"What are you doing here? Alec," I ask Alec, still eating my ice cream. "I could ask you the thing, Sadie," he answers, his eyes focused on me. "I saw Micah's car and wondered what he would be doing here. Only it wasn't Micah, it was you." I used to ccheeras a haven. I didn't have anywhere in the pack except the meadows, but when I wanted to get away from the pack, I would cheer. Like I said, most of the tI here because of Alec. Any tof he would ignore orbrush me offf as if I were nothing. Any would treat me like I was invisible. Like I didn't matter, I would cheer. I can't even begin to count the number of times he would break my heart. So you can imagine just how many times I tried to escape my heartbreak and the pain I was feeling. Before he found Lola, I would cheer whenever he would bring his new toy to the pack house... or whenever I witnessed his current flavor leaving his bedroom or his office looking thoroughly ravished. I hated it, and I hated that it hurt me. I would be crunning here. A place I knew was untouched by Alec or the supernatural world. Like I said, we don't usually interact with humans. That simply means ninety-five percent of the supernatural species prefer businesses owned by supernaturals. I found peace here because it wasn't marred by our species. Here, being surrounded by humans meant that I could forget all about mate bonds and just be normal. When he found Lola, I chose to escape their love. She was always around, and she had Alec wrapped around her little finger. I am not ashamed to admit that I hated seeing him so in love with her. I hated seeing them flaunting their love and relationship in my face. My visits here became regular after Lola entered the picture. I choose to escape the pain of seeing the man I love falling in love with someone else. It honestly killed me. It felt like a thousand knives were being plunged into my heart. Itleft me shatteredd, reeling from the pain of losing a man I fell in love with. Do you honestly know how it feels? To see the once cold, unfeeling Alpha, so soft and mushy in her hands? This is the man who ttreated me likeI was the devil. This is the man that barely showed emotions. The smanthat I thought wasn't capable of showing emotions because of how he trtreated andow he was raised. It all but destroyed me. Each day, seeing them so loveydovey kkilled slowly My heart was constantly bleeding, and I felt like I was drowning in my pain and heartache. I couldn't tell Piper what was going on because this was her brother we were talking about. There was also the fact that she never took my feelings for Alec seriously. I didn't have anyone I could talk to about how hard it was except for Mrs. Walter. That's why I cheer all the time. To talk to someone who understood and to escape my pain. "Is this the young man you always talked about?" Mrs. Walter asks, her eyes moving between Alec and me. I give her a sharp look, trying to let her know not to give anything away, but she fails to understand my look. "You are good-looking. Just like my husband was. It's ashame thatt you are as foolish as he was, too." Alec's browspulledl down, his eyes shifting between the two of us as confusion marred his features. "What are you talking about?" Mrs. Walter huffs, glaring at him. "If I had my cane, I would have bashed your head. Maybe that would bring sense into that stubborn, thick head of yours."
