He ignited his hand and shot a flame towards xaviers torn up body wrapped in a white sheet. The flames engulfed him and his body slowly turned to ash.
I watched the smoke rise into the air and I pushed the anger out. I thought of the good things. Like his smile and how he used to smell.
Those things might be gone but they were the only positives I could find. Harper howled in my head. She wanted to stay angry because it hurt less, she was terrified of the pain from the bond but I think the bond is gone, she's not so sure yet.
I wanted to be angry too but I thought he deserved to have my love at this moment. I sighed as the fire burnt out and all that was left was his ashes. With it went my tears and a little part of my soul.
A strangled noise from the crowd brought me back to the moment. Ronnie runs towards me screaming.
"This is your fault! All your f*****g fault"
Brian moved so fast I didn't have time to process it until he had Ronnie by the throat hanging in the air.
"How f*****g DARE YOU! How f*****g dare you blame her"
I watched as he squeezed her throat so tight her face looked like a tomato. She scraped at his hands and her nails made him bleed.
Anger coursed through me and Harper. Who the hell is she to hurt what is ours! I grab his arm and he looks at me. I nod and he drops her. I took his hand and wiped the blood away, happy it was only a scratch but pissed that he got hurt in the first place.
She fell to the ground panting, holding her bruised neck. I stalked her. I looked at her with every ounce of hate that was eating me up from the inside out.
Harper growled a ferocious strangled growl. She froze on the ground in front of me as I grabbed her by the hair and yanked her to her feet.
"I warned you"
I said to her, My voice was strong. Deadly. She doesn't say anything so I raise my voice slightly
"Did I not f*****g warn you? ANSWER ME!"
"Y..y..ess"
"And what did you just do?"
"I'm sorry I'm just upset"
I laughed, throwing my head back. But this wasn't my laugh, this was a dangerous laugh.
"You're upset? YOUR f*****g UPSET? I just lost my mate! MY f*****g MATE! Then the only person that has been able to ease that pain stood by my side and you come up here claiming you're upset and in turn hurt his hand! You hurt BRIAN! You hurt what is MINE! AND NOW YOU f*****g PAY FOR IT"
Shit I just claimed him! In public what the f**k?
Harper
Because he is OURS!
Me
How is he
Harper
I don't know but he is OURS
Shocked gasps surround me as I claim Brian as my own. I take her by the throat
"Guards have her locked in the cellar and throw a bucket of wolfbane water over her everyday for a week, if she starts any trouble when I'm gone kill her"
Men came and dragged her away screaming. Brian stands forward between me and the crowd
"DOES ANYONE ELSE FEEL THIS WAY? If you do, now is the time to leave because I won't hesitate to kill you if anyone does anything to hurt her again"
"No beta"
Rang through the crowd. They all dropped to their knees and bared their neck to me. I gave them all a small smile.
"I need time to deal with the loss of the bond. My father Alpha Drake, Mother Luna lilly and Beta benji will be watching over you all until we return. You will show them the same respect as you show me and your beta"
"Yes alpha"
I swallowed the lump in my throat at that word. But ignored the feelings and nodded to them all and walked away taking Brian's hand in mine. We didn't say anything until we got into the house.
I turned around and slammed my body into his. He lifted me into his arms and cradled me. We sat at the table and I lay there looking over each of his features. Getting lost in his beautiful blue eyes. His hand took their place on my stomach rubbing calming circles around my belly button.
Food was served around us as the room filled up but I ignored the noise, I ignored everyone and everything around me just watching him. I never wanted to take my eyes off him again. I could get lost in them and when I'm there, nothing can hurt me. I'm invincible in his arms.
He held a piece of chocolate croissant to my lips and I ate it, then he held the coffee and helped me drink it, sharing the cup and taking a drink for himself after. We stayed like that until someone shook me. It was mum.
