The Dark Side Of Fate

Chapter 240

77 Catching Alice (Book 2)

~Devin~

I heard someone pull up in my driveway, and I knew it was Alice.She did not come by until ten in the morning, which was odd, given that I had told her she could resume her job.

I tried to look as miserable as possible with a bottle of beer sitting on the couch. I needed her to let her guard down and relax. I felt it was odd she broke up with Lukman the night I returned. She might be trying to skip town or might be planning something worse. I did not know, but I needed to be careful.

"Come in", I called out, already knowing who was at the door, and Alice walked in. She looked nervous at first, but when she saw me, she gasped.

"alpha!" she said and rushed toward me. Left to me, I would chain her in silver and drag her to Mountain, but I composed myself. 1

I already knew what it was, so I did not bother with her; I just played along.

"I am sorry to hear Alpha; I hope she comes back," She said, and I knew she did not mean those words.

"I doubt she will. I guess it was goodbye this time," I said, and she smiled.

"Jet me fix you something to eat." She said, and I shook my head immediately. She might try to load me up with silver too.

"Just keep me company and tell me all you have been up to since I left for the East," I told her, and she smiled at me.

"Well, I went to visit my folks in Hayland and returned the day before yesterday. Lukaman and I broke up last night. We weren't feeling the relationship, so we decided to end things, and that is all in a nutshell." She said, and I wanted to drill her some more I just needed to be careful how I go about it.

“What are your dreams, Alice?" I asked her, wanting to understand her motivations. She looked at me and frowned.

"I want to know what you aspire for yourself. You have to want something for yourself," I asked her, and she bowed her head.
