This is it. This is the end. I wish I could have gotten to say goodbye to Zaden. I closed my eyes waiting for the end, but it never came there was a terrible growl, the one I knew well enough. The growl of an Alpha, the growl of my mate. I whined at the familiar black wolf and sagged. I knew I would be safe in the presence of my mate, he would protect me. I heard the distant crashing of others fighting they must have heard me scream and came running. Good thing too or they would have been dead too. I still felt like I might. Blood. There was so much blood. Around me pooling and most of it was from the rogues. Wolves healed fast, yes, but they could still bleed out .I could still bleed out. Tired. I was so tired I just wanted to close my eyes and go to sleep.
