Life After the Storm

I close my eyes and accept our fate. I know it's cowardly, but I am just so tired of fighting. Maybe it would just be better off. I feel it would be better not to give up mentally, but physically I just can't handle anymore. As the footsteps sound right next to me, then stop. I then hear a voice that I have never heard before. Jayden wraps me into a bear hug. I put his head into my chest.

Then a power that I have never felt before begins to run through my veins. I am not understanding where I am getting this strength from, but I then shift into my wolf. I block Jayden from them, not knowing wha I'm about to get myself into, but not caring. I will give my life to protect his.

I feel like I am full of rage, and it's hard to control as I let out a howl that is so infuriating that it pushes back the person who is closest to us. I notice that they aren't shifted, not understanding why. I will not be taken easily, and I will do whatever is necessary to protect my cub. I stomp my front paw to show that I'm not taking any kind of mercy, and that's when I see Landon rushing to get to me.

Before Landon approaches me, a woman speaks. "It's okay, we are not here to hurt you but help you."

Then Landon's mind links me." It's true they're here to help us, it's ok Lilly, you can trust them."

I become overwhelmed with emotion. Can I trust him? I did before and he left me down. I want to trust him but can I trust him with my life again? What about Jayden? I can't sacrifice him? He is my life, the reason why I breathe. I want to trust Landon, I do, but what if it's another trap? Lost in my thoughts, I then feel a little grip on my paw and I hear the sweetest voice. "It's ok Lilly, we can trust daddy, He will neve let anyone hurt you ever again I promise."

My body full of rage, wanting to protect him, is now starting to relax. Once I fully feel relaxed, I began to feel weak and fall to the ground. Everything just goes black. I feel that I fainted, but I can still hear what is happening around me but not being able to react to their words.

"Lilly Lilly wake up, are you okay baby, please wake up."

"Landon, she will be fine, she has. Fainted, let's take her back to the home instead, and we will get her hooked up to some fluids to help strengthen her weak body."

"I shouldn't have ran her so ragged. I should have allowed us to rest properly, but I was too scared that they would capture us."

"Landon, she will be fine, you did what you thought you had to. Do, she will be fine, I promise you."

"Thank you mother, I have missed you so much, I'm so sorry I didn't listen to you."

"It's ok my sweet boy, you were following your heart, your mate, that is what is expected of you."

"Mother, why is father doing all this?"

"For now, son, let's focus on Lilly. Why don't you carry her since she is exposed. We will head back and get her the help that she needs for now."

I feel his firm hands pick up my lifeless body up. I then begin to tingle all over by his touch, wait is his touch affecting me but why. I thought only your mate can affect you this way. What is happening is Ivan dead. I would have felt it if he died, wouldn't I have.

"Jayden, come it's ok we are safe, we need to get Lilly back, so we can help her."

"Ok, daddy, you can't hurt her again because I promised her that you wouldn't hurt her ever again."

"Jayden, I won't ever hurt her again I promise now let's hurry."Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

I want to try to let my mind fall into a sleep. I feel so tired, but it's like I'm too scared too. They walk back in silence. I have no idea where I'm going, which makes me nervous as fuck. I want to trust Landon, but I'm scared. He gave me to Ivan. What if he is giving me to these people?

I want to wake up, I try to force my eyes to open, but I can't. I have no control over my body. I'm so confused between wanting to sleep and fighting to wake up. Know matter how hard I try, I can't keep my mind awake. I then fall into a deep slumber.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
