The Day He Forgot He Hated Me by Evangeline Marrow

CHAPTER 20

I stood there trying to keep my composure but it was getting increasingly hard. Everyone was staring at me, waiting for me to defend myself but I really didn’t know what to say. What did they want me to say? Anything I come up with is going to sound like a lie right now.

Suddenly Asher walked over to me and he knelt down in front of me and forced me to look at him.

“I’m going to put you under my Alpha command. It is going to hurt and I’m really sorry. But I know that this isn’t something you want to talk about. But you have to.” Asher said.

“What do you know?” I asked.

“I don’t know anything. But if it’s what I think it is, you need to say it. So, I will put you under Alpha command so you don’t have a choice but to tell me. You have to tell us the truth.” He said.

I looked at him, pleading with my eyes. I didn’t want to say it. I couldn’t say it. But he grabbed my

hand and assured me that it was going to be alright.

So o he moved back slightly and I felt his Alpha aura start to pour out of him. The only people that weren’t affected by it were his family because they all came from Alpha blood. But my family and I were affected. I could feel the power start to take over. It was intense and painful. I tried not to fight it as much as possible but I also knew that he was doing this so I would talk about something

that I didn’t want to talk about.

Asher took me by the hand again and he wiped the sweat away from my forehead.

“Trinity. Did you have four abortions before you turned 18?” He asked.

“Yes.” I choked out. I grabbed the armrest of the chair with my other hand, trying to control the

pain.

Gage and Arlo had to look away, knowing that this was hurting me and they didn’t want to see it.

“Did you mean to get pregnant?” He asked.

“No.” I said.

“Who got you pregnant?” He asked.

I felt the tears starting to fall down my face. The pain was intense and under Alpha command, you can’t lie. It was physically impossible.

“Please?” I pleaded.

“I’m really sorry. But you have to answer me. Was it the same person that got you pregnant all four

times?” He asked.

“Yes,” I said.

“Who was it?” He asked. I tried to fight it a little harder, but that just made it even more painful. I

couldn’t fight it. Not any longer.

“Spencer.” I choked out.

I saw Asher’s eyes go black before he regained his composure and his normal green eyes were peering back at me.

“Your brother got you pregnant. Did you want to have s*x with him?” Asher asked through gritted teeth.

“No.” I whimpered.

I heard the Alpha and Luna gasp but Gage and Arlo were in my line of sight. They both looked at Spencer like they were ready to kill him.

I knew that if they had a chance and their father wasn’t here, they probably would kill him.

Asher finally released me from the command and I started taking a deep breath while the tears started flowing even harder.

Gage stepped forward to console me while Asher took a step back from my chair and he turned to look at my family.

Gage leaned forward and pulled me into his arms. Arlo was right by my side in an instant as well.

“You three are under arrest.” Alpha Dennis said to my family.

“Us three? We didn’t know about this. We didn’t know what Spencer was doing.” Mom snapped.

“Is that true?” Asher asked.

“They knew. They usually told him to have fun before they left me alone with him.” I said.

There was a chorus of growls echoing the room as the Alpha, Luna, Gage and Arlo were all furious and were out for blood.

All of this had been happening under their noses and they didn’t even know.

I never wanted anyone to know. But my parents had to try and screw me over with those clinic

forms.

I guess they just assumed that the Alpha would believe them instead of me. They weren’t counting on Asher knowing that there was something wrong with the whole situation.

They didn’t count on Asher being my mate. They still don’t know. So, warriors stormed into the room and arrested my family and dragged them down to the dungeon.

The whole three of them were screaming and arguing the entire time as they were being dragged away. Making sure that I knew they were going to make me pay for what I’ve done.

Gage didn’t wait for his parents to say anything else.

He stood me up from the chair and he took me out of the office.

We went back upstairs to my room and I sat on the bed resting against the backrest of the bed

with my knees up at my chest.

“I’m sorry Trinity. Asher knew that you were never going to tell us but we also wanted to know the

truth as well.” Gage said.

