••• Aleena’s POV •••
“Aleena..” Celia called me softly again.
“Celia.. I.. We..” I was so heartbroken I didn't know what to say.
“Don't be sad, Aleena,” Celia comforted me.
“How could I not, Celia?” I asked her. After learning the truth, I felt dejected.
“I know, but the most important thing right now is to be strong and find a way to reach out to our mates,” Celia told me.
Reach out to Kyson and Night? “You know it’s impossible, Celia. You’ve tried to mindlink Night, too, right? Did it work?”
“It didn't, but I wouldn't give up trying. I’m sure we’ll be able to contact them soon,” she kept trying to comfort me, but I could hear the tint of doubt and helplessness in her tone too.
I didn't respond to her and just kept quiet as I sat on the floor. My mind kept replaying everything that I had saw. If everything was the truth, then my whole life was basically a lie, a big fat joke.
“Don't think of it that way, Aleena,” Celia said.
