Chapter Eight

Phillip spent the next two days mostly in the company of Old Maggie and Ivan, and then reporting back to James.

He had to learn how to properly let go of his wife if she was going to even have an afterlife that was more than just wandering around as a ghost zombie, oblivious to everything around her, and only existing to frighten the living.

Ivan was hardly any help. The man suggested meditation and long walks. He told him that he should speak out loud to her, as though she was there, to give him the chance to say the things he didn’t have the chance to before she’d died.

He followed those suggestions, waiting for privacy before speaking to a woman he couldn’t see, but the only things he could do was say how sorry he was that she’d died, how he missed her, and apologize for how much he was fucking up being a parent.

He never felt any better or any lighter.

Old Maggie suggested that Phillip visit Helen’s grave. He hadn’t done that at all since coming to live on DeWitt’s land. James had to take care of the details like that while Phillip was busy losing his mind out in the wild, so her grave was a marked space that was even on the property.

He’d tried going. He’d bought flowers for the occasion and figured he could take Sammy along as well.

The boy was getting a little more used to him, though his preferences for Corey over Phillip were still obvious. Phillip figured his rank was somewhere along the lines of a favorite uncle at this point, but they were both taking baby steps here.

He’d dressed Sammy up in some clean clothes, the best he had, taken him and the flowers to the place where the grave was supposed to be, and then stopped at the sight of them.

Helen’s looked the same as all the others, most were from his former pack. Some were from this one. A nice stone with her name in it, her date of birth and death, and that was it. Of course there wouldn’t be a loving inscription, because he hadn’t been there to bury her.

He’d promptly put the flowers down, turned around, and left.

Helen wasn’t in that grave anyway. She was a ghost following him around. So what was the point?

All this thinking about her, thinking about what he was and wasn’t doing right, it wasn’t helping. He missed Trevor, and his inner wolf missed him, too.

Unlike Helen, Trevor was alive, real and warm. He could speak with Trevor and laugh with him.

It had only been two days, but he needed to see him again. Maybe that would be enough to satisfy the urges that were running rampant inside of him.

He dropped Sammy off with a kiss and a hug back with Corey. As usual, the man was glad to have Sammy back in the main house, like he thought that every time Phillip came to pick him up or spend time with him meant that would be the last time Sammy would be spending the night under his roof.
