Chapter 62
He snatched me up, I slammed my elbow into his chest, and then turned around hitting again.
“Don’t worry, just because I didn’t get you this time, doesn’t mean I never will” he seethed through gritted teeth. And then I heard the sound of metal about the same time I saw Atticus and felt a sharp pain right
under my ribs in my spleen. Atticus lunged forward, shifting in mid lunge the sound of his clothes
ripping. He snarled landing on top of him, he shifted when he hit the ground and reached up clasping
onto Atticus’s neck.
I gasp letting out a small cry, feeling my eyes well up with tears. “Atticus!” I screamed. Atticus let out a small whimper and then rolled over twisting his body to bite him in the stomach. I watched in horror as
they fought, my vision started to blur from tears, but I didn’t realize it wasn’t tears until it was too late.
My head started spinning and I vaguely felt warm liquid all over my, I reached down covering it with my
hands only to pull back to see blood everywhere, I frowned and then black spots swam in my vision and
my legs started to shake, I gasped to for and grabbed onto a nearby tree, before the world spun together
in a black blur and then I was out cold.
I woke up to pain everywhere, all over my body were aches and pains, especially in my side. I tried to
move despite the pain. I wiggled a little and then reached up to my stomach opening my eyes.
“Atticus!” I said in realization, sitting up, a sharp pain went through my body and I froze with the pain, I stopped breathing, and whimpered loudly.
“God damn it Kendal” Dez cursed making me lay back down.
“Atticus” I repeated, Dez’s eyes turned soft and he look at me with regret, I judged his expression.
“W–where is he?” I asked, feeling my chest tighten with worry. Dez didn’t reply.
“D–Dez tell me where he is”
“Kendal…” he trailed off “He didn’t make it” I felt my heart shatter.
“W–what?” I asked.
“He had bad wounds, he had lost too much blood, he was gone before they got there” he told me watching
- me.
“B–but” I felt hot liquid on my face as I realized. Atticus sacrificed his life for me. I started sniffing and then tried to sit up.
“Kendal no you cant sit up, you aren’t supposed to move” he told me. I didn’t care, I could barley see

though my tears. I threw my covers off and got up anyways and sat in Dez’s lap, he tensed up and froze completely.
“Kendal what are you-” I curled into him even though it hurt so bad to sit like this, I could barely breathe. I started crying even harder, and I couldn’t stop. I sobbed, Dez eventually wrapped his arms around me and held me. I must have cried for hours, I thought about him and that made me cry even more.
My chest hurt, there was a whole in my chest and I was filled with heartbreak. Atticus gave his life for me. And he shouldn’t have done that, he shouldn’t have had to make that sacrifice. He was so young, he could’ve found his mate and had kids and I ruined it.
“Kendal don’t think like that” Dez told me softly, I shook my head, bringing on another round of tears. I wasn’t worth it, I didn’t deserve it. I missed him, I wanted him here. Eventually I cried myself back to
sleep.
I woke up in Dez’s bed, the sheets were warm, so I knew Dez was somewhere close. I looked around finding him on the other side of the bed, fast asleep. My chest tightened when I thought about the recent
events.
My emotions bubbled up and I ended up crying again. I got up going to the bathroom then the closet, I closed and locked the door and then balled up in the corner and cried for a little while. I heard a soft
knock.
“Kendal” I heard Dez’s low voice say, I didn’t reply I knew he could probably hear me thinking so it wouldn’t matter if I replied or not.
“Open the door” he said lowly, he didn’t raise his voice he knew I would hear him. I didn’t respond i couldn’t find the energy to speak much less get up. I just laid there I thought about getting up but I just didn’t care about anything enough to find any energy. So I mainly just sat there staring at the wall or crying.

“How is she?” he questioned.
“Is that really relevant?” Dez snapped at him annoyed at the personal question.
“I’m her doctor so yes” James replied nodding, giving him a skeptical look.
“I don’t know” he finally said sighing rubbing his head slightly shifting in his seat. The doctor rose an eyebrow, and waited for him to elaborate but he didn’t. He didn’t want to speak anymore he felt he had done enough speaking for the day. Communication wasn’t his best attribute, and it wasn’t something he enjoyed doing either. He didn’t care about anything or anyone enough to talk about anything outside of pack business.
