Chapter 211: Love So Sweet

The moment Alec's eyes locked onto the girl's form, he instantly felt like all the oxygen had been stolen right from his lungs.

Whenever he heard of Chers speak about how it felt whenever they met The One, it felt like a distant dream, or some sort of fabled myth that he would never be able to touch.

Love at first sight? That was a myth, even amongst the Systems. However, this world indeed had their version of one's fated partner.

Supposedly, it was like a part of your soul calling out for your soulmate – or so it was theorised – and it was a sentiment that many Chers liked to believe in.

Many books spoke about how Chers were mainly romantic, but Alec called bullshit. He was in no way romantic. At least, that's what he thought.

If you'd ever seen a Cher meet The One in front of your very eyes, you'd never be able to forget it for the rest of your life. It was an indescribable sort of yearning that had been born from the depths of their souls.
