Chapter 28

I dulled my sentences, not wanting to feel the pain of death, to feel the pain that Dustin felt as he watched me die. I didn't want to feel the disappointment from my pack that didn't understand my motives.

But when I felt nothing I begun to panic.

What had I done? By dulling my senses had I accidentally made my death an eternal nothingness?

I tried to calm my thoughts, and by doing so, opened up my senses again.

The sound of battle.

I slowly rose to my feet looking around me, both mine and Ryan's pack surrounded me, fighting off the bloodmoon pack.

They were fighting for me?

"Cassandra." A voice said next to me, an airy quality to it.

I turned to my left, to see a man and a woman next to me.

I gasped. "Mom? Dad?"

I stared at them in shock, before throwing myself onto them only to reach empty air.

They gave me sympathetic looks. "We're sorry, Cassandra . . . So sorry about all of this. We knew your wolf would be special. No normal wolf forms a bond with an alpha like that."
