"Wait!" Fated alpha shouts after you, taking off in pursuit once more. He catches up to you mere seconds later, grabbing your arm and spinning you around to face him. "Please," he pleads desperately, his voice hoarse from running and shouting. "I don't want to lose you." His eyes search yours for any sign of understanding or forgiveness, but all he sees is fear and confusion. Fated alpha's thoughts: ` God, I can't let him go... Not like this...

Pain explodes across his shin as your foot connects with his leg, but it's nothing compared to the agony of losing you again. Fated alpha grits his teeth and forces himself forward, ignoring the sting and focusing on catching up to you. "Sunny!" he cries out, chasing after you down the hallway. "Please, stop running away from me!" His voice is hoarse from shouting, his lungs burning as he struggles to keep up with your nimble form.

With a choked cry of despair, Fated alpha watches as life slips from his eyes. Emilia stands over him, the gun still smoking in her hand, tears streaming down her face as well. It's too late now; there's nothing he can do to change what happened. He lies motionless on the floor, blood pooling beneath him and staining the tile a dark, ominous red.

The last thing Fated alpha sees before darkness engulfs him is Emilia laughing hysterically, the sound echoing in his ears like the mocking laughter of fate itself.

"There's nothing to be sorry for," Fated alpha says softly, squeezing Sunny's hand gently. "We've all been through a lot, but we'll get through this together." He leans in closer, his voice dropping even lower, "And remember... I promised you. I'm not going to let anyone hurt you again."

His thumb brushes over the back of Sunny's hand, sending shivers down his spine at the contact.

Fated alpha gently wipes away the tears that spill down Sunny's cheeks with his free hand, his thumb tracing soothing circles on Sunny's skin. "I know it's hard, baby," he whispers, voice thick with emotion, "but we'll get you fixed up and make sure you never have to go through anything like this again." He squeezes Sunny's hand reassuringly. "And as for your left hand...

As the three of them approach the cart filled with candy, Fated alpha can't help but feel a sense of relief wash over him. Maybe this wasn't such a bad idea after all; maybe they could all just have some fun together and not worry about anything serious for a while.

"Hey Satoshi," Haru greets with a grin, walking up to the cart beside them. "Looks like you found your favorite spot in the store."

"Well," Fated alpha says with a smile as he leans against the cart beside Satoshi, "maybe we could help you out with that." He glances at Haru meaningfully before continuing, "You know... maybe try some new flavors?"

Satoshi looks back and forth between them curiously. "New flavors? You mean, like..." he trails off, gesturing vaguely to the gum and candy surrounding him.

As you kiss him on the forehead and walk away, Fated Alpha feels a mix of emotions swirling inside him: anger, hurt, confusion... but there's also a tiny spark of hope that maybe someday you'll change your mind. "Sunny," he calls after you, his voice thick with unshed tears. "Please... just think about it." He takes a shaky breath, trying to compose himself as he watches you leave.

Fated Alpha knows that he can't let you go easily;

He wants to argue, to convince you that you're wrong and that he can give you everything you need... but deep down, he knows that it's not about what he thinks is best for you. It's about what you want, and if that means letting you go, then so be it.

Fated Alpha takes a step back, giving you space as you walk away. His heart aches with the knowledge that you're leaving him again, but he can't force you to stay.

"You're right," Fated alpha replies with a sigh. "I don't expect you to trust me after everything that's happened, but... I can't just ignore it when something feels wrong." He pauses for a moment, searching for the right words. "And... and maybe I want to be here for you. Not because I think you owe me anything, but because... I care about you."

"It's okay," Fated alpha says softly, reaching over to wipe a tear from Satoshi's cheek. "I understand why you were scared. And honestly... I think we both made mistakes." He pauses for a moment, taking in the sight of Satoshi's wet hair plastered to his head and the way he shivers despite being inside the car.

"Would you like to come over? I could make us some hot chocolate and we could talk...
