Betrayed from Birth – Alpha’s Unvalued Daughter - Chapter 75: Chapter 112

Cheryl’s POV
My heart is pounding and I can tell from the equipment that I am hooked up to, that my heart rate is high. I heard Raven’s calm voice say, “It is Ok Cheryl.
You are not in trouble. The council is not here to punish you, we just need to talk. I put my number into your phone. Along with Brandon’s, and Justin’s cell numbers too.
You have been under too much stress, and you have got to calm down. Nothing is going to happen to you, you are safe here. You were only wanted for questioning, not to be put to death.
They were always just after Graham, and Reagan. They were the ones who were going to be in trouble”. My heart rate dropped some and I grabbed my phone to text Raven, “Thank you for telling me that.
But I had to do something today to get free of my pack. I will have to be punished for that. But I had to get Kevin to freedom.
Thank you for taking care of him.”
They were in kind of a V formation behind Raven so they could all read the texts at the same time.
Raven nodded at me and said, “We will ask questions, and you can text your answers, OK?” I nodded and Cole immediately asked me, “Do you know where Graham and Reagan are?”
“Yes, I was Luna for Black Moon pack, Graham, Cassandra, and my parents were all there” I texted them back.
“But not Reagan?” Cole asked with a frown. I shook my head no, and texted back, “She drugged my mate to do him like she did Justin.
Blake was furious and wanted to kill her, but instead sold her to his cousin at Blood Tracker, as a breeder.
Graham didn’t want her to die, so he begged for her life to be spared.”
I blushed a little at it, as that was the worst thing that we had thought of doing to her, and it was a very bad punishment.
Plus that was going to bring back some bad memories for Justin too. Just as expected their reaction was complete shock at hearing about Reagan’s punishment.
“Those were two of the 5 packs we were watching, Cole” the council member stated, and it was my turn to be shocked. I had no idea that they even suspected where we were.
We all thought that we were completely off their radar. “Sounds like she didn’t learn her lesson after all, and was taught a hard one from it,” Justin said in an angry tone.
I am sure remembering what she had done to him, was a very bad memory.
I nodded at him, and he suddenly smiled and said, “Did you and Blake come up with it?” I nodded and send the text, “Blake wanted to kill her for it, but Graham paid him a quarter of a million dollars not to kill her.
So she lived, but some of our men, who didn’t like her kind of set her up. So between jealous she-wolves and a Delta with an agenda, Reagan got hurt. She was pretty badly hurt, actually.
I felt very bad for her, as I didn’t know any of that was going to happen to her when she went there. She has a chosen mate there now, Clive. She is a warrior and learned to fight after her incident.
She has had 12 children now. Four for Alpha Aaron, three for his Beta whose chosen mate could not bear pups, and the rest for Clive her chosen mate who have a total of five pups.
She is happy right now, Clive loves her”. It was a long text, but no one spoke while they waited for me to respond.
I saw Raven’s surprised look, as she probably couldn’t believe that Reagan was a mother, especially to so many pups. I felt I needed to send another as they were still reading the last text I sent.
“She is a surprisingly good mother. As I said, she has changed. I guess her almost being killed by two crazy she-wolves, can do that to you.”
I see an even bigger response from that text.
I cannot hold my tongue anymore. I have to admit to what I did, and I started texting again. “I have a confession to make.
In order to be able to escape, I killed three Black Moon pack members earlier today.”
I hit send and held my breath, I can see the shock that was all over their faces. Brandon was the first to speak.
“I believe that you are under too much stress, we can talk later, Cheryl. You need to stay calm, that doctor was very clear on this fact”. It was almost like he was trying to give me an out.
But I cannot take it. I needed them to know, and I need to apologize to Raven. She has been so sweet to my boy, and I knew that they will be taking good care of him.
He had a shower, new clothes, a meal, and a haircut all in I am guessing a short amount of time. I will start there. “How long was I out?” I asked. “About 3 and a half hours,” Raven told me.
