Chapter 181 The Letter Says It All 

Ethan…

This was a name that carved into my bones. Someone I’d never forget, regardless whether I was in this world or not.

I took a deep breath and considered what she was asking me. I’d had a chance to say goodbye to my son. I would tell Vicky and Georgia how much I loved them and appreciated their friendship.

What, if anything, did I wish to say to Ethan?

I managed to shake my head a bit. “No,” I said,

Georgia’s eyes were wide open, as if she was heartbroken for her brother. However, seeing me fading, she didn’t press.

I whispered, “I’ve already told him everything I needed to say

“You have?” she asked, kneeling down next to me now.

“Yes, I told her. Tell him… tell him if he’s not sure what to think… how to interpret my feelings for him.. tell him to read the letter again.”

The letter?’ Vicky asked, clarifying She knew which one I meant.

The last time I thought I’d never see Ethan again, I’d told him everything. At the time, he’d thought I was already dead. Now that I was dying… there was nothing I’d want to say differently.

Closing my eyes, I finally admitted to myself that till this day, I still loved him. In fact, I had always loved him.

I came to understand that all of the fear, the anger, and the disappointment were because of the love I had for him.

Therefore, every lie he told, regardless whether he meant it or not, hurt. Every wrong he had done to me, regardless of how small it was, I couldn’t bear.

However, now I was at the end of my life, all I could see closing my eyes was his gentle blue eyes on me. I could almost smell his scent I longed for his arms around me

Yes. The letter says it all.”

**Ethon’s POV

“Alpha, our defense had been pushed back.”

“Alpha, the enemy’s reinforcements have arrived, Led by King Kal, and they are approaching.”

“Alpha, it’s urgent! They are starting to surround us!”

A large map was stretched out across the table in front of us, and as the different messengers came in to report the information about troop movements out on the battlefield, I pleced markers wherever the enemy troops were located. “How many are there?” I asked one of the messengers, a tall, slender man with a pale face who looked terrified. No wonder he wasn’t a warrior.

“On the right side, they have moved up at least twelve thousand warriors, sir,” he said, swallowing hard.

I nodded. “And the left?’

“Our reports show that there are at least ten thousand on the left, sir.” He blinked a few times, like he wos trying to get

the courage up to tell me the total number. “And… another ten thousand in the center.”

“King Kal is out there. And King James’s troops are moving here as well.”

I looked up to see that the voice was commander Landon’s. He would know what Kal looked like

He would also know why it was important to note the man’s arrival.

Slowly, I nodded in understanding

“How long?” I asked the messengers.

“Sir?” the tall one who had been reporting asked, clearly not understanding.

I didn’t have time to explain myself. “How long, dammit!” I shouted at him

Three days, I think,” he stammered. “Maybe_ five? They are coming fast, but the forest is dense there. It depends on how long it takes them to get through the underbrush.’

I did some quick calculations, including the numbers I already knew to be positioned in the three different sectors, and the number of troops amassed against us was staggering

We are outnumbered at least five to one’i mumbled. I looked at the maps again, continuing to check the math in my head, but I was sure I was right.

And they were coming toward us quickly. At this rate, with these numbers, they could easily surround us, cut the palace off from the outside world, and lay siege to our city until we all starved to death or surrendered

We would have to think of something major that we could do to stop them. Otherwise, all was lost.

All of sudden, my heart started to pound in fear.ro

I couldn’t think, I couldn’t feel, and I couldn’t breathe. It was as if part of me was dying.

‘Alpha,’ Talon looked at me worriedly. He asked through mindlink, ‘You all right?

Talon, I need a moment. Take over the meeting.’

I stabilized myself and announced, “Commander Landon, my Beta will continue going through the detailed reports with everyone. I need some quiet time to sort through my thoughts.”

With that, I turned and walked out of the room.

Without any reason, I just knew I needed to see Rosalie, right then. Something was wrong but I was afraid to think of the possibility

As i was rushing through the palace, I told myself that she would be fine. She said she’d be fine a couple of days ago She said she just needed to rest and asked me to help her to lead her people while she was recovering.

However, deep in my soul, a terrifying feeling called out, urging me to move faster and faster. With every step that I took, the twisting motion within me became worse. No matter how much I tried to be positive, I felt like everything was hopeless

As I stepped through the threshold of her room, I saw both Georgia and Vicky standing around her bed, tears filling their eyes. My arrival shocked them.

I tried to get my head around the situation. My gaze fell upon Rosalie, who laid very still on the bed she was resting in.

For a moment, my heart stopped.
