3 Chapter 3 " home , I forgot my phone and I need to tell Lily not to get out of the house because of the rogues " I said but Peter put a hand on my shoulder " I already need to get something from the house I'll stop by yours , tell Lily , and get you your phone . Where did you put it ? " " On the counter in the kitchen thanks " he nodded and was out of the door in a second . I knew it wouldn't take long considering he was probably running at wolf speed and it was dark so no one would see him . I noticed Ethan was quiet through the whole conversations which was unlike him . " What's wrong ? " I asked him, he had been my best friend for a long time . We practically grew up together . " nothing just thinking " he admitted and then forced a smile . " Um Keith " Peter came in the room with my phone in 20:12 1/7 3 Chapter 3 one hand and a piece of paper in the other " We have a problem " Immediately all of us were on high alert , our thoughts instantly going to the rogues . " Not that kind of problem " he said " It's your sister " My heart dropped , was she okay ? I noticed Ethan was at my side . " What's wrong ? " he asked worry clear on his face which confused me a bit . " Read this " he shoved a paper in front of me and I noticed Lily's handwriting almost instantly , I read it out loud " It says ' Leaving for good . I can tell when I'm not wanted . Don't worry , none of you will ever see my face again . And rest assured that means I'm leaving the pack as well . Bye ! Lily . " I lowered the paper and looked at the guys . They were all shocked as I was especially Ethan . " No way she left the pack " Alan said " She can't just leave - just like that " 20:12 217 < 3 Chapter 3 Lily , sis can you hear me ? I said using the mind link , and I could hear the others call to her too . " She really left " I said as it finally hit me " My sister's gone " I had to sit down " It's okay calm down " I heard Alan say but it wasn't to me I looked up and saw Ethan shaking and I knew he had to be extremely pissed . " Her phone " i suddenly jumped up and took my phone from Peter and dialed her number , she answered after a few rings . " hello " she said , I put it on speaker so the guys could hear " Lily where the hell are you ? " I asked angrily . She sighed " That's non of your business I explained everything I needed to explain in the note . you shouldn't have called " " What the hell do you mean ? Lily come back ! " " no " " NOW " I yelled 20:12 3/7 < 3 Chapter 3 " NO " She yelled and I shut up , Lily never yelled even when people yelled at her she was always calm " I AM TIRED OF THIS " I looked at the guys to see them just as shocked as I was . I heard her taking a deep breath " I'm tired of this " she whispered " Why should I go back to a pack that hates me and doesn't want me there ? To people who don't care about me . " I've stayed with you guys for so long and never answered you when you yelled or made fun of me . I stayed because I thought that maybe you guys care deep down . No matter what happened , I always thought you were family and made excuses for you . of you . Because you were my pack and packs have each others backs . But today I realized that even though I would do anything for you guys , you wouldn't do the same . I'm just a waste of air for you guys . " " Lily I- ' All " No don't say anything Keith . I'm throwing away my phone so don't bother calling . And tell the others that I said I love you all . Even though you don't . You were my family . " " Lily please " 20.12 417 3 Chapter 3 " Bye Keith " and just like that the line went dead and everyone was silent . My vision was blurry as tears came down my cheek . All the guys just stared at the phone in disbelief with guilt written on their faces . Ethan was on the ground with his head in his hands whispering ' no ' over and over again . " Since when do you care about Lily ? " I asked angrily " you're the one that gave her hell about everything . All of you did " I yelled Ethan's eyes were pitch black now " Shut up your no better . " he stood up and walked towards me . " It's all your fault she left after the humiliation in the parking lot of the school " I screamed " Well I never saw you helping her " He growled and I didn't answer as a thousand memories came back to me . " It's all of us " I said " We treated her like shit . It's all of our fault " I looked at the guys and saw their guilty expressions . I never intended to hurt Lily but I just got carried away . Trying to be popular . That night we had a pack meeting about the rogues 20:12 5/7 3 Chapter 3 T that were sighted near our territory and i couldn't help but glance at the empty seat where Lily used to sit . I saw everyone glance at it , especially Ethan who seemed angrier by the second . I started thinking that maybe Lily didn't lie , but I shook the thought away because Ethan would never reject his mate , even for popularity . No one would do that I just glared the whole meeting and didn't say a word , eventually Alan came up to me . " Come on calm down " he said sadly " We've all been jerks when she comes back we'll just be nicer to her " I looked at him with a ' seriously ? ' look " SHE'S NOT COMING BACK " I yelled and the whole room heard . " I'm outta here " I got up and went to my car . 20:12