That was a little bit of time, so it is still the same day. “I am very sorry, Raven. I had to do it, and I believe that the Goddess had let her know that she was to play a part in it.
If there was any other way, I would not have done it.” I texted her, and I see another frown. I was evasive, but I needed them to know that I was really sorry for what I had to do.
“I was not allowed to leave the pack. Blake was terrified I would escape, and Graham had spent the last several years working to get my relationship to break.
He wanted to hurt Blake and me for Reagan being made a breeder, and for the attack on her at Blood Tracker. He blamed Blake and me, for both incidents.
He told me since I hurt his child he was going to hurt mine.” I texted them. “Kevin?” Brandon asked and I nodded. “Is he your only child?” Brandon asked me and I shook my head no.
“Graham got Blake to think that I had cheated on him, with Brandon. He got Blake all worked up in anger and jealousy and got him to tell the whole pack that Kevin was not his.
He spent years emotionally abusing me trying to get me to admit that I had cheated on him. I have 4 pups.
Forest is our oldest, then Kevin, then Robert, and then Casey our only girl who is out youngest at 10 years old” I texted them, and this should be a good show.
I can see the moment that Brandon and Rave saw what I texted. They couldn’t believe it either. “But he never felt the pain of it, is he stupid?” Justin was finally the one to ask.
If I didn’t have a tube down my throat, I would probably have laughed. “Clearly he is. I never left the pack, especially in the first 5 years. It is a known fact.
We had no trespassers so it was impossible for it to have happened. But Blake was jealous and irrational. He didn’t like any of the male wolves to even brush past me.
Graham told him that I was a liar and a cheater and that nothing that I said could be believed. My boys look just alike, only Kevin had my coloring.
Blake was so blinded by anger and jealousy that he believe it all. He told the whole pack I cheated, and that Kevin was not his son.
We have been ostracized completely for the last 4 years” I texted them back. “I had Graham recorded as he admitted to his whole plan, what he had done, and what his plan fully was.
But I never got to play it for Blake as he would react violently when we argued. I was scared that he would destroy the evidence and make a plan to escape.
I knew the end was near as he got Blake to do something that I never thought he would do. He started cheating on me with several of the she-wolves in the pack about 6 months ago.
Even though he knew it was my bottom line. I could come back from anything but that. But your dad had already warned me that he would get Blake to do it, years before he did.
I never thought Blake would ever hurt me so much. All in an effort to “break” me.
Blake insisted that as long as I apologized to him that he would keep me, but Kevin had to come and live with his dad” I sent out the next text as they were reading the last one.
It was silent in the room, and I knew that they felt bad for what Kevin and I had to endure at Black Moon. “I am so sorry for what you went through.
I have felt that pain, it is excruciating and memorable. I am sorry that Graham is still an evil bastard, and I promise you that I will be taking care of him personally” Cole said to me.
I felt his concern for me, as that has been my life for the last 6 months. “Thank you” I texted back. “I have felt it as well, and dad isn’t lying, it is the worst pain that I have ever felt.
Just like childbirth, but not as long as childbirth” Raven said, and I nodded. It is very similar. “Was that the end of Graham’s plan?
Because knowing him, it can’t be, or you would have left when the cheating started” Cole said, and he is sharp. He got it quickly. I nodded no to his question and started typing again.
“His end game was to have my oldest, Forest, kill Kevin in a fit of anger. Blake loves Forest, and would not have punished him for it.
He really believe that Kevin was not his son, no matter what I said. Don’t worry, he knows now, or will soon. I left a DNA test with him, so he would know.
I also had Kevin send all the things that I had saved as drafts to him while I was driving away, as well as the video recording of Graham admitting his whole plan.
I made sure Blake knew when it happened as I filmed the time and date on my laptop before I put my phone down to record our conversation.
