Chapter 98

AMELIA’S POV

Stirring from my slumber with my senses gradually coming back to me, I was greeted by the sound of mu ffled s obs echoing through my room. Confusion clouded my mind for a moment before I realized that it was Kyla. She sat on the floor, resting her back against the wall, in tears.

Struggling against the waves of pain that washed over me with each movement I made in a bid to look at her, I turned my head to face her, wincing as I did so. Kyla rushed to my side, her face etched with concern and worry as she was now in the know of my consciousnes.

“Please, Amelia, don’t strain yourself,” she pleaded as her voice trembled. “You need to take it easy and let yourself heal.”

I managed a weak smile, though the pain that coursed through my body made it difficult to find any semblance of comfort.

“I’ll be fine, Kyla,” I reassured her as the words came out strained and breathless.

“Why are you crying?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper as I struggled to make sense of the situation. “Is everything alright?”

Kyla shook her head, tears glistening in her eyes as she tried to compose herself.

“I just… I feel so sad seeing you like this,” she admitted, her voice choked with whatever emotion made her begin to cry in the first place.. “You don’t deserve to suffer like this, Amelia. You tried your best for this pack and you still do. It’s not fair.”

Her words struck a chord deep within me, stirring a swell of gratitude and affection for the sister who had stood by my side through thick and thin.

Tears welled up in my own eyes as I reached out to grasp her hand, squeezing it tightly in a silent gesture of appreciation and understanding.

“Thank you, Kyla,” I whispered, “But it was my fault.”

“How is it your fault?” She asked, not agreeing with my point of view.

“I didn’t do as ordered, Kyla. Lbroke the rules.” I said. I didn’t want her to have any
