Knox POV 

“What is taking them so long!” I barked, growing irritated. Running my free hand down my face, I sighed, knowing I would lose my nerve if they took much longer. 

“I don’t know, but I would guess they are trying to think of something to say to you.” The stranger offered from the corner of the room; he had suggested he hide so that I had a witness and support in case they tried to have me overpowered and silenced. He just wanted to help me, and I was grateful. 

“What do you mean?“I asked, spinning to look into the darkness, but I couldn’t 

see him any more. 

“I mean, you sounded upset; they know you are suffering after what you did. I imagine they are trying to find ways to calm you down and lies they can tell you to ensure you stay subdued.” He expressed into the empty ballroom, his voice bouncing off the high ceilings. 

“Oh.” I whispered. I wanted to take responsibility for my actions; I needed to. I got that, or they would spend the rest of their lives trying to live down my mistake. Or the guilt of having to kill me! Looking down at the blood–stained tiles, I sensed that familiar lump form in my throat and wondered how I had let everything get so wrong. I allowed my eyes to drift up the stairs that Lottie and I had less than an hour ago walked down together, hand in hand. Ready to present her as my mate, my world and the pack’s Luna. 

“Knox?” A precious voice echoed through the room, my whole body suddenly easing like her tranquil voice had the ability to soothe me. 

“Hmm,” I replied, refusing to pull my eyes from the stairs. I could sense her approaching and knew she wasn’t alone. Kane was with her. I could feel the apprehension rolling off him in thick waves and knew it was because he was scared I was going to hurt her, too. My friend was right about him. He no longer trusted mel I got that; I no longer trusted myself.

“You ok, stud.” She whispered, looming until I could feel her reaching for me; stepping away from her touch, my eyes drifted to the curtain that I had hidden behind with her, my fingers bringing her to a rather beautiful release that I was pleased was one of the last moments together–something to remember me by. 

“What are you looking at, Knox?” Kane asked, his voice firmer than the Lotties. Turning, I finally faced them; my eyes drifted over Lottie, and I felt my heart lunge at the sight of my stunning mate; she had her mother’s dress on still, although I could have sworn it had blood on earlier. At least, it did in the memory my friend had shown me. I suddenly felt a little confused by what was real and what was not. 

“What happened to your dress I asked.” Pointing to it with my hand that held the dagger I planned to use to free us all of our problems. 

“What the fuck is that?” Kane hissed, stepping towards us. Clicking my tongue at my brother, I pulled the blade from his reach and hid it behind my back, but it was too late; the damage was done; they had seen it. 

“Oh, yeah, I wasn’t meant to show you that… yet.” I laughed, shaking my head 

like a fool. “Dammit.” 

“Knox, give that to me, brother,” Kane demanded, stepping closer as I stepped away in a dance of wills. 

“No, can do, brother. You see, I need it!” I nodded, using it to point up at the window, with the curtain still tucked to the side for Lottie to be able to see Kane.

“Seems crazy, right baby, that not so long ago I had you pinned against that.. making promises I now can’t keep.” 

“Why can’t you keep them?” She asked softly, although I noted she hadn’t moved like Kane had. He kept trying to edge closer like I wasn’t paying attention, and I knew all he wanted was to get the dagger away from me. 

“Stop, Kane, or I will do what needs to be done before I get to say goodbye.” I nodded, my brother’s feet faltering as he processed my words. 

“Say goodbye, Jeez, Knox. You are scaring me.” Kane growled, his face

tightening with the pain I knew I was coursing him. “What do you mean to do with it?” He asked, but as I asked, he stayed still. 

“WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE!” I screamed, the sound of my broken voice echoing around the hall like a ghost. 

“You are making NO fucking sense!” Kane bellowed back, his voice chasing mine around the room, like we, ourselves, had done many times throughout our lifetime. 

“I do; I make perfect sense, brother. You just don’t wanna see the truth.” I scoffed, waving the dagger around like it was an extension of my hand. I caught Lottie tense and winced, hating the nervousness washing over her already drained 

body. 

“The truth?” Kane screamed. “Is that you are a monumental pain in my ass Knox! But NOT a murderer! You get that, don’t you? You DIDN’T kill him!” 

“I did! I remember! I DID!” I demanded with the resolve of a guilty man, willing to accept his fate. 

“YOU can’t remember what never happened, Knox!” Kane bickered with me like we were fucking children. 

“This is pointless, Kane. I know what I did; now let ME repent for it!” I demanded, my eyes glued to my brother’s pained eyes. I could see the yellows of his wolf in his eyes, ready to pounce, even if it was reluctantly after our last run–in. 

Turning, I looked back into the darkness, hoping to see my new friend there for moral support because seeing and sensing the hurt through my twin bond with Kane was making me second–guess everything; surely he and I could find a way to fix this. To make people see this was an accident! 

“Your brother can’t bring your father back, Knox! No one can! He is dead… Because of you!” The stranger expressed sadly. “Kane can’t fix this. The only thing that will fix this is for you to do what we have agreed.” He added calmly. 

Nodding firmly, I looked back at Kane, determined to follow through with my

decision. 

I had to die in order for my brother and mate to live… really live!
