"How is she?" Marcus ask while I pace back and forth across my porch. It's either pace or shift. 

"I don't know. She's been in the shower for the last hour. I think she's in shock but her wolf is to close to the surface refusing to let a single soul near her."  

It's been 6 hours since we found my daughter. The fear I felt when she was taken was nothing compared to the total and utter heartbreaking fear as when I seen her tears. 

That was enough to tell me that we'll have a long road to get her back. If we even can.  I could smell that she has been taken and with the way she destroyed that male is something that can never be unseen.

" She tore him apart Devin. In all my years I've never seen anything like it." 

"I know."  What else can I say. For her beast to release such malice. The moon only knows what the hell she has went through.

"Dad."

Mikel looks as destroyed as his sister. She refused to acknowledge his presence when I lifted her from the ground. Her body was there but her mind is shut down. Now I have no words to try and comfort my own grief stricken son.

Thankfully my mom comes out to save me the hardship of even trying.

"She is in  her room, Kane had to lift her out of the shower. It was ice cold. I've bandaged her wounds as best as I could. There is still a few that needs to be addressed but her wolf wasn't comfortable letting anyone near them." Mom start to cry " She hasn't spoken it's like life has left her completely."

Trying and failing to chock down my own sob. Has my father coming out and wrapping his arms around me as if I'm a pup again.

The last time my father had to do this was the night I was told Shelly and Kiki were dead.

Over these last few months I have been cursing Shelly's name for what she did seventeen years ago, but now I can understand and even respect her for what she did. She kept our daughter  safe for all these years then she comes here and faces life and death every other fucking week. 

"She's strong boy. She'll come out of this. For now we just need to be around for when she needs us, and she will need us. Everyone and everything has a breaking point." There's a hard look in my father's eyes. Eyes that have seen so much, eyes that are begging me to believe his words. His truths.

No words need to be spoken for my father to know that I trust his words. The man has never lead me astray before nor will they now.

Rustling comes from the side of the house. 

Fred and Jay Cross...

" Beta how is she my friend?" 

" She's .. Healing Fred." 

" Tell her that when she's ready that our falls are there and waiting for her. Dad already has offered her a open invitation before so please just remind her. Or I'll bring water from it every day if that works better for her.. you."

Jay Cross really stepped up today. Yes after his royal fuck up lead to Kiki's  capture, but the boy is seriously shaken for what happen to her. 

Still hate the little shit, just a little bit less then the day before.

Three day's three fucking days and she still hasn't left her room. Plates of food are brought to her three times a day and each plates leaves the way they came. Uneaten.. Untouched. 

Standing at the bottom of the stairs and I can hear Mikel talking to her while standing in her doorway. Her beast let's no male step inside only the females.  Lexi and my mother.  

"Kiki, I'm so so fucking sorry. I swear I'll never block you again. Please talk to me. Tell me what you need. Please. Your my sister. I'm here for you even if you want to  yell at me, or fight me for Christ  sake just don't keep shutting me out!"

My breath catches as I hear the soft steps of my daughter. Both  Mikel and I seem to be holding our breaths.

Until the soft click of a door closing. I rush up the steps just in time to see Mikel fall to his knees sobbing for the loss of his twin.

"Mikel." I start but he just holds up his hand.

"Don't. I deserve this. She called for me so many times but I refused her, and for what? Huh? a girl that'll never be my happy ever after. I was so mad at Kiki for pointing  that out, pointing the truth out, that when she needed me the most... I picked Lisa. If I would have answered her maybe all this. What happened. What he did to her." Mikel can't even finish. He just get's up pushes past me down the steps and out the door.

I  can't help but feel that I'm losing both my children in this cluster fuck.

The only noise you hear in this entire house is the soft cries from Kierra's room.  This must be the most she has cried in her whole life. 

"Son." Dad calls out from the screen door. He's been here several times a day each day. He's just as lost as the rest of us.

"Still the same. Though she did get up and close her door." Dad perks up " In  Mikel's  face."  His face falls.

"Well then we give her until tomorrow then we send in the big guns."

"And what is the big guns?"

" Alex of course! You've seen the boy. He'll brake through!"

Gods help me but I crack a smile. Dad just might be on to something.
