The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 204

Chapter 204
My wolf whined in agony, her head dropping low as Raizel’s wolf rubbed himself against her.
“But it wasn’t enough because they had to take her too.”
I curled my hands around his arm.
“They took Lila. And you know whats the worst part? I saw it happen. Draxyn, Xeneron’s commander, ripped into her small body. He didn’t give her a quick death. Probably because he wanted me to think I had a chance. So I fought him, managed to knock him out and carried her as far as I could. Ran straight toward the pack borders hoping the neighboring pack could help. I was so desperate. So desperate to save her life. I prayed to the Goddess, begging her to take me instead. I reached out to my parents, to Hestia, hoping one one of them would answer. They didn’t. So I reached out to the last person who could help me. I reached out to him. To Landon.”
Memories flash through my mind before I could stop it. The memories I didn’t do well in shielding away from him.
I know he saw them.
I know Raizel saw them.
His body goes frigid and although there was no use in saying it out loud, I felt compelled to.

“I tried to call for him, but he ignored me. He mated my sister. Marked her as she did him. With Lila dying in my arms, bleeding out to death as I pushed myself to keep running, they’ve bonded. I couldn’t handle it. My body couldn’t handle it. It was too much. I couldnt keep myself going because I was so weak. I couldn’t move. Couldn’t speak. The only thing I could remember was Lila. I passed out, and the next time I opened my eyes it was too late.”
“I woke up in Greyhound. Meredith was there. She found me outside of their borders, said I was only six minutes away from reaching them. If I hadn’t passed out, I could’ve saved her. I’m not st upid, the chances were slim but still, a chance was a chance. A chance I would’ve given anything for. Meredith offered me to take my place in Greyhound. To avenge the deaths of Duskfall. And I took it. Found Isaac, Bentley’s son, and began again. I was the only one who lived from Duskfall and I wasn’t even formally a Duskfall member yet.”
I hold my breath, knowing dam n well I could just barely hold on. I couldn’t say anything more, think anything more. I’ve laid out my cards to him. My faults. My weakness. Everything.
I waited for some kind of disgust to pulse in our bond.
To feel some sort of pity.
Anything.
But instead, i feel him turn me so that i was facing him and crushed me into his chest. He held onto me so tight, arms bound around me like steel as he breathed out a ragged breath. His warm breath fans over my skin in our silence.
“My little wildflower is so strong.”
He whispers, kissing my face as he held my head between his hands.
“You are not weak. Not then, and not now. You were never weak, my love. You were always strong.”
I couldn’t help but laugh at that.
A p athetic, broken laugh as I stared up at him.
“Don’t lie to me, Raizel. You know I wasn’t. I couldn’t save any of them. I couldn’t save her. I was
weak. Not strong. Never strong.”
He shakes his head, cupping my cheek gently before pressing his forehead against mine. The tip of his nose bumps with mine but I don’t pull away. Not even when I know he’s going to deny everything. I’ve said.
