Chapter 65: Taking Charge

Ivy POV

The conversation was over. Hoisted over Hales’ shoulder, I was carried upstairs towards my room. The swears and curses of my frustration trailed behind us as I made Damian aware of how pissed off I really was.

“I’m sick of your shit, Damian!” I yelled again before my bedroom door was kicked open and Hale dropped me down on the bed with a bounce.

“Ivy, please. I know you’re upset, but we are going to try and figure something out.”

Sitting up on my knees, l jabbed him in the chest. “That isn’t good enough. Damian’s version of trying to figure things out is when he feels like it. If Talon is being poisoned, we have to help him now!”

 

“I’m sorry, Ivy.” Hale replied as he backed away from me. “We can’t risk someone else getting killed.”

Jumping off my bed, I gave a frustrated groan. “It isn’t his fault, Hale. He doesn’t know what he is doing.”

“I’m aware, but that doesn’t excuse what’s happening. You can’t be involved in this.”

“Why?” I scoffed, “because I’m so defenseless and will get killed?”

Hale was silent, and as I paced up and down my room, I couldn’t help but take my frustration out on everything around me. Object after object was picked up and thrown across the room. Tears streaming down my face, with the feeling of hopelessness building in my chest.

This had all been my fault, and that was the realization that killed me the most.

“He’s your fucking brother, Hale.” I replied with defeat as I faced him, “how can you fucking act okay with this? Why aren’t you out there yourself, fighting the situation and trying to get him home?”

Clear frustration ran through his expression, and I was aware I wasn’t being fair to him. At the same time, though, he and the others were not being fair to Talon. They were acting as if Talon was a lost cause, and he wasn’t.

“Ivy, as much as I want to go, if for some reason we did. if something happened to you, I would never forgive myself. I would never be able to get over losing you.”

There was raw emotion and turmoil running through his voice as he spoke. The way it cracked when he talked about losing me made it all the more real.

Hale felt guilty over what he did when I tricked his wolf into claiming me.

He felt guilt for not staying with me when the bond severed, and now he felt guilt over Talon.

He wasn’t the only one, though. I felt the guilt too.

Me coming to this place had changed so much of their life, and even though I hadn’t asked for any of it… I wasn’t making it better.

Since I had woken up from the incident with Caleb, I had done nothing but fuck things up one thing at a time. My biggest mess up was not listening to what Damian and the others were telling me.