“Why couldn’t you all just leave it alone?” I asked.

“Because we didn’t know how serious the abuse was. We didn’t know about Spencer and we are

so sorry for everything that happened to you. We should have protected you better. We never imagined that they were doing that. But if Asher didn’t do that then you would be in the dungeon. right now and your family would be back in this house acting as if nothing happened.” Arlo explained.

Someone else then knocked on the door so I looked up and Asher was standing there.

“Can you two give us a minute?” Asher asked.

“Sure. We’ll be in our rooms if you need us.” Gage said. So I nodded my head.

As soon as they walked out of my room Asher closed the door and he walked over to my bed and

sat down, keeping a distance between us.

“Are you alright? I know the Alpha command can be intense.” He said.

“Why did you do that? I don’t care if I was the one in the dungeon. I don’t care about any of it. If it

means I’m away from them, then I don’t care where I am.” I said.

“Because I felt it.” He said.

“What are you talking about?” I asked.

“I already knew that we were mates when this happened. When Spencer did that to you. Every time he attacked you. I thought you were hooking up with my brothers. Or you were hooking up with other guys at school. I didn’t know that he was raping you.” Asher said.

“You felt it?” I asked.

“When a mate cheats, it’s extremely painful for the other mate. That’s why werewolves don’t cheat. There’s no way they can get away with it. Even if they’re not marked. And I felt it. I felt everything.”

He said.

“So, you know the nights that he attacked me?” I asked.

“Yeah. I know. I’m sorry. I just assumed that you were hooking up with guys. You didn’t know that I was your mate. And I did think a few bad things about you after that.” He said.

“I don’t blame you,” I said as I started crying even more. So he moved closer to me and pulled me

into his arms.

“I am so sorry. I should have been there for you. I should have tried to save you from them sooner. I knew something wasn’t right when I left but I still left.” He said.

“Asher. Why do you want to be with me?” I asked.

“Because you’re my mate. I’ve loved you for years.” He said.

“I am damaged. I’m f****d up. Why would anyone want to be with me?” I asked.

“Don’t you dare say that again. There is absolutely nothing wrong with you. And whatever

happened to you isn’t your fault. It happened to you. You didn’t do it. And I will never blame you for

that.” He said.

“But aren’t you dating that girl from that party?” I asked.

“f**k no. She just showed up here and wouldn’t go away. Not until I forced her to. She was so

******g annoying.” He said. And I started laughing through the tears.

“That’s good to know.” I said.

“Trinity. I know that I’ve been a bit hot and cold since I’ve been back. But so have you. I need to

know what you want.” He said.

“What do I want?” I asked.

“Yeah. You do get to have a choice in how your life goes.” He said.

“You want to know how I see my future?” I asked.

“Absolutely.” He said.

“Alright. My perfect future is to graduate college, get a great job, have my mate and raise my kids.” I said.

“You want me to be that mate?” He asked.

“I always have. But I believed that I killed my brother. And that you deserved better.” I said.

“You didn’t kill Dane. And there is no one better than you.” He said.

“I don’t know if I want the whole pack to know that we’re mates yet.” I said.

“We don’t have to tell anyone. Not yet. And we’ll go as slow as you want. Now knowing what you’ve been through, believe me, I won’t be pushing you to do anything.” He said.

“I know you won’t,” I said.

“Trinity…” Asher started to say. So I looked up at him and he looked really bothered by something.

“What is it?” I asked.

“It’s going to be hard living here. You’re definitely not leaving, but I have a feeling that Gage might. be in love with you.” Asher said. And I nodded my head.

“I’ve been getting the same feeling,” I said.

“Yeah. It might be best if we don’t tell anyone about us. Not yet anyway. Besides, you’re not strong enough yet to go through all that shit.” He said.

“I know.” I said.

“It’s alright. We won’t tell anyone. But don’t think you’re getting off the hook with me that easily.” He

said.

“I didn’t expect to.” I said and he smiled at me.

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.
