec more reasons to believe that Sadie was the culprit by telling him the many times Sadie had said she wanted him as a mate? Calvin’s actions might have dug her hole, but you buried
her in it.”
My chest aches at her viciousness. Her words tear at my already fragile heart.
“Calvin is our mate? Shouldn’t you be on his side?” I whisper, trying to push the pain away.
“Yes and Sadie was our best friend. That didn’t stop you from handing her to the wolves. Calvin is our mate, but it doesn’t take away the fact that he ruined Alec and Sadie’s lives. It doesn’t take away from the fact that she suffered in those dungeons. He’s been here one day. What about Sadie? She was there for three **g months, yet she was innocent. You were proud in your righteous anger because you thought she betrayed Alec, so where is the same anger towards Calvin?”
I didn’t want to listen to the truth of her words, I didn’t want to hear all she was saying. I try blocking her, but she
doesn’t let me.
“Sadie was right. When it was her, you turned your back on her. You fanned the flames and did nothing to defend her, yet Calvin is the one in the wrong, but you’re still defending him. I love his wolf, but not so much the human She takes a deep breath before continuing. “You’re a f**g hypocrite Piper. You were never a real friend to Sadie and I hate you for that. I hate you for how you turned your back on her.”

With that, she blocks me and I almost collapse at her words. They are filled with so much pain, so much bitterness
and hatred. I always knew she resented me, but I never thought that she hated me.
