My Miracle Luna
Chapter 48

{Kendrick's

P.O.V.}

"We're leaving," Lorenzo said.

"What do you mean by 'we'?!" I asked standing from my seat looking at them.

"I'm leaving with Lorenzo," Rylee answered.

"WHAT?!" we all shouted. I ran around from the desk and grabbed her shoulders.

"Rylee, why?"

"I don't want to be here anymore," she said softly. "I can't be here anymore, it hurts too much," her eyes glistened with tears. "Sweetheart, you can't leave us. You're the Luna, we need you here," Grace said to her.

"I'm sorry Aunt Grace, but I can't be the Luna. I'm not strong enough anymore. My bond with Wyatt is broken, and I can't bear to see him with so much hatred towards me anymore. It just hurts too much, and I can't take it any longer. I love Wyatt so much, but he hates me, and it's just too much to handle,"

"Mr. Rossi, did you coerce her!?" Ronan asked.

"No he didn't," Rylee replied. "I asked him. I wasn't even aware that he had threatened you all until the other day,"

"Rylee, give us time to fix this," I said to her. "Come on, this isn't over yet,"

"I'm sorry Kendrick, I'm sorry everyone, but I just can't do this anymore. Three weeks of pure unadulterated hate from the person who's supposed to love and cherish you is just too much pain for me. My powers are all out of control, and I'm afraid that if Wyatt does anymore mean things to me, I'm going to snap and I can afford to hurt anyone with my loss of control," she was doing this for us. She didn't want to unintentionally hurt us if she lost control of her powers. "But, Rylee, you're..."

"I'm okay, Aunt Grace. I can handle it, and Lorenzo will be there to help me. He's lived a long time, and I'm sure he knows people who can take care of me when the time comes," I didn't understand what Rylee was saying. When what time comes? I thought to myself. "Rylee, please don't leave," Melody said. I turned around and saw that she and Milan were on the brink of tears.

"I'm sorry Melody, I'm sorry Milan, but it's over. Wyatt doesn't want me anymore, regardless of what caused the change, and I don't want to be here any longer,"

"Rylee tell me what you need. Tell me what I can do to get you to stay," I tell her. Pleading with her to change her mind.

"There's nothing you can do Kendrick," she said coldly. "Thank you everyone for loving me for me and giving me a home for the last few months. I'll never forget any of you, and I will always love you. You're the family that I never got to have, and I'm so grateful for the time I got to have with you," "Rylee, please," I begged her.

"Jason, will you please look after Victor? And please make sure that when the rogue issue is figured out and fixed, that he gets home to his family. Nothing is more than important than getting him home to his family, and any of the other missing people that you guys save. Melody, I pray that you and Michelle have healthy and smooth pregnancies and I'm sorry that I can't be there for you guys for when they're born. Aunt Grace, Uncle Ronan, thank you for sharing all of your memories of my parents with me and thank you for being the parents that I never got to have. Kendrick, thank you for being the big brother that I never had. You and Wyatt were there for me when I was alone, and you both gave me hope of a better life. You're going to make a great Alpha," I couldn't help the tears that were falling from my eyes. Rylee was really going to leave. "Will you please give this to Wyatt, after I'm gone?" she asked while handing me a note and a jewelry box. I took them from her.

Without another word, she turned her heel and left. Lorenzo looked at all of us and bowed his head.

"I promise to look after her with great care. No harm will come to her," he said and also left. I turned to look at everyone and we were all shocked. No one said anything, Grace and the girls were crying while Jason and Ronan looked like they wanted to rip Wyatt's head off. The sudden shock of her leaving finally snapped and I ran after her. As if they also finally came to their senses, everyone was running after me as well.

"RYLEE!!" I shouted as I skipped down the stairs as fast as I could. "RYLEE COME BACK!!!" I sent a mind link to guards,

Stop the Luna! Do not let her or Lorenzo leave!!!

YES, BETA!!

Who was I kidding? I already knew they didn't stand a chance against Rylee and Lorenzo, but I had to try and stall. But by the time, I got the front door, it was wide open, and the guards were on the ground groaning. "What the f**k happened!?" I asked. Jason and Ronan were helping them to their feet.

