I harshly threw her away and when I saw her hit her back on the wall I raised my claw to slash Alexanders' neck but before my claws reach Alexander's neck, I felt a sudden surge of unbearable pain in my chest. It feels as if my chest has been stabbed and was bleeding uncontrollably, but when I looked at my chest, I was totally fine and I got no wound nor was I bleeding. And then I immediately turned to look at Vanessa and I was devastated at the sight before. She was holding her heart in her hand as her blood kept on gushing out of her chest and her mouth. "You..." I said. "I... told you... I'd kill myself..." She said weakly. The color of her face started going pale. Her veins glowed green

He frantically touched his face, now a grotesque puddle of melted features. In the midst of the chaotic scene, Dexter, the cunning and ruthless predator, identified an opening and seized the opportunity to strike. With lightning-fast reflexes, he thrust his razor-sharp claws deep into the executioner's chest, tearing through flesh and bone alike until he located his target: the heart that sustained his foe's life force. With a savage grunt, Dexter ripped the heart from its moorings, holding it aloft as he let out a triumphant roar, signaling his brutal victory.

I told him and he ran to her. I plugged in my earphones and started to jog in a different direction to give those love birds some space. It was very difficult to move on from that fateful tragedy. I tried different things to keep my mind away from those dreadful memories and eventually jogging helped me. So now I have started to rely on it. No one in my family talks to me about that night except Bhai and my two best friends. The rest of my family thinks that not talking about it will make me forget about it but that's not the case. I don't want to hurt them that's why only Bhai, Adya and Aditi know about me still having those nightmares. Oh, I forgot to tell you guys, Aditi is my other best

I hit the dirt, coughing up a mouthful of hot, thick blood. "Is that it?" Vex laughed, stepping into my perimeter, her silver eyes flashing with pure, arrogant dominance. She raised the cleaver, her muscles bunching for the kill. "Thorne told me your brain was melting from the inside out. I expected a real fight before your baseline broke completely."

Something whole. This was what they'd been fighting for. This moment. This family. This messy, beautiful, imperfect life. Leo grabbed her nose, giggling. Mira laughed and kissed his forehead. The fireflies danced. The roses bloomed. And somewhere, in a place where ghosts no longer lingered, Victor Delacroix smiled. --- The End.

It was the only way to get through the days, to outrun the quiet heartbreak that had settled deep in my bones. The days bled into weeks, each one a carbon copy of the last. Everything was a trigger. The smell of grass from an open window made me think of the soccer field. The sound of a slamming locker sent a jolt through me, a ghost of his presence. I’d see a tall guy with blond hair from behind and my heart would leap into my throat before my brain could catch up and remind me it wasn’t him. I wondered, sometimes, in my weakest moments, if he felt the same. Was he walking through his own version of this colorless hell?

"You called for us urgently. Is there new information about Vex?" I nod, gesturing to the scrolls laid out on the table. "Yes, there is, and it's a revelation that changes everything. Look at this," I say, unrolling the scroll that holds the image of Vex and the young boy. "It's a portrait of Vex with a child, a boy who bears an uncanny resemblance to Zion."

I begrudgingly stood up too as he walked…strolled powerfully into the room, followed by a young man who wad…. wait a minute. My knees grow weak immediately when I saw the young man behind the alpha, even as I squinted my eyes because surely my sights were deceiving me. Oh no. I gasped as my heart dropped into my stomach, my chest squeezing painfully and knocking the breath out of me. Pain shot to my heart from every nerve in my body, breaking it into a million pieces.

I owe them that much for all they did for me, when I nearly lost myself. Her face floods my vision, as if she’s standing right before me. Sobs ripping from my chest. I miss her more than I will ever admit. My one chance at happiness and a family, stolen because some demon went on a rampage at a concert, killing over forty people and sucking each and every one of their souls from their bodies. Soraya, my mate, had been there with several other pack members, just ready for a good night. Like I said, we do our best to blend in with society. We gravitate towards the same things other creatures and humans do. In that way, we’re no different.

She whispered, a sly smile spreading across her face. As she exhaled heavily, she dropped her arms and walked into her daughter's room next door. "I'm a greedy woman with determination that surpasses that of a wounded woman. You hurt me with words, and I'll retaliate. I'm an avenger of my hurt feelings, a half-killed snake with venom more deadly than a whole one,"
