Chapter 0227 He grins atlike a fucking idiot. "She's found her beacon of light." 'Beacon of light?' Aero quizzes "What are you talking about?" I demand Damien shakes his head at me, "She's surrounded with a darkness that she is constantly fighting off. The darkness slowly crushes you. It takes over every inch of you when you are least expecting it." "While Neah fights it, there is no space for her to have the ability to be a strong and powerful Alpha.

But the questions were not relevant right now.
He reaches the door and turns his head back over his shoulder. "I will be your Beta, Dane. But at the end of the day, my priority will always be protecting Neah. Oh, and you can be the one to break the news and I will not be referring to you as Alpha." He smirks before heading out the door.
I tidy up the office before going to find Neah. It buysstime, trying to decide what I should say, in the end I opt for the truth. Lying could have an even worse outcome. And I want to grow old with her. Surrounded by our kids and grandkids.
She's sat in the large armchair in front of the window of our bedroom. The twins are cuddled into each side of her as she reads them a story. I recognised the book too. It was one of the first that Klaus had given to Neah to help her learn to read.

Her eyes flicker up to me, but she continues to read as though shem never once struggled.
Both boys are asleep by the tshe is finished. She closes the book and smiles atwhile hugging them tighter but her smile slowly fades. "What's happened?" "Salems dead."
"That's good isn't it?" "Blair killed him." X
