Chapter 383-My Past Kept Showing Up
Helanie:
"Helanie! Let’s go, what are you waiting for?" I couldn’t believe I had stayed behind while the others had moved ahead.
Even the guy had left. It was Lamar’s voice that caught my attention. I ignored him and rushed back inside the café to confirm I hadn’t just had a nightmare.
"Hey, how are you?" Penn was standing at the counter talking with this guy. Yep! It was him. There was no doubt about it. The way his eyes had been red that night and the anxious cries he let out when he couldn’t get it done the first time.
The details of that night were startling, but right now, he was standing with Penn, talking about stuff, with the blue jacket tucked under his arm.
"Your mom has been so worried about you, Kaiden," Penn said his name, giving identity to yet another one of those alphas.
"Helanie, what’s going on?" Lamar came from behind me, but my eyes stayed glued to Kaiden.
"Mom is always worried. Things are just off now. The demise of Rayden—" he sighed, making my head hurt.
"Huh! You shouldn’t be saying his name," Penn hushed him, causing my nerves to hit another level of anxiety.
"Is it?" Lamar must have noticed. He gently held my hand and squeezed it while I nodded.
"Penn—I forgot to tell you, my boy is here," Benita walked out from the backroom, pointing at Kaiden.
