Semua Bab My True Mate: Bab 221 - Bab 230

SarahI look around at the carnage and realize the true extent of the slaughter we just unleashed upon them. All around us, the dead lie at our feet. Honestly, I blacked out through most of it. I just kept thinking of Lucas and Fergus. Needing to keep our family safe and get better to them fueled me. Now that I’m out of acute danger, I’m exhausted.Though as I look at Adriana, I wonder if the danger is truly over. Her eyes are red and dark tears drip from them. She looks around at the carnage and I can tell her heart is breaking.She steps towards me. Everyone is too afraid to go close to her. She’s vulnerable. I suspect that after this display of power, she’s weak.I could maybe kill her in this moment. I truly suspect I could. And if I did, I might be able to ensure safety for my family and my pack. Her brother is already dead. She seems like the next biggest threat.“Please,” she says, looking at me with those pleading eyes. “Stop. Just stop.”I share a look with Lucas. He

SarahPeople follow flock to us as soon as we’re out of the house. I’m surprised to see that Dustin is one of the most eager ones to approach us.“I heard what happen,” he says, keeping up with our quick pace as we head back towards the forest. “I want to help. We all do.”“Form search teams,” I instruct him.I suspect that I’ll be able to find Fergus on my own. I have something inside me pulling me to where he is. The instinct is strong and powerful.Yet I can’t fully trust it. Because that same instinct convinced me to let Adriana go, and if we had just slaughtered them all while we were there, none of this would be happening.“Same as before,” I continue. “Everyone should know the drill by now.”“Are you going to lead them?” Dustin asked. “Are you going to gather everyone together? Are you going to organize this?”“I already have,” I snarled. “We organized these groups twice before. You take over the rest for now. I’m going to go find Fergus.”At that, I shift into my w

SarahMy heart sinks at his words. I can’t fully comprehend what he’s saying. It’s that absurd. Does he really think he could become Alpha of our pack?“You see, I’ve been watching you,” he continues. “I’ve been watching your pack from afar now. I’ve seen the turmoil, and you’ve had a lot of it. I’ve seen the way you’ve triumphed over it. I’ve seen your epic displays of strength.“I decided long ago that your pack is truly mine. I just waited for the perfect opportunity. I made plans, changing them each time. I knew I’d only have one shot at this. It had to be done right.”Regret fuels me. Because we gave him that perfect opportunity. We showed our weakness.“When you left, I knew I had to act,” Adam continues. “So, I watched again until I found a weak spot. Then, I raced in and took Fergus.”“You need to give him back,” I insist.He holds all the cards though. We’re vulnerable, and I hate it. He could let our child die. We could lose Fergus. We’re at his mercy now and I doubt

SarahShock threatens to overwhelm me as we walk away from our home. I never thought I’d be doing something like this. I never thought I’d be leaving my pack behind again, giving up the position of Alpha to a stranger.It’s different than stepping aside for Lucas to be Alpha was. I trusted him. I knew he’d be a good leader.I have no idea what kind of leaders Adam and Daniella will be but judging off of the way they took their power, I doubt it will be good. They don’t exactly seem like moral people. Most importantly, they don’t deserve this. They weren’t meant to lead a pack. So, I don’t like living my pack in their hands. Everything within me rages against it.I hold Fergus closer to me. He’s had a long day, so he’s starting to drift off and he seems so peaceful. He’s unbothered by everything going on around him. He just knows he has his mother and his father.“I’m so grateful for you,” I tell Lucas, as we keep walking.“And I for you,” he tells me. “I truly couldn’t do thi

LucasI can tell Sarah made a good choice once again in coming to the fairies because Brandon seems to love it and I can sense Sarah getting in a better mood as well. Her smile is coming back to her, some of the energy that was drained is returning.My own spirit is rising just by being here as well. I think it’s the sense of magic and mystery that awaits us. It’s the way the air sparkles as we walk through it and the happiness of the fairies which is simply contagious.It’s a place of peace and rejuvenation. And though of course, we’re all in despair about our status of Alpha being taken from us, and Sarah and I are incredibly worried about the fate of our pack, here we can breathe. We can relax just a little and think more clearly about what we should do next.“You seem to be relaxing,” Annabella notes, as she joins me and Sarah.We set Fergus on the ground to run around the safe haven, knowing he’s protected here. Even he seems happier, his little face lighting up with the gl
