Chapter 14

"What, the Theta nu Theta pack?" He winced slightly but nodded. "Well I don't know of them but I have heard of them. Apparently there the nastiest pack, well according to Elena and Javier which makes everyone believe it but I don't, my wolf actually likes the name of the pack." His face paled even more if that was even possible. "well anyways back to the story, first day back at school Elena showed up with bruises so everyone believed that Ellie actually did. After that day things have been getting worse. People would shove her and bully her, even kids from Daniel's school tease her." My dad's face hardened but he remained quiet. "They say she's a whore that steals people's mates and all these other ridiculous stuff about how she's secretly part of the Theta nu Theta pack." As I said this my fists were clentched. "You don't know how hard it is to keep my wolf calm when what I really want to do is kill them, but I can't for Ellie's sake. She has a calm nature, and hates fighting. My wolf and I on the hand is down for anything. He wants to kill Javier not only for what he did to Ellie but because my wolf doesn't like being bossed around." I started shaking as images of Javier slapping Ellie and of him ordering me around started playing in my head. I was so close to shifting, if it wasn't for the doorbell I would've shifted right now. When I opened the door I was surprised to see Crystal there because Ellie said she was staying at the pack house with her. "Hey Crystal." She just nodded and smiled but her smile didn't reach her ears. "Did you come with Ellie?" I asked as I looked around. Crystal shook her head and a tear fell out of her eye. "Where is she? Is she ok?" I asked frantically and as I did my dad came to the door and he was going crazy too. Crystal didn't say anything but just reached into her purse and pulled out two envelopes and handed it to us. She gave us a sympathetic smile before walking off. Confused I opened the letter with my name on it with Ellie's handwriting on it. It read: Dear Corey, By the time you're reading this I am most probably long gone, and for that I am sorry. You know half the reason why I left, but deep down you know the whole story, but you're just too over protective to realise. All this time you have been protecting me you became blind to what's actually going on. Javier Graham is my mate, he rejected me. That's why I've been depressed, because no matter what he does I can't stop loving him even If I wanted to. But after he announced Maya as his mate, he not only destroyed me, but my wolf too. My wolf is hurt and she needs time away so she can process it. For two years brother I stayed strong, watching him flirt and kiss other girls in front of me, it killed me. That's not the only reason, Luke has abandoned me for Elena. He admitted that he likes seeing me upset, what kind of friend does that? Anyway, don't worry I will keep in touch. When I safely arrive somewhere I will call you. Thank you for sticking by me and protecting me. You and Daniel are the best brother's I could've asked for. I must've done something right to deserve you two. Take care of Daniel, I know he's going to take this hard, but make sure he doesn't act out. I will always love you, forever and always. From Ellie xoxo PS: Don't go on a psychotic rampage... please for my sake. My wolf went into a frenzy phase. I didn't hand my father the letter addressed to him, momma and Dan so he was looking at me weirdly. The last part of the letter is what kept me together, but it didn't stop the tears. My twin was gone, she was hurting more than she let out and I wasn't there for her. Javier, he's dead to me, how can he reject her? I may not be able to kill him but man he better pray my wolf's nature is kind and forgiving because boy his first on my hit list. "Corey, what's wrong?" My father asked as he gripped my shoulders. I looked at him then down at the letter and slowly handed it to him. Paea's P.O.V Why is Corey crying? This boy never cries except when Ellie fights with him. Ellie doesn't realise how loving and protective he is over her. Even Daniel is. I guess they all take after me. "Corey, what's wrong?" I asked my son worriedly. He looked down at an enevelope in his hand then back at me and then slowly gave it to me. I took it, confused to what's going to be in it. I smelt Ellie's scent all over it and so I looked down and sure enough it was Ellie's handwriting on the front of the envelope printed 'Mum, Dad and Daniel'. I opened it up and read: Dear Mum, Dad and Daniel I know you thought things were going great in my life, but the truth Is, it's not. It's the complete opposite. I'm sorry I lied to you for two years and before you get angry at Corey I made him promise not to tell any of you so don't punish him too roughly. Now you're probably wondering why I'm writing this letter instead of telling you, well you see I'm kind of gone. I needed to get out of here so I ran. And I know you raised me better than to run from my problems but I tried, for two whole years. I tried to overlook my problems but I can't. It hurts too much.
