Chapter14
I stared down at her hand and looked back at her as I allowed the tears to fall down. “You’re right. It is a fresh wound, and i am still affected by it. How can ssomeone forget that they were abused and… and raped. Then left there to die inside a cold, and dirty cave that was located far away from everyone. They did that so no one can hear me… so no one can hear my cries of help. My cries of pain. They did it on purpose and knowing that was their intention is pure agony.” I said as my sobs racketed through my body. I felt her wrap her arms around me as she also allowed her tears to mix with mine. “I was in pain… and still am.” I whispered.
“I will make everything better for you… I swear.” She said to me. I moved away from her and looked at her. I can see sadness and hurt inside her eyes. “I didn’t catch your name..” I started off.
She looked at me before she answered. “Lily, my name is Lily.”
“Lily” Smiling faintly, I continued what I was going to say to her. “There is no point in making it better. What happened is done. I mean you see the scars that are laced on my body right?” I said raising my arms out for her to see. She paled and nodded her head. “I’m broken, I can never be the girl that I was before. That girl died a long time ago there is no one that can bring her back.” Lies, there was one person who brought that girl back…
“I am thankful that you are trying to make everything better, but you have to know that I am ot staying here forever. I have a life out there and there is nothing to keep me here.” She nodded her head and gave me a smile.
“Even if I can’t make everything better, I will be by your side no matter what. I think of you as my sister the moment that I talked to you. Promise, I won’t let them hurt you.” As she said that, it warmed my heart a bit. Smiling I nodded my head.
“Thank you.”
She shook her head and there we both sat in complete silence. Just enjoying each other’s company before we head down to get food. I was about to face the music I guess.

I leaned against the wall beside the room that Promise was staying in. I was crying once again as I heard what my sister said. I am ssuch a bad brother. I was never the protective brother that every girl had. Instead I was the one who abused her and made everyone do stuff to her for fun. Closing my eyes, I just hoped that she would forgive me. On the other side, i was glad that Lily, was going to be there for her, like how I wasn’t there.
I smiled softly as I heard their murmurs. They were getting along and that made me happy but it soon went away as I recalled the memory from that night.
She was right. That was our intentions. We wanted her to suffer… and she did. We lost an amazing treasure forever. The promise I see now is like a shell. A shell of nothing. Her eyes that held a lot of happiness, or anything was usually looking empty. Like she was dying…
That thought brought a slight pang to me. I won’t let her die. I just got her back, I just got to see her, I will protect her like how I protect my mate and son. Standing up, giving her door a last glance. I went downstairs and decided to visit the pack house.
I needed to talk to Xavier.
