The Day He Forgot He Hated Me by Evangeline Marrow 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 

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

CHAPTER

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 methey 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.

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

+25 Points 

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 leastI 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

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 

house

I poured lighter fluid over the top of everything and lit a match before throwing it on top, causing 

the whole lot to go up in flames

I had a fire extinguisher next to me as I sat on the chair near the backdoor, but the fire got pretty big pretty fast

I was keeping an eye on it and it wasn’t going near the fence or endangering the neighbors 

properties or anything

The neighbors did come out of their houses to see what was going on and they saw me sitting next to the back of the house watching the fire

Warriors soon showed up and I threatened them not to touch it. Everything in that fire was trash. But they mind linked the Alpha and he came to the house with Asher and it wasn’t long before Gage showed up either

They saw the fire in the backyard and I was just sitting in the chair watching it

They looked at me strangely before I stood up and looked at the Alpha

I’m going to start applying for jobs in neighboring towns and at my college. No one in this pack is going to give me a chance and once this fire dies down, the rest of the furniture in the house is going to be set on fire. It’s all trash and I don’t want it. But I am going to need money to refurnish 

the house.I announced to the Alpha

You’re moving back here?Alpha Dennis asked. So I looked at Gage and then at Asher

It’s the only logical choice right now.” I said before going inside the house

SUMMARY (~1000 Words in English)

Trinity was born into a werewolf pack where things seem perfect on the outside—strong leadership, pack unity, and loyalty. But Trinity knows better than anyone that the image doesn’t match reality. In this pack, if your family is respected and the Alpha favors you, life is comfortable. But some people learn how to manipulate, to hide their cruelty behind obedience, and Trinity’s own family happens to be experts at that.

After graduating high school, Trinity receives a full scholarship to a nearby college that accepts both humans and werewolves. For most wolves, that is a dream opportunity. But her parents refuse to let her leave the pack territory. They tell her she must remain at home, and Trinity has learned never to question their decisions. Disobedience is met with consequences—painful consequences.

She turned eighteen a few months ago, which technically makes her a legal adult allowed to live her life how she chooses. But Trinity knows her parents would involve the Alpha to block her from leaving, and she has no choice but to stay. The only thing she has independence in is her part-time job as a tutor at the local high school. She genuinely enjoys helping struggling kids—especially werewolf children who often have trouble focusing. The job pays, it gives her purpose, and it’s the one part of her life she feels proud of.

Trinity’s two closest friends are Gage and Arlo, twin brothers who happen to be the younger sons of the Alpha and Luna. She grew up with them, laughed with them, survived with them. They are her safe place—her reminder that not everyone in this pack is cruel. To everyone else, their friendship seems unusual: pack princes spending all their time with a girl outside the Alpha’s family line. People assume the relationship must be romantic. But the bond between Trinity, Gage, and Arlo is deeper than romance—they are family by choice.

One afternoon, after Trinity finishes tutoring, she meets the twins and they go out together like they always do—joking, teasing, and laughing at a local diner. The twins mention that they don’t want to be home tomorrow because someone important is returning. That person is Asher, their older brother—the future Alpha.

The moment Trinity hears his name, panic strikes her. Her heart races, her breathing tightens, but she hides it expertly. Asher’s return is something she has been dreading. There is a painful history between them—one that changed both their lives forever. Trinity knows Asher wouldn’t want to see her either, but she still fears what will happen when their paths cross again. His return means her carefully built emotional walls may crumble.

After spending the afternoon with the twins, Trinity returns home. But home isn’t safety. Home is punishment.

Her family is waiting.

Her father, mother, and older brother Spencer stand like judges preparing for a sentence Trinity has already memorized. She tries to turn away, but she knows resistance only makes things worse. They force her into the basement—the same basement where they punish her for something that happened years ago. Something they believe is entirely Trinity’s fault. Something she still insists was an accident.

They chain her arms overhead with silver restraints, burning her skin. Her mother selects a leather whip soaked in wolfsbane—ensuring that wounds heal slowly and painfully. The whip cracks across Trinity’s skin again and again. Blood forms. Pain radiates. But Trinity doesn’t scream. She refuses to give them the satisfaction.

When her mother grows tired, her brother Spencer steps forward wearing brass knuckles. He strikes her stomach repeatedly, anger controlling his fists. When he accidentally hits her face, their father lightly scolds him—not because of the pain inflicted, but because bruises on her face would raise suspicion at school.

Their cruelty is routine. Their words cut as sharply as the whip—accusing her of destroying their family, of being a burden, of being unwanted. Trinity has heard it all before. She has learned to respond not with tears, but with silence and defiance.

When they finally release her, Trinity cleans and dresses herself alone. Her body aches, her ribs feel possibly broken, burns mark her wrists, and bruises stain her skin. But she moves quietly through the world the next day—smiling when needed, talking to people, blending in. She has done it hundreds of times.

But the one thing she cannot ignore is the voice that wakes her through a mind link the next morning.

Asher.

His voice is steady, familiar, and filled with emotion she doesn’t want to face. Trinity shuts him out. Even her wolf, Lily, urges her to speak to him, arguing that Trinity hurt him too. But Trinity insists she did it for his sake. She had reasons—reasons no one knows.

After her long day at college, Trinity stops at a diner before returning home. There, two girls from high school—Ingrid and Rose—approach her. They always believed she was the reason the twins never paid attention to them. Jealousy taints their words. Trinity stays calm but firm. There’s nothing romantic between her and the twins—but if they used her name as an excuse to avoid shallow relationships, that’s not Trinity’s fault.

Trinity leaves the conversation with the same quiet strength she practices every day.

She survives.

Even when it hurts.

Even when she’s alone.

But Asher is back now.

And the past she tried to bury is coming with him.
