Chapter 7
7 Time to Go
7 Time to Go Rosalyn POV
I rush to my room and throw everything I can into my duffle bag. My heart breaks as I look around my room. A room that holds so many memories for me. Memories of growing up surrounded by love. Love that I thought was unbreakable. Realizing how wrong I was is a hard pill to swallow. I stare at the pictures of me with Reese, Addison, and my family that cover the walls of the room
I grab the pictures of Addison shoving them in my bag. I wonder if she'll hate me for leaving. I fight back the tears that threaten to fall. How could everything go so wrong? We were supposed to be sisters, but they took that from me too. I pray that someday we will see each other again and she won't hate me
"Better get a move on Rose. We need to put some distance between us and the pack." I turn smiling at my brother. I hate that this is taking his home from him too. He steps toward me, pulling me into his arms. "Don't waste your tears on those two a**hats. They don't deserve them. Now mom's waiting for us downstairs. She has one more thing to do before we leave this sh*t show behind." I can't help but smile
My mother is sitting in her normal chair at the dining room table staring down at my father. My heart squeezes in my chest when I realize what she is about to do. This is her mate. The man the goddess chose for her. Her eyes meet mine and I hate the pain I see in them
"Mom" I start to say as the tears roll down my cheeks. "Don't you dare, Rosalyn Rain. None of this is your fault. Cain made his choice. You are my pup and I will always protect you, just as he should have done. I cannot

She stands taking a deep breath before she finally manages to speak the words, I'm sure she never thought she would say to my father. "I, Miranda Sophia Myers, reject and break all bonds with Cain Johnathon Myers." Her expression is pained as he tries to hold back the scream that wants to escape her lips. Her legs give out, but Emmett manages to wrap her in his arms before she falls to the ground
Cain groans and, even though he is still unconscious, his hand goes to his chest, feeling the loss of their bond. "Come on Rose, we need to get mom to the car. I'm not sure how long that wolfsbane is going to last. It was only enough to knock him out. Mom wants him to live with what he's done." We make our way outside and Emmett helps my mother into the car
"Rose, I need you to get in the back and keep your head down until we are out of the pack territory. The guards have been given strict orders to ensure you don't leave and to take you directly to the Alpha if you try," Emmett says, and bile rises in my throat. I stare at my brother who is risking everything for me
"Get your a** in the car, Rose. Mom and I are going with you because we want to. Staying here is not an option for us. You are our family. Where you go, we go." I go up on my toes and kiss his cheek. I slide into the back seat, saying a silent prayer that the goddess will guide us to a place where we will be safe. I can see my mom is still struggling, but she manages to grip my hand as the car approaches the gates
"Hey man, where are you off to" the guard asks Emmett. "Dad, set me
up to visit some of the neighboring packs to see if I can find my mate," he says, his voice steady. I hold my breath hoping that the guard doesn't see through Emmett's lie. The sound of the gate opening makes my heart beat

faster. The car lurches forward. As we clear the gate, I chance one last look at the pack that was meant to be our home, but now it is a place I just want to forget
I'm not sure how long we drive before Emmet finally pulls over into the parking lot of a small diner. Mom seems to be doing better, but she still looks drained. I know she's strong, but that doesn't mean she isn't suffering the pain of a broken bond. A young woman who is hopelessly flirting with my brother shows us to a booth. I swear he's oblivious. At least one of my brother's is keeping his vow to wait for his mate
"So, I think we should stay away from packs. As soon as Alpha Robert realizes we're gone, he will alert the other packs that the future Luna of the
Black Rose is missing," Emmett says
"Do you really think he'll do that? Won't he have to tell them exactly why I left? I can't imagine other wolves would agree with what they were trying to make me do. Just the force marking alone is against werewolf law." Emmett growls low, and! cough to coverup the sound. "Emmett, you're going to need to keep Brayer from growling around the humans."
He nods just as the waitress sets our food down in front of us. "Can I get you anything else handsome," she asks. "No, thank you" he says. I almost feel bad as her smile falters before she makes her way back toward the counter
"I think the answer to your question is yes, Rosalyn. If Robert was encouraging Reese to force himself on you, I don't think it's a stretch he would lie to the other Alphas about the reason you're missing. Your brother is right. We need to stay in a human city. We can find a place to stay and get jobs for now," my mother says. She grips my hand across the table. "We will stay safe together."

Reese POV
It has been two hours since Cain took Rosie home. Fallon and I are both on edge. We need to see Rosie. Goddess, I wish she would let me hold her again. I miss having her in my arms. I look down at Bryce. He's been asleep since Rosie left. His face is almost completely healed. I hate that Fallon attacked him, but he needs to understand that Rosie is our true mate. A true Alpha wolf needs their fated mate not only for strength but for strong pups
Bryce and I have been together for almost two years and a part of me will always love him, but I need Rosie. If I have to choose, it will be her hands down. She is perfect. The goddess couldn't have picked a better mate for me. She is beautiful, strong, and kind. I was hopeful when my father came up with the plan of having them both they would agree, but I knew in my heart that Rosie wouldn't
"Need to see our mate now" Fallon growls. I slip out of the room and down the long hallway that leads outside. I shift not caring that I shred my clothes. It only takes us ten minutes to reach the Beta house. I shift back, grabbing a pair of basketball shorts from behind the tree we used to climb as pups. I'm on the porch in three long strides
I knock a few times before I try the handle. When the door opens, a pit forms in my stomach. The house is eerily quiet. I make my way through the house and stop dead when I see Cain leaning against the wall in the dining room. He looks like he is barely hanging on. When his eyes meet mine, I know she gone. She left me. Fallon pushes forward, and he starts to break everything in our path
When I finally manage to take back control, I stare down at a man that
has been like a second father to me. "What the f**k happened?" "Miranda drugged me. She broke our bond. They are gone, my family is gone" he

says, sounding broken. I link my father. "What do you mean they're gone? Why the f**k was she out of the cells, Reese?" "Dad, that isn't important right now. We need to find them. I can't lose my mate."
He breaks the link with me. He taps into the pack link, alerting every available tracker and warrior that the future Luna has been taken. Howls sound throughout the pack. "Take yourself to the infirmary. You're of no use to me or the pack like this. If you want to find your mate, pull yourself together. I have to bring my Luna home," I say making my way back out of the house. We will find you, RosalynRêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
