They Chose My Sister. I Chose To Leave Chapter 9
Mom burst into tears the moment she saw me. She pulled me into her arms.“Emma, I’m so sorry.”I didn’t cry. I didn’t move. I stood rigid in her arms.Dad rubbed her shoulder, trying to comfort her.Ryan held out a brand-new phone.“Emma, this is for you. I should’ve got you something before.”I didn’t take it. I said nothing.The patrol took the men away, then asked me what had happened. Afterward, one of the officers turned to my parents.“She’s a remarkable young woman. How could you let things get this bad?”My parents apologized, visibly ashamed.Mom cried for a while. When I still didn’t respond, she wiped her eyes awkwardly.“Emma, say something.”I had. No one had listened.In the silence that followed, my parents finally seemed to realize where they stood.Dad sounded almost resentful.“You always do this. Are you trying to make us look like terrible parents?”I shook my head.“You know what you did. You can decide how you feel about it.”“So can I.”Dad had nothing to say. Ry

My parents and Ryan were soon on the highway.Adrian followed in his own car. He’d already asked the patrols in the packs along my route to look out for me.“Ryan, see if you can find out where Emma is.”He opened his phone. Someone had posted another update about me.I’d been on the road for three days. Working for meals and a place to sleep had helped me keep going.At first, no one wanted to help. Then, one day, it poured.A woman took pity on me and called me inside out of the rain.I washed a pile of dishes in exchange for a roast chicken.She asked where I was going. I told her I’d been accepted into Sunfang Werewolf Academy and was on my way there.My story ended up online.Once people saw it, they were less wary of me.One man pointed his phone at me and started a livestream.“I’ll give you a ride. How about you join my stream?”I shook my head and kept my eyes on the road.He swore.“Oh, cut the act. Your family’s loaded. Your sister’s online showing off all her expensive stuf

At last, Adrian broke the silence. His gaze was cold.“Bella Bennett, you really disgust me. How dare you forge an acceptance letter.”“I can’t believe I neglected Emma for you.”Bella’s eyes widened.“But you never used to treat me like this! You bought me that expensive tiara. You said you’d keep taking care of me after I started at the academy.”Adrian’s expression darkened.“I looked after you because you said your wolf was weak. You said you couldn’t handle stress and needed someone with you.”“That didn’t give you the right to lie to us.”“What about Emma?” Bella blurted out. “Are you going to run after her now?”Adrian gave a cold, disbelieving laugh.“Who do you think you are? You don’t get to put yourself in the same place as Emma.”“She’s the one I love. She always has been.”Bella went still. His own words seemed to hurt him, too.He’d always thought I was sensible. I could take care of myself. If I was upset, he could make it up to me later.Bella was different. She cried.

Dad snatched it back.“What do you mean, wrong? It has the academy’s name on it. And the seal!”“Please, sir. Let’s stay calm.”The woman tried to reassure him.Adrian stared at the letter. Suddenly, his expression changed.“Check the reference number.”The woman pulled up the admissions records and compared them with the letter.Bella raised her voice, crying.“You think I faked it? Fine! I won’t go here!”She turned to leave, but Ryan caught her arm.“Stay right there. Look at what we did to Emma because of you. You’re not walking away from this.”His face was so cold that Bella’s tears stopped.She stood frozen, staring at the brother who’d once given her anything she wanted.The woman spoke again.“I found it. This number belongs to another student who was admitted. The name has been changed, and the grades don’t match.”Mom’s eyes filled with tears.“What are you saying? We left Emma behind to bring her here, and now you’re telling me…”The woman glanced at Adrian before continuin

“That’s impossible!” Dad said at once.How could anyone walk more than a thousand miles to attend an academy in another pack’s territory?But Dad, that’s what you do when you have no money and no one left to turn to.They’d taken the only five thousand dollars I had, convinced it was money from something I’d stolen.They were the ones who’d left their own daughter with nothing.I had no other way out. All I could do was leave that house on foot and keep walking until I reached Sunfang.Dad’s friend hadn’t gone far. He’d heard the whole thing.“I wondered why a girl like that was having such a hard time. Now I know. Her own family treats her like she doesn’t matter.”They looked at one another. For a long time, no one spoke.Bella’s mouth turned down.“Mom, Dad, I don’t feel very well. Can we come back tomorrow?”Ryan answered first.“No. Tomorrow we’re going to find Emma.”Bella complained that she was sick and accused him of not caring about her.This time, he didn’t give in. He looke

On the sixth day, early check-in had begun for new students.My parents and Ryan drove Bella to campus with a car full of luggage.At the entrance, they ran into an old friend of Dad’s. He gave Dad a look they couldn’t quite read.“Robert. You have quite a daughter.”Dad looked pleased. “Our Bella’s always been special.”Mom smiled and kissed Bella’s cheek.“She has! Honestly, I worried the work would be too much for our sweetheart. And now look at her. She got into Silvermoon Werewolf Academy!”Even Ryan, who usually had little to say, couldn’t stop introducing Bella to the other students.None of them noticed how pale she was getting.Dad’s friend hesitated.“Robert. I’m talking about your other daughter.”My parents stared at him. Ryan went still, his hand frozen on the arm of a student he’d stopped to introduce to Bella.In the distance, Adrian waved to them.When Dad spoke, he barely sounded sure of himself.“Then… who do you mean?”“Who else could he mean? Emma, of course!” Mom s
