The One He Claimed by Cooper

Chapter 120

Tonight has been a somber event, more heartbreaking than I had expected. Maybe it's because I'm not sure that my pack would grieve this much for me if I were to pass, or maybe it's because my mate is lying unconscious in Hunter's pack hospital that I'm feeling so wrung out emotionally.

"Luna Amy and I would sit in here every day. She was so kind to me," she says, grabbing some tissues and taking a seat. "I know it's not the same for her as it was for me, but I had hoped that she would survive the loss of her mate. I think I feel lonelier now that I did with Elias died."

I give her a few moments to collect herself. When she looks at me, her gaze is direct and full of intelligence. I'm guessing she has an idea of why I wanted to speak to her.
