Chapter 49. 

Nelly’s POV. 

We walked down the hallway, our laughter dying down as we grew further and further from Aisha’s 

room. 

“That was close,” Aisha said, her voice still shaking slightly. “Too close.” 

“Honestly,” I replied, wiping the sweat from my brow. 

ThWe finally reached Aisha’s room and closed the door behind us. 

“Any progress?” Aisha asked, her eyes full of hope. 

“No,” I said, my voice heavy with disappointment: “I’m sorry.” 

“It’s okay,” Aisha said, giving me a reassuring smile. “We’ll figure this out.” 

I sank onto the bed, staring up at the ceiling. I absently twisted a strand of around my finger, trying to make sense of what had just happened.

hair 

“Maybe we should try to get hold of her diary,” I said, my voice quiet. 

“Why didn’t you grab it when you had the chance?” Aisha asked, sitting next to me on the bed. 

“It was locked,” I explained, my frustration evident. “I was about to look for the key, but before I could even touch it, she burst into the room.” 

“I have an idea,” I said, turning to Aisha

“What is it?” she asked, eager to hear my plan. 

“Well, I was thinking,” I began, “you could help me ask Harry. He’s been here with them for a long time, so he must know something about what’s going on.” 

Aisha hesitated, a look of doubt crossing her face. “I don’t know, Nelly. We’re not exactly on the best terms right now.” 

I frowned, confused. “Why not?” 

“We had a bit of a falling out,” she said, her voice tinged. 

“Please Aisha, you will have to put your fight aside for me. I can’t sleep at night any longer. The fear that Emily might be my sister is eating me up,” I muttered, my voice

quivering. “Harry is our only hope.” I added. 

Aisha’s eyes softened, and she said nothing for a moment, as if searching for the right. words. Finally, she let out a long sigh and reached out to place a hand on my shoulder. 

“Okay,” she said, her voice gentle. “We’ll do it your way. We’ll put our differences aside and figure this out. I’m here for you, regardless of what.” 

I felt a weight lift from my shoulders as relief washed over me. “Thank you,” I whispered. 

I stood up and straightened my dress. “Let’s go,” I said, my resolve strengthening with every word. 

“Where?” Aisha asked, a look of uncertainty on her face. 

“To Harry’s place,” I replied, my voice firm. 

“Now?” she asked, chewing her l*p nervously. 

“We don’t have time to waste,” I said, my eyes boring into hers. 

Aisha seemed to consider this for a moment, then stood up and nodded. “Okay. Let’s go.” 

We stood outside Harry’s door, the tension between us almost palpable. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. There was a long pause, then the door swung open. 

“Oh, Nelly,” Harry said, his face lighting up at the sight of me. But then his gaze landed. on Aisha, and his smile tightened. 

“Come in,” he said, stepping aside to let us in. 

As we entered the room, I noticed Alpha Kex sitting on the sofa, his brow furrowed with worry. When he saw me, his eyes narrowed, and his face darkened with anger. 

“What are you doing here?” he demanded, his voice low and menacing. 

“I–I–I,” I stammered, but Aisha cut me off. 

“She’s here to settle the fight I had with Harry,” she said, her voice trembling with 

nerves. 

The room went silent, the tension thick and suffocating. Alpha Kex stood up and slowly approached us, his gaze fixed on me. 

My throat felt dry, and my heart pounded in my chest. Why was Alpha Kex angry with me? The last time we spoke, we were on good terms. Now he was glaring at me with so

much hostility, it was difficult to breathe. 

I felt a wave of relief when he turned away and walked out of the room, but it was short–lived. I let out a breath I didn’t realize I’d been holding. 

“Why is he so angry?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper. 

Harry sighed, his expression pained. “It’s a personal issue. He’ll come around,” he said, but I could tell he was just trying to comfort me. 

“Is it about me?” I asked, my heart sinking. 

“Not exactly,” Harry said, averting his gaze. “It has to do with his late beta, Emily, and his mate. 

“Oh.” I said, curious to know what is it about. 

The mention of Alpha Kex’s late beta hit me like a punch to the gut. 

“Was the late beta from this pack? I mean, does his parents live in this pack?” I asked. 

“I don’t know,” Harry said, his voice sounding uncertain. “I wasn’t born here, so I don’t know much about him.” 

The realization that the one person I thought could give me answers was just as clueless as I was left me feeling cold and empty. How was I supposed to find out about Emily and the late beta if no one seemed to know anything about them? 

Harry looked at me, his eyes searching my face for any sign of what was on my mind. 

“Is something the matter?” he asked, his voice soft and gentle. 

I glanced at Aisha, unsure if I could confide in her. But she shook her head, clearly trying to tell me not to say anything 

“No, nothing’s wrong. I lied, forcing a smile. “I’m just curious to know more about Emily, that’s all.”  Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He chuckled. “There’s nothing special about her, she’s just who she is. She couldn’t possibly like you because she’s always loved Alpha Kex.” 

“Oh, I see,” I said, feigning nonchalance. 

“Yes, apart from that, she’s a nice girl,” Harry said, and Aisha snorted. 

“Nice, my foot” the exclaimed, and I couldn’t help but laugh. Aisha was always so blunt and honest, it was one of the things I loved about her.

“That’s why I love you, Aisha,” I said, grinning at her. “You can never pretend to like someone you don’t.”

Harry just stared at Aisha, his expression stony and unreadable. The silence was thick. and tense, and I knew I had to do something to break it. 

“Well, anyway.” I began, clearing my throat. “I would love for the two of you to talk out your differences.” Aisha shot me a withering look, but I continued. “And Aisha, my friend, may be difficult at times, but she’s one of the nicest people I know.” 

Aisha rolled her eyes, but a tiny smile played on her l*ps. “You act like you know me 

well, madam.” 

“I do, and you know that,” I said, blowing her a k*ss. 

She picked up a pillow and tossed it at me, but I dodged it easily, laughing. I picked up the pillow and threw it back, but to my surprise, Harry caught it. 

“Oh, her lover saved her!” I teased them, winking at Aisha. She stuck her tongue out at me, and we all burst into laughter. 

I left them, feeling like I had defused a bomb. I walked to my room, my mind racing. Why was it so difficult to get to the truth? 

1 paced the room, confused and frustrated. Suddenly, an idea creeped into my mind.
