The Werewolf's Chapter 22: Betrayal

Chapter 22: Betrayal

RICK. (Beau’s Father)

I walk till I get to her tombstone. My heart aching from all that is happening. People are dying and it is happening all over again. I don’t know what to do. I don’t know how to make everything okay. As the alpha of the pack, everyone is looking to

to lead them to the right path but what do I do if I don’t know what that path is?

i stop in front of her grave and my heart beats. No matter what happens to your mate. You will always feel them. I can feel her even though she is dead. He na is on her tomb stone. Loraine Foxly. Mother and beloved wife. She left

and now I am alone.

Beau doesn’t understand responsibilities. He has never understood. He lives for the mont but that is not how life is. He can’t just think about himself. He has to think of the pack. I need him to understand where I am coming from; no matter what I do, he will always see

as the enemy. I know what is going to happen. I can already see it. Once people find out about his mating, they will challenge him being the alpha. No one will accept him; they will try to dethrone him—even kick him out of the pack. I am only thinking about him and when I am no longer here but he doesn’t want to understand.

"Loraine" I say her na and release a breath of relief. Saying her na is pure bliss. I miss her so much. I want to know what she is thinking about this situation. What advice would she give

if she was still alive. I am worried that what I am doing will end up pushing my son away. Beau has always been rash and him talking about deserting is scarier than mating with a vampire. I don’t want to lose him because of my reasoning.

"What should I do?" I am desperate for so answers. If only soone could help . Talk to . Make

understand the right thing to do. "He is in love and I am making him let go of his true love. Is this the right thing to do?"

I know what Loraine would’ve said. She would’ve told

to be a good father. To support him no matter what.

How do I be a good father and protect him at the sa ti. People are dying again.

"I need you right now" I fall to my knees and the tears start to fall. As the alpha I am not allowed to cry. I always have to keep up the fa??ade that I am strong enough but being here. Next to my one true love all the weakness that I have hidden all my life resurfaces and I know what to do. I know what I have to do. I have to support him. I have to be by his side through his challenges. He is my son. The most important person to

and I shouldn’t push him away. I attempt to stand up. I need to let him know that I accept him. My knees weaken and I fall back to the ground. A sudden sharp pain seeps through my chest.

"Fuck," I try to crawl my way back to him but all the strength in

is gone.

I Look up and a figure is sprawled blocking the rays of the sun. I squint my eyes and recognize the person "What are you doing here?" I manage still in imnse pain. The person is smiling, like watching my pain is the happiest thing he has ever witnessed. I reach for them but my body has completely given up "Help

brother," I plead trying to hold them.

He laughs and my heart breaks from the betrayal. Suddenly everything is clear. Whatever is wrong with

is because of him "What did you do to ?" I manage.

He continues laughing and I feel his kick "You deserve this. You will die and no one will help you," the evil smile is heart breaking. I never knew he felt this way. I never know he wanted

dead. This is my family. He is supposed to be by my side. I am supposed to be able to count on

and now he is going to be the end of . I can’t believe I wanted Beau to risk losing his one true mate for people that would rather see him dead.

I scream from the pain and he laughs harder "I really am sorry for this brother" he goes on his knees and my heart breaks that this is the last face I will see before i join Loraine. I close my eyes because I cannot die without Beau knowing that I accept him. I need him to fight for his love.

I connect my mind link to his with one last ssage.

Fight for him. Never let go of your mate.

He grabs until my neck in a choke hold and I feel the most intense pain as my body snaps away from my neck. The last person I see before I lose all the life in

is my Blood brother with the evillest expression on his face.

Fallon.
