Chapter 523: The beginning of the end
Alanis
I see how hard this is for Beau.
I wish I could do or say something to make this better for him but I also know that this is something he has to come to terms with on his own.
Fallon will forever be his family, no matter what he has done. I understand that but this decision that he has made is needed.
It is the only way that we will have peace.
Everything happens so fast.
After his visit to Fallon, he came back to the room bawling his eyes out. I don’t know what happened down there but I know that it wasn’t easy for him. A couple of hours after his breakdown, he called a meeting.
All the Alphas are in the room. This is one thing I have always hated about the pack. They are having a meeting about something very important and they are choosing to segregate the betas and omega. It makes no sense to me, they should all be included in this discussion.
I don’t want to go over Beau right now because this is how it has always been. He grew up with things like this and this is not the time to implement this change because this is already hard for him.
Everyone should be here.
They should all know.
"About damn time,’’ Olin speaks up after Beau. There is a smile on his face, the excitement evident. They all seem happy about this decision and I get that completely. I am on board with this even though I don’t actually believe in ending someone’s life. It is not something I believe in but this time, I feel it is necessary.
"When is this happening, I think we shouldn’t sleep on it? He has been in the community for too long,’’ One of the other members in the pack speaks up.
They are all eager to do this.
"I don’t want this to be painful, I want him to die peacefully,’’ Beau says and I feel the dread etched in his voice.
Beau has no hate in his heart. He is the most selfless person I have ever met. This man killed his father, in cold blood. He is supposed to be angry, he is supposed to want to give him the same fate. I know that feeling of vengeance. The old Beau would have been that way but something has changed in him.
He is different.
The anger that he once couldn’t control is calm and controlled.
I like that for him. If that isn’t growth, then I don’t know what is. I can see the sadness in him but also I can see the happiness that he is finally at peace with himself. He has accepted himself and in doing so, he has achieved the kind of love that we have always wanted for him.
I am good with this.
"He needs to suffer. This is his punishment." Fig, a member interrupts him. I watch Beau as he takes a deep breath. Right now, he doesn’t need anyone that is going to oppose him. He has made his decision and I know that he is going to stick to it.
"I am doing this my way, my decision is final," he tells him sternly and I can’t help but smile at how amazing he is right now.
"Alby, I need you to help me with something, anything that can make this less painful,’’ he adds, his direction now on Alby.
"Okay,’’ he says calmly. This is something he would be able to do with ease. I am on the same page with Beau. I don’t think he should do this in a gruesome way. Fallon deserves everything and more but at the same time, for Beau’s conscience. This needs to be as painless as possible. Alby stands up from the chair and I watch him as he walks over to my Link.
"When do you want to do this son?’’ he asks him.
Beau takes a deep breath and then his eyes dart to me. I see that look in his eyes, the one where he is crying for me. I wish I could hold him right now but I know that he has to be strong.
He is the Alpha, he needs to do this on his own.
"Tonight, is that possible?’’ he asks him as he slowly looks away from me. Alby nods his head immediately and smiles.
"This is the best decision, we have to let everyone know that if anyone tries to hurt the Alpha, they will get punished."
As the words leave Alby’s lips, I can feel the power in the room. The room is already on his side and they are all eager to do this.
"We are going to get everything ready, the pack need to know what is going on. Inform everyone. There is no pushing this decision.’’
Alby is the first person to leave the room and the rest of the people follow him. I watch as the crowd disperses and the noisy room becomes quiet. I am left with Beau and I watch him as he settles on the couch with a heavy sigh. I walk over to him and he looks up instantly.
He stretches his hands out for me and I grab his hands, gently pulling them towards me.
"Hey," he says to me softly. He leans his head against me and I feel the sadness seep through me.
"You did good,’’ I tell him as he pulls me into his laps. I wrap my arms around his neck and he rests his head on my chest.
"Why does it feel so wrong?’’ he asks me.
I don’t have the answer to his question because this is just him feeling the guilt of making the decision. He will come to terms with his decision and even though he hasn’t already, this is a good first step.
"You don’t have to think about anything right now. Let’s just get through tonight...together.’
He nods and then leans forward and presses his lips to mine gently. The kiss is innocent, nothing but a search for reassurance. I feel the pain within him. I hold him for a hug and he tightly holds me back.
Tonight is the beginning of the end.
