101 Lycan power …
Ramsey
I followed her scent and found her by a small secluded bench under the tall , arching trees , a distance away from the funeral hall .
She sat alone , her shoulders hunched with her face buried in her hands as she cried silently .
I stood there for a second , staring at her hopelessly .
I didn’t know if it was wise to console her or to give her space .
Deciding I needed to give her space , I took a step backwards trying to walk as stealthy as I could so I won’t startle her but suddenly , she looked up .
The moment she saw me , she rose to her feet , brushing away her tears and straightening her dress .
She didn’t say a word , but the guarded look on her face said enough .
She began to walk away but I chased after her , stepping into her path .
“ L … Wait ! Please , don’t go .
”
She let out a bitterugh .
“ Why ? Are you here to gloat ? To remind me that I don’t fit in too or is it to arrest me and keep me locked up ? What is it you want this time around , Ramsey ? ”
My mind flipped with fear at her insinuations .
For a moment , I felt so bad .
But I tried not to show it .
“ I saw you leave the hall … are you alright ? ”
“ Yes ! ” she said tersely .
“ Is there no reason I shouldn’t be ? ”
“ Of course not ! ” I shook my head .
“ It’s just that , today is your father’s funeral and as someone who has lost his parents , I know how overwhelming this can be and … ”
“ It’s not overwhelming for me , Ramsey , ” she stopped me mid – sentence .
“ I’m not crying because I miss my father .
I actually don’t .
I’m crying because I am so angry .
I had to listen to everyonee up that stage with fake smiles on their faces painting a picture of my father that I don’t know of .
That’s why I cried .
”
It was my turn to be surprised .
“ Oh … ” I nodded .
“ Ermm … surpising , honestly .
I didn’t expect that .
I thought you w
“ What do you want , Ramsey ? ” she cut me short again , staring at me coldly .
“ Why are you here and if it’s because of your message through your Beta … forget about it .
There’s nothing left to say between us .
This wasn’t going as I had anticipated .
Taking a deep breath , I let my eyes search hers .
“ There’s something I need to give you , I said reaching into my pocket .
I pulled out a small , emerald chain , its delicate links glinting faintly in the sunlight .
A simple charm dangled from it a tiny , roughly made crescent moon .
“ Your father … he gave this to me before he .
.
before he passed , I cleared my throat .
“ He asked me to make sure you got it .
” Her gaze flickered to the chain , her expression softening slightly as she recognised it .
She reached out , hesitating before her fingers brushed the old charm .
“ I made this for him … when I

was little … maybe 5 or 6 , ” she murmured , looking up at me .
“ It’s old , I didn’t think he would still
have it .
”
“ Well , he held onto it all these years , ” I said quietly .
“ While we waited for help and I held him … Even … even in hisst moments , he remembered it , remembered you .
I know you had a rocky rtionship with your dad but he loved you , L .
More than you know .
He was the only person he asked of you when he was dying .
”
She stared at me for a few seconds before she looked away and snorted .
“ So ? What is this piece of information supposed to do ? Format the years of constant maltreatment from him just because of some stupid neck chain and a charm I got from a cookie box ? I don’t know , Ramsey .
.
my father had either grown senile at the time of his death or you’re just really ignorant about how loving my family had been ; supposedly .
”
“ How can your words be so careless ? ” I stared at her with shock .
“ You cannot seriously not miss your dad ? ”
“ I don’t … ” she shrugged .
“ Why is it surprising to you ? Anyways , thank you for spending his dying minutes with him , she snatched the ne from me pocketing it .
“ It’s a relief to know he didn’t spend it alone .
I should go ….
“ I miss you .
” the words left my lips before I could stop them .
She paused and turned to face me , arching her brows at me .
“ gods ! L … I miss you so much that it hurts .
”
She raised her hand , stopping me from speaking further .
“ Don’t , Ramsey .
The only reason why I’m still here having this conversation with you is because there’s nowhere else to go but don’t test my patience .
You won’t like the oue .
”
She turned to leave again .
“ I mean it , L , Unable to resist any longer , I stepped forward , wrapping my arms around her from behind .
I felt her stiffen but I didn’t let go .
“ Four years , I whispered against her hair .
“ Four years and not a single day passed that I didn’t think about you .
”
“ Ramsey … ” her voice wavered .
“ Just hear me out , L … let me speak , just this once .
” My arms tightened slightly .
“ I know I hurt you , I know I let you down when you needed me the most .
But rejecting you … it was the biggest mistake of my life .
”
Her hands came up to grip my forearms , but whether to push me away or hold me closer , I couldn’t tell .
“ Thank you for your kind words but I don’t care .
Now , will you let me go or … ” She lifted her hand , revealing a small spray can that she pointed at my face .
“ This is wolfsbane spray … just in a little concentration .
It will not kill you but you’d wish it does .
Choose … Surprised , my hold loosened and she wiggled out of it , and then turned to face me .
“ I saw the Just in your eyes when you first arrived at the Funeral hall and even right now , I can tell there’s an erection hidden under thatyer of thick clothes … ”
My ears reddened with embarrassment .
“ It’s It’s not what you think .
I was just reacting to … ”
–
“ I know you want to sleep with me so badly , she continued without letting me speak .

to fuck your ex – mate ? ”
“ L ! ” my eyes widened at her choice of words and the carefree way she seemed to be using them .

“ I don’t know if you expected me to fall over you and wee you with open arms but Ramsey ….
listen to me carefully … we will never get back together .
I bate you so much … I hate you more for what you did to my friend , Nathan , I hate you for how you enved my dad all because of your doggedness to find me … not that it makes any different now that he’s dead but my sister seems to think it was my fault … ”
“ That’s not what happened … ” I tried again but she ingored me .
“ The years didn’t change anything for me and nothing has changed between us .
You’re still the Lycan Leader and I’m still the defiant who can’t shift .
”
“ But I have changed , I took a step toward her .
“ I’m not the same weak Ramsey who let others dictate his choices .
I’m not letting you go again .
”
“ Are you ready to break off your engagement with Cassidy ? ” she asked , staring pointedly at me .
“ C’mon , L … ” I sighed , “ It’s not that easy .
It’ll take a while … yes but … we can work on it and with you by my side ….
”
“ I’ll make it simple for you , ” she interrupted me again .
“ Break up your engagement to Cassidy Thorne , seek Nathan’s forgivness for what you did and mine too .
Then maybe , I’ll give you an audience but if you cannot … then this si thest time we’d be meeting in public and if you try to force me … ”
Lax snarled within me … gaining control of my senses for a minute … before I could rein him in … I had crossed the distance between me and L and lowered my head , capturing her lips .
