Chapter41
Xavier
The rain fell around me, making me wet but I didn’t care seeing as I was already dripping wet. My eyes were glued on what was in front of me. I didn’t know what I was feeling. My wolf was whining and sitting in the farthest corner of my mind.
Then it happened. My eyes watered as I didn’t let my eyes move away from the sight. The sight of
my mate’s name engraved on a gravestone.
My tears fell as my heart clenched in the most painful way. It was just last week when I was told the news that she passed away from cancer.
At first I did not want to believe what Lily was telling me, until Jayden had to tell me in a calm voice that she indeed was gone.
I never truly knew the feeling of what it feels like to lose a mate. I mean sure I rejected her and moved on, but that didn’t mean that I never stopped my heart from loving her and to yearn for her
presence.
I felt like someone has ripped my heart out of my body and stuffed a black hole in replacement. Everything was cold to me. I did not feel the same but who was I kidding… I was never the same
when she left the pack.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” I whispered as I kept reading what was engraved onto her stone. Lifting my head up, I allowed the rain to wash away my tears but it caused more tears to fall.
-Flashback~
I was sitting in my office as usual, going through some paperwork. I wanted to finish so I can go to bed and rest. But i guess the Goddess had other plans for me seeing as Lily barged into my office. Greatly annoying me I have to add.
I snapped my eyes up and growled at her. “Lily you know how I am when someone barges into my
room without knocking.” I said. I can feel my anger get bigger but it quickly deflated once I noticed
her red eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Lasked cautiously. I had a feeling that she got into an argument with Jayden and
wants someone to talk it through.
“Did you and Jayden get into a fight?” I asked her again but she still stood there in front of the door. That was when I noticed she was holding onto a piece of paper. I raised my eyebrow up and looked
back at her.

“Dead…” was one word she said to me.
I stood up abruptly thinking that she means Jayden was dead. “What do you mean by dead? Is Jayden hurt?” I demanded at her.
I was already shouting at some guards to come into my office when Lily ran up to me and hugged me. I froze at the contact before wrapping my arms around her.
“Jayden is fine…” She whispered into my chest.
“Then why did you say dead? Who is dead?” I asked her as I pulled her away from my body to look at her.
She stared at me with broken eyes and then she was bawling her eyes out. I flinched at the sound and hugged her again. “You should go look at the letter.” She said through her sobs.
I nodded and let her go before walking over to pick it up from the ground. That was when I finally knew why she was crying.
My hands trembled as I read what was written on the letter.
Dear whoever reads this,
I am Promise’s best friend, Loanne. You might have all seen me as I stayed at your pack for a while to be with her. I am not going to write this out longer, and will just get to the point as to what this letter means.
I am here to inform you all that Promise passed away last night. I knew she would not want me to keep her passing a secret so here I am writing to you all of it. She passed away without any pain, so please do not imagine her in great amount of pain before she passed.
If you all need to know more about her passing, please do not be afraid to contact me as I will try my best to tell you.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Loanne
“Promise she is dead… Dead Xavier! She’s gone!” Lily cried out as I heard a thump. My hands dropped to my sides as the letter slowly floated down to the carpet.
I shook my head in denial. “No. She can’t be dead. I would have felt it… felt the bond break right?” I asked to no one in particular.

“But you must remember you rejected her so the bond is forever gone…” Jayden’s voice said from the door. I looked at him with blurry eyes.
“She can’t be-”
“NO SHE IS DEAD XAVIER! MY LITTLE SISTER… IS GONE.” He yelled. I can see tears falling out of his eyes.
