PROLOGUE

Parker's P.O.V

It's cold.

The blood leaking from my body is making me cold.

I'm breathing heavy, I feel heavy. I'm tired, exhausted. I want to stop everything and just rest. I want to close my eyes just for a brief moment. Maybe then the weight of her betrayal won't hurt me as much.

Then I hear her roar with anger and power.

I don't bother looking up. The sight of her disgusts and amazes me at the same time.

Ha. How could I not have seen the signs?

She comes out of nowhere and asks for shelter. I gave it to her. She wanted to be part of a family. I brought her into mine. She wanted to find out as much as she could about our pack. Our trade routes, our pack formations, our history. I let her.

When she started disappearing for days and coming back late at night. I didn't question her. My greatest mistake.

'Alpha! Alpha are you okay?' I hear the Beta ask me through mind link. I laugh. I fucken laughed. Am I okay? I don't know. I don't believe I'll ever be okay again after this.

The smell of smoke is making me dizzy. I feel her approaching me.

I then look up. If I die, I might as well look at her as she kills me.

Her bright fiery wolf stares down at me. She's like the sun, hot and merciless. I see no emotion in her eyes. I then realize she never loved me. She didn't fall out of love, no she just didn't love me. The realization makes my insides turn. How could I have ever loved such a monster?

The trees around us are on fire. I can't believe all the wreckage she's made. Her flames making their way towards the pack house. I hear the screams of my people from a far. Hearing them scream is rubbing salt to the wound. I laugh. Tears running down my face. Damn her. Damn her to hell. I feel my back ache from the stab wound she gave me before she turned into...that.

I look up above her to the full moon. Shining bright above us. Damn the moon goddess. Damn her as well. I close my eyes. Damn this, damn her. I don't care if I die anyway.

I just wish.

I just wish I didn't have to die with so much heartache and regret.
