Alexandra’s POV-
After we finished our lunch, Nicholas and I sat on his sofa. He was holding me in his arms. We were waiting for Brittany to arrive. Nicholas hadn’t let go of me since we found that gift from James. Nicholas and I had spoken about things. Even though I never really had the chance to deal with the emotions of the past, I never really spoke about it. But telling those here, and speaking with Nicholas about our pasts, has really helped. It helped me to begin healing from everything. I was still surprised by myself, when I said I wanted Nicholas. It wasn’t a s****l want; it was an emotional want. The first thing I wanted in a moment of crisis was him. I don’t know whether it was the mate bond, or whether it was more because I was starting to like him, more than I even realize
