Mated To Twins [OLD VERSION]

34| Chapter Thirty Four

ALEXI

Breakfast was a really awkward event. It felt like they all knew we spend the night having sex. Erik was wearing this knowing smirk on his lips. His blue eyes were filled with amusement and something else I couldn't place. Roxanne seemed to be permanently flushed just like me. I completely avoided eye contact with them and only spoke when they asked me a question. When breakfast was finished, we made our way into the living room. Tension suddenly filled the air. I could feel my stomach turning when Erik's expression changed. He looked serious. I took a seat between the twins, gripping their hands tightly. For a few minutes it was silent. Then Erik leaned forward.

“Roxy said that there was a way to help Lexi remember her past life,” his eyes caught mine, “if we do this we could maybe find out who wants to kill you. We would also know what witch set the spell on you. But we'll only do this if you agree to it.”

“Will it hurt?”

“No,” Roxanne spoke up. “It will be painless. I'll put you in a deep sleep then I will explore your memories.”

It sounded simple. I wanted to figure out who wanted to kill me. Maybe I would be able to uncover some of my past memories. I wanted to know what my life was like before this one. Fury squeezed my hand. I glanced up at him. It would end their worries. It would end mine.

“Okay,” I whispered.

My fingers were fidgeting nervously with the end of my shirt. I was sitting in the middle of the bed in one of the spare bedrooms. The curtains were pulled shut tightly while white candles were lit and placed around the room. Roxanne was talking softly to the twins and Erik by the door. My stomach twisted. I sucked in a deep breath as I pressed a shaky hand against my stomach. I think I'm going to be sick.

“Are you ready?” Roxanne walked into the room.

The door was closed softly behind her. She walked over to me. Giving me a small smile, she climbed onto the bed.

“Lie down,” she whispered.

I lied down on my back with my hands on my stomach. Tension filled my body. I was fucking scared.

“Just relax. Clear your mind and allow me in.” She placed her hand on my forehead. “Relax Alexi. Clear your mind.”

I was shaking badly. My body was covered in a layer of sweat which made my clothes stick to my skin. It felt like I couldn't get enough air into my lungs. Hands gently gripped my arm and a gentle voice was speaking. I couldn't hear what she was saying. It was too much. A sob fell from my lips. I couldn't stop the tears from spilling over.

“I- it can't b-be,” I cried over and over again.

Someone was rocking me back and forth. The hair was stroked from my face. When the tears had dried, I sat up. My eyes locked with hers. She gave me a gentle smile. I wished I could return it but I knew smiling wasn't possible now. How could she do that to me? Why would she do that?

“Don't tell them,” I whispered. “Don't tell them.”

“We have to tell them Lexi, they have the right to know.”

“N-no,” I shook my head. “They can't. It'll destroy them. Please don't tell them.”

“It'll destroy them if you get killed again,” Roxanne said softly. “We can't hide this from them.”

“I'll t-tell them, but not now.” I swallowed. “Just give me some time.”

What I had seen isn't something to be taken lightly, I knew that. This was a matter on my death and those who were willing to fight for me. But it would kill them if they knew who wanted to kill me. I walked up the stairs on shaky legs. Roxanne said that she would keep them busy until I had time to compose myself. I knew she didn't approve of me keeping it from them. I had seen it all.