Blake is probably now aware of what a piece of s**t Graham is now. Blake has a vicious temper. I am pretty sure that Graham is locked up now. I just wish it has never happened.
Kevin left my phone on the side of the road across the street from the entrance to Black Moon. I was not going to take a chance on him tracing me with it.
He knew I was going to leave him after the Reagan incident. But he has always been swift with punishment. I am sure that he knows just how big of an i***t he is now” I texted them.
They all silently read the question and then Brandon looked up.
“If he is that possessive and controlling how did you escape?” he asked the burning question and the tears start falling again as I told them what I did to get us free.
“I always had warriors with us when I gave driving lessons to Kevin. The night before we escaped he slept with his #1 girl who was a warrior and had asked at dinner to come with us.
I refused, the car was full. I had my plan in place and I wasn’t going to deviate from it. I had stopped ordering so many of our regular extras, the dry goods, for the pack.
So I could funnel some money for us to be able to run away. I was always ahead so no one noticed, as we still had plenty, we just worked out of my stockpile, instead of the new stuff.
She slept with Blake and he told me when he came to our bed, that she was coming with us the next morning. We had a fight, but I will not lie. Shooting her was not hard for me to do.
The other two were” I texted them. This is it. No coming back from it. While they read what I typed I continued typing my confession. “My mom and Cassandra had come with us.
We were only 5 miles from the pack and I didn’t have time for us to fight both warriors.
I was weak, and I wasn’t going to be able to do it, and I couldn’t take the risk of Kevin getting hurt fighting with the male warrior. I took Blakes’s gun the night before I left.
I knew he was busy with her, I could feel it. I used my keys to get into his office, and into his locked drawer.
I feel horrible that I had to kill an innocent warrior and Cassandra, but Graham had put me through hell for the last 7 years.
He didn’t care what he did to who, as long as his bottom line was not touched. I am so very sorry Raven. I am. She didn’t deserve it, she deserved better than Graham.
But he needed to feel the same pain that he has caused so many others with his vicious plans. Cole, I am sorry to you as well” I was crying as I was typing and took a deep breath before I hit send.
It was all done now. I watched the shock come over their faces as they read what I had sent them. I wanted to get ahead of it, so I started typing again.
I wanted to give Raven some peace, and Cole as well. I know it had to have hurt them both to see what I had done. I saw the tears in Raven’s eyes as she realized that Cassandra was gone.
I felt the tears sliding down my face, but I didn’t wipe them off. I was sorry and I wanted her to see how sorry I was. “I could have driven off, left her there on the side of the road with mom.
But that would have left Graham off, scot-free. He would have received no punishment at all for all his heinous acts. I needed him to hurt like I did. He set this all in motion.
His need for vengeance over anything else. I needed him to lose his mate too, to know how I felt when he took mine away. When he forced him to betray and abuse me with his actions.
I will never be the same, why should he? I may not have been thinking clearly at the time. He had slept with Kara the night before, and then again right before we left the pack for the driving lesson.
He showed me over and over how little I mattered to him, just following Graham’s instructions to the letter. Never allowing me to leave.
Forcing me to stay, be tormented by the pack, and feel the pain from his sleeping with others. I wanted him to realize that his actions were the direct reason that he lost his mate too.
I hope the Goddess punishes him in this life, and the next.” I texted Raven. “You don’t have to apologize to me, Cheryl.
I knew you were trapped, you had no choice but to do what you could to try to escape your situation. I know very well how Graham is.
She stood by him in allowed him to have me tormented and abused on a daily basis. I was almost killed by Reagan. They never punished anyone.
I am more sad that I couldn’t ask her why she allowed him to do that to me. I was just a child. She never once stopped him or protected me.
I am sadder at the missed opportunity to get some closure than I am about her death. She was never once a mother to me. I have no fond or sweet memories of her.
Only the abuse and watching her stand with Graham, and have no concern at all for me. She always backed him, and I didn’t matter to her, at all. I have a mother. Her name is Olivia.
