Deepest Deception

Chapter Six

Nayeli-

I managed to crawl out of bed to slump down on the couch. A week had passed and it all still felt like a dream. He couldn't be gone, I'm gonna wake up and this will all be a nightmare. I heard a knock at the door and I couldn't even be bothered to respond. A few seconds passed and there was another knock.

R-"Nay, will you please talk to me. Let me explain."

N-"Go away, Remi. I could care less if I ever spoke to you again."

R-"Nayeli, he wasn't right for you and you know it deep down."

N-"That wasn't your choice to make, damnit!"

Another few moments passed and he finally left. I've spent the past week in these four walls. Almost like I have imprisoned myself to my own room. Yet, nothing outside the four walls excited me anymore. He was my everything and Remi stole that from me. He stole my happiness. How can my family support him, allow him under this roof after what he did. Don't I matter, don't how I feel matter? I don't think I can stay here anymore. Everything here reminds me of Lakken. What we were, what we could've been. The memories should be good, they should make me happy, but they don't. It all just makes it hurt a thousand times worse. The aches in my heart feel like I'm stabbed thousands time, over and over again. So, that's it, my decision is final. I'm leaving and I'm not telling anyone where I'm going. They don't care about me now, they shouldn't when I disappear either. Time to pack.

Remi-

Each day I find myself outside her door, multiple times a day. I know what happened, happened out of anger and rage, but it also needed to be done. It's our way of life and Nayeli was not raised to go against years of tradition. So, once again, I standing here knocking on her door. Nothing, she doesn't even respond, then when she finally does she send me away. I make my way to the foyer, before bumping into mom.

M-"Has she said anything to you yet?"

R-"No, unless you count her shoeing me away talking to me. I really messed up this time, mom"

M-"She was in love and you took that from her, I can't imaging how she's feeling. If I lost you dad, a hot mess would be an understatement."

R-"He's your mate, mom, that's completely different."

M- " You keep saying that, but is it really different? To her she's was in love."

I'm confused, is mom taking her side? She can't, there is no sides in this! It's a clear cut and dry situation. What's right is right and what's wrong is wrong. This time, Nayeli was completely wrong. Although she's gotta come out at some point today because his funeral is at two and I know she won't miss that. Screw this, I need to talk to dad, he's gotta be in his office. I pivoted on my heel and turned towards the hall that led straight to his office. Knocking on doors has become a hobby of the day as tap my knuckles three swift times on the door. On the third knock the door just eased open and I just popped my head in to see if he had company.

D-"Any updates, from patrol, who what crossed the borders last night. Mrs. Bosserman keeps calling me to give her updates. Apparently, whatever or whoever it was spooked her cub, Destiny."

R-"Yes, actually, I had just head back from Darren right before I tried talking to Nay, again. A rogue was, quickly, passing through. Darren touched base with him and he said he's already gone he escorted him towards the other border, so he wouldn't spook anyone else."

D-"Thankfully, that's all it was, we got enough drama around here to last for a while. Speaking of we need to meet with our lawyer about the incident soon. I told him that soon as the dirt settled and Nayeli came around the entire family would meet him at his office.
