Chapter 201: Animorphos

Inez looked at the countless graves that had been dug overnight. The kids who were taken away from their rightful places had finally returned, but in silence. The pack seemed to have been shrouded with a thick layer of nothing but grief and sorrow. The loss of the pups was always a big loss, but this felt even more personal as she watched the parents cry their hearts out while trying to look for their child, who might never return.

She turned to look at Killian, who stood just a bit far from her. He was staring at the graves that were being closed up one by one. Those stiff shoulders, those clenched fists, they told a different story. She wanted to go ahead and stand next to him, but Inez knew that Killian would not appreciate it.

He wanted a moment of silence where he could accept the grief that was rolling in the air like the scent of the fresh soil that had been dug up.

Her heart ached for him because Inez knew that Killian was blaming himself for the things that happened. For the loss of life that happened right under his nose. They stood in silence as the funeral ceremony ended.

However, Inez knew that she had to bring Killian away from here. All the anger, blame and grief must be leaking into the pack bond. It must be stifling. She tried to channel her concern into the bond, but she knew with so many people cursing and yelling, her concern would be lost.

She sighed and walked over to where Killian was standing. She placed her hand on his forearm and then steered the man away from the graveyard. She told him, "It’s not your fault."

The man grunted but didn’t say a word.

Inez didn’t force him to say anything because she knew that he would start talking in due time. As the two of them headed down the rocky trail, she heard Killian say, "It was my mistake. I was too confident. I thought that I could see through their patterns that I knew what they were doing."