She has been the one there for me from the moment I met her. I only wish that she could have been my mother from the start, not Cassandra.
Cassandra was Reagan’s mother, and I accepted that fact a long time ago” Raven said, and I can hear the pain in her voice. I can also hear the truth in it too.
She only wanted some closure, and I realized that I could give that to her. I started typing quickly again. “Two months back, I spoke to Cassandra. It was our first real conversation actually.
Blake was cheating on me at that moment, and I was in a lot of pain. She told me a lot that day. She stopped because she knew what was happening to me. I had never spoken to her like that ever before.
She told me how Graham cheated on her, and her dealing with the same pain throughout their relationship. How she was angry with him for a long time for his betrayal but eventually forgave him.
How she told me that I could choose to do that as well after Blake proved to me that he could be the man he once was. She made Graham wait for over 20 years to atone for his mistakes.
But this is the weirdest part. She knew. She knew what was going to happen. She knew that for me to escape. I had to kill the guards.
She knew that to get Graham back, I was going to be killing her too. It was like the Goddess showed her exactly what was going to happen.
She told me that I was going to have to make tough choices soon. No one knew we were leaving. It was just me. I hadn’t even told Kevin yet.
I just told him two days ago so he would be ready to go, and know his pain was almost at an end” I sent the text to them, and immediately started typing again. “I know it sounds crazy.
I know it does, but she was so calm and matter-of-fact when she spoke to me. She was in a good place and told me that she only had two things that she regrets in her life.
That is what she did to you two. She said she was a young and spoiled girl and Graham promised her the moon.
She made the wrong decision, and she said that rejecting you and not defending Raven, were the biggest mistakes of her life. Those were the two biggest regrets in her life.
She made mistakes, she acknowledged that. She said that she wouldn’t be able to tell you how sorry she truly was, and thought that you two would never believe her even if she did.
But it was the craziest thing for her to approach me and say all that, and then encourage me to make the hard choice. There was no way that she could have known what I had planned.
I was very careful, I have to believe that the Goddess let her know what was going to happen. Still knowing that, she asked to come with us anyway.
Even knowing that she would not be returning from it. What I did was hard. The hardest thing I have ever done in my life. My heart is hurting over my actions. I am not a violent person.
But after I shot Kara and the warrior, Cassandra had time to try to argue with me. Try to reason with me. But she said nothing.
It was like she knew that for Graham to finally pay for his actions, she had to die.
If she had spoken or said anything to me, I probably wouldn’t have been able to do it, and Graham would have dodged his punishment.
No one facing the threat of being shot doesn’t try to reason with the person behind the trigger. She didn’t, she knew what Graham had done to us, and I bet she knew his plans for my son.
She seemed to be at peace, despite how crazy I am sounding to you” I sent out the text. I know that they are going to think that I was completely crazy. I was there, and it didn’t make sense to me.
Only the sound of breathing was heard in the room. No one spoke. I knew they were going to think I had lost it. I guess instead of a cell, I will get a nicely padded room.
They had all stopped after reading the last text and were looking at each other with stunned expressions on their faces. They don’t believe me, I knew they wouldn’t.
They seemed shocked by what I had just alleged, but I was not lying to them. I felt I needed to send out one more text. “I swear to each of you, that I am not crazy.
I swear she knew it, without me telling her. I never mentioned it to anyone. I tried to make it as painless for her as I could. I told her I was sorry to do it to her.
I am sorry for any pain that I have caused you.” I hit send and watched them check her phone again. Chapter 113
Cheryl’s POV
Raven turned back to look at me and said, “No, you are not crazy.
Cassandra’s family is directly descended from Selene, the Moon Goddess herself. The Goddess obviously let Cassandra know what was going to happen.
The Goddess had come to me in a dream a long time ago to tell us that something else was going to happen.
The fact that you told no one, should let you know it was indeed the Goddess’s will for you to be successful in letting you escape.
