Chapter Twenty One

CHAPTER TWENTY ONE

I still can't believe he banished me. After everything that's happened, everything I've been through, I thought I had finally found my true mate. My one chance of happiness. And now he's gone too.

I don't know what to do or where to go. I have no pack. No home. No mate. Nothing.

I'm not even sure I have a reason to live. But I do know I don't want to die in this fire. So I run.

I run for miles and miles, moving in a straight line. I'm not sure where I'm going, I just know that I need to go as far away from here as possible.

The tears are welling up in my eyes. I know I need to be strong, but I can't help myself. I fall down to my knees and sob. I think about everything I've lost. My pack. My sense of safety and security. My chance to fit in with a new pack. And now, I've lost my true mate-- been banished by him all because of the lies of a jealous rival.

It's like I'm stuck in a never-ending nightmare.
