NovelUpdateChapter 0125 When I was done swimming, I headed back home. I think I'd been gone for like only an hour.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI remember nearing out cottage and just knowing that something wasn't right. Something didn't feel right. I rushed inside our hto find my mom on the floor with her chest ripped open. Her heart next to her body.
I fell down on my knees, my legs no longer able to keepupright. I was shaken and broken as a scream tore from my lips. I remember crawling to her and pulling her body into my arms, as I wailed for her to cback. Willing everything to be just a nightmare. The pain that consumedwas like nothing I've ever felt. I felt like my heart had been shredded into pieces. I felt lost and dead on the inside. Like I had nothing to live for. Everything becdull and lost its color.
I cried for what felt like hours before burying her in a shallow grave I'd dug by myself. I ran after that. Trying to escape the pain I was feeling and the images of my mother's dead body.
I was confused and didn't understand why someone would kill her. Was it an accident? Was she just in the right place at the wrong time? Did someone intentionally kill? My mother kept to herself. She didn't have enemies, not one I was aware of anyway, so I doubted someone would want her dead.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was days later that I cacross Beth. She welcomedinto her hand comforted me. She even tookback hwhere we held a proper burial for my mother and gave her a proper grave.
"How have you been?" I ask, pushing those memories back, so I could focus. "I'm sorry I haven't visited in a while, but I guess you already know why." I swipe away the dry leaves that had fallen on her grave, while I fill her in on everything that has been going on. Being here with her after so long calms something inside me. It brings a certain peace that has been lacking since we fled this state.
"I'll bring Sadie and Aspen the next tI come," I promise, sitting cross-legged on the ground. "You will love them. You left me, but I believe you brought them to me. Beth, King, Sadie and Aspen. You didn't wantall alone, so you gave them to me. Thank you, mom." "I wish you were here though," I continue. "Maybe you could helpfigure out this curse that has been plaguing Alec's pack." I sit quietly after saying those words. I just bask in the peacefulness for a few minutes when it hits me.
I shoot up, staring at my mom's headstone in wonder. "Oh, my goddess! Thank you, mom. I promise I'll be back." I can't believe that I'd missed it and that it took coming to visit her to remember what she always told me. Giving her headstone a kiss, I rush back to the pack. This tI get there in under thirty minutes because I was in quite a hurry.
When I break through the forest and get on pack land, I scan my eyes around looking for a central place. I hurry up when I spot an area near a pond. It's a few distances away from the pack house.
Sitting down in the middle of the field, I cross my legs and close my eyes, focusing on the surrounding energy.
