Chapter 82 Willow *044% 11:01 I had endured numerous fears and nightmares in my life, but my greatest fear was losing Reuben. On the day that I had lost him six years ago, I thought that nothing would be able to scare me after that. However, never in my wildest imagination had I thought that the scariest nightmare of all was actually hidden deep within my heart, lying dormant until the moment that man, Dark, appeared before me. The insane glint in his mismatched eyes, his aggressive touch, and his evil smirk, everything about him awakened a primal fear inside me. After the encounter in the park, I began to have blurry images in my mind where I saw him. He was smiling at me in that same evil way in my memories that I had no idea had been stored inside me. The way he referred to me as his mate, the way he looked at me with his own sick twisted sense of love flashing in his eyes, then lust and anger in his eyes when he accused me of giving myself to Reuben. The way he touched me as if I were his possession to ruin or toy with – everything indicated that he knew me quite well, even though I couldn’t recall him. Without even wanting to, my mind filled with thoughts of him, I heard only his voice calling me Rose. That name damaged and terrified me so much that I started hallucinating, seeing every man as him. Even Reuben…. “There is always someone who is willing to disappear… if it is the only way to have you…” Every bit of resistance and struggle I had left inside shattered, my arms dropped to my sides with his blood dripping from my nails. With a kiss on my head, he slowly released my arm that he had twisted behind my back then turned around to walk out of the room. Watching his disappearing figure in front of my eyes, my heart shattered into a million pieces. I reached out a hand, my mouth opened to call him back, to stop him, but the back in front of my eyes was not Reuben’s. It was
his… My voice failed to make an identifiable sound as the image of me being pinned under him, moments away from being raped, appeared in my mind causing me to brake down into miserable s obs as Reuben left. My cries reached the ears of four figures standing out in the hallway, who had heard the entire conversation from beginning to end as they watched Reuben’s blo ody despondent figure aimlessly vanish in the corridor. Leaning against the cold wall and standing among Walter, Oran, and Bix, Ella bit her lip, clenched her fists at her sides, and immediately began to make her way towards my room. 1/3 Emergency calls only Chapter 82 $044% 11:02 “Ella… wait!” Bix was alarmed by her sudden boldness and quickly chased after her with the others. “Ella! Don’t do anything crazy!” Oran shouted, while Walter frowned as she stormed into my room. They entered seconds after her, only to find me gone. Chasing after my children’s scent, I entered the children’s ward, finding Wyatt and Lori lying unconscious on separate beds. “Wyatt… Lori…” I hugged each of their bodies one by one, while more tears streamed from my eyes. The image of them fainting right in front of my eyes had never left my mind. I had nearly lost them. I had not been able to protect them. I was a horrible mother. I was… an even worse mate. My heart constricted, all I could do was shed silent tears. A while later I wiped away my tears and kissed both of their foreheads, not wanting them to know of my depressed state. Just as I got up and moved to the middle of the room so that I could leave and let my children rest, I realized that there were four other figures in the room. I fearfully took a few steps back at the sight of Walter, Oran, and Bix, every one of whom had pairs of mismatched eyes and evil faces resembling Dark. Even their features were the same. My heart felt as if it could fail at any moment, and my whole body began shaking in terror until I saw Ella’s face.
She walked closer to me, capturing my full attention. “I knew this day would come!!” She screamed, suddenly pushing me away. “Ella, what the heck are you doing?!” Oran barked furiously at her, but she didn’t care. “You ruined him years ago, now you’ve completely destroyed what little was left of him by forgetting him all together!” She accused me, her eyes teary. “If you just wanted to disappear, then why the heck did you come back into his life? You should have just disappeared! You should never have come back here, Willow!” She screamed at me. Listening to her I broke into tears again, for some unknown reason my heart hurt and even Ceri cried in my mind. I… could feel Reuben’s heartbreak. I could feel his pain that I caused. I… really had ruined him. “ENOUGH!” Walter grabbed her arm and forced her to look at him. He had not known what Ella was going to say but he did not want her to continue, “I will kill you if you say another word to her!” “Then kill me!” Ella’s tears rolled down her cheeks, freezing Walter in place as she revealed her vulnerability for the first time. “You’re free to do whatever you like, and I’ll do what I should have done a long time ago,” she said, 2/3 Emergency calls onlyO Chapter 82 *D44% 11:02 -5 looking into his eyes. “She has the right to know every little detail about Reuben’s life that has transpired over the last six years… “Her voice was barely above a whisper. Walter’s pup eyes remained fixed on her tears, her uneven breathing mixed with soft so bs. Ella tore her eyes away from him, gently pulling her arm from his grasp, then turned to me.

Both of us looked at each other in tears, as I realized that Reuben’s story had ended with me leaving the Emerald Bright Pack, him standing at the door to my abandoned house frozen and heartbroken at my disappearance.
