Los Angeles, 1873

Joseph Young cradled the still, bloody body of his mate. His mate, who he kept hidden, out of shame. Out of shame, because he knew the looks he'd receive once everyone knew that Joseph Young and William Baker were lovers. The comments, and sneers they'd receive when the beta and alpha announced their love. And how their wives would react.. and their children? What would happen to them?

Joseph loved William. But it obviously wasn't enough. How does Joseph know this? William killed himself. He took his revolver, and shot himself him the head. Joseph heard the shot, and ran down into the basement to find his mate, dead on the floor, revolver still in his hand. 

Joseph knew they were coming. The footsteps told him enough. And so did the snarling figures of the men at the doorway. The faces that turn to shock, and sadness. And anger. 

"Why did you kill him?" The unidentifiable man yelled at Joseph.

Joseph merely looked up, and pulled the trigger of the gun. His dead body slumped over that of his enemy's, at least, that's what everyone figured.

Author's Note: This was.. interesting to write. But you must know, I do not support the actions of these two characters, suicide is not the answer. If you ever feel the need to end your life, talk to me and I will do my best to help.

Thanks for reading, I'm super excited to write this! Eva
