William cto a halt, turning his gaze back towards Orion.

After a moment of tense silence, he erupted, "What a shthat in this lifetime, you are destined to be nothing

more than my son." His words hung heavy in the air, a bitter declaration of disappointment.

Without another word, he dismissed Orion's presence, climbing into his car and driving away. Orion remained

rooted to the spot, his eyes cast downward, fixated on the ground. He was silent, lost in the echo of his father's

harsh words. Quinn, watching him with a growing concern, reached out to touch his arm. Tseemed to stretch

out before Orion finally lifted his gaze to meet hers.

Under the dim light, his face was a mask of pallor, a stark contrast to his usual vibrant self. In a matter of

minutes, he seemed to have aged years.

His eyes, once bright, now glimmered with a wounded light, a hint of helplessness lurking within their depths. He

opened his mouth to speak, but words failed him.Feeling his distress, Quinn tightened her grip on his arm, a

silent offer of comfort.

Orion closed his eyes, drawing in a deep breath before gently extricating himself from Quinn's grasp. His voice

was hoarse as he reassured her, "I'm fine."

His words were belied by the unshed tears in his voice, lending it a raspy, nasal quality.He made his way towards

the cages, but hesitated as he neared them.Quinn, standing beside him, mustered the courage to approach the

cages. As she drew closer, the sight that met her eyes was heart-wrenching.

The dogs lay haphazardly in their cages, their bodies still and lifeless. They looked as if they were merely

sleeping. Tentatively, Quinn reached out to touch a golden retriever. Its cold, unresponsive body sent a chill down

her spine. The sight brought back memories of Ulysses' death. He had looked just as peaceful, as if he were

simply basking in the sun in their yard. The only difference was that this time, his eyes remained closed forever.

After Ulysses' death, Quinn had felt an emptiness whenever she saw familiar places, things, and the rocking

chair he loved.

The sadness would creep up on her, a painful reminder of the person who should have been there but never

showed up.

It was through this lingering sense of loss that she had cto truly understand the finality of death and the

separation it brought. Whether it was a person or an animal, emotional bonds were inevitable over time.

And for Orion, who had cared for these animals for so long, his emotions ran deep.Gathering his courage, Orion

approached the cages. His face was set in grim determination as he reached out to open the cages, flicking on

the overhead light. The harsh light revealed the tragic conditions inside.Orion's hand trembled as he reached out

to touch a husky. "29..." he whispered.Quinn looked at him in surprise.

A tear slipped from Orion's eye as he choked out, "This was the twenty-ninth animal I'd adopted. | remember

boasting that | would fill this facility with them."

He gave a bitter smile. "From one to one thousand, that would have been something. | remember all their names

and all their faces. They must never have imagined they would die because of me. They must have been

desperate, waiting forto save them. Why didn't | hurry... If | had been faster, they wouldn't have died."
