Alec. It’s been around three months since that b***h turned my life upside down. Three months later, the slut still refuses to talk. I hate her for everything she’s done. If it weren’t for her selfishness, Lola and I would have been mated. She’d most likely be pregnant with my heir. Sadie took all that away from me. She took more than she would ever know. My pack is cursed. We were weakening and dying. No other pack knew of this. They still thought we were strong. If they knew, it wouldn’t take them long before they wiped us out. No one knew much about the curse. Or how we got it. Only that it was placed on us about a century ago. My father and grandfather thought there wasn’t any hope. Until it was prophesied that my mate would be the one to break the curse. She was supposed to bring hope and restoration. With her by my side, the pack would be restored to its former glory, and we would be stronger than we ever thought possible. Sadie ruined all that when she drugged me. Not only have I probably lost my mate for good, but I also lost the only hope I had for my pack surviving. "f**k, I feel like snapping her neck” my wolf, Knox, growls. “The feeling is mutual,” I tell him. “Although I want her confession first before I execute her.” After her arrest, Pip told me about how Sadie's crush on me continued even after we were older. She told me that she once told her that she loved me and that she'd one day be my mate. Pip didn't take it seriously and thought that whatever she was feeling would fade with time. When she told me that, I scoffed. As if such a pathetic woman could be my mate. Even if she wasn't the cause of my pain, I still wouldn't have looked at her twice. I love my women model slim and beautiful. Sadie wasn't any of that. She dressed like a hobo; others would say she was curvy, but I call it fat, and she didn't take care of her looks. My Luna should be strong and beautiful, not some pathetic, weak, ugly woman. Lola was everything I wanted: beautiful, smart, and strong. She's the daughter of a beta warrior. Sadie, on the other hand, was the daughter of Helps. Her parents were omegas and servants of the Alpha family. You can’t even begin to imagine the hate I have for her. The pain she’s put me through. Every f*****g day, I wake up feeling empty. Feeling like my soul has been ripped into two. I still hold out hope that Lola is going to forgive me, but deep down, it’s a long shot. Not when she’s refused to see or speak to me since the morning I woke up with Sadie beside me. I walk towards my office. When Micah told me that Lola was here, I couldn’t help but feel the hope that leaped inside me. I wait for her patiently. I was nervous and f*****g scared at the same time. I smell her the moment she gets near the door. Lavender. That’s what she smells like. Without knocking, she enters my office. If it were any other person, I would have gone off on them. This is Lola, though. My mate and the woman who owns my heart. We got to know each other after we met. She wanted us to take things slow. Get to know each other. I agreed because I didn’t want my eagerness to chase her away. During the weeks I got to know her, I fell in love. She was everything I could ever imagine my mate being like. What f*****g hurts is that I could lose her for something I don’t even have a memory of. “Hello Alec. How are you?” she greets with her hands folded to her front. The warm look she used to have for me is long gone. Standing before me is a woman I barely recognize. I’m a cold bastard, but this version of Lola has no warmth. It’s like the woman I fell in love with doesn’t exist anymore. “Hey Lola.” She pulls her eyes away from me. Taking her time, she studies the office. A minute later, her eyes focus on me again. “I’ve finally reached a decision about us.” Her voice is as cold as her expression. This is what my stupidity did. I know I didn’t hurt her intentionally, but I still feel f*****g guilty. I knew Sadie wanted me. She was obsessed with me. Yet I went and joined her at the bar. To be honest, I never f*****g thought she would stoop so low as to drug me. That never crossed my mind. “And?” My voice is controlled, but my insides are burning. “I can’t be with a cheater, Alec,” she delivers the blow smoothly. It almost makes me think that I hadn’t heard her right. “Please reconsider. I didn’t mean to sleep with her. I can’t even f*****g remember what the hell happened.” There is a c***k in my armor. One that I never allow anyone to see. “I’m sorry, but I can’t. Every time I close my eyes, I see you and her wrapped in sheets, naked. I can still smell the scents from your i*********e. Still smell her scent all over your skin and hers on yours.” I close my eyes against the pain that tears through my heart. I f*****g hate that b***h with everything I am. "Please.” I’ve never begged before, but this is my mate. I would do anything for her. She takes a deep breath. I think she is going to take back her decision, but I’m wrong. So f*****g wrong. “I Lola Thompson, reject you, Alpha Alec Ashford, as my mate and hereby sever our mate bond.” She stumbles from the pain but doesn’t fall. I grit my teeth against the pain of feeling my heart being ripped into two. It’s unimaginable. It’s the worst pain I’ve ever felt. And it’s all thanks to Sadie. She was going to pay. “You broke my heart, but I wish you well. I hope you treat your second chance mate well.” With that, and without a backward glance, she leaves the office. Leaving me to deal with the remnants of my shattered heart and soul. I breathe through the pain. Trying to calm myself and my wolf down. “Make it stop,” Knox howls in my head. There is nothing I can do, though. I block my link to the pack so that they don’t feel or witness my pain. We were already suffering; they didn’t need to be worried about their Alpha. I calm down just in time. Jason walks into my office with a worried and angry expression. “What’s wrong?” “Sadie is missing,” he grits out. “What the f**k do you mean by missing?” I stand up. Anger rises inside me. As if it isn’t enough that she cost me my mate and my pack their salvation, now she dares escape? “f*****g find her.” I shout as I let my bitterness and frustration out. “She couldn’t have gone far.” The moment he’s gone, I turn my office upside down. With nothing else to lose, I let out a roar that shook the whole goddamn house. One that speaks of my heartache and pain. Just then, I feel a member cut off their link to the pack. Deep inside, I just know that it’s Sadie. No one else would do that. I smile cruelly as I remember how I sliced her face. How I disfigured her beautiful yet deceiving face. If she thought she could just destroy my life and get away with it, then she had another thing coming. She destroyed my world, and I was going to return the favor. “For her crimes against the Alpha and the Blood Moon Pack, I hereby banish Sadie Evans,” I feel her pain for a second before it disappears along with her essence. I grin. I’ve just made things worse for her. As a banished wolf, she will never be able to join another pack.
