-Gabby’s POV-

The ceiling was the only thing I had been watching for the last couple of days. People had come up with food and drinks and then came back later to take back the full trays. It wasn’t that I couldn’t eat, was that i couldn’t move. Not a single muscle in my body was functioning as it had used to.
Maybe they did but I just didn’t want them to.
I used to have a lust for life, a sense of wonder and curiosity but that was all gone. The one thing that had kept me alive through all of the pain and abuse I had went through, it was gone.
And i didn’t know how to live without it anymore…I didn’t know if it wanted to live anymore.
The door opened up and a little light seeped through the cr*ck of the door from the lamp in the hallway.
I felt the bed dip down and heard the crunch of bags being placed down on the bed. Cans of sodas were placed there as well and the ty was turned on and lit up the dark room,
She sniffled and wiped her nose.
“We don’t have to talk, you don’t have to do anything, but I just need to be with you. I’m not gonna leave, I’m just gonna lay here, eat these snacks and watch movies.” She turned on a movie and made herself comfortable in the bed, crawling under covers and opening
bag of chips.
I heard how the movie ended and then another one began and around the third movie I started to hear some snores.
I turned my head to the side and saw Ca*sandra asleep with her eyes fluttering and a chip stuck to her lip.
She seemed peaceful but I knew that she wasn’t. They were all suffering from how I felt but that was the thing, I didn’t care. I didn’t care about any of them, about the people I loved and would die for. Right now I couldn’t even bring myself to care for them. Whatever this darkness was inside of me, it had always been there, it was a familiar feeling but I had always kept it at arm’s length. Now, however, it was devouring me and I was letting it.
I closed my eyes and turned to the other side.
-Third person POV-
Cas*y came down to breakfast with a glum look on her face and she looked exhausted.
“Sweetheart, how did you sleep?” Marie asked her and looked with concern at the girl she had come t
to care very much for.
*I slept in Gabby’s room, and stayed up for a long time in hopes that she’d might say something,” She sighed and slumped down on the chair. The look of defeat on her face was severely discouraging to everyone that sat around the table.
“How did it go?”
“Not well,” Silence fell over the room as everyone picked at their food. An Omega came and poured them all coffee but the tension weighed them down and everyone could feel it. They had stayed away from the communal dining room for days now so as not to affect the other pack members.
“The preparations for the party will begin today,” Marie said and softly bit down on a piece of fruit.
“That’s good,” C*ssy said and smiled.

CHAPTER 41.
They tried to lighten everything up so to not lose faith because they couldn’t. There was no way they would lose faith in the person they all loved but how could they save her when they were drowning themselves?
The door opened up and Alden stepped inside the room.
He threw a quick glance over everyone present and felt the tension the second he stepped in. He sunk down on his seat and chewed down on a piece of toast without any more eye contact.
“Alpha,” an Omega stepped in, she looked warily at her Alpha as he turned his head and met her gaze with a hard one of his own.
“Should we decorate the outside as well or just the big hall?” She asked.
He looked at his mother who waited for him to make the decision Himself.
“Just the inside, I have other plans for the outside that I’ll take care of myself,” Aiden said and nodded his head.
“Thank you, Greta,” She smiled and bowed her head before walking out and closing the doors behind her.
“What plans do you have?” Aiden didn’t answer his mother, instead he looked at his food with a much too occupied mind, hoping what he had planned would do something to restore Gabby’s trust in him. Not just hers, but everyone. He could see how he had lost the respect of his parents and Gabby’s brothers, as well as Ca*sandras. He had to make it right or he couldn’t be the Alpha he need to be. They hadn’t raised him to behave as he had and he needed to do better than his past.
-Aiden’s POV-
My brother had threatened me. Had it just been me and the pack I could ve dealt with it better but he threatened her. I knew that he was being serious. There was no way that he would back down until he had not just the pack but my wife as well. Gabby was broken, her soul had been shattered and it was all because of him.
way with it.
There was no reconciliation, no mercy, and not a chance in hell that he would get away
There was only one way this would go down, my brother had to die
“Alpha, do you plan on telling us what you have planned?” Nick asked me as he walked after me up the stairs. I ignored him and continued walking
“Aiden.” He growled.
“No,” I said. He grabbed my shoulder and pulled me to a stop.
I growled and slowly turned my head, watching where his hand held a grip of my shoulder.
“Growl all you
ou want, it is my sister’s safety we’re talking about and you’re making plans that involve her, you will tell me.”
I shrugged of his shoulder and looked him dead in the eye as I tuned around.
He wouldn’t let this go and I didn’t feel like be hounded for the rest of the day. Not that he would, he’d beat it out of me which honestly sounded kind of appealing. My thirst for blood was growing by the minute and until I had the rightful recipient in front of me, everyone else was in danger.
“Come with me,” I walked back down and into my office. Noah and Edmund saw us and came running over. I groaned as they barged
in and closed the door.
“Are we having a secret meeting?” Edmund said and raised brow.
“Not anymore.” I groaned.

CHAPTER 41.
They were all staring at me, waiting for me to disclose my plan.
“Who does Gabby love more than anyone else on this planet?” I asked and looked at them for an answer.
They guys all looked at each other but neither answered.
“Her brothers,” Said a voice coming from over by the door. Ca*sy stepped in and closed the door.
What the f*ck was the point of having a door if people were gonna come and go as they pleased?
Where was the respect for their Alpha.
“What Alpha?”
Ouch
“Exactly,” I said and narrowed my eyes on Ca*sy who took a stand next to Gabby’s brothers.
“They only thing stronger than her pain, is her love for you three. And I’m gonna use it to get her out of that room.” They started growling and their eyes started glowing.
“How?”
killing one of you.”
“By killing