"Mr. Rossi, he lifted us in the air and made us collide with each other and then we dropped us from a height of twenty feet," one of the guards said. "Where are they!?"

"They used their speed, Beta, they're already at the gate," we were too late.

{Rylee's P.O.V.}

After William knocked around the guards, he and I used our super-speed to get to the gate of the territory. He took care of the guards at their posts by keeping them down on the ground with his powers without hurting them. I stood on the outskirts of the border of our territory looking back at the territory and the small bit of the castle that I could see. It looked so small from this spot.

"Rylee, it's time," William said to me. I looked at him and couldn't help the tears. I looked back at my pack, my home, and held my chest as I as muttered the next words,

"I, Ryan Lee Duquesne..." I paused to catch my breath. "...and my unborn child hereby cut all ties and alliances with the Blue Lake pack. I also hereby lay down my title and position as Luna," I felt my bond with my pack break and the pain of losing the bond with over 800 people was like a stone bridge collapsing. I was seriously hating this next part.

"Rylee, we don't have much time, I can't hold down these guards forever," I look at the guards who had pain in their eyes. They just witnessed me cut all ties with them, and they were hurt. I mouthed the words 'I'm sorry' to them and looked back at the territory. I held my heart knowing that this next part was going to be worse, and it was going to hurt, a lot.

"I, Rylan Lee Duquesne, re...reject you Wy...Wyatt Valencia, as my mate," I felt our bond fully break and a pain I never experienced before enveloped over my body forcing me to my knees. "AHHHH!!!!!" I screamed at the top my lungs from the pain and the tears of the anguish of losing the love of my life flooded down my face like a waterfall. My cries shook the gates of the pack and I shot out a force so great it actually broke the iron gates and ripped out several dozen trees from their roots. I didn't even know how long I was on my knees crying until William came to my side,

"Rylee, we must go," William helped me to my feet, and held me by my shoulder with one arm, while he carried our two bags in his other hand. I looked back once more with blurred vision, and said these final words,

"I love you, Wyatt," before turning away and leaving for good. {Wyatt's P.O.V.}

I was sitting on the couch in my commons area thinking of everything that had been happening since I came back. It's been three weeks since I apparently disappeared, and three weeks where nothing made any more sense. Kendrick was right about one thing though; I was missing something. Almost everyone adored Rylee, and almost everyone was angry at me. I honestly thought it had to do with her putting a spell on them, but then I saw that not everyone actually liked her.

It happens in a pack as big as this. You have to respect the ranked members, but it doesn't mean you have to like them, and that's what I started to notice. Pack members respected her, but not all of them actually liked her, which meant that my family and friends weren't under a spell. Could Rylee really be my mate and Luna, and I was just not remembering? But that didn't make sense. I've always dreamed of having my mate and a Luna for my pack. I would never forget someone as important as my mate. "UGH!" I grunted and rubbed my face. Suddenly, there was a knock on my door. I went to go open it, and I was surprised at who I saw,

"Hi, Wyatt,"

"Layla?"

"So, you do remember me," she said and waltzed into my room. I close the door behind her and just looked at her.

"What are you doing here?"

"Well," she said and casually sat on my bed crossing her legs, "I was thinking, since you've been under a lot of stress lately, I could help you relieve some of it," "Layla, we've been through this, that was a one-time thing,"

"Come on, Wyatt. I'm unmated, you're unmated, we're both lonely, and we both know that we can pleasure each other," she said seductively. "So, what do you say?"

"Layla, that's not a good idea, my sister would kill me,"

"She already knows we had s*x once, and she didn't kill you for that time, why would this time be any different?" she replied and started to strut towards me. I had to admit, Layla wasn't a bad looking she-wolf, even if our first time together I was drunk, I knew what I was doing when I took her to bed.

"Layla, we shouldn't," Blade was hounding me to push her away, and Kendrick's words about not sleeping with anyone was playing in the back of my mind.

