Kenda Leaving
I have everything packed and I will get a ride to the bus station from the future alpha Aiden. He wanted to talk with me more before I left altogether.
I don’t know why he would want to do that. It’s not like my father would approve of him. I know my father would rather see me dead than be a Luna in the Elite pack where his oldest son is now.
I know I will never get his approval. I know when I get home I will say goodbye to my mother and my little brother then I will go rogue. It’s rare for a female to be rogue and usually not allowed for long.
I will be an Alpha and I can start my pack if I’m approved by the council. That may or may not be a problem depending on how I leave my family.
I was so lost in thought I didn’t realize what time it was until my brother Keme came to get me telling me that Aiden was ready to take me to the bus station. I got my things with my brother’s help and we went to Aiden’s car.
It was a little awkward at first. It soon turned fun Aiden made the drive interesting so to speak. I never felt this way about anyone before so it was all new to me. I thought he was cute, but stuck on himself and I felt drawn to him but I wasn’t sure why.
So I brushed it off as a simple little crush and know that it would never work between us.
“You know you don’t have to leave. We could just request you to join this pack.” Aiden said
“My father would never let me if it wasn’t for a mate. There will be only three ways out of my father's pack for me.” I responded.
“What are they?” Aiden asked
“Finding my mate, Going rogue, or death. Those are the only ways I will get out of my father’s pack and even if I went rogue, I won’t guarantee he would let me live.” I said with a sad look on my face.
“That would go against the council if he tried that,” Aiden explained
“We don’t have to answer to your council since we were here way before you and before the council ever started. We are above the council. It would take a lot to bring my father down. Someone would have to go to the high Indian council to get him in trouble then you better have lots of proof.” I explained.
“Wow, and I take a few to go to them?” Aiden wondered
“No, because they look at everything and then their seer will tell them if it's true or not. That gives the final vote to what they will do.” I went on telling him.
“If you go, rogue, you can always come to my pack and I will help you,” Aiden told me.
“I couldn’t go to you for help. That would be the first place he would look for me because of how close I am to Keme. I would never want to put him in that spot with our father.” I said and left it at that.
I knew I did this but I couldn’t talk about this anymore. I needed to keep my head about me when I got home. I left my brother a letter explaining everything to him so he knew that one day I would be back in touch with him. This way dad couldn't blame him and he only had to get through six months before he could pledge everything over to his new pack.
That as soon as I can I would come to see him but it would have to be after my eighteenth birthday. I told him I loved him and that there was no other choice for me. I also had a similar letter to my mother and the little brother. Soon we arrived at the bus station and the bus would be here in fifteen minutes.
After talking with Aiden about my father made me realize no one could do this for me. It was something I had to do for myself.
“Thank you for the ride to the bus station Aiden,”
“No problem. Here is my number if you need me for anything. Call me anytime.”
“Thank you, Aiden, just keep my brother safe and he will serve you well.”
“I will and thank you for the help with my pack”.
“Your welcome and I must go now. Bye” Walking off and getting onto the bus to head home where my biggest battle was yet to come. It will take a little over two hours to get home, then another hour for my mother to come to get me. My father was nowhere to be found, so I figured this would be a good time to talk with my mother.
“Mother, we need to talk,” I informed her.
“I know. I think you need to leave and go, rogue. Your father is not who he used to be. It is no longer safe for you here. He is feeling threatened by you and you haven’t even come into all of your alpha powers yet. You need to tell him tonight and leave as rogue as soon as you can after that. Don’t stay too long or something bad will happen, I can feel it.” Luna Anemy told her daughter.
“I was thinking the same thing, mother. I will need a copy of our heritage as soon as you can send it to Keme. He will know how to get a hold of me. I will not be there because I don’t want father going after him. I will leave you and Qalwtaqa letters under my bed. That way you will always know how much I love you both. Please make sure that Qalwtaqa knows the truth of why I left. He will make a good alpha one day as long as a dad can’t brainwash him. I just wish I knew where my father has gone.” I explained to her mother knowing it would be the last time I talk to her in a long time if ever.
I didn't know where I would go just yet, but I knew I would finish school and then go to college. I just had to get the pack alpha of that area's permission to be there.
So, I figured I would go to my brother's pack but not stay anywhere near them because my father would check there first. So, I texted Aiden and told him to inform my brother of the plan and when it would happen. Then I asked them for permission to stay in their territory so I could finish school and then go to college.
