“I’d still f uck you.” Alec gave me a look before opening the door.
“You didn’t even try last night.” I reminded him as I walked out. Alec shut the door behind
me and locked
it.
“You didn’t seem like you wanted to.” Alec put his hand on my lower back as we walked
down to the garage.
“I could have been persuaded.”
“I’ll remember that.” Alec rolled his eyes at me.
“Are your parents coming along?” I asked as Alec opened the door to an Audi for me.
“No. After everything that has been going on, I didn’t want them to come.” Alec shut the
door and walked around to his side. Getting in, he started it and backed out before driving
off.
“Where was everyone this morning?”

My legs were bouncing as I kept shifting in my seat. To say that I was uncomfortable was
an understatement. Alec had reached over and firmly placed his hands on my thigh to
keep me still. As if reacting on instinct, both my hands wrapped around his forearm and
held on tightly. Alec took all my
squeezing and then some.
“I was hoping to never see these gates again.” I whispered as we pulled us. The guards
saw me and nodded before opening them and letting us pass.
“Kristen, I know this will be hard but remember, this is his choice. He wants this. As much
as you and Colt
are going to hurt, remember that his soul is being set free.”
Alec’s words were like ice water being splashed in my face. It was a dose so of reality that
helped me calm down. Just a little. I was able to take a deep breath. Colt and Penny were
standing on the porch.
steps. Colt had his hand around her as Penny waved big at us. I took one last deep breath
before Alec
opened my door for me. When he got out, I wasn’t even sure.
“Kris! It’s so good to see you!” Penny ran down the steps and hugged me. It felt good to
see her again.
“How are you?” She looked good, no sunken eyes or bruises.
“I’ve had a really good time actually this last week. She didn’t have to tell me what she
meant, I knew it,
“Hey, sis.” Colt walked up and I threw myself in his arms. It felt good to be back in my twin
brother’s embrace. As much as I loved Alec, Colt will always have a comfort to him that I
can’t find anywhere else.
“Hey.” It was all I could get out.
“How are the shoulders?” Colt let me go and looked at them.
“Feel perfectly fine, just a little bruising.” I lifted them to show them I had full range.
“Good.” Colt stepped back and shook Alec’s hand before giving him a half hug. “Thanks
for coming, man.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Kris!” I heard my dad’s voice from the porch. Looking over, dad and An n walked out to
greet us. Dad was a few steps ahead of An n. Thankfully, she stopped at the steps as dad
came down and gave me a hug.
“Dad!” Not quite as aggressive but I wrapped my arms around him. Knowing this might be
my last day with him had me feeling things I wish I never had to.
“You look good, kiddo. How are you feeling?” Dad let me go and like Colt, looked at my
shoulders.
“I’m good. Feeling great.” Even if I didn’t feel good, I wasn’t going to tell him that.
“Good!” Dad nodded before shaking Alec’s hand firmly. “Thank you for bring her.”
Alec wasn’t sure how to respond to that as his mouth opened and closed a few times. “It
was my pleasure, sir.” He finally settled on.
“Penny has a beautiful picnic set up for us in the garden.” Colt said, interrupting the
awkwardness. I half expected An n to make a remark but instead, she just turned and
walked ahead of us. Her nose was kept in the air as she aggressively walked on. Colt and
Penny were ahead of us. I saw Penny put her hand on Colt’s back as if to calm him down.