"Can I talk with you for a minute alone"
I furrowed my brows. I didn't want to leave the safety of Brian's arms. She smiled at me
"Only for a minute I promise. Brian needs to go get your bags anyway and make sure you have clothes for hot weather"
I nodded and looked at him. He smiled and nodded letting me up. Mum took my hand and led me out of the room and to the tv room. We sat down on the large sofa and she held both of my arms
"What is it mum?"
"I just want to ease the pain of the bond"
I furrowed my brows at her
"The bond is gone"
"It can't be. Just let me help"
She took my hands in hers. Her face contorted and she pulled away saying nothing
"What?"
I said to her worried about what she seen
"It's impossible? How?"
"What is it mum?"
Impatient with her
"Your right, the bond is gone. All that is left is anger at what he did. I don't understand it."
"Yeah like it never existed. It's horrible to say but I didn't come back that day because of him or the bond I came back because Brian asked me to."
Her eyes met mine and softened. She grabbed my hands again and closed her eyes. Brian walked in and I smiled at him. Mum pulled away and looked up at him. She gave him a huge grin
"You broke the bond. I don't know how it's possible or why it happened but you broke the bond and saved her. She could have died but somehow you broke that bond with something stronger. I'm not sure what it is but you're the reason she's alive. Your the reason she wants to live"
"She's the reason I want to live. I felt that the moment I met her"
Mum pulled me into a hug and she waved Brian over and hugged him too.
"I'm going to take the trauma away now. You will know it happened and you will always remember it but it won't affect you. You will be at peace because you found your happiness. You will know your safe. The pain will be all gone"
I felt it all leave. Everything she said is gone but not forgotten. I no longer held pain over what happened or even anger, I just felt at peace.
"Thanks mum"
I said feeling lightheaded with the loss of the trauma. He really had hurt me. This weightlessness feeling normally only happens when something so horrific happens that our subconscious is left to deal with it because we as people can't comprehend what was done to us.
"You look after her when you're both gone ok?"
"I will mum I promise"
Brian replied and made her smile. She pulled away and kissed my head then she kissed Brian's and stood up.
"Go say goodbye. The plane will be waiting on you"
I stood up and went to the kitchen, filling 2 travel cups with coffee and waving goodbye to everyone. James got up and came to me.
"I'm going to join you in a few days, iv just a few things to finish up first. I love you sis"
"I love you too. See you then"
He kissed my head followed by dad, caden and benji. They all patted Brian on the back and we left heading to the garage. I stopped when I saw all the cars and my bikes.
"Come on we will take this one, my turn to show you how to drive"
I giggled and climbed into the black Ford mustang. He pressed a button and the garage doors opened.
"Seatbelt"
I pulled it on excited to see him drive. I want to go fast. Extremely fast. He took off out of the garage and did a handbrake at the end of the driveway and into the dirt road taking off again with me screaming in shock in the passenger seat.
Brian laughed, catching my hand in his and holding it as he changed gears. He waved to patrols who let us out and he took off down the road like a maniac. My screams turned to cheers as he drove like a crazy person on a mission to die.
He drifted on every corner and put his foot down flying towards the highway passing in and out of cars.
"This is AMAZING! How can you go this fast and scream like a baby on a bike"
He chuckles loudly. The sound alone made me happy. The sound surrounds me and squeezes my heart like a hug.
It doesn't take long to get to the airport when he drives like that and soon we climb on and buckle up. He's never too far from me. Always close by, always watching me. We decided on watching grown ups 2 first then when we were in the air I turned it off and got up and held my hand out to him.
We were on the small plane. I preferred this one a lot better unless the entire family came with us. If they weren't it just felt too big and ghostly. I pulled him to the bedroom and he raised his eyebrow
"This place is cool i've never been on a private plane before"
"Yeah this is the small one. The other one is huge. It has 3 bedrooms and loads of bunk beds. I like this one the best"
"Your turn to pick something to watch"
I hand him the remote and pull my hoodie off, then my trousers. I pull his off too, as well as his T-shirt and he just chuckles at me.
