Chapter 46
Trigger Warning: Violence, Death
POV Willow
As soon as I saw the gun, I knew what he was going to do. As the gunshot rang out, I pushed Devon down. This asshole was the reason that my father was killed, I refused to lose another family member because of him.
Devon and I both landed on the ground and I quickly checked him over as he did the same to me.
"Dammit, Willow! You could have been killed!" Devon snarled but I just ignored him and turned to look up at Sam.
I was afraid that I would see him standing over us with a gun but my eyes were met with quite a different sight. Dean was holding Sam from behind, the gun was on the ground and everything would have been fine except Lee was on the ground as well. I blinked and saw the blood pouring from Lee's stomach.
"NOOO!!!" I screamed as I scrabbled to him.
Lee looked at me with sad eyes and I pressed on the wound before rollin

POV DeanWe were covered with blood. I stared at Willow, even like this, she was beautiful. She looked like a vengeful goddess and I loved it. She crushed that bastard's evil heart and dropped it just as a voice was heard."Mine" Lee said as he struggled to his feet.I looked at him in confusion and then to Willow. Were they somehow mates now? I sighed as my stomach dropped. There would be no way I would be able to win her back now.But Willow's face looked surprised and then sad as she force a smile. Lee made it to our group and to everyone's shock, grabbed Livia in a tight hug. Livia embraced him back as we all stared in wonder. Livia and Lee were second chance mates. What did this mean? Would Lee leave Willow? Would Livia accept him? Willow was their Alpha now.My heart ached for Willow. This was an impossible situation and I knew that she would be the one to suffer. She was forever the martyr and I hated it. She deserved to be

POV WillowI felt great! Devon was happy. Livia was happy. Lee was happy. The prisoners were free. The Moonstone pack was safe. Everyone was safe now.Of course, I was still feeling the pain of loss over my Dad but he had died a good death, fighting for who he loved and what was right. He was taken too soon but I knew that he was satisfied with his life and his death and in the end, what more can any of us ask for?Mom must be devastated but the news about Devon and his mate would help. Hopefully they would hurry and give her the grandchildren she had been longing for. I was sad about Lee as well but I was happy that he found Livia. She would be good to him and he to her. I knew that they would be great together, it

POV DeanI finished showering and dried off, listening for Willow. I rushed to dress and hurried back into the room. I didn't want to leave her alone for too long. Who knows where her mind would turn and she needed to relax and rest.I was surprised to find her on the bed, asleep. I smiled at her sleeping form. She was beautiful even in a deep sleep. I sighed and walked over to the bed. I really wanted to lay down and pull her close and join her in sleep but I knew that she needed to eat and drink before we could rest.I sat on the bed and rubbed her back softly. She moaned and stirred a little but didn't wake up. I leaned close to her."Baby. I'm sorry. I know that you're tired but you need to eat and drink first. Pl

POV WillowI woke up in a comfortable bed with warm arms around me. For a split second, I thought it was Lee but then I smelled the intoxicating scent of Dean and it all came rushing back to me. I laid still, processing everything.Dad was dead. That fact hit me in my heart. He was gone. Never again would he hug me or lecture me or teach me something. Never again would I feel the safety of having him near me.For the last few years things between us had been beyond strained but before that, Dad was my hero. He taught me everything. I just couldn't picture my life without him.To add to the hearbreak, we had just gotten everything sorted. I finally had him back in my life. To have him taken now just seemed like a cruel plot twist. One that I didn't know how to handle or process.The next thing that hit me was that Lee had a second chance mate and didn't want me anymore. That hit me in the gut. He would never cuddle me in bed again.

POV DeanI watched Willow as she ate breakfast. She barely acknowledged Devon, Lee or Livia when we entered the dining room. Hell, she barely said hi to anyone. I looked around and was surprised that her mom the other Luna's weren't here. I looked to my dad with confusion."Your Mom is with Luna Tracy and Luna Rose. Luna Rose didn't feel up to seeing everyone yet so they are having breakfast in one of the rooms." Dad said aloud to me and I nodded.I looked at Willow and saw a look of heartbreak pass over her face before she nodded. She then looked down and refused to make eye contact with anyone.Willow sat between Devon and I and Dad and Alpha Zack sat across from us with Carla and James. Lemon sat on the other side of Devon. Livia and Lee sat on my other side.Everyone looked at Willow in concern but she ignored us all. They then looked at me but I just shook my head at them, trying to tell them to leave her alone.

POV WillowI knew that Dean was right. I also knew that my brain was playing tricks on me. My brain was a bully. I knew it but that didn't stop me from feeling the panic, guilt and fear though.He stared at me for a moment. His eyes glazed over and he sighed."Dad just linked me. Everyone is ready to meet in your new office. Your Mom wants to see you. Will you join us?" he asked me.I paused. I liked that he asked me and didn't order me like he and everyone else used to do. Finally I nodded and he seemed to relax a bit.He grabbed my hand and I didn't pull away as we walked back into the pack house. After asking one of the nearby Moonstone pack wolves for directions, we arrived at a large, wooden door. I wrinkled my nose at it. I was going to have to change some things around here if I stayed. All this overwhelming pretentiousness was going to have to go. It was irritating me to no end.Dean opened the door and I cring

POV DeanI stared at Alpha Zack with anticipation. Could he really help us? I had meant what I said to Willow earlier. There was no chance in hell that I was going to give her up now. We had already overcome so much. If she was willing to forgive me and move passed everything I had fucked up, I was going to fight tooth and nail to make sure that we ended up together. As we should be. I would literally do anything for her. I was even ready to give up my pack. My spirits fell when my Dad brought up the Council. He was right about them. There was no way that they were going to allow us to remain mates and be Alphas. There were a limited amount of Alpha's in the world and each pack needed one. Each Alpha was taught from an early age that it was their duty to produce a heir so the pack would have a new Alpha when the other one retired or passed away.It didn't matter what the sex of the child was as long as it was a first born child of an Alpha.

POV WillowAs I asked Lee and Livia to be my beta's, I felt Dean tense. I knew that he wouldn't like this idea but it was my pack and I needed to have a beta couple that I could trust and right now, that was Livia and Lee. I also knew that it was going to be a bit painful for me to work with them so closely but I had to do what was best for my new pack and they were it, without a doubt. Livia already knew the ins and outs of the pack and she would be able to help advise us on how to operate and who to appoint where. Lee was great at planning and training. He was also a genius at tech. All things I lacked. Between the three of us, we had most of our bases covered.I turned to Devon and smiled."I'll accept the position of pack advisor for the Shadow pack if you will accept the same position for Moonstone?" I offer.He grinned and rushed over to me. He then picked me up in a hug and swung me around like he used to do w
