Emily..
Ever since I met Drake when I was a lone wolf, I thought I had found happiness. Now I feel that this happiness is about to be taken away. Why do I have to suffer this way? Why did he hurt me for no reason?
I sat there in the dark as I cried, yet no one was there to tell me sorry. If only I knew it would turn out this way, I couldn't have imagined what my fate would be now.
I stared out through the little window and saw that it was already getting dark. I felt lost and like I'm on the brink of losing my mind.
"Relax, Emily, everything will be alright," I tried to tell myself, but it felt like I was even lying to myself. I didn't think that everything was going to be alright.
I could not understand why Lia acted the way she did. She knows full well that I went to her party last night, so why did she say I was going for a business? What business?
I felt as if the ground under my feet was about to give way, wondering how I could handle all this drama and tell myself that everything was going to be alright.
Then, I heard a sound, and I quickly stood up, staring at the door. Maybe it must be Drake. Maybe I can plead with him one more time and hope that he listens to me.
After a while, the door opened, and when I looked, I saw Lia walk in with a smirk on her face as she stared at me.
"Poor you, just look at where you've led yourself. You know, I kind of feel pity for you," she said.
I stared at her, and with anger rising within me, I felt like hitting her. Just as I was about to move forward, the chain on my leg pulled me back, and I glared at her with anger.
"Poor you, just look at how you willingly put yourself in this position to suffer once again. You don't deserve Drake, so I think it's best you suffer," she continued.
Looking at her got me so confused. Why would she speak in this manner when I had done everything I could to be her friend and make her happy? Yet, in the end, she decided to mock me.
“Why are you doing this? You know the truth. Why are you not saying anything?” I asked in frustration.
She chuckled at my words, looked at me, and then spoke, "Yes, I know a lot, and I also see a lot as well, Emily."
Seeing her smirk, it suddenly hit me. I couldn't believe that Lia was behind all that had happened to me.
"You can't be the one, right?" I said, trembling in fear as she just kept on smiling.
"You have always let your emotions being used against you. You always think that if you show kindness to someone, they will reciprocate in kind. Well, you are wrong, and I will make sure you leave this pack. All my life, I have wanted Drake, and I did everything to get closer to him until you came and ruined everything. You are such a fool, and you think I will just let it go like that? Listen to me, Emily, tonight will be the last time you will ever see this pack or this face."
I was so confused about what she was saying. What did she mean that today would be the last day I would see this pack or this face?
"What are you saying?" I asked, but all she did was turn around and walk away, leaving me with a silent response.
I felt scared. I couldn't stop thinking about what she said. Was she trying to imply that after tonight, I would be no more? Was Drake trying to kill me or something?
I sat on the floor, placing my hands over my head, feeling as if I was going crazy. Everything felt like it was turning upside down, and I felt like I was on the verge of losing my mind at any moment.
The darker everything became, the more I felt like this was the worst decision of my life.
"Relax, Emily, everything is going to be okay," I reassured myself, but I still felt scared deep inside of me.
After a while, I composed myself and nodded, deciding to fall asleep and wait for whatever happens to happen.

I felt a splash of water on my face and quickly stood up, turning to see that one of the guards was standing close to me.
"Get up, the Alpha doesn't have time," he commanded.
I was confused as I got up, my mind racing with thoughts of the danger I was in and where they were taking me, but I couldn't comprehend their intentions.
I was led outside where a large crowd awaited, and I wondered what was happening. Everyone seemed to be shouting insults at me, calling me names like a witch, a traitor, and a disgrace to the pack.
I was pushed to my knees in front of Drake, unsure of what to say or how to feel about the situation.
"Tonight, I am here to bring your attention to the fact that this lady will no longer be your Luna; in fact, she is not even one of us," Drake declared.
I looked at Drake when he said that, feeling confused about what he meant by those words.
"She is nothing but a disappointment, a witch, and a wicked soul who lacks empathy for others' feelings. Today, I stand before you all to make it known that after tonight, Emily Lee, a formerly lone wolf, will depart and return to the life she had before I first met her. She is no longer my luna, and she is no longer a part of this pack."
I was confused and couldn't comprehend what Drake was trying to convey.
"Drake, what are you trying to do? You don't have to do this. I love you," I said in a desperate attempt to salvage the situation.
He turned towards me when I uttered those words, and I could see the anger in his eyes.
"Love? Did you just say love? You don't know what love is, Emily. I, Drake, Alpha of the Crimson Pack, stand here today to announce that I reject you, Emily Lee, as my mate and Luna."
Upon hearing those words, I felt a wave of nausea sweep over me, and I was at a loss for words.
