Read Mated to the Alpha Twins [by Jane Doe] Chapter 57 - Tori’s anger whipped around her like a tornado. Bits of

glass scratched and sliced my skin. Just as | reached out and grasped the thrashing emotion, it slipped from my

fingers. An invisible wall slammed down between Tori and I, cutting off my connection to her emotions. | took a

staggering breath and tried to calm my own nerves before opening myself up again. Instead of forcing it, I let

each sensation brush by me, letting each one go.

The whirlwind that was Tori’s anger resumed, swirling around strands of my hair and in between my fingers. | let

the anger wash over me, delving deeper. Underneath the anger was the distinct, sharp sting that reminded me

of hurt. | scolded myself for a minute. Of course, she was hurt, | had left without a word, leaving the phone she

had gottenon the bed. Tori had been my first friend in such a long time, and | repaid her by constantly

refusing to trust her. Hidden even deeper was an emotion | hadn’t anticipated; understanding. While her anger

was like a blistering fire, the understanding she felt was like the ocean-cool, crisp waves dashing the heat of the

flames.

She stopped a few feet in front of me, her chest heaving with emotion. | could see each one play out in her eyes,

gritting my teeth against the wave of exhaustion that settled in my bones. | noticed how Alec and Kade took a

few steps away from the two of us, neither one dared to interrupt what Tori was about to say. Her face was as red

as her flaming hair, her mouth opened and closed but words refused to form.

“You-" She sputtered, her incredulous eyes flashing fromto Alec and Kade. Givingone last emotion

clouded look, she turned her eyes to the twins. “You brought her back.”

“She chose to cback.” Alec murmured, and | couldn't help the grateful look that cacross my face. “We

wouldn't ever force her.”

“So, you chose to cback?” Tori snorted, placing her hands on her hips in her typical fashion. | had seen this

look on Tori’s face when she scolded one of Grace's friends for bullying me. “That's ironic considering you chose

to leave in the first place. Do you have any idea how that madefeel? None of us knew what had happened to

you! | thought we were friends, Aurora. You could have trusted me.”

The anger in Tori’s voice quickly gave way to hurt, which hid that underlying tone of understanding. From those

three emotions, | knew that Tori would forgive me. She would undoubtedly makegrovel and earn her

forgiveness, but she understood why | had left. | could feel the twin’s unease at the anger in Tori’s tone, but

neither stepped in. | appreciated them keeping their distance, knowing | needed to fix this myself. If | was

supposed to have this great destiny, | couldn't let Alec and Kade jump in to fix all of my problems. | made this

mess, and it was t| owned up to it. Tori, Alec and Kade, were the most important people in my life at the

moment. | had hurt each one of them, and would willingly pay the price to fix that.

“I wasn’t thinking clearly. | wasn't thinking about who | would hurt, | just needed to leave.” | sighed, feeling

nothing but guilt as her emotions battered me. Even with the blinding anger she felt, she was still concerned for

me. | knew that if | let myself dig deeper into her emotions, | would feel the tiniest shred of happiness. She was

glad | had chome, that | found my way and decided to stay with Alec and Kade. | had no idea what this

meant for our friendship, but | wasn’t willing to give up quite yet. “Everything-everything was coming down on

me. First Melissa and Frank, then Grace, and then Garrett showed up dropping the biggest bombshell of my life. |

didn’t believe him at first, when he toldwhat | was. | had no idea that you could actually help me, Tori.”

“I know you didn’t, Aurora.” Tori sighed, letting out a sharp breath. “I understand why you left-goddess, | do. Just

because | understand, doesn’t mean it didn’t hurt. Anything could have happened to you out there! You could

have been caught by someone other than Alec and Kade. You might think you don’t have people who care about

you, but you do.”

“I was nearly caught.” | admitted, ignoring the wary glances | received from Alec and Kade. | wanted to trust Tori,

to rebuild the bridge | had nearly destroyed. Trust wasn’t something that cnaturally to me, but it was

something | was willing to work on. | didn’t have any immediate family | could trust, but | knew the family | chose

would be much stronger than that of shared blood. | trusted Alec and Kade without even noticing the shift in my

emotions, and | wanted to do the sfor Tori. “If | hadn't shifted for the first time-well, | wouldn't be here now.

Alec and Kade foundin time, but | learned my lesson. | let people scareoff instead of trusting the three of

you. It’s a mistake | won't make again.”

The happiness radiating from the twins was enough to wipe the sting away that Tori’s anger had left behind. |

could taste Kade’s surprise, as though he was still finding it hard to believe that | had cback. Alec felt the

same, random rushes of awe coursed through him when he looked my way. | could feel Tori’s anger diminishing,

leaving behind a dull throb that spanned my forehead. Even though her anger was beginning to fade, | could still

feel her caution. She wanted to trust me, but | knew it wouldn't ceasy. | wasn’t sure how the twins managed

to trust me, but | had a feeling the mate-bond was coming into play. At the mention of my almost capture, Tori’s

face hardened. A fierce surge of curiosity and worry bubbled through her, mixing with the understanding and

sliver of happiness she felt.

“You were almost captured?” She sputtered, whipping around to face Alec and Kade. “Why wasn’t | told about

this? Do you have any idea who did it or what they wanted?”

“We have one of them in a cell.” Kade raised his hands in surrender, “We were planning on questioning him

tomorrow, but if you want to take the reins-*

“Not helping.” | murmured to Kade, flushing at the sly grin that formed on his face.

“I'm just saying. With that anger, you might get sanswers out of the guy.” Kade chuckled, making Tori scoff

and roll her eyes. Even though Kade managed to take sof the fire out of Tori’s eyes, she refused to back

down. How Tori managed to stand her ground to not one, but two Alpha’s, was beyond me. Yet, she refused to

even flinch as she stared into the eyes of Alec and Kade.

“Perhaps you should tell her, doll.” Alec shrugged, givinga look that made my legs weak. His look was one of

absolute trust, one that toldhe and Kade would followto the ends of the Earth if | asked. “Whatever you

choose to do, we'll stand by it.”

Alec’s words leftenough room to pick and choose what | wanted to tell Tori. | could easily tell her a couple

masked men had tried to kidnap me, but | had learned my lesson by not trusting her. | wanted to mend that

bridge, to regain the friend | had nearly lost. Keeping more secrets from her would only prove | didn’t trust her. If

| was going to do this, | needed to be all in.

“It’s a long story. One I'd rather not tell in public, but if you're interested-I wouldn't mind explaining everything.”

| told her, hoping she could feel the sincerity of my words, and the weight of what | was willing to tell her. Tori

seemed to grasp my understanding as a determined look crossed her face, the thick guard she kept around

herself lowering.

“Alright.” Tori exhaled, and | could visibly see her shoulders relaxing. “Cto my house tomorrow, around

noon. Dad and Mom are visiting my Aunt, so they won't be around to hover. If | don’t see you tomorrow, I'll hunt

you down, Aurora. Not even Alec and Kade will stop me. Also, this is still yours.”

Tori placed something cold in my hands, and | looked down at the cellphone she had givena couple months

ago. The battery was full, and | wondered why she had kept it for me. | could see the reluctance in her eyes as

she walked away, resuming what she had planned for the day. As Kade wrapped his arms around my waist, and

Alec placed a lingering kiss to my forehead, | realized something. Alec, Kade, and Tori were the first people to

care aboutin such a long time, and | knew that if | allowed it, the three of them would becthe family |

never had.
