Chapter 524: Moving on

Beau

Alby comes up with a concoction. Something he made with leaves and other remedies. I have only ever known Alby to make things that heal, now he is helping me with a kill remedy

I hate this so much and I am trying to come to terms with it all. It is hard for me. I have Alanis by my side and he has been such a good companion. I wouldn’t trade him for anyone else. The fact that I don’t have to go through this on my own just makes it easier.

He hasn’t pushed me too much. He has been so supportive. There is no pressure when it comes to him and I guess that is the one thing that has made me accept it all.

The Alphas in the pack all dived in, immediately I made the announcement. This is what they wanted. I remember when Fallon was in the community. somehow, they were all on his side.

It didn’t take them too long to switch on him. Sometimes it makes me wonder how long they would be on my side. I have tried to be a good Leader. I am doing my best but at the same time, I could make mistakes.

I don’t want to end up like my father. He trusted the wrong person and it ended his life. The only person I trust in the community is Alanis. He is the only one that I will give my all. The only one that I would ever let see me vulnerable.

That is why I have to keep a brave face in front of everyone here.

We are outside.

There is a crowd of people.

Olin suggested that we do this public. So that everyone can see the consequences of treachery. I don’t know if this is what I want but at the same time, showing people that they would be reprimanded for their actions might be a good thing. Even though this just makes me seem like a tyrant.

Executing him in public.

I don’t know how I feel about this.

I watch two Betas drag him to the middle of the field and in front of me. This is barbaric and suddenly I don’t know why I agreed to this public execution. I should have just done this indoors.

Fallon is dressed in a pair of shorts, and nothing else. Fallon was always a big guy, over six feet, with muscles that made him look more intimidating than he really was. Right now, he has lost so much weight, all the muscles that once defined his body have disappeared.

He is still tall but looks nothing like he used to. His face is thin and haggard. His eyes are hollow.

It looks like he is already gone.

I see a rock flying and it hits him in the head. I turn to the crowd but I can’t pinpoint who it is. Blood starts to stream from the hit and I shake my head, slowly standing up from the chair.

"Who threw that,’’ I ask sternly.

No one answered but I hear their murmurs.

"I will not tolerate the disrespect, this is not an execution,’’ I shout to the crowd. I have accepted my decision but I don’t want this done this way.

I don’t want him to die in front of everyone.

I don’t want to start something so barbaric.

"We are not doing this here anymore. This will not become normal among us. I will not let us treat people this way." I turn to Olin "Take him back inside, we will do this inside the prison."

I walk away from the crowd and I feel Lanis’s footsteps follow me. I walk into the house and stop in front of the door. "What do you want to do?" he asks.

I sigh deeply. I am so conflicted because I don’t want to look weak in front of the pack. Maybe my reaction made me look weak.

I don’t even know.

I just reacted first before I thought about it.

"You are not wrong Beau. You don’t have to make it public. This is not something that people should see. I think you made the right call. It would be better to just end it all in private.’’

I look up at him and there is a serious expression on his face. He takes a step forward and grabs my hand in his, gently squeezing all the pressure out of it "Don’t break down right now. Show them that you are the Alpha, do this the right way. Don’t let words convince you otherwise." He gives me a reassuring smile and opens the door with my hand still in his. He didn’t have to ask me twice.

We go back outside and there are still a few people loitering around but not as much as they were seconds ago.

Lanis leads me to the prison and we go all the way to the basement, where Fallon is. I see Alby, Olin, and some of the other Alphas. Somehow, they all still want to see this.

Fallon looks up at me and his eyes are hollow and empty. Alby is the closest to him. He is not tied up.

There is nothing stopping him from fighting back but he is already too weak. I think he has no fight left in him.

He is almost down to his last breath. This is the man that killed my father. Looking at him now, he doesn’t even look worthy. He is not an opponent that I want to think about. After tonight, I need to let this go. Keep this in my past, the place it belongs, and never think about it again.

I don’t ever want to remember Fallon and the things that he did.

"Are we ready for this?’’ Alby asks me.

I nod immediately because the sooner we get this over with, the better.

Moving on is all I want to do.

All I need to do.