Cassandra knew that she was going to lose her life today, and was prepared for it. She wanted to make it right for you, Blake, and Kevin. It seems like I did get my closure after all.
Knowing that she told you this, so you could relay it to us, was a comfort to me.
I feel like she specifically said it to you because the Goddess already knew that you would be coming here for protection.”
“I didn’t even know that I was coming here, so it would have had to be the Goddess to know that.
I was thinking about going to the human city to live, actually. I was going to drive several states over, and raise Kevin. But for some reason, I felt compelled to drive here and then called Leander.
I didn’t even know that I was coming here when I left Black Moon until I got to the city. I felt like I should call my brother.
I don’t know how Cassandra could have known this unless the Goddess really did tell her what was about to happen” I texted them back.
I am stunned now, but I felt better now that I know that the Goddess knew that I would be safe here, and led me back to Black Adder.
“It makes sense, I have never seen our oldest children just connect with anyone like they did with Kevin. It is not that they are rude to anyone.
It is just that they are very cautious when meeting new people, and it takes time for them to build a connection with someone. But they were fast friends in less than 10 minutes.
The Goddess seems to be at work in this. I believe that as well” Brandon stated to the room, and they nodded in agreement. “I have to say that I have not seen Kevin this happy, for years.
He was smiling, and it has been a while since that has happened. He is less stressed, and clearly happy at being here. But I can completely understand if we can’t stay” I texted them.
“Why can’t you stay? Where are you going to go?” Raven asked.
“I was banished, I have broken the law, and I made the deal that as long as Kevin was protected I would tell you where Graham and the other were. I can accept my fate. Just please take care of my son.
Blake may have realized his mistake now, but that doesn’t erase 7 years of abusive behavior.
I won’t go back, and I don’t want Kevin to go back, no matter what Blake says to you to try to get him back.
As long as Graham and Forest are there at Black Moon, it will not be safe for Kevin to go back there.” I texted them. “He is safe here, and so are you.
We will not be pressing any charges against you” Brandon said to me. “I appreciate that, but the fact remains that I killed three pack members from my pack today.
That will be carrying a whole new, and much more serious, set of charges. You taking care of Kevin will set my heart at peace, and I am good with that.
You are good parents, and I can see how well your child behave. You have done a good job with them.
I can accept my punishment knowing that this is where the Goddess wanted Kevin to be” I texted them back. My heart was happy. I did what Graham said I wouldn’t be able to do.
I protected my son from him. Kevin is no longer there to be kicked around, bullied, or abused. We are done with them, and Kevin now has friends his own age that like him, and want to be around him.
Even if I was put to death for my actions, I will be accepting of it. “So, Luna Cheryl, you mentioned to us that you were held prisoner at your pack.
Not allowed to leave, and if you did leave you were always with warriors who were told to make sure that you could not escape. Is that correct?” council member Emerson asked me. “That is correct.
Blake was paranoid that I would leave him, or leave to come and cheat on him with Brandon here, so I was not allowed to leave. I don’t go shopping, I didn’t go out, or to dinner.
We had about 5 date nights out at restaurants, mostly to celebrate our anniversaries. But no, I could not go get in a car and leave on my own.
The first 7 years, it was because I was scared to leave in case you found me.
But the last 8 years, I was basically under a kind of house arrest, mainly because of the rumor spread around by Graham about me” I texted his answer to him.
He nods and goes back to typing on his cell again. “I would like to tell you how much I appreciate you relaying that to us, Cheryl. I also needed some closure as it hurts to be rejected.
I had no explanation for why she did it all those years ago. It helps me to know that it was just for petty, stupid, and childish reasons. It does make me feel better to know that now.
It also made me feel better to know that she did feel bad about turning her back on Raven being hurt at Silver Blade too.
I have been angry with her for so long about what happened to Raven at Silver Blade. That was one of the real reasons why I wanted her found.
