Aiden's POV

There were too many of them. I could barely keep my eyes open as they tore and ripped at my fur and skin covered in red gashes all over. My muzzle was torn up, my legs were bitten and broken, my fur wasn't even noticeably white anymore as I whimpered and shook on the cold forest ground, my body barely able to start healing properly. The only noises I could now hear was the howling and yipping going on full of pride and happiness of the rogues around me.

Just as I was about to give into the darkness that was finally coming to me I heard the most melodic howl I could imagine to grace my sensitively lowered ears. It sounded like sprites dancing in the wind and galloping through my entire body before resonating and lingering on my heart. It was the sound of my mate calling for me.

Bodies being thrown and torn was surrounding me, the sound of low rumbling growls, high pitched yelps and helpless whimpers covered my own as I recounted how I got to this position.

Flashback

'I won't let you give up' Three voices growled.

My wolf and my two Angels were weak from releasing so much energy within me over the last few days without much knowledge of what we were capable of. I could feel them practically dragging themselves to my aid within myself and they were so weak. So very weak.

My sister, my mate, my new family, my new pack needed me to keep going, to show them that all their sacrifices in having faith in me wasn't for nothing, that homing me and feeding me wasn't a waste of time. That letting me into their hearts no matter how small the time we had together, it wasn't just wasted space. I wasn't going to be a void in their life muscle. I was going to live and if I had to fight tooth and claw I was going to.

''Your time is done.'' Ezra's sickening voice vibrated off the trees and with the snap of her fingers the little girl that had led me through all the lies' head was in the jaws of a dirty, flea bitten rogue that was basically drooling at the taste and lingering smell of the red liquid pouring from the body the head had been ripped from.

I felt my body shake, contract and extend as the shift overcame me and I charged for anything and everything that came my way.

 End Flashbak

It was useless. There were too many for me and Seb. Seb had been thrown the dirt and ripped almost to death before he could even transform. His torn body lay in the dirt healing slowly but not fast enough and I felt like screaming at my mate to just leave me and save himself but I knew he couldn't. It was useless to try because even as I lay here bloodied, broken and bruised I still had the energy to get up and feel the crunch of bones beneath my canines as a rogue went to attack my beautiful mate from behind.

His swift movements and slick blue-black fur shone through the bland colours of the rogues and when his sapphire blue eyes met mine it gave me all the strength I needed to join him in battle but I wasn't expecting my next target to attack the rogues instead of myself.

More and more wolves piled into the clearing of trees but these weren't rogues. They didn't have the dull, coarse and unkept fur and eyes that came with the insanity of being a rogue. No, they were a pack and the sight of a once familiar black female wolf confirmed my idea that it was indeed the Eastern Pack.

There was no time for reunions as the battle went on for hours, wolf after wolf falling to the paws, claws and teeth of an enemy. I rarely saw a glimpse of Ezra's body as her speed sent her sailing through the pack and picking them off two by two when she felt they were worthy of her time and not cutting into her casual façade of looking at her nails as if this was the most boring occurrence in her life that she had to endure.

Vampires had joined the fight too, slowly mimicking her actions but they didn't discriminate in who they picked off from life's tree. They took Eastern Pack members and also rogues if they happened to move into their path.

The fight was almost lost, almost finished, everyone too tired and worn to fight anymore as Ezra dragged a kicking and screaming Ivana by her hair from the tree line as another woman's body lay limp, almost lifeless and dragging in the dirt carried only by the neck in the vampire's free hand.

Ezra whispered words of malice and threats in Ivana's ear,  throwing the woman in her free hand around like a ragdoll before the screaming of all the pack sent me into a turmoil of emotions as my body broke itself to human form as did the others.

As our bodies shuddered into our human forms Ezra wasted no time severing the limbs off both the girls, no screams were heard just mangled bodies left to the dust to fertilise what life lay beyond the dirt and to feed the animals which scavenged from them when all was over and done.

Time seemed to slow down when I caught sight of Ezra making her way over to Jayce. He was now in the middle of fending off wolves and vampires alike in his human form when he looked up at me and saw nothing but pure fear in my eyes.

Ezra took a hold of his head in her long, slender, sharp-nailed hands and broke his neck. The crack sent a wave of pulsing shudders down my spine as Jayce's lifeless body slowly came crashing to the ground.

The scene seemed to zoom as his blue orbs lost all their light and stared blankly, lifelessly and hopelessly into mine. Those eyes which held so much hope of us returning home, to us having a life beyond this violence only to be lost to it.

I took a sharp breath, my face now blank not knowing how this could have happened. I tried listening for a heartbeat, a flutter of a beat, a movement, anything. There was nothing anymore. He was gone.

Time caught up with me when Ezra's smirk sent my body into pure agony. A terrifying wail left me as tears gushed from my eyes and my body launched for the vampire.

''Why! Why!?'' I chanted over and over but never received an answer, only a deathly smile graced her lips.

