Chapter 0069 Chapter 0069 Kaia POV I place my laptop in my backpack before heading upstairs and selecting only a few clothes that will getto where I need to be.
I sweep the upstair rooms one last time, ensuring I leave nothing out of place, no memory that it wasthat lived here...clothes can be reused..can be thrown away, if he so chooses.
I walk downstairs, placing a jumper over freshly changed attire. Very calmly placing a few snacks and water bottles into my bag.
There is no need to wait, no need to wait until the cover of darkness. Everyone is at the pack party except a few and all will be up until the early hours of the morning anyhow.
There was no better tto go.
Closing the front door for the last time, I start walking in the opposite direction of the pack hall. The meadow was a happy place for my wolf and I, I would like to at least leave on sform of happy terms with myself. I won't say goodbye. It will do no good.
I head through the woods again, my wolf strengthening my vision as I tread through the dark woodland floor.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMy eyes are still sore from crying, hindering my own natural eye sight.
I walk towards a pack member on patrol, stationed to overlook the meadows. He turns to inspect the small noise I have created. A smile entering onto his face as he greetshello, his smile turning into a frown when I walk past him. He calls afteras I enter the meadow, my footwork picking up pace.
He's raised the alert already...I didn't have long. I could already feel the nervous disturbance of the pack bond...for those that aren't too busy partying.
Beta Ezra in particular is already trying to push on the mind-link with me, but I push him back.
My walls are truly back up again.
I shake out the sensation of what I am about to do. As do so I notice something shaking at my wrist... the crescent moon bracelet only given tothis evening by Hector.
+ let my eyes cast upon the delicate bracelet one last time. Who knows what would have happened if the invitation hadn't of been sent but in a way I am glad.
Now I will never spend another day wondering if I would be pushed aside, just waiting for that fateful day to come. What kind of life would that have been for me... 1 True clarity is a gift that I can finally behold.
I let my free hand touch the crescent moon pendant, it really was beautiful and such a shI can't keep it. But in keeping it I wouldn't be fully breaking free from the second mate bond that tried to confine me.
1/3 Chapter 0069 +25 BONUS I unfasten the clasp, letting the bracelet drop onto the long-grassed meadow...hopefully it will be buried in a day or two by nature.
With a deep breath I finally silence the warmth of the pack bond radiating in my chest, this is going to hurt.
I didn't have to reject the Amber Desert pack...joining the Dark Phantom pack gaveinstant removal from Than's dominating pack bond.
I can already hear shouting in the distance behind me, Ezra and his men running through the woods towards me. The guard behindnow running towardsas I start to move again.
This tmy intent clear..I had moved to the edge of the meadow. To the border of their pack.
"I, Kaia Glace, reject my position as a member of the Dark Phantom pack and now declare myself as rogue." I pant out through the piercing pain of each word, my hands clutching to my chest to help relieve my struggling lungs.
It's a pain I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy, a pain I hope never to go through again. It's like your own soul being ripped out from your heart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYou know you can survive because you have a beating heart still in place, but without your soul...is life actually worth living...
"Stop her!" I hear Ezra shout in the near distance.
I take my first step over their pack border...all colour draining from my face I dan feel if, it feels ghostly. I am the walking dead.
I am now a rogue.
I hear snapping of bones behind me, as Ezra shouts forbefore shifting himself.
I run...my feet moving the fastest they have in a long tThe last tran like this, I was with child. My wolf is faster now.
I run as if my life depends on it. I was now a rogue being chased by then ruthless wolves of the Dark Phantom pack. I had to tell myself this in order to keep moving.
I run, not stopping once until I lose them.
