"They're here," Izzy announced.
I walked over to the edge to see what he was talking about, and my eyes immediately found him. He was standing at the door, no doubt scanning the area for any threats. Thanks to my glasses, I could see the mark on his neck - and if he was going to make it, I would have to shoot the mark directly at the centre.
Either that or I kill my husband.
I watched my cousin approach him. She was still limping - no doubt furious about that bit - and I could only smile, knowing that my best friend did that to her; my civilian best friend who surprised the hell out of everyone.
"Are you guys sure about this?" Storm asked.
"There's no one I trust more than Elle to make the shot right now. We need to get my brother back," Rose confirmed.
"But this is extreme. If she misses the shot, he dies. There's no way we can save him or bring him back from a shot like that," Blayze argued.
"You forget that this is the only way. We tried to bring him in and he put three of us in comas. Ellie is the only one who can fight him, and we all know what happened the last time they fought," Grayson reminded.
Rose looked amused. "Elle, I thought you said these two could handle this."
"They can. Their concern is genuine though," I defended.
"Why? Are you having second thoughts?" Thales questioned.
"Never, but that doesn't mean Blayze is wrong. If I miss, Xander dies," I pointed out.
"You love him too much to let that happen, so don't miss," Oliver said, winking.
I nodded, laughing a little. "Is the team in place?"
"Everyone's ready when you are," Mason confirmed.
This was it. It was time to take back our lives - starting with my husband's.
"The fuck you are leaving me." He snapped and growled at his mate.
She was calm as she was ever be regardless of his snapping. She sighed and turned around to leave without saying something to him because it was worthless. There was no point in talking and especially to him.
He grabbed her arm before she put one step. "Where do you think you are going Ara?" He growled so loudly as everyone shuddered watching their interaction.
She quickly remove his hand as anger rolling off of her in waves. "Don't. Touch. Me. So you think I will live here and watch you mate and breed that female." She snapped at him.
"She meant nothing Ara." He said after a minute.
She laughed, literally laughed but without any humor. "That's why you were fucking her in your office just a minutes before, don't you?"
"It was a mistake." He tried to reason with her.
"But in your case mistakes happened in more than one time. And they said mistakes happened only one time." She said sarcastically.
"I don't need her. I need you." He said again desperately.
"Lies. All lies coming from your mouth. I feel disgusted just by looking at you, let alone talking to you. And you said you need me? Ha. Very funny. You don't need me and I sure as hell don't need you. This female behind your back is more enough than me. Breed her, mark her or fuck her. I DON'T FUCKING CARE."
"I am sorry. I am really fucking sorry." He said brokenly as kneeling on the ground.
A small laugh escaped from her lips. "Isn't it too late for that mate?" And she left just like that while single tear rolled down her cheeks.
He had made mistakes. Mistakes that will cost him everything. He knew he had lost her and this time completely.
She was broken. Again. He did break her, repair her just to break her again leaving a broken shattered woman but strong willed.
