Chapter Twenty Two: ~Lina

"W...Who are you?"

His face drops and his breathing became uneven. I couldn't actually tell if he wanted to cry or punch someone right now. He ground his teeth and I noticed tears in his eyes. Then he got up and punched the wall, leaving an dent in it.

"Dammit! Why is it every fucking time something goes right in my fucking life it goes wrong again!" He shouts punching the wall some more.

"Calm down Alpha." says a woman's voice but I don't look. I keep looking at him.

"I can't! The woman I love has no fucking memory of me." he growls at her.

"Killian." I say weakly. He turns his brows furrowed in confusion. I pull myself to sit up wincing as I do. I feel like I've been hit by a truck. I genuinely do not have any memories of what happened before Laura did something to me but I knew the outcome wasn't good. There was something about the way they all looked in this room. To be fair I probably just made it worse.

I hold my arms out to Killian and I see Isabella leave. I pout when he doesn't come over.

"Killian." I say rather quietly. "I'm sorry....I....do you really love me?" At this he walks over quickly, sitting on the bed and pulling me onto his lap.

"Of course I do," he says burying his head into the crook of my neck. "I love you Lina...my little witch."

"So you're not mad?"

"I should be, pretending to have amnesia is not a funny move...but there is too much to tell you and talk about for that to happen." I can hear the pain laced in his words and the fear of what he will be telling me.

"Where is everyone?" I ask and I see him hesitate. "Killian...what happened to the pack?"

"I...it isn't good new Lina...you...the other you..." he trails off his voice faltering and I can see he's trying to find the right words. I don't need the words to ever actually be said though...I know the truth....I can see it through the way he's struggling to speak and talk to me.

"I killed them didn't I?" I ask trying to stay calm.

"I'm sorry Lina..." he says, as he says this his arms tighten around me and I bury my head into his chest. I want to cry and mourn for the pack but right now I feel too drained to do that. I want to sleep for a long time and forget about everything.

"What are we going to do?" I ask.

"Well...the remainder of us came up with a plan. I don't want to try and reform a pack. That would be too difficult considering there are so few of us. So were planning on becoming professors at the Alpha Academy. I know it's different to everything we've ever done but we need the change. All of us...we need to get away from all this."

"Okay." I say. "Okay..." I feel him shift as he lies down and pulls me with him. I rest my head on his chest and cuddle up. "I'm sorry...."

"Don't be" he begins to say.

"I am though, I'm this horrible person...all I do is kill and harm and I've done nothing but cause you trouble."

"Lina...I'm the same as you....a half breed. My affinity is the light....with me in your life we balance each other. Like ying and yang. I will forever be with you."

"Better because I don't want to let you go ever." I mumble.

_____________________

A few months have passed and were currently settling into the Alpha Academy. Once I was able to recover and was not drained I mourned for the pack. I cried the most for Tate. The fact that what I did to him was beyond anything I could cope. Tate had been like a brother to me and I hated that I had been the one to kill him. After I was settled Killian and I mated.

I was currently unpacking and reflecting on my life. A lot had happened and a lot was not good. Only these pat few months had been fine. I was struggling to cope now and then, plagued my nightmares of what possibly happened. Not even Killian seemed able to chase them away. Isabella had found her mate here at the academy. Another teacher, she was lovely too. Graham was content with his mate too.

For once things seemed as if they might be okay.