"What I like it when your chest is bare. It's warmer"
"I don't mind I like skin to skin"
I smile and climb into the bed. He gets in after me and pulls me into his chest and he puts on Halloween. I grin. I love this movie. I try to get comfortable but I can't and decide to throw my T-shirt off.
He averts his eyes and I chuckle then climb in between his legs and use him as a pillow and pull the blanket up over us. His hands rest on my stomach drawing a little design.
I sink into him enjoying the feeling of being in his arms. Skin on skin. A sense of peace flows through me and before I even realise it Harper starts to purr like a darn kitten through my lips.
Brian chuckles and pulls me tightly and rests his head on mine and soon his wolf haden starts to purr too.
"Our wolves really like each other"
I sat quietly.
"Yes. Hadens happy because you claimed him"
"And how do you feel about that?"
"I'm happy to"
I smile, happy he was ok with what I said, and I turn slightly so my ear is by his heart. He's hands run up and down my back relaxing me and soon the gentle drum of his heart Luls me to sleep.
————
I watch as they hold him in front of me and I cry as they slowly rip him apart in front of me. The noise of flesh tearing makes my eardrums hurt but as the pain comes it's much worse than before. This isn't just unbearable. It's indescribable. As I look into his face I realise why. It isn't Xavier, it's Brian. My world falls apart and I scream as my heart and soul is torn from my chest and Pierced with a million acid full needles.

Brian's POV
She claimed us in front of the entire pack and it felt like every organ jumped and flipped with joy. But she was hurting so I couldn't concentrate on my happiness I had to make sure she was ok because she has dealt with enough
She showed me around the plane and I was shocked. We ran a security company and we didn't really have much to do with it other than sign paperwork here and there and we were well off between that and the pack town businesses
Megan was probably a millionaire now that Xavier was dead. Everything will be handed over to her but even still we never traveled so to spend my time with her on a private plane was amazing.
I lay on the bed and chuckled as she tried to get comfortable and I held my breath when she threw off her top. She had the most amazing breasts but I couldn't look at them like that. Not yet anyway.
She needed time and I needed to give it to her. But soon she sighs and finds her spot between my legs and Harper starts to purr
Haden
She loves us too
Me
You think she loves us
Haden
She claimed us in front of the pack. Harper wouldn't do that if she didn't love us. Just listen to that purr
I relaxed and soon haden was purring too. She shifted in my arms and rested her head over my heart like she mostly always did when she slept. Soon I heard her soft snores so I closed my own eyes and gave into the exhaustion.
When I woke up we had our legs tangled and over each other. I held her body in my arms and her face was still over my heart. I sat there just enjoying the closeness and trying my very best to not enjoy the feeling of her boobs pressed up against me.
My bladder was calling me and telling me I needed to move so I begrudgingly got up and went to the bathroom. But while I was finishing up I heard that scream again. The scream from the other night but this scream was even worse. Even more potent than the other night.
Iv never moved so fast in my entire life not even having a chance to dry my hands after I washed them. I sprinted to her and her scream got louder
"Nooooo Brian no not Brian please noooooo"
I jumped into the bed and pulled her into my arms
"Ssssssh baby I'm here, I'm here, I'm so sorry I went to the bathroom but I'm back now I'm sorry. Please wake up"
Her soft sobs broke my heart as she took a breath like she was holding it. She jumped up in my arms and her eyes found mine. Her hands found my face
"It was a dream. You're alive, you're alive. Oh Brian you can't leave me. I can never lose you not ever"
"It was a dream and I'm going nowhere"
Then she did something totally unexpected and she kissed me. This wasn't a soft kiss, this was a desperate kiss full of need. I kissed her back, tangling my hands in her hair and pulling her closer to me.
We might not be mates but we are something. Something stronger than that and this kiss told it all.
She tasted like the most amazing vanilla ice cream with a hint of lavender. The feel of her tongue brushing against my own was so raw and real. It's like all her emotions were mine and mine were hers.