A rogue latched itself onto my back and I quickly pushed it from me, sending it flying through the air before turning my attention back on the vampire that took Jayce from me.

I went for her throat not even bothering to growl and whine as my wolf wanted to do so but she quickly used her enhanced speed to side step out of my grasp and my body fell to the ground where she once stood.

I could barely see now from the tears that pooled and poured from my eyes and down my face. Why would the heavens give us such a beautiful thing as a mate if they could be manipulated and taken this easily? We're supernatural beings, so why are we so weak to the world? Why are we so vulnerable? Why do we fall so completely in love with something so easily destroyed?

''Giving up just like your family and mate?'' I heard a demonic whisper in my ear that could only belong to one foul creature; Ezra.

My head flew back and my eyes filled black as I screamed into the air. The earth shook beneath me and I heard Ezra and all the other rogues and vampires groan and scream as they were thrown back by the now slithering fog lifting me off my feet, covering and engulfing anything that touched the ground.

I felt completely weightless but with Ezra nowhere in my sight I fell to my knees beside my mate's body, all the blackness drifting around us and leaving my eyes to fill blue once again.

My hands trembled all the way through the air until they rested on his jawline as I wailed out my sorrows. His neck was red, black, green and blue from the break and I couldn't help but to softly brush my shaking fingers across them countless times as more gut wrenching sobs wracked through the air from within my chest.

''I'm so sorry.'' I whispered to him and slowly lowered my quivering lips to his forehead and then left them to move down and linger on his already cold lips for a second longer.

A growl rumbled from within someone's chest behind me and I turned my body to find Ezra's white form lying limp in Seb's jaws, dangling from the collar of her black dress as though she was a hopeless pup being carried by her mother. She was still alive but falling in and out of consciousness.

I lifted myself from the ground, not bothering to wipe my blood, dirt and tear staining streams down my face and I got up into her ghostly white one that looked as though nothing but porcelain had coated it.

''Bastards.'' She choked out only to be shaken roughly in Seb's jaws back and forth, the motion choking her in her own clothes making her reach up to grip her collar for room to breathe.

''Look at me.'' I growled as her head kept lolling to the side.

''Look at me!'' I screamed and dug my nails into her throat, holding her head straight so she could stare into my eyes that held nothing but pure rage, pain and agony.

''Get your filthy hands off of me.''

''You took something of mine. You took my mate, my friends, and my family.'' I dug my nails further into her neck at the sight of what was once Luna and Leon now lying in a pool of their own blood behind her and her demonic black blood started flowing down my fingers and coated over her chest before slipping into the seams on her dress.

''F-fuck you. Snap my neck already. Pay me back for killing your precious mate the way I killed him.'' She breathed out with whatever air was still passing through her cold, vampiric throat.

''I won't kill you like that.'' I shook my head and I could see the confusion start to slowly cloud her eyes.

''No. I will show you the pain you have caused me. I will watch your eyes burn as I rip your heart out and then you can start to feel the pain of what losing a mate feels like.'' I all but whispered in her ear and could feel her pulse start to speed up under my fingers as I rested my hand over her chest where her heart would lay.

''You will feel me wrap my hands around it. You will feel me tear it out of your body and when the last artery snaps and shrivels away you will finally feel half of the pain I'm going through right now.'' I looked into her black eyes and she seemed unbelieving at the thought of something so sinister coming from my mouth until her skin started to break under my hand on her chest.

I felt my hand break through her thick skin and I felt her black liquids drain and gush over my hand but I only felt my pure hate grow as I pushed through her ribs and grabbed a hold of her pulsing muscle, something that my mate's heart no longer did.

Her eyes bulged and blood slowly gurgled up from her throat and spewed over her lips. It gave me a sense of calm to know I wasn't the only one feeling the tearing of my heart and feeling like I was suffocating on my pain as I ripped her heart out of her chest one artery after another.

''Die.'' Her body burst into a convulsing puddle of a human like vessel when my eyes turned black again and I felt her heart slow in my hand until it faded away to ashes in the wind.

( A/N : Play the song now for utter sadness -> My Love by Sia )

''Cerberus. Come.''

I walked over to my mate's body and lowered myself to his side. Seb slowly lowered from him towering height and wrapped himself around us both creating atingling warmth between us. My arms wound around Jayce's body and I pulled him close, softly placing a kiss on his lips I whispered my final words to him.

'' My love, I'll be with you.''

With one final loving look and a soft smile I laid my head on his chest and felt at peace as our bodies turned into dust that the wind carried over the mountains, the trees, the rocks and to the ocean where our souls danced together again and I knew everyone else was there too.

The power of the Angels of Death and Life were never necessarily to take or give life it was always to just witness it and to be one with the feeling of peace and pain equally great and when it was time, to fade into nothing more than dust with those that you loved; your family, your friends, your mate.

Two souls bound together by an unbreakable bond; our love so strong it transcends time and will never die.
