Alone H.S.

Chapter 51: The Word War

Lily -

I hate this. The guilt. I blame myself for loosing the baby, but I also blame myself for keeping Harry at a distance. I just don't want him to feel like he has to take care of me, when I'm not even capable of giving him what he deserves.

He wanted a daughter. But I couldn't give him a daughter. Not one that lives longer than five minutes, anyway.

So I bury my face in the pillow for another day, hating myself and wishing I could turn back time to when my biggest problem was what color lace underwear to buy.

Before I hated my existence, before Harry looked at me with sadness in his eyes, back to when I saw my mate and my wolf would perk up and I would throw myself onto him in pure happiness.

And here I am, the pack's Luna. And I can't do anything right.

The tears stream down my face, wetting the pillow.

"Louis!!" The scream from downstairs causes me to sit up and my wolf to worry.

"Louis!" Harry screams again, and the front door slams.

Something is wrong.

My instincts force me to get out of bed and hurry down the stairs towards the voice of my mate. I head to the bottom of the stairs and Eleanor is already standing there, a hand over her mouth as she stares towards the direction of the front door.

Already so many thoughts are racing through my mind and I'm nearly panicking.

When I reach Eleanor's side, I look towards the door and I freeze.

Harry's leaning against the wall, blood all over his shirt, and I can sense his anger and frustration. But I can also sense that he's not hurt, so at least it's not his blood.

"What's happened?!" Louis asks, carefully moving closer to my mate, who looks ready to explode at any moment.

"I killed him! I f-cking killed him!" Harry practically screams, turning around and punching the wall.

"Killed who?!" Louis has to shout to be heard over Harry's angry shouting and punching the wall.

"Harry, please calm down." I mind-link, not sure he will even hear me. But when he pauses his actions and looks at me with...relief? I know that he heard me.

Louis and Eleanor look between the two of us before Harry walks over to me, everything about him now much calmer. He stands in front of me, and reaches out to brush a strand of my hair behind my ear.

"I didn't mean to." Is all he says as I stare up at him, trying to figure out what ever happened to him.

"I know you didn't." I don't fully understand what has happened or what is going on, but I know he didn't mean to do whatever he's done. He doesn't look surprised by my words, or anything really. He just looks down at me blankly before he takes a deep breath and then his eyes start to glisten.

"It's okay." I whisper to him before wrapping my arms around his waist, seeing as that's what I can reach without reaching up. I don't care that I'm getting blood all over my clothes, right now my mate needs me.

And you thought he didn't want us. See this? He needs us.

"I'm sorry." He says quietly.

Im not sure what he's apologizing for. He's done nothing wrong in my eyes. He didn't mean to kill whoever's blood this is, he's forgiven. Why does he need to apologize now?

"Will you please tell me what has happened?" Louis asks from behind Harry and my wolf whines when Harry pulls away. But he keeps an arm wrapped around me, which satisfies my needy inner wolf.

"Malik. He's declared war." I hear my stomach turn at the thought of a war.

"What?! He can't have. That's...our pack and the neighboring packs have lived peacefully together for...what the hell?" Louis runs his hands through his hair in an almost panicked motion.

"This...well, what do we do?" Louis asks, looking to Harry.

Harry stands by my side, arm around my waist, blood covering his shirt, and he takes a deep breath before finally speaking.

"We fight. We build our army and we defend ourselves and our land." He turns to look down at me before he finishes in a softer tone, while staring into my eyes.

"We do whatever it takes to keep our loved ones safe."

Sorry that it's a little short, but...oh well.

Hi, everyone! Hope you enjoyed this chapter. If you did, please be sure to comment and let me know!

Also, once this story will be completed I will start another story that is in the sort of magical/fantasy world type story. Because my other stories are pretty much normal people stories and I really like these with characters that aren't real-life creatures.

But what I was getting at was: do you think I should write a vampire type story or another werewolf one??? Please comment which you think I should do next.

Now this story isn't over and it won't be for a while, but I want to already be getting the ideas for the next story to write for you guys, so please let me know by commenting what you all want to read next!

Thank you all so much for everything! I'll be updating again soon! Love you all!!! 😘
