I watched with helpless eyes as the life I had painstakingly built unraveled before me. Everything that I had worked for, for years on end, was about to be taken away by the most dangerous person I knew.
My cunning and despicable step-brother; Julian.
At that moment, I desperately looked up to the Moon Goddess and prayed for a miracle, because I knew, if the mantle of Alpha was passed on to him, we would all be doomed.
"Our mate weeps," Vane's voice mirrored the pain he was feeling.
My eyes flicked to the side. I could see Waverly's solemn expression, although her eyes became tinged with sorrow a moment after, when our eyes met. She seemed like she had accepted her fate. At that moment, a thousand words were spoken without either of us parting our lips.
Was this karma? Was I being punished for all the wrong I had committed in the past?
But why did the universe see fit to drag my innocent mate into this mess?
