Chapter 0230
“No idea.” Al ec put his hand on my lower back as we walked up the stairs. “I’ll mind-link
him.”
“Okay.”
Thankfully, it only took him a few minutes to respond back to me. “Still on the phone with
Emmy. She does have Beckham working on it but it will be awhile I guess.”
“That’s fine.” I yawned as we got to our room.
“Tired?”
“Yes…no.” I shrugged. Alec opened the door for us and locked it behind him.
“Worried about tomorrow?” Alec walked over and poured us a glass of whiskey as I sat
down on the
couch.
“My dad possibly dying and my brother getting the role he was born for.” What’s to worry
about?

as he sat down beside me. Handing me my drink, I took a sip and leaned against his arm
that he draped over.
“I’ll miss him.”
“I know but isn’t his happiness worth what he has prepared your entire life for?” I looked
over at Alec. He
shot down the rest of his whiskey and looked at me.
“It is but the only family I will have left is Colt. As difficult as your parents are… they are
still alive. There is
something different about when you lose both of them.”
“You still have Emmy and Jacob. They are like your siblings and as much as you bicker with
Jasper, he
seems to be like your brother.”
“He can be annoying as such.” I snorted. Alec leaned forward and set his glass down.
“Come on. Let’s go to bed.” Alec stood up and held out his hand for me. Accepting it, I
downed my drive
as we walked over to the bed. Taking my shorts, s hit and bra off. I took his shirt he took
off and put it on
to wear to bed. Sl*pping under the covers, Alec pulled me against him. “Sleep. You are
safe and loved
here.” Darkness took over before he was even finished talking.
“Are you about ready?” Alec popped his head into the closet. I had showered, curled my
hair, put makeup on and was standing in front of all my clothes in a pair of matching bra
and underwear set. Alec had put on a nice pair of jeans that hugged his as s nicely with a
tighter athletic t-shirt. It was a set up from a basic
“I can’t decide what to wear.” My anxiety was a mile high. My hands shook, my legs
refused to stand still and I had to fight off the sweats that kept threatening to mess up my
makeup.
“Put on a sundress or one of those shirt things that have shorts attached to them.” Alec
walked in and looked at my closet too. “Here. I like this one on you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You mean a romper?” Alec pulled down a deep purple flowy romper. The shoulders were
capped and the waist was cinched so the bottoms stopped mid-thigh. It had a short V in
the front but it honestly made my legs look amazing. After putting it on, I realized I had
lost come muscle mass. “I really got to start working out again.”
“How is your shoulder feeling?” Alec asked as I took the romper off the hanger and started
putting it on. The bruises were almost faded but hints of yellow and green were visible.
“Feeling pretty normal.” Looking at myself in the mirror, I felt like I was looking at a
stranger. Six months ago, if you would have told me I was getting ready to go have dinner
with my dad for possibly the last time as he chose to die, I would have told you, you were
lying. My hair is longer, my toned muscles were gone and my skin was ghostly white.
“You look beautiful.” Alec wrapped his hands around me.
“I look like I need to work out in the sun for six months to look normal.” Rolling my eyes, I
grabbed my purse and walked out of the closet. I knew I walked away from him showing
me some affection but he wasn’t mad. He has been worried about me all morning, even
though he has been trying to hide it.