They granted it, and Aiden said he would set up an apartment under a different name for me and have new identification waiting until I was in the clear of my father.
I wanted them to understand that Keme is not to know where I am because our father will try to break him until he’s six months old and he can completely become theirs.
I am having everything shipped to Keme and hope that one day I will get it from him. Thank you for your help. I will tell you when I am headed your way in wolf form.
I knew I couldn’t text Keme because my father would find out, so this way he would not find out what is going on until it's too late. He didn’t pay for my phone; it's what I earned from the odd jobs I did. He didn’t know I had it. My mother doesn’t even have a phone because my father is a control freak. Plus, he thinks we don’t need things like that. He is too old-fashioned at times with his way of thinking, and something has been off about him since we found out that I’m more alpha than any of his sons. He was not happy to learn that. I heard my father come in and ask what was for dinner; mother answered, and I figured I would go and see his mood.
“Good evening Father,” I said while looking at him.
“What have we told you about looking me in the eyes?” Alpha Algonquin said.
“Sorry, father. I am here to speak with you,” I replied.
“What do you need to talk to me about?” Alpha Algonquin asked.
“I’m here to tell you I will leave your pack. I’m going to go rogue and to give us both space. I don’t know what I did to make you hate me so, but I no longer can live that way. I will leave once we are done here,” I explained.
“We are done here, and once you take one step out that door, you are no longer my daughter but a stray. I will give you twenty minutes to get off my land before I call for the guards,” Alpha Algonquin told me.
“Understood Father.” I walked to my mother and a little brother and kissed them goodbye and then grabbed my bag off the stairs and took off out the door. I knew I needed to run as fast as I could because I knew my father had no intention of giving me twenty minutes to get off the land. I was right too; he took a whole ten minutes before he called for the guards to find the stray. It was a good thing I could outrun most pack members. I felt them coming right before I crossed over to the Gray Moon Pack, and I knew it wouldn’t be long before their guards found me, so I called Aiden to tell him I was on my way.
I could hear the Gray Moon Pack's patrol, and they just found my scent, and I knew they would look for me. I needed to mask my scent. I forgot to do that before I crossed over. Once that was done, I made my way out of their territory and into the Elite Pack territory. I called Aiden to tell him to get his guards off of me, and they were chasing me. I didn’t want to hurt them, knowing they were doing their job. I ran for the packhouse, and there were my brother and Aiden waiting for the threat to show itself.
“That’s Kenda running at us,” Keme yelled.
“Guards stand down and let her pass,” Aiden yelled.
“I can’t stay long. Father will have called Alpha Elijah about me soon. I do not understand what he will tell him either. So I just came to say goodbye, and we will talk soon. Plus, you will need to send for my things and say you want to remember me how I used to be,” I said and was about to leave when Alpha Elijah came out. I was just about to run.
“Don’t move Kenda. Come inside and talk to me now. There won’t be much time before he comes here,” Alpha Elijah said. We all walked inside and into Alpha Elijah's office where Luna Lucy was waiting.
“As you already know, your father has called to inform us you went rogue, that you trashed the house and came close to hurting your mother. I know that is not a true cause I have requested to talk with your mother and he denied that. Which told me he was lying. So, he knows I do not believe him and he is coming here to talk to his son about you. Also, try to make you come home. You don’t have to go since it was all in writing you had a six-month trial. He can’t make you go along as you are happy. Does everyone understand? Keme and Aiden I need you guys to give me a minute with Kenda?” Alpha Elijah said.
“Yes Alpha,” Keme acknowledged and left the room. Aiden didn’t say a word when he left; he just looked at me as he walked out the door.
“Kenda, we have everything arranged for you to go to school under a different name. You will have to just keep your scent masked while you are at school. We also have you a place near the school you should be safe from your father,” Alpha Elijah explained.
“Thank you, all of you. I will need to leave. I know my father was on his way here when he was talking to you,” I explained.
“Aiden will take you to your apartment and stay with you for the night to keep you safe for now,” Alpha Elijah said. Then Aiden and I walked out to leave and heard my father yelling at my brother. Aiden took me out the back to leave without being noticed. I hated leaving this way and let my brother take the heat with him. It didn’t sit well with me.
