In his final moments, Sam smiled. It was the smile that Daren had always seen from Ivan.
"AAHHHHHH!!!!" Daren screamed at the top of his lungs and cried out after what he had done.
As his Alpha, Axel walked over to his lover and knelt down near the man. He closed Sam's open eyes and lifted his Omega's body from there.
Daren hugged Axel tightly, burying his face in the folds of his neck. He should have been happy, feeling pleased and victorious for killing Sam the way he wanted to.
But the feeling came back, all his memories with Sam when he was still pretending to be Ivan Howard kept spinning in his head.
Even though it was all a lie, Daren still felt happy that someone was filling his void by being his friend.
Wishing he never knew all the reality that felt like a nightmare, and remained good friends with Ivan.
"Sshhh... There's no need to cry. It's all over now, things will get better soon. Isn't this what you wanted?" Axel asked.
