Moonlight In Chains (Trinity and Asher) novel Chapter 26

Gage stood there staring at Asher and I in shock before he simply turned around and walked away

without saying a word to either of us.

He didn’t close my door and Alpha Dennis was right behind him, which we didn’t know. But I quickly

I

put my shirt back on and Asher stood up with a look on his face like he was waiting for the abuse

that he was about to cop from his father.

“Asher. Get down to the office. Now.” Alpha Dennis demanded.

“Wait. This isn’t on Asher.” I said, rushing forward.

Trinity. It’s fine. Just stay here.” Asher said, pulling me back.

I looked at him but he just nodded at me and walked past me as he left the room.

He closed the door behind him and I was left standing in my room, feeling confused, guilty, pissed.

I had too many emotions running through me right now.

I couldn’t let Asher take the fall for something that wasn’t his fault. And I had a feeling that he wasn’t going to tell his father the truth.

He wasn’t going to tell anyone that he was my mate.

Everything was so screwed up now and it was all because of me. I wasn’t sure how I was going to make this better. Asher obviously didn’t want me to get involved with it.

I paced around my room for a little bit thinking about what to do, but I couldn’t think straight. Not in

this bedroom. Not in this house.

So i grabbed my phone and put it in my jeans pocket and I grabbed my wallet and I left my room.

I walked down all flights of stairs, seeing Arlo and Nicole fooling around in the living room but I walked to the front door and I went outside the house.

I started walking across the field that was next to the packhouse and there were warriors training but I didn’t pay any attention to them.

I don’t know where Gage went, but I didn’t really care right now.

I walked through town without a clear direction. I didn’t know where the hell I was going. Not until I actually got there.

I saw that I was standing in front of my old house. The one that I shared with my family.

I stood there staring at it.

It had been abandoned since they were arrested and left town. And it was being searched daily to make sure they didn’t sneak back and were hiding in the house.

The Alpha was taking every precaution to make sure they didn’t take advantage of the pack or plan an attack on the pack from the inside.

I slowly walked up towards the front veranda and I walked up the stairs.

I slowly turned the door handle and I walked inside.

The whole atmosphere of the house was strange.

Echoes of my parents abusing me, screaming at me, hitting me–they all lingered. But I pushed through.

I walked into the living room and looked around, remembering my parents sitting on the couch waiting for me to come home.

When I turned to look in the kitchen, I saw my mother standing at the stove cooking dinner for

herself, dad and Spencer. Never for me.

Every room held some sort of horror story for me. But this was the only home I had ever known. I

grew up in this house for my whole life. I never knew anywhere else.

Even living in the packhouse now, I still felt like I didn’t belong there. Like that place wasn’t for me.

I walked towards the back of the house and when I reached the end of the hallway, I stopped at the

window that looked out the back of the house.

There was another house sitting behind us but I knew that it was only a couple of blocks to the

cemetery.

I walked out the back door and I headed across the neighbors property and I walked a couple of

streets away until I got to the entrance to the cemetery.

I hesitated for a moment before I walked onto the property and I knew exactly where to go.

When I got to Dane’s grave, there was a large headstone sticking up with a small picture of him on

1. it.

I sat in front of the headstone staring at it for what seemed like a really long time.

“I’m sorry I haven’t been here to see you lately. I’ve been a little preoccupied. I honestly hope that you don’t know what’s been going on here since you died. I’d like to think that you’re looking down on me, but there are some things that I hope you didn’t see. I really miss you big brother. I’ve made such a mess of everything and I don’t know how to fix it. I don’t know what the f**k I am doing anymore. I feel more alone now than ever. Even after the Alpha took me in and let me live with

them. I feel like I’ve just abused that trust.

Asher won’t tell them that we’re mates. And I’m a little pissed because I know that you would have known before I turned 18. You never said anything to warn me. I know I was only 14 when you died, but a little warning would have been nice. I don’t know why everything has to be such a secret.

Gage hates me and the look that he gave me today is something that I will never forget. I will never forgive myself for doing that to him, not for the rest of my life.

I never led him on. I really didn’t. At least…I don’t think I did. We were best friends and that’s the way I always treated him. I was never handsy with him. I never intentionally made him think that I was romantically interested in him. We’ve just always had fun together. I hate myself for everything

right now.

I know you don’t want to hear this. I’m sorry for dumping all this crap on you big brother. I love you. And I miss you every day. Don’t ever forget that.”

When I got up I turned around and I took a deep breath before I walked back to my old house.

As soon as I got there I walked through every room of the house and I looked at the backyard that I

had.

We had a lot of space in the backyard and I thought that it would be big enough.

I started upstairs in my parents bedroom.

I went into their wardrobe and I started throwing everything out of the window into the backyard and then their personal effects, my mothers jewelry and s**t like that. And then their furniture.

I dragged the biggest furniture down the stairs and threw them out the backdoor.

But I did the same thing with my brother’s room. Throwing everything into the backyard and when I was finished, I walked out the back and made sure that they were in a pile and not too close to the
