The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 27

Chapter 27
Feeling so much at the same time that I couldn’t feel it anymore made me this way.
I was so far gone.
“The rest of them… were unsalvageable.”
Alpha Crestfield explained. She looked at the sea of bodies with false indifference. I could feel her sadness radiate off her but she wouldn’t let it show on her face. Not in front of me, not in front of her pack members.
“Just limbs and pieces left behind.”
“And the Alpha?”
Alpha Crestfield went quiet. I looked at her, surprised to see her lips forming a deep frown.
“Dismembered and tossed in the river with the Luna.”
My eyes widened as a sharp whimper left me. My wolf’s ears hanging low with her tail in between her legs. Her sadness mixed with mine as we thought back to the kind words of the Alpha our Alpha. A whole bloodline was erased.
The Alpha, the Luna and then, their son.
The rogues really didn’t leave anything behind. Nothing, except me.
“The girl…”
I stiffened.
“She’s over there.”

I followed Alpha Crestfield to the corner of the morgue. A small body bag laid on the table. I looked at the Alpha, her mo uth not moving but her eyes telling me to go on. Lifting my hand up, I took the zipper in my fingers and slowly unzipped the bag. A wad of curly brown hair peeked through, her face pale without blood to color her skin, her eyes closed and thick lashes casting shadows under her eyes, her small button nose, dry and colorless lips in a pout.
She looked so at peace, as though she was sleeping and not completely out of my reach.
“Ho How did you find me?”
Alpha Crestfield stood behind me. She placed a hand on my back. Her warmth sending a soothing touch to both me and my wolf. She felt so… motherly.
“You were within my territory. Only six minutes away.”
My eyes went misty with tears that refused to fall. After all the crying I’ve done, I couldn’t handle it anymore. I was tired trying to be strong. Tired of trying to stop it. I knelt down, sniffling as I wrapped my arm over her cold, lifeless body. Her words calling me “mama” replaying in my head. Pressing my head on her stomach, I cried for my loss. Cried for the people I grew to love but lost all too quickly.

I cried for the weakness I had.
Cried for my inability to have done something.

Cried for the lives I desperately wanted to save.
Cried for the fact I was left alone yet again.
Cried for the family I held love for, only to find out they wanted me dead.
Cried for the mate that cruelly abandoned me when I needed him most.
Cried for letting Lila slip through my fingers.
But most of all, I was angry.
Angry at the people who had done this.
Angry at my biological family.
Angry at the bond that ruined me inside and out.
Angry at the Moon Goddess who seemed to be so h ell bent on bringing me misfortune.
Angry at Landon and Hestia for mating and marking each other, causing me to pass out with Lila dying within my arms reach.
Angry at myself for not being able to push through when help was literally six minutes
away.
Had I kept pushing, kept going, had I not passed out, I would’ve had a chance to save her. A slim chance, but a chance regardless. A chance I would’ve taken for anything.
