Chapter 17

Cara's POV

It was very early in the morning—It was time to go. I didn't want to be the one always sacrificing, but I was going to get something out of it. Still, it didn't seem enough. I wanted to put myself before the whole pack, before Rollins. If there was a way to end those creatures, it was better to know now and do something about it.

I watched Rollins sleeping peacefully, and I couldn't stop the tears. I stood slowly from the bed; I could still feel him in me, and it might be like this for some time after the crazy night we had; I didn't mind that.

"Cara, are you okay?" He asked, always the light sleeper, and of course my little sobs woke him up.

"No," I responded, "I am not okay."

"What is wrong? You seemed fine just last night."

"I found out something. There was a way for me to stop these creatures; there is someone willing to help."

"And then I go with you."

"No, you can't; you have a pack to take care of."
