One Family, Two Packs

Getting Kicked Out

Chapter 7

Olivers POV

It's been a week since I got out of the hospital. That girl, I think her name is Kristen, she seems so nice. Why is my mom telling me to stay away and not be nice to her. Maybe she is hiding something from me. I'll ask her if I can find her. She is never just out and about like everyone else, and I don't know why. When I hang out with her and our friends, she doesn't act like she is hiding anything from me. Tonight, I just wanna stay in too much is going on. Everyone is trying to make me remember and trying to figure out why my mom said to stay away from her, so when they asked, I just said I'm too tired. I guess I'll just ask the pack about her tomorrow, see what they say. I look over at the time it's already 2 in the morning, so I set aside my thoughts for now, settle into my bed, and in no time, I'm out.

I'm woken up by knocking at my door. I look at my clock, and it's 8 a.m.

"Come in!" I yell in a groggy voice.

"Good morning, sweetie." My mom says happily when she walks in. " How are you feeling today?"

"I'm good. Still can't remember anything. I do have a question about that girl you said I should stay away from. Why?"

My mom's face gets serious. "She is the daughter of Beta Kevin. Your father and I used to be like an aunt and uncle to her, and you and her used to be inseparable. One night, a few months ago, our pack got attacked by rogues, and she was helping in the fight cause she has a rare and powerful wolf. Her wolf is beautiful, all white with purple eyes. Anyway, she ran after your dad cause he was chasing a rouge that was fleeing. Upon arrival of other pack members, it looks like she killed your father, so now she is the most hated person in the pack because she worked with those rouges to get your father killed.

My eyes widen. "S-she killed my father?"

"I'm afraid so, honey. That's why I want you to stay away from her so she can't get you."

I nod. " Can I be alone."

My mother nods and leaves the room.

I'm not crying, and I don't feel like crying cause I don't remember my dad, but I will make Kristen pay for killing my father. She will live in a cottage on the pack grounds for starters, and she will earn her keep by doing some kind of job, but what cause from what I heard, all jobs have been filled. I'll just make up a job, but what? I guess I'll figure that out later. I call one of my friends.

"Hey Dallas, come see me. I'm in my room."

"Of course. I'm on my way." We hang up the phone. If anyone can find her, it's Dallas he is awesome at tracking people down. A few moments later, there is a knock.

"Come in." I say just loud enough for him to hear.

He walks in. "What's up, man?"

"I need you to find Kristen and bring her back to my room. I need to have a chat with her."

"Yeah, I'll bring her back. I think I know where she is." He responds then turns and leaves.

I sigh and think about what my mom told me. I'll just talk to her, and then I start getting a weird feeling in my head. It's blurry, but I think a memory is trying to come back. I focus on that memory and try to see what it is. I lose focus when there is a knock on my door.

"Come in." I say a little irritated.

Dallas comes in, and behind him is Kristen.

"Dallas, thank you for bringing her here. I need to speak with her privately."

He turns to leave and says something to Kristen, then walks out.

"Kristen, we need to chat." I tell her

"Um, ok," she responds in almost a whisper. If I wasn't a werewolf, I would have missed it.

"Why does my mom tell me you killed my father? Then you hang out with me and my friends, and you don't say anything? Were you hoping I wouldn't find out and you could kill me too." I'm almost yelling at this point.

"I didn't kill your father, Oliver! I'll tell you what happened again if you want, but you will believe what you want!" She has tears in her eyes at this point. "Don't you get it? Your mother hates me cause she decided to believe one warrior over someone who was like family to her and her family. Your dad was like my uncle. I loved him and would never do anything to hurt him or have him killed!" She yells while crying.

"Well, I've thought about it and I decided you will no longer live in the pack house and you will live out in a cottage on the territory out on the north side and you will earn your keep by doing some sort of job that I will make just for you. You have 3 days to move all your belongings to the cottage and after those 3 days you will come to me and I'll tell you what your job is." I tell her coldly.

"WHAT?! WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME OLIVER?!" She is full-on crying. "PLEASE OVLIVER DONT DO THIS PLEASE!"

She gets on her knees and is begging me to let her stay in the pack house. Seeing her on her knees makes my heart ache a little, but not enough for me to change my mind.

"NO MY MIND HAS BEEN MADE UP!" I yell at her. "NOW LEAVE!" I roar in my alpha tone.

Kristen POV

I flinch as he demanded me to leave. I run out and go down to my room and fling myself onto my bed, crying. The north side is almost completely bare. There are very few members that live on that side cause it's so far. I'm going to have no one.

"You will always have me."

"I know, but my family and my other friends."

"We will get through this together, ok? I promise."

I nod, and I hear a knock on the door. I'm scared to open it now cause what if it's Oliver? I hear the knocking again, and a comforting voice came through.

"Kristen, it's me, Sarah. Open the door. Dylan is with me. We want to make sure you're ok."

I dry my eyes and open the door. Before I could say anything, my sister walked right in, followed by my brother. She looks right at me.

"We already know you were crying, so don't try and say you weren't. Your face still smells salty from the tears, and your eyes are still red and puffy."

I sigh and tell them what Oliver said to me. I was crying again after a sentence. My brother and sister didn't say anything for a few minutes. Both just hugged me and let me cry.

Dylan was the first to break the silence.

"What the hell is he thinking?! Why, after all these months, is he making you leave?"

"I think someone said something to him about the night his dad got killed. I think they took advantage of him not remembering and planted that in his head." I told both of them.

Sarah looks at me and Dylan, and she is telling me I should tell him about everyone meeting up. I nod.

"Hey Dylan, there is something I have to tell you, and it will probably make sense why this is just happening now."

He looks over at me and gives me a look to continue. I told him that the last few months, everyone was meeting up and hanging out. I told him that Sarah joined our group very recently. He takes a minute and lets everything seep in.

"Ok yea things make a lot more sense. Now we have to find a way for him to know and believe in the truth and hopefully before 3 days."

Sarah and I nod. We come up with a few plans but as we start going on the plans we find a hole in every plan, who told him and if it was just a random pack member we could change his mind. If it was someone he trusted, there was a big chance we wouldn't. I was getting tired of me crying and thinking of plans. I decided to take a nap before dinner. I told them both not to say anything to anyone, especially mom and dad, not yet at least. They agree and head out, and I get ready to take my nap. I get settled in bed and take a much needed nap. I mindlink Sarah.

"Wake me up before dinner. I don't want lunch."

"You got it."
