Wind Carved Names Into Silence by Zex Hollow 139

Bonnie 

After I left the shed and left my entire family behind to die Will took me to the lounge room in the pack house where Lily, Sophie, 

Rosie, and Lottie were all sitting around and talking. There are several guards outside of the room and I understand why. These men are 

protective of their mates and they needed to know that their mates would be safe while they were busy with their guests. As soon as Will 

knew that I was ok he said his goodbyes and headed back to the shed. I know that he was eager to get back to those assholes and not 

miss anything so I made sure not to keep him any longer than necessary. 

For a little while, I just sat there thinking over everything. I saw my entire family tied up and didn’t feel anything. I knew that they were going to die painfully and I didn’t feel anything. I saw my entire family for the last time and I didn’t feel anything, not any of the 

emotions that I should have anyway. No anger, no sadness, nothing. 

If I had to pick a word to describe how I was feeling I would say relieved and that’s a hard pill to swallow because I feel like I should feel like a bad person for feeling that way, for knowing that all of my family will die at any second and all that I feel is relief but I don’t 

feel bad about it, not even a little. 

Time seems to drag while we sit around and wait to hear any news. The other ladies manage to keep up a conversation but I can’t. I nod and answer any questions they ask but I can’t tell you half of what they are talking about. My mind is on Nicholas and what’s happening right now. At some point, Lily leaves the room but again I dont even ask any questions. I just feel numb, lost and more than 

ready to have this all done with. 

My mind briefly wonders to Lottie and how incredibly well she handled confronting her mother. I was worried that as soon as she was away from that bitch that she would break down but so far there’s been nothing. Nothing that we have heard about anyway. Of course, it could happen at any time and if it does then she has a sea of people all standing behind her ready to hold her up and get her through it, but right now she seems perfectly fine, from what the girls have said she seems somewhat lighter even. Maybe she needed to confront her more than I thought. Maybe it won’t be a hard hit for her. Maybe just maybe, it was exactly what she needed. 

Lily soon returns but doesn’t say a word about where she has been and I can’t help but feel like something has happened I decide not to question her in front of the others in case it’s personal but I will be asking her later. I’m not sure how long we’ve been in this room but it feels like hours and I can’t just sit around anymore. “I’m going to go for a walk, I’ll see you ladies later.” 

“Do you want me to come with you?” Lily asks seeming worried but she doesn’t need to be. “I’m fine, Lil but thank you for the offer. I’m just going to take a walk while I wait for Nicky. I’ll speak to you later.” She nods while smiling before going back to talking to the others. As I shut the door behind me I turn and walk into a wall of muscle. 

“You ok, Bon?” I look up to find Tony staring down at me looking worried. If he’s here then that means that they must be finished so where is Nick? As if he can read my mind he answers me before I even have a chance to say anything. “He’s fine. I imagine he’s gone for a shower before coming to find you, but I promise he is fine.”
