"Marcus!!!" Jackson sat on the ground. He felt Marcus body getting cold. Jackson's eyes were stuck on the silver arrow in his chest. The blood was dried. His wound was black that means he is poisoned. Edwina was crying. Jackson has never seen her crying like that... She was whimpering in pain. "Jack, it hurt so much!!! It hurts here." She put her hand on her chest. The tears were rolling on her cheeks. "Who did this with my pack? My Alpha, my brother... He is on the verge of death. Everyone is dead. Jason, I saw his dead body. My best friend is dead." Jackson was groaning in pain. "Edwina, he is taking his last breaths. We are going to lose him." Jackson said. Edwina looks towards his face. She slapped him so hard. Her eyes were filled with rage, she grabbed him from the collar. "Shut up. Don't say it. He is alive. We have to get him some help. I am calling my father... We are taking him to my pack." Edwina said. She was feeling the deep pain in her heart. She is not his mate. But he means the world to her... He is everything to her. She never wanted to leave him but he was happy with his mate. Edwina thought she will come in between them, it will cause problems. She knew that Marcus can not love anyone more than her off she will in front of his eyes. So, she left... But looking at his state. She was regretting leaving him. "Edwina... Look." Jackson called her. She came out from the bubble of her thoughts. She saw Marcus breaths become even. The black wound was healing then coming back... It was the effect of poison. But his wolf was still in there healing it. So, tha means they have a chance to save him. "Where is Luna? Where is Isabey?" Jackson panicked looking in all the directions? He knew that mate bond is so strong. Maybe Isabey blood can heal him but she was nowhere to be seen... He searched everywhere but he didn't found her body. It only means one thing they have taken her with them... "Who are you looking for?" Edwina shouted. "Edwina, we can save him. His wolf is still in there... Maybe Isabey blood can help him. She is his mate. My wolf can feel Magnus. " Jackson said with a glint of hope in his eyes. "Jackson, I think the ceremony didn't complete. Look there is no mark on his neck. That girl can not help him." Edwina gritted her teeth. "Jackson, he is healing. It's his wolf. We have to call for help. Go bring Reuben here. We will leave from here before the council came here..." Edwina said. "I am calling my father with a few warriors. Go." She said then start dialling a number over her phone. Jackson got up running back to where he left Reuben. Jackson ran to him looking at wounds on his body. Reuben was terrified. He was shaking with fear, there were claw marks all over his body. His eyes were lifeless. "Jason...ugh, Where... Is Jason?" He said with difficulty. Jackson sobbed. "Come on. We have to take you from here." He grabbed Reuben hand. "Ugh, I wi..will... go but not with it Jason." Reuben groaned in pain. "Reuben, he is dead." Jackson said. "No... I tried..to save him. They... They shot him with sil..silver. I saw him..." Reuben said crying in pain. He was going to lose consciousness. Jackson wiped the tears from his face. "Reuben, be with me. Okay, we are going out from here." Jackson said. Ruben barely hummed. He grabbed Reuben's shoulders carefully then pulled him up. He was so unconscious that he was unable to stand up on his feet. So, Jackson upkeeps him. He placed his hands over his shoulders then start walking back towards Edwina. Jackson saw her trying to get the arrow out from Marcus's chest but she was in pain. Her hands were shaking, she was sweating so badly. "Edwina!" He called her... "Jack, do something..." She cried. "I talked with Dad. They will be fear in some time but we have to take this arrow out from his chest." She said. "Let me help him. I will do it. I will take out the arrow. Come here. We have to stop the blood from Reuben wounds." Jackson has to be strong. If they have a slight chance to save him. He will not back away. Edwina went to him. They both made Reuben laid on the stage. "Edwina, try to stop his blood with some cloth. I am going to help Marcus." Jackson said. Edwina looks at his face. He nodded his head. "Trust me." He said. She then went to find something to stop the blood oozing from the Reuben wound. Jackson went back to Marcus. He saw the suit that he brought for him. Today when he left him... The smile on his face. He was so happy. He was so happy that at least he will be united with his mate. Jackson felt a ball of tears forming in her throat. He saw his hands were also shaking. Why does it hurt so much? Why did he feel like someone had stabbed him a thousand times? Marcus is the person whom he can never see weaken in any situation. Jackson was weak. But looking him her win this situation caused an immense ache in his heart. He was feeling Magnus whimpering. "Magnus, I am here. I am here to help you." He whispered. Jackson then closed his eyes, he gulped then start pulling the arrow out from his chest. He groaned. Jackson didn't wait. He pulled out the arrow in one go with his shaky hands. Marcus throws out blood from his mouth but he didn't wake up. He was still unconscious. Jackson took off his shirt then wiped the blood from his mouth. He saw the wound of the chest was healing from his chest. Suddenly he felt presence... Jackson growled. Edwina was sitting beside Reuben body. Her hands were pressed on his wound with a cloth trying to stop the blood. Edwina also felt it... "Dad. They are here." She said to Jackson. Jackson could down his wolf that was at the verge of coming out. "Dad, We are here." She shouted. Edwina's father came with his warriors but looking at the destruction. All of them were shocked and heartbroken. Jackson saw Alpha Damien coming towards Edwina. His face was pale looking at the condition of the pack. "OH, the moon goddess. May their souls rest in peace." He said with a very sad expression. He then comes towards Edwina. "What happened? Who attacked? Where is Marcus?" He has so many questions but they don't have the time to answer any questions... "Dad, we don't know. We have to get both of them out from here. Only they are left alive. We have to get out from here soon... The council will be here any minute..." Edwina said in a panic. "Okay, Edwina. We are here. Don't worry." Alpha Damien hugged his daughter... He then came towards Jackson. He patted his shoulder then look at Marcus. He sat on the ground then picked up the arrow examine it. "He is poisoned. Wolfsbane." Alpha Damien said. "I took out from his chest. He is healing." Jackson informed him. "Son, his wolf is alive. But we can not say anything about his human self. Come on. We have to get out from here now..." Alpha Damien stands up on his feet. He called his warriors. The boys came then picked up Reuben walking back towards their cars. Jackson and Alpha Damien picked up Marcus then start walking back towards the car along with Edwina. Edwina sat in the car with Marcus' head in her lap. She was still crying. "Edwina, you have to be strong for him." Alpha Damien said. She didn't say anything but she was just looking at his face. "Alpha, I have a request. I know I can not do anything about all the dead bodies here but I wanted to bury one dead body with all the respect. I want to bury him in your land if you permitted me." Jackson said trying to hold back his tears. Alpha Damien look the pain on the boy's face. He can understand the boy lost his everything... He nodded his head. "Who?" He asked. "My best friend. Jason." Jackson was unable to hold back his tears. He was crying. Alpha Damien hugged him... He cried like a child on his shoulder. Alpha Damien then latter his back. "Where is his dead body? Show me. My warriors will take him with us." He walks back in the pack with Jackosn. They bring Jason body in the car then start driving back towards Edwina's pack.
