Chapter 232
Griffon’s pov
Time stands still, after my mother’s blood splatters into my face, the witch disappears with a smirk on her face, and my body falls to the ground.
I sit there staring at the spot where she was. Where he was. People with blurry faces rush into the room, but all I can see is red.
Red swirls around the air like a mist, but I continue to breath it in, because I can’t move. I can’t think, I can’t… I don’t even know. I just can’t.
The last thing I said to my mom starts running on repeat in my head as I stare at her blood.
This is all my fault.
Everything.
She tried to warn me. She tried to tell me. I was so under her spell that I refused to listen.
My eyes slowly turn towards her. The bitch that had me under her spell. The bitch that got my parents killed.
She has tears streaking down her cheeks, screaming for my father as Walker, and Henry hold her captive.
My father, that’s who she’s worried about, even after everything.
I look up at Walker, who’s barely using any strength to hold her and is looking around the room wide eyed. I turn to find Cole doing the same as he tries to get Dallas to focus.
Dallas just stares at the spot my mother evaporated.
My heart rips out of my chest when I hear Heather’s scream. Her heartbreak pierces through mine, as my eyes turn towards her and see Micah barely able to hold her back from coming the rest of the way in the room.
All of this because of me.
If I just would have listened.
Walker hands Clara off and walks over to me. “Stand up, Alpha. You have a job to do now.” He grits out. His face stern and uncaring as he looks at me.
He blames me. He blames me for losing two of his best friends, and I can hardly blame him.
My heart hardens as I pick myself off the ground and look at my pack.
Walker’s pov*
I stand beside my new Alpha, trying like hell to stay composed as I stare at the blood coating the walls like paint.
My best friends, my Alpha and Luna… Gone.
How do packs move on from something like this?
Especially, when one of the reasons it happened is now your new Alpha. Calling him my Alpha taste like vile on

my tongue. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to look passed this.
My eyes latch onto my mate kneeled down next to Heather in the hall, and hers reach up to meet mine.
The sadness in them makes me want to punch someone, makes me want to bring them back. But I can’t. I can’t do anything.
I’ve finally found a problem I can’t solve.
I’ve failed my Alpha and Luna.
Cole’s pov*
This isn’t a joke.
This isn’t something we can bounce back from.
This isn’t something we’ll all laugh about later, years down the road when the threat is gone and we’re all still
here.
Because we’re not ‘all’ still here.
I continue trying to shake Dallas out of wherever his mind is. He’s just staring at one spot in the room. The spot I’m assuming Amy disappeared from.
We couldn’t see or hear what was happening and the door wouldn’t budge. We couldn’t get in to help and that’s something that’ll haunt me, but we’re still a pack. Dallas is still one of my best friends and I’ll be damned if I lose another one.
My heart is heavy and all I want to do is rip it out, but I can’t I’ll hold this pain, and theirs if they need me to.
Dallas’s pov*
Heather’s heartbreaking scream yanks me from the numbness I was feeling and a spine shattering pain rips through my body.
She’s gone,
She’s… Gone…
Her haunting final scream still echos around the room.
This can’t be real. This can’t be happening.
The hard lines of Cole’s face tell me I’m wrong, tells me that this isn’t a dream that I’ll wake up from.
He notices the shift in me and takes a deep breath before helping lift me up and stand on shaky legs.
My eyes go to the door where I see Mia trying to comfort Heather, even through the streams of tears falling down her own face.
I feel my heart crack and black coat the hole.
My eyes turn to Griffon. His face stern as he looks at the aftermath of his actions. If he’d only had listened. If I

only had been better.
Another crack wracks my soul, and numbness coats it.
