Avery's POV

3 months later at the funeral

I stood there with Ezran in my arms, Jenna on my left and Levi on my right as they buried Alexia's body in the grave site we made years ago for the fallen wolves of this pack. Everyone was devastated crying and hugging one another but I didn't...I couldn't it was like I had no more tears to Cry it was all anger that was left. Once it was over everyone started to go home offering they're condolences as they did so Just then Riley and Isabella came up to me.

"I'm so sorry" Isabella said hugging me I hugged her back and Riley joined they both then pulled away. "I should've been there" Riley said starting to blame herself "don't do that it wasn't your fault" I said "Mom and dad are really sorry that they can't be here but they said if you need they'll take the kids off your hands for a week" said Isabella I just nodded "tell them I need to take them up on that" I said she nodded and pulled out her phone walking away. "I should go the spot where she....where she um died hasn't been cleaned I need to go home and clean it" I said about to walk away with the kids but she stopped me.

"Avery wait why don't I come do it" she said I shook my head no

"Come on you shouldn't be alone right now" she said I sighed knowing she wasn't going to let up. "Ok" I said she nodded and we made our way to the car. We got to the Main pack house and I immediately packed Levi, Ezran and Jennas bags. "Mom  I want to stay here with you" Levi said I shook my head. "It's not safe right now I don't know if they'll come back" I said "but it's been a week" he said I sighed and cupped his face with both my hands. "Please Levi just go with your grandparents for this one week and I promise I'll be by to get you when it's up" I said he nodded and looked down I kissed his forehead, "now be a dear and take these bags to the living room" I said "okay.." he said I ruffled his hair before making my way to Jennas room. I got to her room and knocked on the door. "Go Away" she shouted I sighed it's been like this for a week now whenever she gets the chance she locks herself in her room.

"Sweetie please just open the door" I said pleading with her

"Leave me alone" she said I let out a breath before sitting down and leaning up against a wall. Just then Riley walked over and I sighed "I can't do this" I said breaking down she put an hand on my shoulder.

"let me I've got her you go get Ezran" she said I wiped my face and stood up "thank you" I said "don't mention it" she said I then walked away making my way to Ez's nursery where he was sitting on a mat playing with his toy cars. I walked over and picked him up come on buddy " my car" he said referring to the toy he was leaving behind I sighed and grabbed the car giving it to him.

"All good now?" I asked. He nodded his head yeah and smiled I kissed his cheek and we walked out of the room.

A few minutes later my mom and dad pulled up and it was time for the kids to go I took them to the car and once they were all settled in my mom and dad pulled me to the side to talk to me. "How are you doing sweetie" my mom asked "I'm heartbroken it feels like someone just reached into my chest and pulled out my heart. I was right there I should've done something I should've stayed in the house instead of going to go check outside because of some stupid noise" I said my mom hugged me. "Oh sweetheart it wasn't your fault" she said "your mothers right you thought you were protecting them". He said I shook my head "I should've known better I'm an alpha it's my duty to know better" I said he sighed "look I know there's nothing we can say to stop you from blaming yourself so I'll just say this instead....you did everything right" he said I sighed and he patted my shoulder "we should get going" he said my mom kissed me on the cheek "take care of yourself" she said I nodded and they both got in the car and drove away.

After everyone was gone and it was just me so I walked through my cold and empty house. It was like Everywhere I looked a memory appeared, I looked towards the kitchen and that time me and her made breakfast together appeared or towards the couch and all I could see was her smiling while we watched movies together. I walked to the Ezrans nursery the one that was once's Jennas and all I seen was me and her standing over Jennas crib watching her in awe as she slept I sighed and shut the door before turning around and seeing the only room in the house I hadn't been in since she died.

Our bedroom. I took several deep breaths before placing my hand on the knob and opening it. the bed was still messy from the last time we slept in it. I sighed and sat down on the edge of the bed looking around the room.

I found myself sniffing the pillow that still smelt like her and instantly starting to cry. After 3 long hours of crying my eyes out I decided to pack my bags I couldn't stay here in this house any longer I grabbed my things and put them in the trunk of my jeep before getting in my car and pulling off.
