Same Old Love

Finding out who you really are

[17] I chewed on my bottom lip as I leaned down on my knees, my hands on my thighs as I burst into tears. "I'm so sorry but I promise to you two that I will do whatever it takes to keep Hannah with me as I promised. Diego might have forgotten about our promise but I won't. I won't lose Hannah. She's like my daughter, I can still picture her face, her small hands, her first words, her first walk, her first tooth. Her first everything."

I sniffed, wiping my tears away. "It's a shame you guys can't be here to see her, but I'm sure you guys are watching over her wherever you guys are." I played with my fingers on my lap, glancing up. "Watching as we messed up, you guys must be so angry at us, who wouldn't? Broken promises hurts you know? I sure know it does."

I jumped slightly when I heard a sound, "Who is it?" I stood up, dusting myself up. "Diego? Is that you?" I looked around me as I stepped back, moving away in the direction of the pack house. "Look who we have here?" I jumped in place, my chest heaving up and down scared. "The Luna of the pack, what a surprise?"

"What do you want?" I gulped down the lump in my throat, my heavy breathing giving out how scared I was but for my baby. "Hmm? What do I want?" He made his way toward me and I backed away, touching my heart in shock when I bumped into someone. "Let go of me!" I squirmed in his arms, trying to get loose.

"Can't do that sweetheart, that stupid mate of yours has what I want. Do you think I don't know that you guys are rocky? He is with my mate! Mine! He took what is mine, he is having the cake and eating it too. He took what is mine so I will easily take what is his."

The man holding me placed a cloth in front of my nose, my hands touching his as I trashed in his arms, my fight slowly dying down as I started to lose consciousness. "Let go of my mate Nacho, she has nothing to do with this."

"Aw? Well how sad. You are in this, so she will pay." Nacho spat out angrily as the man held me tighter. "You are outnumbered Nacho. Get out of my territory now!" Diego barked out at Nacho, his voice furious and beyond pissed.

"I won't leave without her. We may be outnumbered but just a flick of a finger she's dead." I breathed weak, my mind spinning with a lot of thoughts at the drug they filled my lungs with. "Diego..." I whispered softly, almost in a hum as I blinked my eyes open.

"Sh, it's okay baby. You will be okay." I don't feel good, my stomach rumbled with acid as the continents in my stomach soured their way up, gagging, the man holding me pushed me away from him as I doubled over and emptied the continent of my stomach. At that, the pack members took advantage ad attacked the man who was holding me, Diego taking care of Nacho.

"I won't kill you even though I should, get the fuck out of my land before I kill you." I heard Diego said before he made his way toward me, "Are you okay?" He helped me but I pushed him away, "You knew she had a mate?" I shook my head at him, my chest heaving up and down, "You're a bastard. I was right about leaving, I'm glad that I followed my intuition." I touched my stomach, "You will never change, I thought worse of you but this, this is the cherry over the top. You were with Sophia knowing that she had a mate, eres una basura Diego. My expectations of you keeps lowering to the floor, now I don't know what else to think."

"You left me to find space into another woman's arms, a woman who has a mate. You two did not only broke one heart but two, now thinking it through, you're just like Sophia." I laughed sarcastically with a sniff, brushing my nose, "So sad of me, thinking badly of Sophia when you are worse." I gulped down, my lips parting as I breathed out softly. 

"You, stay far away from me." I pointed at him before I whirled around on my heels and ran away from the scene. Breathing heavily when I got out of the woods, I rested a hand on my forehead as I breathed out shakily. I closed my eyes briefly, touching my stomach as I pushed my way toward my house.
