“I will let you kill him,” he says.

“I don’t need my wolf to kill him,” I tell him and he stops looking at the vial in his hand. I try to take it from him but he moves his hands back.

“Let me do it then, you will give yourself too much,” he says.

He squirts some back in, before pulling it out. “You don’t have to do this, let Amanda kill him, you really want to live with knowing you killed a person.”

“He isn’t a person, Ryker, he is a monster and he killed my daughter,” I tell him. He looks at me before rubbing his hand down his face. I touch his cheek and he leans into my touch.

“Fine,” he sighs before stabbing the needle in my arm. I feel Amanda try pushing forward her attempts growing weaker before I no longer feel her.

“ I will take you tomorrow,” he says but I shake my head, knowing he is hoping I will change my mind and let Amanda do it, but I already had my mind set.

“No, I won't change my mind, I want to go now,” I tell him heading for the front door.

Ryker follows before grabbing my arm.

"At least get dressed first, you only have my shirt on,” he says looking down at my bare legs.

He tugs me upstairs back to his room before rummaging in the walk-in. He brings some clothes out and I roll my eyes at the horrid grey pants. Why is everyone afraid of being naked? I wondered. Everyone preferring to feel itchy. I didn't understand it.

I pull them on and he hands me some pink shoes. I stare at them and he grabs socks, placing them on my feet before slipping the shoes on. They felt weird and my toes feel squished.

"See better,” he says tugging my hand. I go to walk only to trip on these stupid feet strangling contraptions. Ryker grabs my arm, steadying me.

"Lift your feet" he chuckles.

"I am, they just feel funny to walk in,” I tell him, trying to lift my feet higher to stop from treading on the back of them.

Chapter 53

Ryker

Watching her try to walk in shoes was the most hilarious thing I had ever seen. Something so basic and she was struggling tremendously as she walked down the stairs like a cowboy who had been riding bareback for a week. I held her arm as she kept stumbling, tripping over the backs of the shoes.

"Argh these are stupid,” she says sitting down and ripping them off her feet while sitting on the step.

"It's not stupid, you're just not used to wearing them"

"I don't need fake feet when I already have feet '' she says, ripping the other off. She wiggles her toes in the socks.

"That's better,” she says standing up and walking off leaving the shoes behind. I roll my eyes following after her and she waits near the door. I grab my keys before grabbing her hand when Tyson comes over. He bends down pulling a shoe on.

"Where are you going?" I ask him.

"With you,” he says just as Ace walks out pulling a beanie on his head.

"You should stay,” I tell them.

"We are supposed to be your Beta's, yet you don't let us get involved,” he says slipping the other on.

"You do realize where we are going right?" I ask him and they both nod.

"We have watched you kill plenty of people Ryker, we don't scare that easily,” he says standing.

"Fine, just get it in the car,” I tell them, opening the door. They race ahead climbing in the back. Reika hopped in the passenger seat. I reach over wondering how long this seatbelt will last. I clip it in for her and she tugs on the strap.

"Please don't ruin my car,” I tell her and she nods, clutching the seat. I grab her hand, placing it on my thigh.
