Chapter 7

Author: HunterD
Ayla stood frozen, glancing nervously at her parents.

My mother gripped the stair railing, stunned. Her mouth hung open, her eyes locked on Ayla, but she couldn't say a word.

My father looked at the spilled medicine, his face dark and unreadable.

"No, that's not true, Mom, Dad. I didn't! She's lying to you. You have to believe me!" Ayla rushed forward and grabbed my mother's sleeve.

My mother's expression wavered. She didn't know what was true anymore.

But just then, Clara spoke again. "I have r

  • I Left After My Family Gave My Moonstone to My Sister   Chapter 9

    I'd chosen my own life, and I was happy with it. I didn't want to dwell on the past anymore.I looked at the three of them, took a deep breath, and said softly, "It'd be a lie to say I don't resent you. But the past is the past, and I don't want to revisit it."I'm doing well now. I don't need you anymore..."So please go. I'm not coming back. And don't come looking for me again."At that, my mother's eyes went wide. Forgetting everything else, she clutched my hand as big tears rolled down her face."Elena..."My father stood to one side, looking at me intently. Then he pulled a crown from inside his coat."This is the crown that should have been yours. I had it remade. And I brought your grandfather's necklace too. Elena, we were wrong before. I was wrong!"I shouldn't have hit you. I shouldn't have forced you to give up the necklace. And I never should have said you didn't deserve to be my daughter."By then, my father's voice was shaking too. "Only now do I understand. I'm the one w

  • I Left After My Family Gave My Moonstone to My Sister   Chapter 8

    By my second month with the Greyhaven pack, I'd settled into my new life.I trained and hunted with the pack's warriors, and we could talk about anything. Even though I was new to the pack, they were all friendly to me.On my first day there, Arthur Blackwood came to meet me himself. He was the Alpha of the Greyhaven pack and the fiercest, most powerful wolf on the continent.I'd assumed he'd be aloof and hard to approach, but to my surprise, for all his power, he got along well with everyone in the pack.He held a welcome ceremony for me that day and announced that from then on, I was part of the Greyhaven pack.Everyone turned out for me and cheered my arrival. I'd never once had that with the Ainsley family.In that house, everyone's attention was always on Ayla. I was never the one who mattered.Arthur knew I liked quiet, so he arranged for me to live in a secluded part of the territory where no one would bother me.One day, when I was out hunting with them, Arthur shifted into a h

She's lying to you. You have to believe me!" Ayla rushed forward and grabbed my mother's sleeve.My mother's expression wavered. She didn't know what was true anymore.But just then, Clara spoke again. "I have recordings! Every time she had me brew the medicine, I recorded it!"She took out her phone and played an audio clip. Ayla's voice came through the speaker, cold and clear. "Make this month's medicine the same as always. They can't find out I'm better. Once I've driven Elena out for good, everything in this house will be mine!"Ayla sounded smug and cruel on the recording, nothing like the sweet, gentle girl she pretended to be.Raphael couldn't believe what he was hearing. He turned to Ayla and

    My mother shook her head, her eyes filling with tears. "Elena's always been so sensible. How could she just leave like that?"As if she'd suddenly thought of something, she grabbed my father's arm."Quick, let's go home and check! She must still be at home!"My father didn't say anything, but he'd already turned and strode out. Raphael followed right behind.The news threw the once-joyful mating ceremony into chaos.Ayla stood there, watching everyone leave, grinding her teeth in fury. But she kept quiet and followed them.Back at the estate, my father headed straight upstairs. He frowned and pounded on my door twice.There was still no answer from inside. He lost his patience completely and ordered someone to force the door open.The moment the door swung open, he and my mother froze at the sight of my empty room.The wardrobe doors were wide open. The few clothes I usually wore and my papers were all gone.The whole room was bare, as if no one had ever lived there.All that was left

    The sun was fully up. There were three hours left until Ayla and Raphael's mating ceremony. My mother was busy helping Ayla into a gorgeous gown while my father went over the schedule. Not one of them came upstairs to check on me.My mother didn't knock on my door until it was almost time to leave for the ceremony. Even then, she came for Ayla's sake."Elena, today is your sister and Raphael's mating ceremony. Ayla says she wants the whole family there on her big day, so you have to come."No sound came from inside. She stood at the door and said with a sigh, "Elena, stop sulking. Be reasonable. I know you're upset, but this is the most important day of your sister's life. As her older sister, you have to be there."I promise, once the ceremony's over, I'll have Ayla give the necklace back to you. Your crown too. There! Happy now?"She sounded impatient, as if I were a problem she had no idea how to handle. Soon my father came up, followed by Ayla in all her finery."What's going on?"

  • I Left After My Family Gave My Moonstone to My Sister   Chapter 4

    In three days, I'd be gone from here for good.I spent the next few days preparing to leave, and not one of them noticed.They were too busy getting ready for Ayla and Raphael's mating ceremony. My father checked the guest list three times, and my mother went through Ayla's jewelry and gowns again and again, afraid the smallest mistake would ruin her big day.No one cared what I was doing.But the night before I was due to leave, my mother surprised me by knocking on my door.She sat down beside me with a plate of macarons and spoke warmly. "Elena, I've been so busy with your sister lately, we haven't really talked."I made these macarons myself. I remember they used to be your favorite. Try one."I looked at the plate of macarons and, despite myself, felt a little moved. So she does remember...But just as I reached for one, my mother suddenly said, "Elena, where's that diamond necklace your grandfather left you?"I froze and looked at her, confused."Here's the thing. Your sister say
