Finally, after almost 5 years, this book has come to an end. A special thank you to everyone who read and voted and I am genuinely sorry for taking forever to finish this story.

Book three will focus on Ethan more than Eleanor and Kyle but their POVs will still be there from time to time. 

Anyway thank you and happy reading. 

Chapter 20- Unedited

Kyle wanted nothing more than to haul his phone across the wall so that Ethan can stop calling him, he understood that he was worried about his sister, but he was just as stressed and couldn't take another half ass remark from Ethan.

They were all back at the safe-house, not only did he have to comfort her mother and sisters, he also had to keep everyone reassured that Eleanor was fine. Brian was devastated when he heard the news about their father and Kyle had told him he can come back if he wanted to, he had said he will be there at dawn. In fact, they were all coming back for the burial.

Zoe was with his mother and sisters in the other room upstairs, one of the elders of the pack was preparing his father's body for burial while he was waiting in the living room with Kevin, who was still recovering, Elvis and Tom. For the first time even Elvis looked worried. The rest of the elementals were in their respective rooms and some women with his mother. Robert was still in the hospital with Liz.

When he was about to leave the factory, when he realized Eleanor's body was gone, Rose had appeared and told him to take his father's body back to her mother and promised to come with Eleanor unharmed. It had been two hours since then and it was now nighttime again and he was running low on patience.

He almost jumped out of his seat when Rose suddenly appeared in front of them with an unconscious Eleanor. They all stood up and made space for Rose to put her on the couch.

"Is she okay?" Tom asked

"Kyle, she needs your blood" he didn't have to be told twice, he bit his palm and put his hand on Eleanor's mouth. For a few seconds she was unresponsive until she started sucking on his palm.

After a while, she regained a bit of color on her face and her eyes fluttered open, she gazed at Kyle who was kneeling in front of her and Tom and Elvis who looked relived to see her breathing again.

"I'm so sorry," was the first words she muttered out of her mouth.

"Shh, its okay" Kyle assured her, planting a kiss on her lips, he was beyond relieved that she was okay and right there he wanted to cry. "Just get some rest, I will wake you up"

Eleanor nodded and drifted off to sleep, he remembered that she didn't know that his father was dead and all that had transpired after she had died. When he came back with Tom and his father's body, he was relieved to find that the other threat was taken care of, they came back to bodies burning in the back yard.

"I will go be with your mother," Rose said before she disappeared upstairs. Kyle carried Eleanor up to their room and put her to bed, then got in beside her, pulling her into his arms. They were both dirty, but he didn't care much, he was glad his mate was with him.

Kyle felt like he had slept for two minutes when he heard a knock on his door, he took his phone and looked at the time, he cursed when he realized it was one in the morning and he has to get ready to bury his father. The knock sounded again, and he slowly got out of bed, careful not to wake Eleanor who was still out.

When he opened, he found Brian, Ethan and Robert standing on the other side. He closed the door and pulled his brother into a tight hug, it was then that the reality of his father's passing hit him hard, he was trembling hard when a struggled sob left him. Brian shoulders also shook with silent sobs as the two brothers mourned their father. Ethan understood, how they felt, it was exactly how he felt when he lost James.

After they had shed their tears, the two brothers pulled apart from each other, "I should have been here" Brian muttered his voice horse

"Don't you dare blame yourself you hear me?" Kyle said fiercely to his brother, he didn't want either one of them blaming themselves for what happened with their father.

Brian merely nodded, "I'm going to check up on mother" and he was gone.

"I am sorry for your loose man," Ethan said pulling Kyle into a man hug.

Kyle nodded and gestured to the door behind him, "You can go in, she is still sleeping though"

"No, I will see her later, I know you want to be with her right now" Kyle nodded his head and turned to Robert.

"I'm so sorry man," Robert pulled his best friend into a hug.

"Thanks man. How is the wife and kids?" he asked with a small smile.

"They're good, we had two boys," Kyle was happy for his friend despite the tragedy that has befallen them.

"I'm happy for you,"

"Thanks man, we will be downstairs if you need us," He said clasping his shoulder one more time before him and Ethan made their way downstairs.

When he went back to their room, he found Eleanor up and staring at her hands on her lap, she looked up when she heard him come back.

"Who did we lose?" she asked as Kyle set beside her on the bed

"My father and a couple of other pack members,"

"Oh, Kyle I am so sorry" Her eyes teared up when she heard out the passing of Kyle's father, he had always been a good to her.

"It's okay baby we will move past this as well" he reassured her, pulling her into his arms.

"When is the burial?" She asked pulling out of his arms and wiping the tears that had fallen from her eyes.

