Blackfeather Woods This should have happened ages ago

Burke's mind had to think from which female Sebastian was coming from, but he remembered soon enough when Sebastian mentioned that she had loved him. Dalia. She had always been devoted to him alone. Her loyalty had been admirable but she was a foolish girl really. He had been a fool too, to not think of the outcome that would later unfolded. "Of course I did not love her," Burke returned, probably only firing up the fuel even more. "So she died huh? She did not die because of me. She was perfectly alive when I left. She was a fool really." Clearly Sebastian and the same dream like beliefs she had.

Burke ground his teeth together at all his questions. "I wanted to keep you alive because it was the right thing to do. I am not like Darius. He was the one that only liked power, he was the one that did nothing. I had to do everything to keep the pack running with five females and their pups needing food and protection. In the meanwhile Darius still though he deserved the alpha title and fought me over it. There was no free time for me. I had no energy to spend to all those pups, including you. I hated my life so once most of the pups were old enough I left. I chose for me and that might be selfish in your eyes. But I praise the day I left that poisonous place!," he growled. "You portray me as the villain in your life but I am not. You're delusional." Yes, he made a mistake but he did try to make up for it. There had been no working with Darius. He was the one that had gone rogue, the one that dragged Burke along with him in his mistakes.
