Life After the Storm

When I hear star's words, my heart aches knowing that something is happening. I stand up and fight through the pain and shift. I take off knowing that I need to find him, so I can help him. Knowing that he doesn't deserve it,, but my child deserves to have a father. I don't want him dead, he needs to survive.

I can feel the pain worsen and ease up at the same time. Then I wonder if he is being tortured. Wondering if they are torturing him almost to death but not actually allowing him to die just being barely alive. Is that why I am feeling this pain what is happening. I'm running as fast as I can, trying to pick up his scent, hoping I won't be too late?

He is an alpha, he is strong so why is he on the verge of dying. As I become closer, I'm surprised by what I see. I see Ivan tied to a tree, tears fill my eyes at the sight of his agony. I run up to the tree then touch him as his head comes up, he looks at me with black eyes full of anger. Once he realizes it's me, his eyes go blue, and he says my name.

"Oh my God Ivan, what has happened to you who has done this?"

"Lily you need to run and don't ever come back here please you're not safe. Let me here to die, just run please."

"Ivan, I can't let you hear to die , you're going to be a father, our daughter is going to need you."

He looks at me with tears in his eyes, it's almost like he's broken. Knowing how it feels, I put my hands on his wounds to help heal them. When I see it's not working I shift. I then allow star to lick all of his wounds until the blood is gone. Hoping that he hasn't lost so much that he will faint. Knowing I will never be able to carry him.

As most of his wounds are no longer bleeding, I shift back to my human and untie his body from the tree. I try to help to where his body doesn't hit the ground hard. But he is definitely not light, so he doesn't hit the ground as softly as he should. Once he hits the ground, I hear a groan. I'm so thankful that he's awake and that he's alive.

As I hear twigs breaking, I become nervous hoping that it is not another Wolf,, especially the Wolf that has been torturing him. I jumped and looked back, I noticed Landon standing there. As he gets closer, I can see the confusion in his eyes. I want to explain everything, but there's no point. He doesn't care.
