Rebecca's body went limp, her muscles relaxed and her eyes closed forever. Her skin tightened and turned ashen in color, and her body temperature dropped so cold in Xander's arms. The king had fallen at the cost of a queen.

Xander was shaking and crying over the loss of his mate - the powerful king who never shed a tear in his life sobbed over his mate's lifeless body.

"Shhhh. It's ok Rebecca, it's ok. Breathe. It's going to be ok. Just breathe. Please come back... just breathe. It's not supposed to end like this... I love you. Please, come back. " Xander rested his forehead against hers.

His eyes were fixed on Rebecca - he couldn't get over the fact that he just walked her down the aisle bad now she lay dead before his very eyes. He fell to his knees and the entire pack began to howl.

Liam hung his head in sorrow and pain. A single tear escaped his downturned eyes.

Xander carried his mate bridal style back to the palace. He had stopped crying and his sorrow was replaced with pain and anger.

It wasn't fair! they had just won the war but the reason they fought had died along with the fight. The soldiers marched behind Xander slowly, each covered in blood and battle wounds. The prisoners of war walked in silver shackles obediently... to some rogues, although they had lost they felt that they had the greatest victory today.
The icy chill of the wind blew against Xander in the pale moonlight. The night was dark and still... the palace doors opened and he laid his queen on the steps.

Soon the wolves from the panic room entered the foyer, the wolves laid their eyes on the queen and cried, some gasped and covered their mouths.

"No! No! This is not happening. She - she can't be -" Storm cried out in disbelief, tears stained her face and she brought her hand to her mouth to silence the muffled cries of pain.

Her death tool it's toll on Xander the worst... he hadn't come out of his room for two days.He had blamed himself for her death and when people walked passed the room they would hear loud noises of furniture being tossed around the room. Omegas offering food, knocked on the door only to be scared away by loud growls of anger.

The queen's body was placed in a glass coffin inside the palace foyer for all her subjects to come and pay their respects. Storm had shriveled up due to her lack of appetite. No one had seen or heard from the king and the beta family in two days... they had locked themselves away in morning and the people began to worry. If the king did not show his face soon, he's enemies would see it as a sign of weakness and attack for the throne.