I needed to know why she allowed that to happen, instead of just giving my pup to me like I told her and Graham to do” Alpha Cole said to me, and I nodded to him.
“Cheryl, to clarify, was Kevin allowed to be hurt, knowingly, at the Black Moon pack?” council member Emerson asked. “Yes, he was bullied quite badly by pack members.
Pushed, shoved, and just this morning our oldest child had his friends try to hold Kevin, that was how he got the black eye. I am proud to say that Forest got one too.
Kevin is a strong fighter and all he ever wanted was for his dad to give him any kind of encouragement. But Blake refused to say anything positive about him.
Kevin works out harder than anyone, as Blake really likes for his men to be in peak physical condition and excellent fighters. As a matter of fact, Kevin is now sparring with the adults now.
I believe it was originally intended for him to get hurt in training, as he was now stronger than Forest. He never complains, he just keeps trying as hard as he can.
Just know that we had to leave, sir, we had to. It was a matter of time before Graham would have had Forest kill Kevin.
I wish I had kept my phone, but I didn’t want them to be able to track or trace me with it” I texted him my reply. “Cheryl, I am thinking that there is a way to get the recording back.
I think that would be all the proof that we would need to show that your hands were tied as a prisoner of Black Moon.
That you had to do what you needed to be able to escape because that was clearly a certain death situation. I believe that we can get you past this Luna Cheryl.
I was already watching your pack as one that we believed Graham was hiding at.
I thought it was odd that every time we came there, it was a total of at least 6 minutes that we had to wait, to even get through the gate.
We are supposed to have immediate access, but we never had it at Black Moon. Blake had an excuse for it every single time it happened. We had the same problem at Blood Tracker too.
Just not as long a wait. We never saw any of you there. Can you explain that?” council member Emerson asked and all eyes directed towards me. “Graham gave all kinds of money to Blake.
Blake knew if we were found there that he could lose his pack. He refused to give me up, and Graham was his cash cow, so he refused to give him up too. He was stuck with 5 of the total 6 of us there.
He built an underground bunker that sat midway between the packhouse and Graham’s home. My parents lived with Graham, so we split the difference.
By the time you made it up the drive to the house, we had already had about 10 minutes to get where we needed to be.
If Graham and Cassandra were out, Blake would just mindlink them not to return until you left. But the phone is a problem. I don’t know if it had a locator on it or not.
He could have had one, which means he has probably found it by now. I just wasn’t going to take the chance on Blake being able to trace my location.
But I can’t go with you, and Kevin was the one to throw it out of the vehicle. He thought it was funny that he threw it across the street from the entrance to Blak Moon.
I actually wanted to go back, and leave the SUV across the street for them with the keys hidden in the console, as I don’t want any kind of reminder, or help, from that pack.
I refuse to owe Blake anything at all ” I typed out for them. “Yes, we knew you couldn’t go with us tonight, but would you consider allowing Kevin to go with us? I will guarantee his safety.
I think that we will need that video for us to be able to move forward and for you to be able to not be punished like you normally would for it.
It will be dark in an hour and it will take us an hour and a half to get there. I think that we can get someone to run some interference for us, while we search for the phone.
Instead of leaving the SUV that we are returning across the street. We could park it in front of their gate. They would have to climb over the wall and by then we would be gone.
That is if the gates turn outward as you enter. If they turn to the inside of the gate, we might have a problem” Alpha Cole stated. “They open outward, but there has to be another way.
I just cannot lose him, Please I risked both of our lives getting him to freedom. Please do not take him back there. He cannot be around Graham. Graham will kill him for what I did to Cassandra.
He won’t hesitate to do it. He would do it just to hurt me, and Blake. Please, Raven, Kevin cannot go back to Black Moon” I texted Raven. “We will not go alone, Cheryl.
You are not aware of this, but we have been training for over 15 years now, for an upcoming war. A war that I now suspect will be with Blood Tracker and Black Moon.
