My Two Alphas novel Chapter 61

swnovels.com 　　Melana POV

　　We watched Jacob and Ace from the shadows making sure we remained far enough away where they couldn’t pick up our scent. We needed to find a way to get across the borders without being noticed as we sat amongst the trees, high up in the branches out of sight. Ace and Jacob had been patrolling the river all night. This damn river caused so many problems for us, yet not as many as that bloody demon my sister was mates with.

　　Watching Ace though, it killed me and gave me doubts about what we were doing. If only I had come to him when Josie got in trouble we could have avoided this mess, if only Ace was my mate instead of Satish, Alpha Jamie would have nothing to use over me, Josie would still be at school tucked safely away and never would have got involved in this mess.

　　Looking at Josie where she was perched next to me on the branch she seemed stuck in her own head. So much pain behind her eyes and I know she was struggling the most. Lucy was her best friend for years and I was the one person that caused a rift between them or so I thought. I was angry when I found out she kept the knowledge of her own mate from me. If I had known he was a teacher and demon I would have kept a closer eye on her, maybe even pulled her from that damn school.

　　Leaning back on the tree trunk I watched her, something had changed within her, gone was the sweet girl she used to be. Now she was bitter and angry and broken.

　　“So Mr Tanner huh?” I ask her, trying to get a reaction out of her.

　　“Hmm” is all she answers, her eyes darkening slightly, I could see the conflict in her eyes, yet she hardly spoke of him when I had asked, maybe it was what he did to Lucy? I wasn’t sure but she kept him a secret until he got locked up, only then we she said she had something on Lucy and offered to help did I find out about him.
