Chapter 58

Kimberly let out an ear piercing scream as her whole body went numb. She couldn't believe what

just happened. It didn't happen, did it? She mentally asked, as she stared blankly at the spot where

Roy and Hugh both were, a while ago. There was nothing there, just a fallen tree.

Roy, her missing piece, her soulmate is gone. Nothing or no one could convince her otherwise,

because she felt a sharp pain in her chest when he fell off the cliff. Hugh killed him right before her

eyes.

Her knees went weak and she fell to the ground, crying into her hands. “This pain is too much’ she

cried, rubbing her chest. This is far worse than when she lost lan. This was death itself, she

concluded, as she let out another scream, not caring about her surrounding.

Alan, Elijah and some of the other pack members ran to the river below the cliff, after giving orders

to the pack doctors and the rest of both pack members, to attend to the wounded werewolves and

take the dead ones to the morgue, with hopes of finding Roy's body, leaving a devastated Kimberly

by herself. She stayed in the same spot for God knows how long, crying her eyes out, until there was

no more tears left.

'Was this how it felt like to lose a mate?’ Kimberly wondered, still staring blankly at the same spot

where it all happened, internally hoping for a miracle.

“Roy wouldn't like to see you like this" a voice suddenly said, interrupting Kimberly's sorrowful

moment.

She turned to her right, and there stood a now fully clothed Alan.

“ want to die” she said in a low voice, but Alan heard it.

"We both know that isn't the best choice” he encouraged, making her burst into another round of

sobs.

“You have to be strong for the pack” he continued, receiving a disapproving nod from Kimberly.

“They hate me... All of these happened because of me. No one would want me around. I just.. want

to join him” she sobbed.

Alan knew she didn't mean what she said. She was hurt, yes, but she wouldn't kill herself because, if

Roy were to be here, he would disapprove of her decision, and secondly, whatever actions and

decisions she would take should be in the interest of her mate and his pack, since he was their alpha

and had already marked her as his.

He let out a sigh and wrapped his arms around her trembling body, whispering comforting words to

her.

"Kimberly!"

She heard an all too familiar voice call out her name, causing both her and Alan to snap their heads

towards the direction of the voice.

There stood her father, looking quite tired and stressed. She could hear the sound of sirens from a

distance.

“Dad?!” she exclaimed, surprised to see her dad here.

'How did he find out she was here?’ she wondered, as she tried to pull her weak self up. Alan

noticed and quickly helped her up, as her dad walked towards them. He internally thanked the

moon goddess that the casualties from the war had already been taken away, so the humans

wouldn't suspect a thing.

Mr. Wright engulfed his daughter in a tight hug, placing kisses on her head as she sobbed into his

chest.

Alan noticed how Benjamin's entire body washed in relief as he hugged his daughter.

“Alan” Mr. Wright said, finally acknowledging Alan's presence after what felt like hours of reuniting

with his daughter.

“Benjamin” Alan greeted back.

This was their first meeting after two decades.

“Thank you” Benjamin mouthed to Alan, knowing that his daughter's safety in this pack was

somehow due to Alan's help, since he was friends with Hailey back in high school and was also

aware of Hailey's banishment from the pack.

Alan nodded in reply before leaving both father and daughter to have their moment alone.

“This is it" Alan murmured to himself, as he was about to face the police.

"Are you alright? Were you hurt?” Mr. Wright worriedly asked

“lan is gone, dad. He's dead” Kimberly sobbed, but deep down she knew her present tears weren't

for lan, but Roy.

“It's okay, love. Let's get you out of here”

Kimberly let her dad guide her towards the direction of the cops, but suddenly, something caught

her attention on their way. Two guys who she suspects to be werewolves, carried someone's body

on a stretcher, and she immediately recognized it as Hugh's body. A gasp escaped her lips but she

didn't stop walking, so her dad doesn't catch on.

Seeing Hugh's body, pale and lifeless brought pain to her chest, her eyes already getting teary. It

wasn't meant to end like this, she thought as tears rolled down her cheeks.

Kimberly's world suddenly came to a halt when she noticed another stretcher being carried away,

with a pale and unmoving Roy.

“It can't be. This isn't real” she tried to convince herself when her vision blurred and her heartbeat

stopped.

Mr. Wright noticed his daughter slowly losing consciousness, making him worried.

“Kim, look at me” he called to get her attention, but she couldn't hear a word he said.

She only saw his lips moving through her blurry vision, as he held into her falling body.

"Somebody, help!” Mr. Wright cried out

The last thing Kimberly saw before everything went black, was the image of her beloved mate.
