Alpha alec's redemption (Sadie) novel Chapter 226

“We haven’t confirmed she’s Nyx’s sister,” I reminded him. “That’s just a theory.”

“Yeah,” Jason said. “But it feels right. I can’t explain it. I can’t stop thinking of her that way.”

He wasn’t wrong. The moment the idea got rooted in my mind, it made sense. There were no coincidences. Everything pointed toward it.

Micah finally spoke, his voice calm but firm. “With her kind of power, it’s possible. Hell, it’d be easy to cloak their presence. They’ve existed for what, three years? And no one knew a damn thing. If someone like that has their back, it’s no wonder they’ve stayed hidden.”

He was right. Except for Sadie and her inner circle, no one had known hybrids even existed. When she first told me, I didn’t believe her—until I saw them myself.

Hybrids shouldn’t exist. Yet here they were, alive and thriving, defying everything we thought we knew.

“So apart from Brian, we’ve got nothing?” I asked.

“Yeah.” Jason exhaled. “No sightings. No traces. Absolutely nothing.”

“Do you think Brian would help us find their hideout?” Micah asked, leaning forward slightly, something sharp glinting in his eyes. “He escaped. He has to know where they’re hiding.”

“It’s a long shot,” I said, leaning back in my chair, “but better than running around like a headless chicken.”

“I’ll arrange another interrogation first thing in the morning,” Jason said, yawning. “Also, don’t forget—we’ve got a meeting with the elders tomorrow. Remind Sadie and Raven, too.”

I nodded, closing my eyes briefly. Silence settled over us.

I was just about to get up when I smelled her—before the knock even came.

“Come in,” I called.

All three of us turned toward the door. The knob twisted, and a second later, Sadie peeked in.

“Is this a bad time?” she asked. “I can come back later.”

There wasn’t anything left to say. I gave Micah and Jason a look. “We are done.”

“We’ll get going,” Micah said with a smile, pulling Jason up and practically dragging him out.

Sadie stepped aside to let them pass, then closed the door behind her.

I watched her cross the carpeted room and drop into one of the chairs. Her eyes avoided mine, flicking around the room. Her fingers fidgeted in her lap. I could hear the soft tap of her foot.

“Sadie?” I said gently, drawing her gaze to me.

The moment our eyes met, the bond between us flared to life. It never failed to catch me off guard.

I was drawn to her like a moth to a flame.
