Chapter Forty–Eight

I jerked to face her and the glow was gone, but as soon as I turned my head and faced Ronnie, I could see a faint glow around a chain on her neck.

I pulled the pliers, and she screamed and passed out. Ronnie rushed over, but I slapped a hand over my mouth.” What’s wrong?” Ronnie started to hover, and I doubled over and started howling in laughter. “What?”

“Is she really insane?” Beck whispered to Ronnie, which just made me laugh harder, Tears were streaming down my face when I looked up at Ronnie, who was still hovering over me and Aurora.

“Amy, talk to me.” Ronnie knelt and grabbed my face, but was still trying to catch my breath.

“She.” I started, but I coughed as more laughter bubbled up. “She fainted.”

“We see that. Most she–wolves can’t stand torture Amy.” Ronnie grimaced.

“She probably passed out because of the pain of you ripping out her nail.” Beck tossed out.

“But I didn’t.” Lraised the empty pliers and her untouched hand. “She just fainted. From fear.”

Both men froze and looked from the pliers to her hand and then to the passed out Aurora. They both started chuckling as I replaced the pliers on the table and then came back to the unconscious woman. I pushed her head back so that I could look at her neck. I pulled her necklaces from her tank top. I picked through them until one caught my eye.

It was a white gold necklace that looked familiar. The chart was a wolf, howling in front of a jewel moon. This one was emerald. I pulled out my necklace and compared them side by side. One was emerald, and one was sapphire.

My birthday was in September. My mom made this necklace for me for my sixteenth birthday and I haven’t taken it off since. She kept the tradition going from when her parents gave her hers, on her sixteenth birthday, in May. “What are you doing?” Beck’s voice jolted me back.

“This is my mothers.” I whispered softly as I unclipped the necklaces around Aurora’s neck and dropped the rest into her lap.

“How can you be so sure?” Ronnie came over and froze. “That is your mothers.”

“How do you know?” Beck came over and looked at the necklace in my hand. “Just because they both match doesn’t mean it’s your mothers.”

“That necklace never left Ainsley’s neck.” Ronnie grabbed it from my hand and flipped it over “Until the day your father took it from her.”

“My dad took it?” I looked from the necklace to his face.

“Right before their anniversary. He wanted to engrave it, but then he came back and you know what happened. He kept it and added to the engraving.” Ronnie flipped it over and handed the necklace back to me.

“I love yo

you to the moon and back in this life and the rest. Forgive me.” I looked up and I knew my face was confused.

“That’s what they used to say to each other. ‘I love you to the moon and back‘. They thought it was funny because They are wolves.” Ronnie shook his head. “They thought they were hilarious. Stupid. But when your dad lived his second life and came back, he knew he would love your mother kin all of his lives. So he added the last part. And he thought once he explained everything, he would beg her for her forgiveness. But…” Ronnie looked back down at the necklace.

“But he never went back.” I finished, and Ronnie nodded. “How did Aurora get this necklace?”

“I honestly don’t know. Your dad left it in her office. He would stare at it for hours as he sat that the desk, breathing in her scent. He always ended up in there after one of the nights your mother…”
