Everything was coming back to me. Every single memory my mind had managed to block for the past six months was coming back, shredding my sanity into pieces. Not a single memory was pleasant. Nights I had spent without food made my stomach twist in pain. Charlene’s and Oriana’s abuse wasn't easy. Every slap, kick, and hair pull pained me. Every time my parents slapped me, busted my lips, or threw me in the cells for a mistake I didn't mean to make burned my soul.
“Think of Loana. Come on. She was your best friend. You must have had great memories with her,” Xander's voice paved its way to my ears, trying to push through the darkness I was drowning in.
“It hurts!” I screamed, digging my nails in his forearm. I didn't want to hurt him, but I couldn't control my actions.
“I know. I know, but you can do it, yeah? Think of Loana. Think of her,” he kept repeating. It was so hard to find any source of light in that darkness. Just breathing was an effort I was not wil
What do you think about what Xander has decided to do? Leave a review, please! it would mean a lot! Published on June 14th, 2021 Sara
“You’ve got to be kidding me!” Rowena snapped. She was in shock just as I was. He wanted to send me back? He knew what they had done to me, yet he didn't mind sending me back to them. My mate surely hated me. “I'm not going to let you do that to her!” I stood there, not saying anything. What was I supposed to say? What was left to be said? He broke every hope left in me. I thought maybe we could work things out, but I was wrong. He didn't want to fix anything. He wanted to get rid of me. Of course, he wouldn't want me as his mate. He was ashamed of me. He had decided my fate with his Beta, Gamma, and Delta. There was nothing I could do to change their minds. None of them would accept me as their Luna. I was a disgrace to them. Hell, they couldn't even accept me as a werewolf among them, how were they going to consider me their Luna? The truth was, I didn't want to be the Luna. I just wanted to have a peaceful life. I desired nothing but to live among pe
“It would be so selfish of me to hold you back or to ask you to stay for a little while longer. I want the best for you, and I know the best would never be here, but I… I'm going to miss you so much,” Loana whimpered as the two of us held onto one another. I couldn't believe that this was about to happen. I was about to leave everything behind and start a new life. This was what I wanted. This was what would make me breathe again, but I had never known that saying goodbye to Loana would be that painful. There was something common between me before my amnesia and me after my amnesia. The two of us wanted to escape. The two of us strived for freedom and were ready to face any obstacle just to have it. Apparently, I had been saving money ever since I was thirteen and during those years, I managed to save a good amount to support myself for a month abroad. Despite how cruel my family was with me, they used to give me money, not a lot of course, but enough to get myself some clot
I fucked up. I made a huge mistake and there was no going back. I thought that after sending her away, my pain would lessen, but no. The pain became stronger. It was lethal. Mirk had been angrier than ever, not bearing to be around anyone. After I forced her out of my pack, Rowena told me I was going to regret my decision and she was right. Each day, I paid the price I couldn't afford. When I talked to Jorah, Keith, and Declan about her being my mate they were shocked. I was shocked too, but a part of me didn't mind her being my mate. In fact, I was glad, but I couldn't admit that to anyone. She caught my eyes from the first time we were in the forest and I couldn't just look past her beauty. My friends thought having her as my mate would make the pack riot. Yes, they wanted me to find my mate, but they wouldn't want their Luna to be from the rival pack. I foolishly rejected her. I pushed her away forever and I regretted my action. I wasn't okay. I needed her
“This table is going to be the death of me.” I rolled my eyes as I set my empty tray in front of Delora, earning a light chuckle from her. “Like can't they just behave!?” I hissed, trying to clean my apron. The guy was literally eating the girl’s face, causing her to randomly move her hands around, ending up spilling the glasses I had on the tray on me. “I don’t mind people showing affection in public, but this is too much.” She let out a small giggle, placing two lattes on my tray. “Good thing the manager pointed out that this was a family place. Take these to table five,” she instructs me. So much had changed during the past few years. I hadn't set a foot in America in four years, and not once had I regretted my decision. Living in Peru is one of the best things that had happened to me. Life here is way simpler than what I had endured in America. Yes, I missed Loana, but that wasn’t enough to make me go back. I talked to her regularly, but I couldn’t b
“I can't believe it!” he exclaimed with a huge smile on his face. Was this relief on his face? Was Jorah, the beta of Silver Moon, happy to see me? Was that the same man who supported the decision of sending me away? “I finally found you! Xander is going to be so happy.” My eyes shot up at him. Of course, Xander would be the first person to cross his mind upon seeing me. Why would Xander be happy anyway? Didn’t he reject me four years ago? “Who said I want any of you to find me? Wasn’t I rejected and kicked out? I left the whole continent running away from all of you and my entire life. Do you really think I'll throw myself in your arms once I see any of you?” I snapped at him. The audacity of this pack and each member in it! “Ayla, listen. Many things have changed. Let’s talk everything out. I have a lot to say to you,” Jorah spoke over the loud music, but I shook my head. No change would be good enough to make me get back. “Ayla. Where did you
I had been running for thirty minutes and the anger in me hadn't subsided. It hadn't subsided during the past four years and I didn't know how to put an end to it. My chest was burning with fire. I ignited it a long time ago and I didn't know how to put it down. The people in my pack thought I'd have gotten used to her absence by now, but that didn't happen. Each day I woke up and hoped I'd find her with me, telling me that the nightmare was finally over and she would never leave my side. There were mistakes that one could never recover from and rejecting my unforgettable mate, Ayla, was one of them.I was breathing, but I wasn't living. I didn't know how to live after Loana told me that my mate left. I tried to get in contact with Loana again, asking her to tell me if she had learned anything about Ayla’s whereabouts, but nothing worked. I searched everywhere in America. I asked every pack about her, yet I couldn't find her, she was too good at hiding.As I ran
I settled around the table beside the huge window and waited for Jorah to arrive. I contemplated not coming, but I didn't commit a crime to run away from. Part of me was also curious as to what he had to say to me. He was determined in the club, thinking that he could change my mind. I didn't think that this would be possible. Not after what they had done to me. Not after abandoning me when they knew how abusive my family was. How did he expect that I would be able to forget what they had done to me? I took a sip from my lemon-mint smoothie as I recalled all that they had done to me. No, I could never forget them. Not after everything. “Hey, sorry I'm late,” Jorah’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts, causing me to look up at him. He hadn't changed a lot. If anything, he had gained muscles. “It's fine,” I said. I couldn't even force out a smile. Whenever my eyes met him, I remembered when he agreed on sending me away. “How have you been?” he asked me
“You found her? Jorah, you're not joking, right?” I jolted out of bed upon hearing what I had just been told. He saw Ayla and he was about to meet her. This all felt like a dream. I searched everywhere in the USA, yet my mate was so fed up with everyone around her and left the entire continent. “Xander, I need you to think rationally. She's really mad at us and I don't know how this meeting will go, but I just thought you should know,” Jorah spoke. “I'm coming to Peru. I will meet her and I will tell her everything. I will fix what I broke. I will do anything to get her back.” I was already in my closet, throwing different clothes in my suitcase. I wasn't going to waste any more time. Four years had been wasted from my life and I wasn't going to waste one more minute. “Listen, Xander. Let me just meet her and I will tell you how things will go. Don't do anything reckless. If you want to come, that's fine. Just don't surprise her and show up out of the blue in
