All Alone

Chapter 57: Accepted

Chapter 57 - Liz's POV

I yawned as I stretched, trying my best to open my eyes. I began to sit up when I heard someone snoring. I looked down to see Ben asleep in a chair, leaning forward onto my bed with his head resting on his arms.

I smiled slightly at his peaceful face. Despite the fact that no one in the pack fully excepted this boy, I did even after all he's put me through. I still considered him my best friend. I knew I might regret this later on, but it was bound to happen either way.

"I, Alpha Elizabeth Fawna Williams, accept you, Benjamin Robertson as a member of the Black Moon Pack." I whispered lowly, feeling a part of my power latch onto his, connecting him to me along with the rest of the pack. "Welcome to the pack, Ben." I ran my hand lightly through his hair before getting up and going into the bathroom.

I walked out of the bathroom to meet the face of a shocked and confused Ben.

"Why?" He whispered, eyes wide.

Because I felt like it. I shrugged. You're welcome.

He frowned. "But I haven't told you why..." He gulped. "You might regret accepting me into your pack."

"I know. And I probably will regret my decision, but over time, I know it will all be worth it in the end." Suddenly, my earlier vision of him came to mind and I felt my face lose its color. I realized then that I had just lied to his face. It would not all be alright. He would get hurt and it would be my fault. He could die and it would be my fault. I could never live that down. I couldn't bare with having his blood on my hands.

"Are you alright? You look a little pale."

"What? Oh yeah. I'm good." I tried to smile but couldn't. "How about that explanation, yeah?" I sat down on my bed and crossed my legs, waiting patiently.

He took a deep breath. "Okay, so-"

"Liz!" Someone called, bursting into my room.

"Oh, come on!" I yelled in frustration. I was sick and tired of people interrupting us just as I was finally about to hear to truth. I pointed at Ben. "This conversation is not over!" I growled.

He gulped and nodded, but looked slightly relieved.

"Liz." Nick said again, rather impatiently.

"What?" I snapped back, rubbing my temples as I felt a headache coming.

"Someone crossed on to our borders."

This caught my attention. "Who's on patrol?"

"Michael, Brandon, Sarah and Ashley."

I inhaled sharply. Ashley I worried about, not so much the other three. Demos, get into the sky. Don't attack, I just want to know what we are up against.

Already on it, Elizabeth. I heard his wings flapping as he took off.

I want Mikayla and Jocelyn to stay in the house. Everyone else, with me. I commanded, marching outside and following the sound of Demos's massive wings. Nick flanked my right while Ben flanked my left, since Michael wasn't here at the moment. I could tell Nick wasn't happy with Ben being so close to me.

We need to talk later. He stated calmly.

Yes, we do. I replied cooly. I knew which direction that conversation was headed and I didn't like it, but I knew it was bound to happen sooner or later.

In a small clearing on the southern side and our borders, Michael, Brandon, Sarah and Ashley all stood around two wolves, both different shades of grey. Female and Male. I honestly didn't see them as a threat until the male took a step towards Ashley, a challenging glint in his eye.

Not even a second later, I stood protectively in front of the slightly cowering red she-wolf, snarling furiously at the male.

Back off! I growled menacingly.

He took a step back. I took one forward.

Wait! Drew suddenly yelled, causing me to halt, although my eyes never left the wolf's. The twins shifted and took several steps toward the rogues.

What are you doing! Get back! I panicked, causing Demos to swoop down and land next to me and hissed venomously, almost giving Ashley a heart attack.

What is it? He questioned, wrapping his tail around me and pulling me closer to him. I glance at Nick, but he wouldn't even look at me. I turned back to my pack members. Catching sight of the twins, the two rogues slowly shifted back.

All four of them gasped.

"Mom? Dad?"

I'm really sad though, I'm gonna miss this series after this done, us know? It will feel like I'm losing a part of me. There will be no more Liz, Nick, Michael, Ben, or Demos. No more twins, Sarah, Ashley, Brandon or sweet little Jocelyn. Isn't that a depressing thought? I'm gonna cry!