They are not aware that we now know who are opponents are, we finally have the upper hand. We have been training for a long time and we have several hand-to-hand experts.
Snipers, and regular marksmen. We also can work with bows and arrows when we are coming in silent. I swear to you on my life, I will not let anything happen to your son.
He would come back safely with us. I would go, along with Justin and Leander.
Cole and council member Emerson, and I will hand pick our best men to go with us” Brandon said to me, and I am still shaking my head in the negative. It is too great a risk for me to allow it.
“I will be going too, Brandon. Who do you think the distraction will be?” Raven said, and I still refuse to let Kevin go. It is just too risky. “I don’t think that is a very good idea.
It isn’t safe, and I would be focused on the kid, I do not want you getting hurt, for any reason. You are my mate, I worry about you” Brandon said to Raven.
“I agree, I will want to make sure that Kevin is protected too. I don’t want something to happen to you there either. I heard what Cheryl said.
These people are clearly dangerous, and I don’t want to take the risk of you getting hurt either” Justin agreed with Brandon. “Plus they know who you are, Raven. Blake came here for training before.
He wanted to see what his “competition” was. He was very angry that you and Justin both managed to beat him.
He is unbeatable in our pack, so it was a serious ego blow to him that not just Brandon beat him, but Justin did too. He ended up sending Travis back here for future training.
Travis had a big crush on Reagan. Even with Blake warning him to leave you alone, he still came here and from what I hear, he propositioned you.
They would recognize you just for looking like Reagan, at least the senior men would, and the ranked wolves” I texted Raven.
They can all see the fear showing all over my face and I am shaking my head no, I started typing on my cell phone again, but stopped when I heard, “I will do it. I know that you can’t go, mom.
If you need it I am pretty sure I can find where I threw it. Don’t worry about me. I will be fine.
I can tell that they won’t let me be in danger, and if we go tonight, they will never even think we would return. They think we are long gone by now.
Plus I am smaller than the grown men, I could stay hidden better” Kevin tells me and I can tell from his way of thinking that this is like a spy mission from those action movies that he likes.
I wonder just how much of what was said did he actually hear. I just cannot take the risk of something happening to him and I started texting again. I cannot allow this to happen. I won’t agree to it.
“NO! He cannot go. Blake will want him back now, as he knows that he is indeed his pup. He would use his having Kevin to get me back. I know that we won’t be able to survive this.
I cannot lose him, please don’t take him back. I will pay for my crimes, do not let Blake get him back. He will never truly be safe with Blake” I texted Raven.
My machine is beeping an alarm and my doctor comes into the room asking, “What are you doing to her? Her blood pressure and heart rate are too elevated.
I told you that she has been under too much stress, this is not good for her at all” I already see a nurse entering the room right behind him heading towards me with a needle in her hand.
I tried to stop her but I wasn’t strong enough. She administered the shot quickly, and I could not stop my tears from falling. Apparently, it doesn’t matter what I want. I know why they need it.
It is documented proof of what happened. It is irrefutable documentation that I didn’t make it up. that it really happened.
It proves what I had told them was the truth, but I just can’t let my baby boy go back there. It isn’t safe. “I can do it, mom, you need to have some faith in me. I am almost a full-grown wolf.
Let me make a few choices myself. It will be OK. I swear to you that I will come back safe” Kevin tells me as he kisses my forehead and I am drowsy now.
I keep trying to text them to please not do it, but I cannot focus on the keyboard anymore. My fingers are heavy and I can’t type.
I feel a hug and then Raven whispers to me, “I will keep your pup safe, Cheryl, even at the cost of my own life. Do not worry about Kevin. By the time you wake up we will be back”.
She squeezes the hand that didn’t have the IV in it and then leaves the room. It is silent now, and I feel another tear slide down the side of my face. I pray that she is right.
I hate that they are taking him back to Black Moon, but Kevin was right.