"In two hours, we need to get ready," He gave her peck on the lips and got up and walked to their bathroom to start the shower.

Eleanor could feel that even though Kyle was glad that she was okay, he was still angry with her and she understood where he came from. What she had done was risky, but it had been necessary, Kyle had to understand that much.

With a sigh, she got out of bed and made her way to the bathroom, Kyle was already inside the shower, so she just took of her bloodied clothes and got in with him. He turned towards her when he heard her come in, he grabbed the body wash and squinted it on her shoulders before he started rubbing it all over her body with his hands. 

Eleanor did the same with him, they were both aroused, Eleanor nipples were standing hard and firm while Kyle's member was standing proud and hard, for a moment Kyle wanted to take Eleanor right then and there but he was afraid that she might still be in pain although she didn't have any wounds.

Eleanor could see that Kyle was having and internal battle with himself and she knew what it was all about because she was also feeling the same. Without overthinking things further, she pulled him down do a passionate kiss as the water cascaded their bodies.

Breaking from the kiss, she gazed into Kyle's blue eyes, "Don't overthink it"

Not waiting for further invitation Kyle lifted her and put her against the wall, he slid gently into her and rode her hard until they both found their release.

He let her down gently and kissed her hard, "You made me really mad, but I love you more than my own life"

Her heart clenched at his words, "I love you Kyle"

They proceeded to finish showering and, got out of the shower. Eleanor went to the closet and picked up a black tuxedo for Kyle and it was then she realized she didn't have anything to wear.

"What's going on?" Kyle asked coming out of their bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist.

"I don't have anything to wear in here," She told him

"I'll text one of my sisters to bring you something," as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

Kyle grabbed a t-shirt and put it over his naked chest before he went to open the door. He opened to find Zoe there with a black dress on a hanger and a pair of black heels, "Give this to Eleanor" she was still wearing her clothes from yesterday.

Kyle thanked her and closed the door; he handed the dress to Eleanor and the two of them got dressed in silence. The dress that Eleanor was wearing was black elbow-length dress, that hugged her figure and flowed loosely down just above her knees and had a lace detail. Her hair was still wet from the shower, so she just rolled in a bun on top of her head.

Kyle was dressed in a black tuxedo and a white dress shirt, he looked at Eleanor with appreciation before he pulled her in her arms and kissed her hard one last time before they went out.

"I need to go find Zoe and cover the dark circles under my eyes," she told him just as they were walking out of the room.

"I will go find my brother," he gave her a peck on the lips and the two of them went their separate ways.

When she got outside Zoe's room, she knocked on the door and Tom opened for her looking as handsome as ever in his back tux.

"Eleanor," he greeted

"Tom,"

"Come in, I'm on my way to find the guys," He stepped aside and gestured for her to come in before he left the room.

Zoe was sitting by the dressing table doing her makeup and looked up when Eleanor came closer to her, she stood up and pulled her cousin into a tight hug.

"I'm glad you're okay,"

"I'm glad you're fine too," Eleanor hugged her even tighter.

"Let me fix your face and let's get this done with," Zoe worked on her face in silence, she gave a simple look that just covered her dark circles and a mascara for her lashes and then they were done.

"How's the wound?"

"It's all healed up, that was one hell of painful stab," Eleanor teased

Zoe flinched as she thought of how it felt when she plunged the knife in her flash, "Yeah, I'm sorry about that"

"It's okay," Eleanor sighed, "Let's go bury the dead"

The made their way out and went downstairs where everyone was gathered, Eleanor had been dreading the moment she had to face everyone again, she felt partly at fault for every bad thing that had befallen everyone. When she got downstairs to the living room, however, she was greeted by small smiles and gracious bows as she passed her fellow elementals and she was grateful for the warm embrace.

She was surprised to see Ethan and Lucy among the people gathered and figured that they might have came back with Brian for the burial. After she had a few emotional moments with her brother, she went on to find Kyle's mother.

She found Kyle's mother and sisters further in the living room and offered her condolences, Kyle's mother gave her a tight hug and told her just how glad she was she was okay. She did try take a blame for the death of her husband, but Olivia assured her that it wasn't her fault.

When it was time to go, they all went to the river to and when they got there, there was five bodies which were to be laid to rest. The service started and when it was time for her to set the bodies alight, she had called Kyle and asked him to do it with her.

As they watched the bodies float away with heavy hearts, Eleanor was grateful to have Kyle next to her and was grateful for everyone who was gathered here today, they were all her family and at that moment she vowed to protect them with her life even if it means pissing off Kyle in the process.

It was time to go meet the people of the sea and protect the elements of her people and their lives and at that moment she looked to the skies and promised her grandparents that she will serve her people with everything she has.
