Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter Sixty Six

I stared at my father’s lifeless body from the casket he had been placed in. He looked very much the same as he always had the worry lines on his face were gone, and he seemed to be at peace. Alexander tightened his grip on my hands, comfortingly.

–

All the members of the Dawn Pack were present, and even some from the Nightshade Pack.

“We gather to mourn the loss of a great man–a father to us all, an Alpha. Death truly is vile; it renders even the greatest helpless. He was taken from us too soon; only the goddess knows the reason. Though he is dead, his legacy lives on. Dawn will never forget him; I will never forget him.” Gadiel finished. He was once Chief Commander of the Dawn Pack’s soldiers, I didn’t know the position he held in the Nightshade pack. It was my turn to speak before the pack; it was my turn to comfort them; I didn’t think I could do it. There was a moment of complete silence. I looked up at Alexander, and he nodded at me; somehow that was motivation enough.

“My father was indeed a good man. He loved this pack; each and every one of you had a place in his heart; he lived his life in service to the ‘pack. He was also a strong man; nothing fazed him, and I’m sure when death did come to claim him, he looked upon death with a smile on his face.” paused; I couldn’t cry; I had to be strong, so I held in my tears. “He would always be a source of strength to us all, a source of motivation, and though dead, he lives on in our minds and in our hearts.”

“He lives on in our minds and hearts,” the crowd re–echoed. Aric took his position by my side as we all watched my father’s casket being lowered into the burial pit, on the same sacred grounds as his father’s and grandfather’s. A stone lid was then placed over the pit, sealing it.

“This was what he wanted. He wanted to be buried here.”

“And you’ve fulfilled his last wish.” Aric said. “You did everything in your power, Kaida; you couldn’t have been able to save him.”

“I know that. Alexander informed me that you will take a look in the pack house to see what you can find.”

“There’s nothing in there, Kaida.”

One by one, people left; life had to move on. In the end, only Alexander, Aric, Gadiel, and I remained.

“We should…”

Gadiel never got to finish speaking–an arrow came out of nowhere, piercing his back and stabbing through his heart. His eyes widened, and he fell to the ground, his blood spilling over the stone covering my father’s grave.

Alexander shielded me and in this same moment, he took out his gun and shot. A body landed from the trees afar off to the floor. The footsteps approaching got louder; it seemed to be coming from all sides.

“Rogues.” Aric sneered.

I drew both my daggers, there were about twenty–three of them.

“For Malone!” they shouted in unison, charging toward us. I ran to meet them head–on. I stabbed the first in the heart, the second, I slit his throat, the third wasn’t as easy to kill; he kicked me to the ground, but I was quick to rise back to my feet. I stabbed my dagger into his eyes, and he let out a pained scream. His head was severed off and blood splattered on my face. I looked up to see Alexander with a sword in his hands–of course the sword must have belonged to the rogues.

I slid beneath one of the rogues and tore through his lower half. I sliced at his leg, and he collapsed to the ground.

I kicked him over and again until his nose smashed into his skull. I felt a rogue’s grip on my neck as he brought me down to the ground. Before I could react, he was sliced in two by… Alexander.
