"To pick up some of Jason's stuff."

“Oh yeahI! forgot you were kidnapping him."

“It was his idea—"

“Liar."

She smiled,"

you're adorable!"

By that point, I was practically shaking with anger.

The urge to shout engulfed me and I wasn't ashamed of how much I wanted to pound her face in.

I stood up,glaring deathly at her and snapped,"

don't you ever get mad? Don't you ever just get so angry that you just wanna take it out physically on

anybody near you?"

She just smiled,"

Nope,never."

“I know you hate me.

I know you feel just as much loathing for me as I feel for you."

"You're my mate's little sister,I can never hate you."

l rolled my eyes,’ Oh please,you're full of shit."

“I gotta go—"

I grabbed her arm; Not until you admit that I frustrate you."

“But you don't—"

“Yes I do!"

I screamed,"You hate me! You pretend to like me so I'll look bad! But you're just as much of a brat!"

Her eyes turned cold, Listen here,Emmy,I've been trying to look past your hateful comments and

accept you unconditionally,but you've made it really hard to do that,and quite frankly you are becoming

a massive pain in my ass.

Let's forget what I did to you before I met your brother and move on.

Can you do that?"

I glared at her,"

You made my life hell,all throughout elementary,middle school and almost all my high school years.!

could never do anything about it because you were always a year older.

You're lucky I didn't tell Jason about you when he first found out that you two are mates."

She laughed,’ Do you realty think Jason will choose you over me? Did you see the way he yelled at you

when you snapped at me?"

“family comes before anything—"

“I'm his family now! He will—"

“What about Jared guy? Oh please,poor guy's was lucky to get away from you."

That's when I broke.

All those years of hiding in the toilets and not being able to do anything about the bully that awaited me

outside,I broke.

I could never tell Jared,not because he would try to protect me but because he'll tell my parents and I

was stupid and scared.

I remembered how shocked I was when I found out that the bully who made my life hell is actually my

brother's mate.

It was in tenth grade,two years ago.

Jason and Amanda were in eleventh grade and that's when she finally left me alone.

I still hated her though,and every time she'd come to our house.pretend like we're bffs and pinch my

cheeks.

The anger pumping in my bloodstream was so strong it was almost unexplainable.

I couldn't understand how upset and furious I was getting.

So when I jumped up and attacked Amanda,I almost completely lost track of who I am.

I landed my fist on her jaw line,satisfied with the crunching noise it made.

She leaped up into the air and attacked me,bringing me down on the ground, hitting my head on the

wooden table in the process.

I felt wetness in my hair and clutched it to find blood all over my fingers.

Amanda didn't give me a second to react.

She smashed her fists against my face,straddling me.

“You...brat!"

she screamed,’ I've tried so hard to forget what I've done to you! Can't you just let it go!"

I flipped it over,straddling herholding on to her shoulders and knocking her up and down, You ruined my

childhood! Ever since fourth grade when you moved here and thought you're all that! You can't ruin six

years of someone's life and expect to be forgiven!"

She managed to grab a glass vase on the table that I hit my bleeding head on and smashed it into my

face,knocking me back.

Her leg came up and kicked me in the stomach.

I grabbed her foot and tripped her.

She fell into the ground with a loud thud.and I hurried to straddle her again.

lost all control of my sanity as I grabbed a piece of glass and raised it above my head.

“Emerald,"

Amanda wamed, stop.

Don't do this you're not sane right now.

Drop it."

Tears streamed down my face in puddles and I couldn't understand what was happening.

Why was I so upset? It was like something had possessed my body.

I heard a sudden noise.

The front door opened and I walked in on Jason.

He froze in his spot when he took in the scene.

“What the hell are you doingEmerald?"

he shouted. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

"I ..was—"

“You're crazy!"he grabbed me by the shoulders and pushed me into the couch,picking up his mate

gently and leading her out the door.He came back after setting her in the car,’ You listen to

me,Emerald.If you ever hurt Amanda again. I'Il hurt you.

She's done nothing but be nice to you."

“Jason you don't understand—"

"Mom and dad think there's something wrong with you,and I think there is,too.

I thought they could try to help you because it must be hard,having your heart broken,shifting with no

mate and all,but if this is how you act out just because some guy broke up with you then do it on your

own time,but stay the hell away from my mate."

He exited without giving me a chance to speak, slamming the door hard with anger.

I sighed.

I really couldn't understand why I had gotten so angry.

Sure I hated Amanda for making my life hell but I was over it.

I knew I had to apologize and get myself under control quickly before Ido something dumber.
