Chapter Fourty Nine.

I began the short walk to the cells as Brian followed behind me silently. I couldn't blame him. They were in a terrible predicament that has now became my own due to the fact that Mercy was apart of my Coven now.

"Sire, they have reached the helicopter and are in route." A guard that jogged up to me said as I stepped outside the Coven's main house.
"Thank you."

He bowed and walked off leaving Brian and I to continue walking.

"This is good. The sooner she gets here the better." He declared.
"Not necessarily."
"How do you figure? If he sees that she is alive it could snap him out of it." He stated with so much hope I almost believed it as well.

I stopped walking and turned to him.

"She may be alive, but not the way he remembers her. He felt her death during her transition. To him it could be just another trick his dark side is trying to play on it to stay in the front. We have to stay cautious because if we don't, he could hurt anyone including Mercy."
"He would never-" He began, but I cut him off before he could finish his ridiculous sentence.
"But he could and he will. Yes, you know him better than I do, but I know what the darkness will do and how easily you can believe its shadows. You don't."

He worried about my words as I continued to walk.

"James is still with him, correct?"
"Yeah, he's been with him since we moved him down there. He's trying to make his dark side submit, but Seb himself is very stubborn so I can only imagine how much of an asshole his little Demon is." He joked.

I chuckled with him, but in reality I didn't care what happened to this Gamma. All I care about is her. The shame I hold for that isn't very slim, but at least I can admit it instead of trying to lie to myself.

It's a very difficult situation truthfully because I really do want to be selfish with her, but how could I when the man she loves is the man that was written in the stars for her. Their souls have been destined since their first breathes. Even I can respect the Mate bond. Hell, I used to have one.

But at the same time.. if it comes down to making a hard decision to kill him because he doesn't snap out of it. I will do it to keep her and my Coven safe from his deadly claws.

I didn't want him here in the first place, but they just won't fucking leave. I've tried and tried to get them to by continuously asking how the process of their rebuilding is, but every time I bring it up James shrugs it off. Maybe it's a reminder that they don't have as many hands or people as they used to, I don't know, but it's not my problem.

It's his Pack's problem. Not my Covens. I've done my neighborly duties by keeping his people safe during their Pack's slaughter. I shouldn't have to keep putting them up while they rebuild. If I remember right James said it himself that the main Pack house was only damaged. Why not go to the other Pack house for now?

They're probably just taking this time to remodel. Either way, I don't care. I want them gone soon. I don't like the way his people stare at my Vamps and act like they're going to drain them if they turn their backs to them too long. It's rude to act like that towards a Coven that literally helped saved then from certain death.

"Finn?" Brian called to me bringing my attention to him.
"Yes, Brian?"
"Why are you not answering me?" He wondered.

I looked at the Beta who was coming off as a needy woman.
