You Abandoned Me Novels & Stories

"I just acted my part and took the money! After Roland's people took her, they boarded a submarine in international waters. By now, they're probably on the other side of the world!" Anthony stood there in silence for a long time. So, that was it. She had already given him up. She knew him too well. She was certain he would choose Cheryl out of guilt and that he would abandon her for so-called responsibility. That explosion had destroyed not just a ship. It had obliterated every last trace of her love and trust in him. Mabel was that kind of woman; once she stopped loving someone, she severed all ties completely. No hesitation. No return.

I stated. “ This is just a reminder that you should forget about me ever addressing you as my mom. My mom died a long time ago so I don't have any, I hope that's clear enough for you, Abigail?” I said, walking past her while she cried. I didn't care if she bawled her eyes out all day because no mother would abandon their child just to live a better life. I had longed been replaced by Jason, I only found out after being physically abandoned. “ I feel like shit now.”

"Chloe. I'm begging you. Don't leave me. I can't do this without you..." I looked at this man who'd always thought the world owed him something, and I felt nothing. "I've drafted the divorce papers. They'll be at your office tomorrow. Sign them. Don't make me lose what little respect I have left for you." I called security and had him hauled out. Once the gallery paperwork was under control, I gave myself a long weekend. I went back to my old campus — the one by the sea. I wanted to find the girl I'd been before all of this.

Lost in thoughts as I flashed back on what happened. A few weeks ago, I thought I would never see Richard or Mia again. I thought I was lost in the depths of my own despair, never to escape the nightmare that had become my reality. But here I am, standing on the edge of a new chapter in my life, and it’s all because of him. It’s hard to even begin to explain how much I’ve been through, but I’ll try. I don’t want to dwell on the darkness that surrounded me for so long, but it feels important to share, just to understand how far I’ve come.

"How dare he think he went through it alone? How dare he abandon me like a common dog, leave me when I needed him the most! Coward!" I shake my head, a frustrated hand gripping my jaw. Images of earlier flashed. Vivian, the carriage. Her hand in mine. That feeling. The disconnection. That utter despair. I shakes my head watching her "How could he leave me?" I grunt, I do not understand how he thought first to abandon me. Without true warning. "Where did he go, Shade?" Tears stream down my cheek. "What will I do now? He was all I had. He was there, he was mine," my fists pound against my chests "He knew what I knew. He felt what I felt. Missed what I missed."

Today, the weight of my loneliness and despair finally crushed me, and I dropped to my knees, tears falling down onto the cold, unforgiving pavement, the rain pouring down on me like a wave that keeps me under with no air left. "Mother, you failed me," I choked out between sobs, my voice filled with anguish. "You left me with no one to love, no one to love me. You abandoned me, Mother. Why? Why did you have to leave me?" My voice trembled with the pain of abandonment. "My voice is silent, and yours is the only one I keep hearing, repeating 'I love you.'"

It was crazy and outrageous how he could demand this. My father’s voice kept on echoing inside my head. I did the right thing abandoning you! I did the right thing abandoning you! I did the right thing abandoning you! Once, twice, thrice, then a thousand more times. It felt like my head would burst from the pressure. "Ahhhhhhh! Fucking stopppp! I don’t care!" I screamed. Wasn’t I his child too? What was my mistake? Why did he abandon me? It was okay that he did, I learned living without him.

I look like a slut—oh wait, I am. What used to be a beautiful pair of brown eyes now staring back at me with a pair of lifeless eyes. Lips that used to smile so much now always pressed into a thin line. Bags under my eyes, hollowed cheeks. Nina, do you even recognize yourself anymore? Tears threatened to flow down from my eyes, but like always, I just blink them away. There is no use in crying now, Nina. This is now the life you have. You cannot count on anyone but yourself. Your parents did not believe in you and abandoned you. Your friends who you thought you can count on turned their backs on you. You are on your own.

I could feel the blood boiling in my veins as I broke everything. Why did everyone abandon me? Why did they leave me alone? Wasn’t I enough? Nobody cared! That was the truth. I wasn’t enough to even for my fucking mother, not even to see me once. She had simply decided to close all ties without thinking that I would need her. At least one fucking time! I shouted and threw everything before I threw myself on the ground, breathing hard. I rested with my back to bed and sat down on the ground, pulling up my knees and resting my arms crossed as I felt the tears running down my cheeks.

My curse marks burned, but I kept my voice steady: "At least I saved his life." Everly's face twisted for a moment before she laughed again. "Then why don't you tell him? Let's see who he believes - his devoted Luna or his traitorous ex-mate?" "Face it, Caroline. You're nothing but a cautionary tale now." She was right, in a way. To the packs, I would always be the mate who abandoned their Alpha King in his hour of need. After Everly left, I discovered all traces of cyberbullying had vanished from the pack networks.