My blood felt like it moved and reacted with her own. Not tingles but something even better. My hands felt like they exploded with goosebumps as she poured her heart and soul into this kiss and I moaned as a feeling of weightlessness washed over me making me feel complete.
She pulled away. Her lips were swollen and red. She gasped looking at her hands and then back at me and she cried. But not sad tears. No, these were happy tears because I could feel it.
She took my hand in hers and my blood danced under her touch and she grinned, turning it around and showing me a tattoo that had appeared. I frowned and looked at it.
"It's an Ailm bond. That's the reason you broke the bond. Only the Ailm bond could break it. You're the other half of me. We are 2 parts of one soul"
I studied our hands and looked at her. I could feel her. I chuckled and pounced on her, smashing my lips to hers. She giggled and kissed me back, wrapping her arms around me and her legs around my waist.
Harper and harden where howling in happiness as I pulled back and held her face in my hands
"I love you. I love you so damn much and I'm never leaving you. Your mine and I'm yours and we are forever"
Tears ran down her cheek
"You die I die"
"I wouldn't survive in this world without you anyway so if death takes us together I'll die happy"
She kissed me again and I moaned as our blood danced under our skin reacting to each other's touch. She pulled back and held her neck and hissed.
"What is it"
I grabbed my own neck feeling her pain. I moved her hand away and the mark on her neck bubbled and dissolved
"Your mark it's dissolving"
"I can't belong to anyone else once the bond is in place. It's forever. It's stronger than the mate bond. When the bond is in place the Ailm mark does not share"
"So you really are mine forever?"
I said to her happily. Happier than I've ever been. Tears run down her face and she grins
"Yes we are forever"
I rest my head on hers
"When we go back home your going to take over as alpha"
I pulled back and studied her face.
"Why? You can still be alpha I don't need to be"
"Because I don't want to be alpha. You are alpha now and I'd much rather be your Luna."
Harden
Don't argue with her or upset her, you try and il f*****g kill you. If she wants us to be alpha we will be alpha even if you don't want it
I chuckle and Megan shakes her head
"Don't be so mean, harden. It's ok to say no it won't hurt me"
I laugh, amazed that she could hear him.
Harden
Don't care if he upsets you. I'll sing the most annoying song of all times over and over again as loud as I possibly can. I will make his life hell
Megan snorts in laughter, making me chuckle as well.
"If you want me to be alpha I will be. I'll be whatever you want me to be"
"Do you want to be a cook cause I'm starving"
She answered back with her eyebrow in the air. I chuckled and threw her a T-shirt and she groaned
"I don't want to wear a shirt"
"Oh your wearing a shirt when in public no one is going to ogle this body because it's MINE"
Her cheeks went red and I pulled her into my arms and squeezed her amazing ass and I kissed my fated mate. Enjoying the feel of our lips touching. Everything finally made sense. I took one last sniff of her amazing lavender scent and let her go with a peek on the lips
I handed her her bottoms and I pulled mine on and as I was about to leave
"Ehh hell no if I wear a shirt so do you. One of the pilots are female"
Harden
Hahahahahahaha
Harper
I'll bite him if he walks out there with a naked chest
Megan giggled as I pulled on a T-shirt and left for the kitchen to make some sandwiches and coffee.

Megan's POV
It all finally made sense. Why the thought of Xavier made my skin crawl. My attitude to his death. It made me feel a little guilty but I know from what Gran has told me over the years that the Ailm fated bond would have eventually pulled in place and my bond to Xavier would have dissolved.
But now it made sense and I was so relieved that I wouldn't ever need to live through his death because I knew it would be much worse than xaviers.
With Xavier it was bad and it made me want to die but when he held me the Ailm fated bond got stronger and broke the mate bond.
That pain would have killed me because I would have killed myself but when Brain took me in his arms that was enough for the bond we shared to click into place. I took the moment to link my mum
Me
Mum you there?
Mum
I'm here baby are you ok?
