“No….” I shout out and close my eyes, unable to allow myself to see my brother bleeding to death and taking his last breath. Tears roll in my eyes.
I feel so much pain. Pain I cannot explain.
I feel disappointed in myself, and guilt eats me up. It is all my fault. I am lost in pain with tears rolling down my face when I hear Coal shouting.
Coal’s voice, shouting in anger, brings me back and makes me open my eyes abruptly. “WHY…WHY DID YOU PROTECT THIS MURDERER THAT TRIED TO KILL ME? WHY .... WHY DID YOU DO THAT?”
I open my eyes to see Maria in her wolf form, lying on top of James. I take in a deep long breath I did not know I was holding. Not believing what is in front of me.
Maria is bleeding a lot, with a lot of bullet holes all over her body.
She has taken the bullets for James!
