She says hugging into me, i take the card from her hands and i open the door then hand it back to her, when i know she's protected I engulf my body in flames and I swing open the door, lines and lines of salt sat across my path, dark mountains ash was glued to the floor. I imagine in the hopes that nobody could break the barrier by accident. Taking a nervous breath I step over it, as I do the salt, the mountain ash and the glue burns to a crisp, breaking the barrier and allowing us to leave. But just as I look up to smile at Baylee I hear a gun go of, my heart freezes in fear as a small bullet flies across the room hitting the purple barrier surrounding Baylee, i hold my breath as it bounces of the purple glow and it hits me in the chest, the metal melts immediately but my temper rises. They just tried to kill Baylee? My present, my future, they tried to take her from me. Cade pushes forward letting off an earth shattering growl, our head snaps towards

Drakes POVWhat should have been a happy moment turned into a shit show, my heart basically fell out of my ass and the enemy mutilated it, pain like i could never imagine spreads across my body as the love of my life dies before my eyes.“No no NOOOOO dont fucking die lilly please no”I sob as her eyes close and her heart stops beating, i scream as i get flashbacks of the last perfect year, of how she had changed me for the better, of how she overcome all the pain and trauma from her past and used it as tools to make our pack better.she taught me how to feel, how to care, how to love so deeply i felt like i was drowning in happiness, but maybe thats why i only had her for one measly year, one stupid year out of rougly 80.I was a miserable, grumpy, demanding asshole before her, i was nothing before her and after? I cant even imagine how i could survive without her. Shes my everything. “Drake..”“Drake…”“DADDY

“Emma how could you do that?”I whisper in genuine shock“Because he was wrong! You guys needed to hear what she had to say “And we would have heird that from matt and ben, we didnt need to see her, she didnt need to be exposed to our plane, our things”Drake roars, i could feel his anger through the bond, it was pumping through him like blood, he was furious“How could you place her infront of the kids after everything they have been through?”I ask genuinly saddened by her actions“Drake i want to take the moment to apologise for my mates actions, if you would like my resignation i completly understand”“That wont be necasary matt, you are an amazing gamma, and that wont ever change but if we run into any more issues i will take emmas resignation, you will stay on as gamma matt but your mate will be just that, a mate, not a ranked member, she will have no pull or power, understand?”Matt looks reliev

“I’d like that, thank you”Baylee comes rushing over, she hugs me first before she climbs on Cadens knee“Can I stay with you too?”I kiss her little forehead “Ofcourse, why don’t we go up to the apartment, we can watch something while dad plans the wake”I clamp my eyes shut at the last word, the thought of dj and how and why he died hitting me again, making me angry and pissed yet devastated all at the same time. “Come mum I’ll walk you up”Caden whispers, standing up and taking my arm, as we leave the room he stops by the kitchen writing a note then we all head to the tv room in my apartment. It was very early in the morning yet it felt like time no longer existed. The kids choose something to watch as I lay in the corner, missing drake and dj already, the doctor would prepare him for the funeral while drake caught up with mum and dad and everything we had missed while we have been gone. “You ok?”He whispers through mindlink, I co
