Chapter 1 Too Hard To Say Goodbye

Lupe, Lupe, Lupe come here baby Mrs. Laura yelled from her room, mom am coming, Lupe answered as she hastily wiped her tears and went to the room to answer her mother.

saying goodbye to her childhood friend was something she never thought she would be doing anytime soon but she had to, it's all for the best, I have to let her go!

The truth is that she and Gracie were inseparable, they became friends when they met at their local church at the age of 2 and 14 years later, they had become more like sisters.

the month of June is a very special month for Lupe and Gracie as they always mark their birthdays together with Lupe's overprotective twin brother Emmanuel".

Mom, Lupe called as she entered the room and sat down next to her mom, mom she called again, am here mom,

My baby, I don't know how to tell you this but I will be leaving Mexico soon Mrs. Laura managed to say in one sentence.

Why what happened mom Lupe asked surprised and angry at the same time, Gracie left today because she wants to study abroad and mom is also leaving, who knows Emma will also leave as well, I don't know why everyone is leaving, she thought to herself.

My dear, Mrs. Laura said softly while taking a deep breath to calm her nerves, baby I got a job offer that can change our lives for good, the pay is good and it's a lifetime opportunity to improve our standard of living.

Mom Lupe said, I don't know what to say.

Say something my dear, don't you want me to go Mrs. Laura asked her calmly!

Yes I want you to stay here with us Lupe said calmly but mom, to be frank, am happy for you, am happy for us but am still sad that you are leaving, it's going to be hard not having you around here, we have never been separated, am sad and happy at the same time. Mum, a part of me wants you to stay, another part wants you to go.

Baby In as much as I don't want to be separated from my family I also want to give them a better life and there are lots of opportunities in the United States, think about it this way, I will go there, get settled, and then send for you, your brother and your dad, how do you see it, my love?.

Oh, Mum, it's ok Lupe answered, trying so hard to avoid the question, I think we all have to learn how to adapt, we will be fine and we will be together soon that's all that matters.

Thank you my dear Mrs. Lupe replied while hugging her, I wish your brother could be more understanding like you, I didn't want him to find out the way he did!

What happened mom, Lupe asked curiously.........

Your brother overheard my phone call conversation with my friend Lisa then he got angry and stormed off.

Mum my brother tends to overreact sometimes because he's too soft and sensitive, don't take it to heart, Just give him some time to process things, he will come around.

I certainly hope so my dear, I just wish he could be more understanding like you.

Mom, I will talk to him ok, let me go and look for him Lupe Said, I love you, mum,

I love you too baby!

They hugged each other tightly, you are so beautiful mom Lupe said and left the room in search of her twin brother".

She searched the whole house but still no sign of him, she decided to check their usual hideout, the family farm nearby!

My Better half, Emma, Emma my love, little brother, Lupe called while searching round the trees, Stop calling me little brother, am your twin, we are age mates Lupe, Emmanuel yelled.

Huh I got you better half, I have searched all over for you, you thought you could hide from me, I knew you would show up once I call you that Lupe said"

You know me too well Sis, I just needed a quiet spot to cool off Emma said while hugging his sister, sis am just sad!

I know brother but you can always talk to me, am ever ready to listen to you, am your best friend, Lu mom is leaving, and am so sad Emmanuel said tearfully!

I know but it's for the best, don't you think so, you know is also hard for her too, Lupe said,

You don't understand Lupe Emmanuel cuts in, then make me understand dear brother Lupe said while staring straight at her twin brother"

In one week, mom will leave us, the notice is too short, we have never been separated from her, why can't we all stay together like we used to Emma said and sighed deeply.

You know mom would never accept the offer if it was not worth it, I understand how you feel, Gracie never left my side before but I have to let her go. I know it's not the same thing but it almost feels the same,

hmmm she stopped briefly and continued, I still think you need to talk to mom, talking about it can help ease the tension Lupe said trying to make her brother see reasons with her.

Ok sis, you know why you are so special to me, you have the remedy to all my problems, talking with you makes me feel alright whenever am down, you just lifted my spirit I love you, Lupe, Emmanuel said.

I love you too dearest brother, seeing you smile always soothe my worries,

Lupe said softly while smiling...

Let's go swimming later I have to talk to Mum now Emma said smiling broadly,

It's okay better half, hurry up brother, don't keep mum waiting.

At home, Mrs. Laura is seen pacing up and down the room feeling restless, just then someone hugged him from behind, mom am sorry for storming off like that Emma said apologetically!

oh my dear it okay, Mrs. Lupe replied, mom just that I was caught unawares but after speaking to a special person, I think I understand everything now he said while smiling at Lupe.

Come here baby Emma said trying to mimic how their mom calls Lupe, Lupe smiles and joins them in a hug.

Just then Mr. Arturo entered the living room and sees the heart-touching scene"

Hello family am back he said smiling like a little boy, special hugs for you my loves, he said as he joins them in a hug, what did I miss my love, you missed a lot sweetheart Mrs. Laura replied...

She didn't have a wolf. That's what everyone thought about her. When she found her mate, he wanted her to be his slut and not a wife. She might be an omega, but it doesn't mean she will take disloyalty and betrayal lightly. So she did something that no one in history ever did. She rejected an Alpha. "I, Alexis Clark, reject Brandon Sterling, the alpha of Black mist pack, and consider myself a free soul until I decide so."; Were her last words before she left that torturous place and became a rogue. A rogue that everyone was fearing and finding. Why? Because she was the rogue that has become one of the biggest problems of almost all the packs in the country. She was Alexis Clark. A rogue that rejected an Alpha, stealth food, kill other rogues, and more than that was living with humans and studying with them. What will happen when her case is given to the world's most dangerous alpha, Sebastian Sinclair, who has taken it upon himself to punish this rogue. The one who hated rogues and omega to a level that was beyond understanding. Why? Because his mate was an omega, who betrayed him with a rogue before dying. How will Alexis tackle this alpha, in whose College she was studying and living under hiding for almost a year? What will Sebastian do when he finds out the new girl he had been talking to is none other than the rogue omega that he had decided to kill? "To love you with all my might was my only wish, but you were the only one who gave me endless suffering. So today, I promise myself to not fall for anyone."; A simple saying that both Alexis and Sebastian had vowed upon. Will they be able to find their love amidst all these problems?
