EPILOGUE.A YEAR LATER.AUTHORS POV. I know you're all probably wondering, a year time skip is too much, but don't worry I'll catch you up. After the funeral, the council of Alpha's met to decide on Jeremy, Elijah and Elena's punishment. It was decided that they would all be spell bound and banished. Spell bound in the sense that their abilities as shifters would be locked away by a spell and only the witch or warlock that put the spell on them would be able to unlock it. So that's what happened and every shifter in the world, hell every supernatural creature was informed of what they did so they wouldn't be getting any help. Also Killian reported Jeremy's businesses and they were all shut down. Elijah begged for a second chance with Adriana but she refused. Slowly but surely everyone was healing from the loss of that day and it also helped that Will amd Luna were back, bringing much needed joy and light into their lives. Now I know some of you are confused,
—Lena— A Few Days Later. The pack was in mourning, yes we won the war, but that didn't mean that they weren't any casualties. All together we lost about thirty shifters but we all know it would've been worse if we didn't have the cure. We had two days to mourn and today we were going to have a mass burial. Here's how everyone in the house is doing, Kate hasn't left her room in days, and I cam hear her cries and screams through the walls, but she won't let anyone in and I completely understand. Killian is being the strong Alpha that he is but I know he's hurting, but in this moment he needs to be strong for his people. We've barely spoken two words to each other, I mean what could we possibly say that would make sense of what just happened. He did leave Jeremy alive though, Jeremy, Elijah and Elena are currently down in the dungeons waiting for a decision from the council of Alpha's on how to deal with them. Iannis, Eric and Kat have been going round hel
—Killian— I was right, I can finally flip shift again. The first time I did it after we left the wedding, the feeling was euphoric, the split second that it took meant everything. The ferals were way more than I expected but it didn't matter, our numbers were still more than theirs. Lachlan and I had been separated but I knew he was fine, it wasn't easy curing the ferals when all they wanted to do was kill us. It felt good being able to shift again, one second I was my wolf and the next I was back to being human. But I still hadn't found the one person I was looking for, where the hell was he? He was the one controlling them, so he couldn't be far. I was done taking care of the feral on my side and the men were taking them to safety. “Jeremy! Don't be a coward, stop sending your lackeys and come and face me yourself!” I shout out as I continue walking around, searching for him. “Don't worry, I'm not going to use the cure on you, it's going to be the cold
—Lena— “Where exactly do you think you're going to?” Missy asked me as I was about to leave the building. “You heard me right? I'm going to find her son.” I told her. “You can't go out there alone Lena.” She tells me. “Is that actual worry that I hear in your voice Missy? Don't worry about me; I can take care of myself; you stay here and make sure that everyone gets down there.” I tell her. “No, Celia can handle that, I'm coming with you.” She tells me I don't have the time to argue with her; I need to find the woman's son. “Fine, let's go.” I tell her and then we both leave the building. “She said he was just with her so he couldn't have gotten far.” I tell her. “Yeah, that's true, but he's still a kid; they wander off pretty fast once something catches their attention.” Missy tells me. “Why don't we split up, we'll be able to find him faster.” I tell her. “Not going to happen, you might
—Killian— A loud alarm sounds, and it can only mean one thing: they're here. Using my Alpha voice, I address the crowd. “Everyone calm down. We have prepared for this, and we all know what to do; if we panic, it isn't going to help. All the women and children start making your way down to the passageways.” I instruct them and then I turn to look at Lena. “Make sure everyone is safe and that the boundary spell is up before you come and meet us.” I tell her. “I know, you be safe out there, he's going to come straight for you.” She tells me. “Well, he's going to be in for a huge surprise.” I tell her, when we marked each other, I felt something shift in me and I finally feel like my former self, I haven't tried it out but I'm very sure that I cam flip shift again. “I'll see you soon.” She tells me and then she picks up her dress and runs into the house with Kate, Adriana and Kat following behind her. Lachlan comes to stand by my side with Iannis an
—Lena— We walk down the stairs, to the back patio doors that lead into the clearing. Adriana and Kat go out first when the violin starts playing. “Alright, this is it, once you step out, there's no going back.” Kate tells me. “I know that Kate, I'm ready.” I tell her. “Alright then, we just have to wait for your dad. Oh, there he is.” Kate says as my dad walks in and he has tears in his eyes as he looks at me. “Oh, my baby girl, you look so beautiful.” He tells me, and I can't help the tears that also well up in my eyes; my father doesn't get emotional all the time. “Thank you, Dad.” I tell him as he stands by my side and puts my hand through his. Kate nods at the two of us, and then she walks out; we wait a few minutes and then me and my dad walk out, and I can't help that I stop walking the moment we step outside because the crowd gathered here is more than I expected. “It's ok, Lena, don't focus on them; focus on the one perso
