This was a bad idea.

I'm sleepy, and this is a bad idea.

Mom and Ethan were currently trying to start a bonfire and my brothers were "directing" I sat up on my elbows and watched the water on the beach, the sun on the horizon. "How you feel?" I noticed my father wrapping an arm around Vann and Levi. Victoria laughing along with Ci-L. Adrianna running around. Every one was coming together for me. And I could have sworn this was the only moment of peace I have had since I came home.

But it won't last long. 

Caleb was on the phone with Jace, having an emergency evacuation for his pack. The Elders were coming.

This was a bad idea.

Ethan deserved better.

And this was a bad idea.

Paris is cutting his honeymoon short to make sure he is there to see me. Heather is angry about it, screaming at him while still being on the phone. Gabriella and Kaden were safe, but the others were still leaving. This was my problem and I couldn't solve it. The wind blew and I coughed roughly, wiping the blood before others were able to notice. Caleb glanced over at me as he came back from the "bathroom" sitting beside me he wrapped his arms around his legs. "How you feel?"

This was a bad idea.

I coughed a little more, taking deep breaths as I slowly laid back down onto the sand.

This was a bad idea.

I ignored the silence of the group and stared up at the falling sky. They were coming. They were on their way to finish the job Zaria couldn't. They were on their way to put me at peace. They were here for me, and would kill anyone in their way. I blinked. Grabbing the sand and breathing deeply. I couldn't answer something I don't know. My body was shutting down and I didn't tell the others. My eyes burned and I closed them tightly. "Caleb, can you take me to the fair?" It was stupid to think that he would take me. He barely had the strength to go himself. Yet as he nodded and helped me up, I felt as though he was feeling guilty for me.

My body screamed at me for moving and I ignored that as well. I pulled him away from the group for a reason. I began to tell him how I was drifting, my body is asking for rest, and the Elders can't use a dead body now can they? I wanted to be at the fair, where we first exchanged a feeling I never knew. Where we kissed. Where I met his...I saw them, in the corner of my eye. I needed to end this. This was becoming too much for me, for the others.

I wanted him to be here when I died today, because he will take care of my corpse. It was all I could think about. He has a mate, so he won't feel a thing when my body shuts down and I leave this earth. He was silent, and I was thankful. I told him what I wanted. There was a box under the bed of the room I slept in when I was first thrown in his house. There was a will in there that I kept hidden, I slid it in when we were on our way here, you would be amazed what a pee break can do. He grabbed my arms and dragged me towards him.

This was a bad idea.

He was hugging me, resenting hugs I squeezed my eyes shut and sobbed silently, hugging him back. "I love you Mel." He whispered to me, and I hated it. They stepped out of the shadows and Caleb held me close to him.  They were in black cloaks, watching with hidden eyes. I froze when I saw Marcus. His smile so bright it took me back to when we first met. The world spun for a second and I felt the blood sliding out of my nose. Wiping it I stood tall even when my legs shook beneath me. "I'm useless," I started. "There is nothing you can do with a corpse." Marcus smirked and took a step forward to which Caleb pulled me closer to him. "Yet we could do a lot with your blood." I froze. "Well then I guess you should know that it's been tainted with something you couldn't handle." The world shook and I leaned into Caleb. "I'm dying, yes. So when my body slumps to the ground it will not stay there, you will not use me as your payback. I am not your debt." I coughed and blood splattered to the leaves.

This was a bad idea.

Marcus took a step forward and at that moment Caleb shifted. Marcus smiled, "Come on son, why can't you be like your old man for once. She's getting in the way of your relationship with your mate, she is a problem. And this problem can be solved if you just let us take her." Caleb growled and my body started to shake, gripping his fur I looked over my shoulder. Maybe if I...

"Why must you remind me of your mother? She would do the same thing. Protect the wrong and hurt the right. Let me tell you a little secret about your mother. I made a deal with those rouges the day they came, your mother for my pack." Caleb stiffened and I started to sway. My vision grew fuzzy along the edges. "I would have let them kill you too if Aiden would have taken the title as Alpha for my pack."

At that moment, the Elders charged and I fell to the floor. Before I blacked I saw Caleb's wolf move towards me.

When I opened them once more I felt weight me, glancing up I met Caleb's fur, matted down by blood. I hoped it wasn't his as I reached out. My hands started to glow but I blacked out before I could...

I don't like emojis...I really don't. So I have to say your comments are very helpful and funny, I love reading them.

And yes, there will be an epilogue.

And no, there will be no spin-off.
