His and His Only ** BOOK ONE**

Chapter 19; Him

His warm arms encaged me as we sat in a house that wasn't burned down to the ground. Others of the pack joined us inside this house and the other two around it.

I guess Jackson wanted someplace for the survivors to stay or he just wanted to turn these houses into souvenirs.

I snuggled my head into his broad shoulder.

Xidan acted composed while around the members of our pack but, with me he let his emotions slide past his mask.

"We'll get through this." I mumbled to him.

I could just see the rage within his eyes however he didn't say anything.

"Xidan..... We won't allow this to take us down." I tried to put hope into his eyes but, failed.

"Fine, fine ignore me but, I'm done fighting if you are." I huffed.

He tightened his arms around me with a sigh. "I'm fighting for you, the pack I'll rebuild later."

"Xidan these people....."

"Would want me to make sure you're safe." He cut me off.

I shook my head. "Jackson killed an old woman right in front of me because she..... She didn't care for me."

Xidan rubbed my back in comfort. "We all have people who don't honestly like us."

"What happened to Jackson anyway?" I questioned him.

Xidan pulled his hand up to rub his temples. "Jackson left and will come back so I only have an amount of time to pack up and leave."

"No!" I yelled.

He glared at me. "It was either that or I would lose you, Phoenix the truth is I'm weak. I don't have much energy, I can't fight for a pack that is already lost."

"Don't believe that!" I shouted. "These people are counting on you to avenge their lost family members, don't let them down."

"If only that old lady heard you now, she wouldn't of lost her throat." He huffed.

I laid my head back down on his chest. "Just please think about doing this for me......"

My eyes felt heavy as I fought them to enjoy this moment. Nevertheless I lost the fight with my eyes and sleep attacked me.

A man glared at me with obviously anger.

His deep chocolate hair hung in front of his auburn eyes. A sword was holstered to his side that he kept his hand hovered over.

But, I'm no threat....

"You could of stopped this war... This didn't have to happen to your pack." The man seethed. "It's simple just go with Chester...."

My body shook as he grinned. "After all I'm the king of all the......"

My eyes bolted open to see the wooden ceiling.

It was just a dream..... A dream about Chester?

Xidan still had his arms wrapped tight around me, his warmth made me want to slip back asleep however I'm too afraid to see that man again.

I quietly grasped his wrist and unwrapped both of his arms that are covered in white bandages.

"Don't... Leave." He said in a hoarse voice.

Guilt washed over me so I quickly put both his arms back around me and snuggled close to his chest.

I guess... I could to try to sleep again.
