Lincoln's POV

I cared. Of course I did. I couldn't blame her though, I had slaughtered her pack mercilessly. If only I had known I would have spared her parents, at least then I would have some sort of chance for redemption.

I kissed her forehead softly, basking in her distinct​ smell of lavender, and enjoying the softness of her skin against my lips. I backed away. I didn't know what to do next. I went over to the small self serving bar in our room, and poured myself a shot of whiskey. The burning liquor soothed me. I took two more.
I went over to Lilly and picked her up gently and laid her on the bed before getting in myself I put the comforter over us both, and she moved closer to me, her hands resting lazily on my naked chest.

"You killed my parents." She stated, the look in her eyes, was one of defeat, and betrayal. As if she had trusted me, her mate, before even knowing me to not betray her. If i had only known...

"The price of victory is blood, my dear, never forget that." I said. I told her exactly what my mother had told me.

" Kill him Lincoln. Before he kills us both!" I could hear my mother scream, I had done what I had to.

I held her close to me, I will never let her go. Ever. I need her, she calms the darkness inside me. Just one look at her beautiful face, and my past just simply melts away.

"No...please.." She mumbled in her sleep, her eyebrows furrowed together.

I rubbed small circles on her back and she buried her face in my chest, she felt good in my arms, and at that moment i remembered she was naked under me T-shirt.

I felt myself harden.

I closed my eyes tightly, and emptied my mind of all sexual thoughts, and steadied my breathing. Before I knew it I was engulfed by slumber. .

...................................................

I awoke due to the sensation of her fingers carresing my cheek, and grazing gently at my chin. I groaned causing her to freeze against me.

"That feels nice" I say.

I felt her try to move away from me but i buried my face into the crook of her neck, and held her tighter.

"Lincoln." She said flatly.

"Lily." I said returning her flat tone, with my own. I sighed, and released her. I knew i would have to work long, and hard for forgiveness.
I doubt there is a chance for me at all.

She should understand though. We were at war, if i had not attacked it would've been her father. What was I supposed to do. I had to act, I would not sit back, and wait to be destroyed.
I had information passed onto me that they had allied themselves with Ice Claw to take over my territory, and my pack.

I got out of bed and headed into the bathroom for a morning shower. I took my clothes off, got in. Thinking of my next moves to make.

I have the Golden Paw territory, it belonged to me now, but what would i do with it. I wouldn't want to hurt lily anymore than i had already.

After washing my self, and hair, I got out of the shower and wrapped my white towel around my waist.

I looked into the mirror.

Still i saw him.

That boy barley ready to take over the pack mentally, scared of the unknown future that lay ahead of him. No father to help him take over his new responsibilities. In many ways i was still this boy, I was still scared of the unknown.

Scared that my mate would never love me after what I've done.

I sighed and stepped out of the bathroom, Lillian had fallen asleep again.

I walked over to her where she lay, and gently kissed her on her pink pouting lips.

I loved her already.

It was strange.

I always thought that it wouldn't be so strong; the mate bond is a deadly force to be reckoned with.

To fight it would only mean pain, and heartache for yourself, that's why no one with any sense at all bothered fighting it.

There was no way out of the mate bond. There was no rejecting or anything like that, to refuse your mate was to refuse your self of love, and true hapiness...that is not what I want for my Lily.

I cleared my mind of the negative thoughts and walked into our closet and put on a pair of black dress pants, and a royal blue dress shirt that made my light grey eyes even lighter in contrast to its dark coloring. I got a hair elastic from my dresser draw, and pulled my shoulder length hair into a bun that hung loose at the back of my head.

My mom had loved my hair that's why i never cut it off completely, i did this small deed in honour of her.

I made my way over to the door, I had some work to do, I would love to stay in bed with Lily all day but an alphas work never stops.

I took one last glance at her before leaving our room swiftly, and headed down the hall.

I walked down the all to familiar hall and down the stairs. On my way down to my office I saw a maid dusting the pictures, vases, and the other surfaces.

I read her name tag. I had many staff here so it was important for them to have name tags.

"Gloria come here i have a task for you." Gloria was a middle aged Caucasian woman with blond hair and brown eyes.

"Yes Alpha" she replied respectfully bowing.

"Miss Paw upstairs will need some breakfast when she wakes up. Have the kitchen make her something nice to eat, something she will love. If she doesn't enjoy it, it will be on your head. Understood." I said sternly, the little woman nodded frantically before me. I dismissed her with the wave of my hand and went to my office to start some work.

I walked into my office and sat down behind my desk. Time to get to work.
