"I can't promise all of you will live tonight. In fact I apologize for what we are all about to face. But don't think for one moment that you won't kill them because they are stronger. They are know longer the men you knew, they are heartless and won't hesitate to kill you. And you will do the same, just as I trained you." Gabriel says to the 50 men standing before him as Mark and I stand beside him.

"Do you know where they are?" Mark asks Gabriel who nods his head.

"They're waiting for us." He says and Mark clenches his jaw and nods his head.

"We'll have to run without shifting they'll attack whenever and being in the middle of changing back won't stop them. Shift only if it is necessary!" Gabriel yells again and we all start running.

The run was good for me, it fueled my anger and helped me imagine every way I could tear Desiderius apart.

All together we don't take that long to follow Gabriel to where they were all waiting. It's around 3 in the morning now, soon the sun will rise and we'll have an advantage over Desiderius.

We reach the place where Selene took me to find Ada, a dead field with one single decaying tree in the middle, the entire area reeks of death and remains completley silent until I see movement in the distance on both sides of the tree. I feel my fangs extend in anger when I see Desiderius exiting the tree and to my horror not only does he have Ada by his side but he is pushing my mother before him by holding the back of her neck, she whimpers but smiles when she sees me and I notice a few cuts on her face and it takes every ounce of my will power not to run over there and save her.

"Well this night certainly took an interesting turn didn't it Ada?" He says and looks over at her, she doesn't reply, her eyes look entirely black and she sways slowly back and forth, he has her completley under his control.

"I'll give you one last chance Gabriel. Join me and we can end every pack in existence just like we did when we were young. We'll slaughter anyone who gets in our away, everything will be just as it was. I promise." Desiderius extends his other hand and Gabriel takes a step forward and shakes his head.

"No. It won't." The wolves beside him start growling just as the eyes glow of the wolves beside Desiderius who shakes his head as well.

"I can't save you then." He sighs and looks at my mother for a moment. And what feels like a stab through my heart I watch him sink his teeth into her neck as she cries out and drains her to the point of death.

"No!!" I scream and without thinking I start running as do the wolves behind me and every hybrid before us. I watch him drop my mother and before I even make it six feet in front of him the wind is knocked out of me as one of his hybrids tackles me and we roll in the dirt before standing and facing each other. His name is Henry, we were trained together as young wolves.

"Feeling sentimental?" He laughs and charges at me and I don't hesitate to extend my claws and dig them deep into his stomach, he grunts and looks at me, I see fear in his eyes. I yell moving my hand up spilling his guts and blood onto me and soaking into the earth before I start running again. Ada stands motionless beside Desiderius who smiles as he watches the battle before him. To my frustration just when I think I am about to reach him, two hybrids stop me. I try my best to cut them up but they are too quick and one of them wraps their arm around my neck as the other grabs my feet tight.

"Let's spill his guts over his mother!!" The one holding my neck says and I struggle even more as they begin slowly pulling me apart. But I hear a loud groan behind me and my neck is released, I don't hesitate to sink my claws into the chest of the one holding my feet and pull his heart out, I look behind me to see who saved me and find Gabriel with blood covered hands.

"We can't afford to lose you pup. You have to get to Ada. Get her to snap out of it. Leave Desiderius to me." He says and I nod my head and start running with him. 17 men was no joke, these hybrids had already left such a bloody mess of the men we brought with us but we were still lowering their numbers slowly. They begin to focus more on stopping Gabriel and I but I won't stop. Every now and then I get a glimpse of Ada's lifeless eyes and it encourages me to keep going, I can't die she'll live the rest of her life with him like that, alone and lost.

I cut through the stomach of another hybrid and Gabriel tears the heart out of another before finally tackling Desiderius. Ada hisses as she watches them fight but I catch her attention immediately and she extends her fangs at me and crouches down ready to attack.

"Ada please!" I yell and she screams and runs at me but only scratches my face which stings horribly.

"Ada!" I yell and again she charges at me hard and I feel one of my ribs crack making me gasp for air.

"A..da" I cough and look over to see a bloody Gabriel struggling to fight Desiderius.

"He...doesn't love you. Not like..I do." I squeeze my eyes shut and force myself to stand. She growls lowly and completley ignores what I say.

"Ada Warren...that's the woman I love. You are-" she hisses interrupting me and scratches my face again making me growl loudly.

