Unknown POV
Betrayal, that s all this will ever be viewed as, I knew the risk, knew what I was leaving behind. But I couldn t let him die. Couldn t lose my mate, not even for the pack. He would hate me for what I am about to do. Hate that I betrayed the pack like this. Lily is my best friend and I never would have done this to her. But I can t live without him. Live without my mate. I knew something was seriously wrong when he didn t return from border patrol. Then getting home to a note on the door written in my mate s blood.
Knew instantly, he has never been more than five minutes late home, always eager to get back to me. He was going to hate me for this. But at least he will be alive. I can live with him hating me. I can t live with him dead.
