I stared at him for a long second, wondering whether I should allow him to see my true eye color and a piece of me. I think I can wait a little longer. “ What makes you think I would put myself through hell for the rest of my life with a pup who thinks that he is a good Alpha. What makes you think I would ever trust you or forgive you?”
Logan stared at me. Not sure of what to do, so he dropped his hand and looked at the floor. I could feel his wolf whimper on the bond. I looked down, and he was holding his chest as he spoke. “ You’re right,” his voice came out hoarse. “I'm not worthy.” He looked up, his eyes going silver, burning with the raw intensity of his honesty.
“But I'm still your alpha. And whether you forgive me or not … this bond means I'm responsible for you now.” He stood up and stepped back, giving me some space but not allowing me to leave yet. He sighs, realizing that he cant tell me what to do. ‘ Go. Run. See how long it takes before we both go insane.”
I sigh and relax my stance. Now it's time to stop hiding. I stood straight and looked at him, allowing the veil I had worn for so long to fall so he could see me. ‘ Responsible for me. Huh, funny, I have been responsible for myself since I was 10 years old, Logan. In the past few years have you even bothered to get to know the lowest of your pack or even realize the pain of 1 of your pack members as an Alpha should. How do you expect the pack and the world to respect you when you have no empathy?’
Logan could only stare when he truly saw me. My eyes changing to ice blue and my hair to midnight blue with ice white tips, my whole body finally on full view for all to see. Not an Omega but something else.
He flinched at my words. And then he spoke as in wonder but also in shame.’ Since you were 10 …’ his voice cracked,’ I really didn’t know …” he cut himself off, clenching his jaw.
