Chapter three: Ex-boyfriend
Jackson's POV:
I watched as Shaylea rushed off abruptly making me confused, then I understood when I felt her ex boyfriend's aura. I went back to the conversation at hand as I knew this was something she had to handle on her own, I can only help so much but now she has to handle these types of situations by herself.
"Do you know where Shaylea's going?" Jin asked as they also watched her rush off.
"Probably needed to go to the bathroom or had something important to do," I told them trying not to seem like I was lying to them.
"Anyways, why are you boys here?" I questioned brushing off the worry building inside of me as the thought of her getting hurt.
"To adopt obviously, but we were having trouble with picking children while Jimin here was watching Shaylea sing her heart out," Namjoon explained as excitement bubbled inside of me but there was a voice in the back of my head telling me to wait for Shaylea's reaction.
"Okay, well we need to wait for Shaylea to come back from wherever she is so you can tell all of us whether if you're adopting us or not," I replied just as we heard a crash come from somewhere else in the orphanage.
Shaylea's POV:
"Kyungsoo what are you doing here?" I asked staring at him standing in the door way of the living room, I watched as he stepped closer to me making me take a step back.
"Just come to see you or is that illegal now," he chuckled as I scoffed at the statement.
"Well, I don't want to see you, so you came here for no reason," I froze when he grabbed my wrist as I turned to walk back to where the others are.
I attempted to pull my wrist out of his grip but it was too tight, so I barged my shoulder into his gut and threw him across the little vanity in the hall way leading from the entrance. Footsteps stopped behind me as I assessed the situation and watched as he got up off the ground, letting off infuriated pheromones as he brushed himself off.
"You are going to regret that," he growled, he charged at me and swung but I grabbed his arm and threw him into the wall.
"Goddammit, Kyungsoo really you decide to do this while drunk," I heard his boyfriend Jongin comment as he picked him up off the ground.
'So he was drunk,' I thought to myself as Jongin bowed in apology and left with him.
"Are you okay?" Jimin questioned as I turned to them, I ignored him and walked away upstairs to my room.
*A few minutes later*
"Why are you up here?" I heard Jeongguks voice at the door, I ignored him as he stood at the door waiting for me to answer. I heard his footsteps behind me, he grabbed my shoulders and turned me around to face him, I looked away at the wall not wanting to be near him as his scent was driving me crazy.
"Look at me, and stop ignoring me," he demanded, I pushed him away as I continued to fold some of my clothing, he got close to me again but this time I growled at him trying to get rid of him.
"I just wanted to tell you that we are adopting all three of you," he explained, I grabbed a piece of paper and wrote down my response this is what it was:
'Take the other two, leave me here they'll be happier without me there,'
"No you are coming with us, whether you like it or not, you have no choice in the matter so I'd suggest packing the stuff you have and meeting me downstairs in 15 minutes," with that he left and went back downstairs.
I frowned and packed my stuff but didn't go down stairs, I stayed there writing an apology letter before picking up my backpack with the only stuff I own inside of it and jumping out the window.
Jeongguk's POV:
*15 minutes later*
'What the hell is taking her so long' I thought to myself as I went back upstairs to check on her, everyone decided to follow me up there because they are also worried about her. Opening the door to an empty room and the cliche apology letter on the bed was not what we were expecting and not what we wanted, Latesha picked up the letter and read it out loud so everyone else could hear it and the content's of the letter were gut wrenching, here is what it said;
Dear Jackson and Latesha,
I know you were expecting to live happily ever after with me in the picture, I hate to be the barer of bad news but I felt like it would be better if I was not included in the adoption process and you guys can live a happier life without me. I am not going to tell you where I am going because that would defeat the purpose of running away, I also could not handle the thought of living in a house where there are predominantly alphas existing. I apologise for just flunking on you guys like this but I need to find myself, I won't be surprised it you don't forgive me for this, don't bother asking anyone where I am because I didn't tell anyone that I was leaving. If anything goes south with you guys the boys will protect you since I won't be there to do it, if I don't make it without running into trouble just know that I love you guys and that I hope you become happier now that you finally have a family. Tell all our friends that I've left for vacation so they can stay happy and not worry about a disappointment like me, I will try and be safe but I can't promise anything in this letter will stay true apart from the fact that this may be the last goodbye and after this you'll never see me again. But don't be discouraged if you ever start missing me just know I'm always with you in your heart, all I hope for in life is for you guys to be happy and for me to find some sort of happiness even if it's not with you guys apart of my life.
Love your sister
Shaylea Wang
