Chapter 0231 “I’d still f uck you.” Alec gavea look before opening the door. “You didn’t even try last night.” I reminded him as I walked out. Alec shut the door behindand 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?” “Probably sleeping in since they had a free morning for a change.” 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 keepstill. 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 sawand 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 tactually this last week. She didn’t have to tellwhat 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 letgo 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.” “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 cdown and gavea hug. “Dad!” Not quite as aggressive but I wrapped my arms around him. Knowing this might be my last day with him hadfeeling things I wish I never had to. “You look good, kiddo. How are you feeling?” Dad letgo 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.