My eyes find their way to my mother's body standing a few feet away from us and I notice her slowly breathing and I start limping towards her. Ada yells as she pushes me down straight onto my back and stands above me growling lowly.

"Kill him! Kill him Ada.!!!" I hear Desiderius yell and I look up to see both Mark and Gabriel are now fighting him and struggling. Ada kneels down slowly towards me and when I try to reach for her she smacks my hand away and I feel my eyes burning with tears, I failed I can't save her not from what he's done to her.

"You would die for love?" She asks and my heart aches at just how beautiful she is even if she wants to kill me.

"I would die for the woman I love...and I'd let her kill me right now...do it." I encourage her and she slowly brings her head towards my neck and I close my eyes. She places her cold hand on my chest and I grunt as she sinks her teeth in my vein and I feel my blood pour into her mouth in large gulps, I can barely feel my legs now and soon my fingertips become numb and my vision begins to blur. I feel nothing when she pulls away and lets out the most loudest heartbreaking sob from her mouth and places both of her hands on my chest.

"Isaac?? Isaac?!" Her voice sounds distorted, I watch the moon become blurry and my eyes become heavier and pretty soon I could no longer keep them open.

The moment that first drop of wolf's blood hit my tongue I knew I wouldn't be able to stop, it caressed every part of me, awakened every nerve and set my body on fire. But most of all it gave me back my humanity. I recognized Isaac first and I wanted to stop but I couldn't as more pieces of who I was came back to me. I was Ada Warren. I was the daughter of Elizabeth and Cornelius Warren, I had a sister and a brother. And Desiderius did not save my life, he cursed me, raped me, tortured me and I owe him nothing. I throw my head back and scream out in pain of all the loss I felt in my life and look down at my now dying mate.

"Isaac?! Isaac??" I shake his chest but he doesn't respond to me, he's ice cold.

"Come back! Come back don't leave me!!" I shake harder and I hear a cough coming from a few feet away from us, his mother.

"No..no no no!" I sob and run over to her and have her face me, she's even colder and blinks rapidly at me barely keeping her eyes open.

"I'm sorry...it wasn't me. I wasn't in control!" I sob and her shaky hand grabs my own hand.

"Save...him. Save my son." She whispers and her eyes stop blinking, her grip loosens and I no longer hear her heartbeat. I let out another sob and let my tears fall onto her. I hear a struggle behind me and stand and watch Desiderius fight Gabriel and Mark.

"Help me! Ada! Come!" He yells as Mark cuts him deeply across his back. Rage burns inside me as I walk slowly over to him and watch him grab Mark by his neck and throw him half way across the field. As Gabriel is distracted he grabs him by the neck and lifts him high into the air.

"You can have the honors my love. End him." Desiderius says as I stand behind him, Gabriel looks at me in terror.

"Oh I will." I say and don't hesitate to dig my hand straight through Desiderius' back making him let go of Gabriel immediately who falls to the ground coughing.

Desiderius turns his head to face me and the look of betrayal in his eyes makes me smile.

"I...loved you." He chokes out and yells in pain when I wrap my hand around his heart.

"Burn in hell." I say and grunt as I use extreme force to draw his heart out of his body and let him crumble to his knees and fall face forward into the dirt finally defeated.

"Ada?" Gabriel chokes out and I nod my head squeezing his heart in my hand before dropping it.

"Isaac!" Gabriel yells and I turn around and stare at him and faintly hear his slow heart beat and run over to him.

"He can't die! I won't let him!" I cry out and hold his face in my hands.

"He won't make it back to the pack, there's nothing we can do for him here." Gabriel says and I shake my head and lift Isaac's upper body into my arms and extend my fangs but just before I bite into my wrist Gabriel stops me.

"He wouldn't want that life!! You would never be able to change him back!" He yells and I break my hand away from his hold.

"I won't live without him." I state and bite into my wrist and let my blood pour into his mouth.

"Drink...Isaac please." I whisper holding my wrist harder against his mouth. He doesn't respond to my blood and I begin to cry slowly.

"The sun is going to rise soon. We have to get you out of here." Gabriel says and I shake my head.

"I'll die with him I'm not leaving!!!" I scream and feel other wolves gathering behind us, all the hybrids have been killed.

"Please...Isaac I love you." I sob and watch his throat twitch. Soon his lips move a little and his hands grab my arm tight spilling more blood into his mouth.

"That's it! Keep drinking!" I smile down at him and watch as his eyes open looking pitch black before flashing a bright blue color.
