"So." Cohen hesitated.

"So?" Leo questioned.

"Why did you do it?" Cohen asked anger laced in his voice.

The three of us walk our way down the hall to my bedroom.

"I thought I was helping. Honestly. I just wanted to know further of what happened to our parents. You know? I just wanted to help them. Save them. I don't know. When Gerard came to me and said there was a way to bring them back I believed him. I wanted to believe him." Leo paused. "I never wanted to hurt you. Either of you. I was just trying to bring our parents back." He pleaded.

"I don't blame you, Leo. I could never hold that against you. You wanted to see your parents. I can't say I forgive you just yet, just know I'd never hold it against you." I reassured.

Cohen stands next to me giving me a look. He nods in agreement. We have been through far too much to fall apart now.

Besides, far worse is starting to happen.

Cohen's Pov

Isaac, Peter, Derek, and I start to walk up to Derek's loft. Isaac told me to come just in case Peter tried something.

"You haven't told them everything yet, have you?" Peter asks rather annoyed. Isaac and I both turn around to look at them.

"What do you mean?" Derek asks confused.

"Why do you think Derek was in such a hurry to build his pack? So eager to strengthen his power and his number? When there's a new Alpha, people take notice." Peter explained.

"People like who?" I asked.

"What is this? What does this mean?" Isaac asks as we turn our attention to the door.

"It's their symbol and it means their coming." Derek noted.

"Who?" I asked once again.

"Alphas." Derek cuts short.

"More than one?" Isaac asks.

"A pack of them."

"An alpha pack. And they're not coming. They're already here." Peter adds.

"That's the least of our worries." I whispered under my breath.