"Please, Wyatt," she begged sweetly and started to rub my d**k in my sweats. "Oh, what's this? It seems as if your body knows what it wants," I couldn't help the moan that came out of my mouth. I couldn't even remember the last time I had s*x with someone, which was strange because I would have sworn that it wasn't that long ago, but I couldn't remember who it was with.

"Layla, stop," I said to her, but she didn't. She pulled down my sweats, got down on her knees, and started to s**k my d**k. I had to admit, it felt good, but it didn't feel right. It almost felt...wrong.

Wyatt! Snap out of it!

Blade, what is wrong with you!?

She's not our mate!

One blow-job can't hurt.

SNAP OUT OF IT!!!!!

He practically roared in my head making me push Layla back.

"What's wrong?" she asked a concern. I held my head from how loud Blade just snapped at me. He had never done that before. "Wyatt?" I stood against the wall holding myself up as my head kept ringing. Layla put her hands on me, to help me stay steady. "Get off," I pushed her away.

"What?" something didn't feel right. Blade was never that demanding, and it was almost threatening. Once my ears stopped ringing, I pulled my pants up and slid to the floor. "Wyatt!?"

"Shut up, Layla! I have a f*****g headache and I don't need you adding to it,"

"What the hell is happening, this isn't part of the plan," I heard her mutter and I looked up at her. I wanted to ask what she meant by that when I heard screaming outside of my room. I stood up and opened the door and saw Kendrick and everyone running down the stairs screaming for Rylee to come back.

I shook off my delirium and followed after them, but by the time I made down to the bottom step, I felt a sudden emptiness inside of me. The loss of a pack member, and an important one. I looked around, and pups were screaming in confusion, women were crying, and men were holding their mates. Those that weren't crying, screaming, or consoling someone, they were staring daggers at me. I ran out the front door and two of the guards were being held up by Jason and my dad. My sister, mom, and Milan were also crying holding each other, and Kendrick was on his knees bowing his head.

I was going to ask what just happened, and what pack member just left the territory when a breeze swept by carrying a faint and broken voice,

"I, Rylan Lee Duquesne, reject you Wyatt Valencia, as my mate," As soon as the last word played itself, I felt the worst pain in my entire life ripped its way through my body. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't think, I couldn't see, I couldn't do anything. So, I did the only thing I could do,

"AHHHH!!!!!" I roared and fell to the ground. I was in the fetal position as the pain made its way through my body. It felt like a million knives were stabbing me over and over, but the worst pain came from my chest. The feeling of my heart beating a million miles an hour, and it suddenly shattering into a million pieces was out of this world. Blade was howling and practically yelping in pain.

She was my mate. Rylee really was my mate. She just rejected me, and the pain was nothing that I ever imagined it would be. It felt worse than wolfsbane being pumped into your system. Rylee, that beautiful blonde was my mate. Then it clicked, she's the one who left. The Luna left her pack, and it was all my fault. But why couldn't I remember her?

"Wyatt!!" I heard my name, but I couldn't see who was talking to me. My vision was blurred with tears and blackened by the pain of Rylee leaving the pack...Leaving me. The pain was so excruciating, I started to have trouble breathing, and then next thing I knew, I was coughing up blood, and becoming more and more delirious.

"Quick, we need to get him to the hospital!" I heard someone shout, but not knowing who. The only person that I could think of was Rylee. My Rylee, my mate, my Luna, the girl I had no memory of. Why couldn't I remember my own mate? I felt my world crumbling, and I wanted to be swallowed up into the depths of earth's core. I hurt the one woman I was meant to love, all because I refused to believe that she was my mate, even though everyone was telling me she was.

I felt myself cough up more blood, as my body was being dragged somewhere. I never felt so useless, so worthless, and so ashamed. I hurt the Luna, I tried to kill her. I tried to kill my mate, my love, but yet, I can't remember ever loving her. I felt my consciousness swaying, and I thought perhaps I was going to die from the rejection. It's what I deserved after what I had done. Just as darkness was taking over, I heard one last faint voice in my head, before I fell into obliteration. "I love you, Wyatt."
