“Please don’t make me leave,” I begged Mom one last time as she hugged me tightly.

“Honey… you deserve to know your father,” she replied gently.

I don’t understand it. Why is she pushing this so hard? I never even met the man. I’ve never been away from my mom like this.

“Hug your sister,” Mom said as she let me go. “It might be a while before you see her again.”

God, why did that sound so final? Am I never going to see Mom again? Or any of them? How long? Won’t I be able to come back sometimes? I mean, isn’t that how most custody splits work? They can’t take me away forever, right?

This is so hard… I’m so confused.

I turned to Everly who was smiling, but her eyes were smirking. Before I could hug her, she hugged me. Tightly. Too tightly.

“You know they want you to love it there, right?” She whispered in my ear. “So that you never come back. Mommy doesn’t want you anymore. She has a better daughter now, and you… you’re just a burden she no longer has any obligation to. Oh, and happy birthday by the way!”

My bottom lip trembled as tears filled my eyes. Everly finally let me go, smiling as she bounded off toward Kylian. Who has already forgotten about me. At least, according to

Everly.

“Come on, honey, we have to meet your dad in town,” Mom told me as she gently pulled me to

her car.

I looked back as Mom dragged me across the parking lot. Tae had a few tears, but the other three didn’t look like anything really. No emotion at all as they watched me be dragged away from everything I’ve ever known. I’m sure Evander’s probably happy to see me go. Maybe they all are. Maybe they’re all excited to finally be rid of me.

No. I shouldn’t think that way. Kylian promised that we’d stay in touch. I promised that I’d

come home the day I turn 18. They wouldn’t make me promise that if they didn’t really want me around.

Right?

Silently crying, I got in the car with Mom and Tusk. I turned around to look out the back window as we slowly drove out of the compound. Tae was still watching me go, rubbing his chest. Evander and Chayton were already gone. Kylian watched for a moment before letting Everly pull him off somewhere. The last thing I saw before the gates closed was Kylian’s smile. The one he rarely showed. The one I used to think was just for me.

Gosh, I was really stupid. Even if I stayed, it wouldn’t matter. My stupid crush that seems to bounce between the five of them is just plain silly. I mean, is it really a crush if it so easily bounces between five different guys? Especially when one of them doesn’t even talk to me. I mean, where did I think any of that would go?

There used to be a time when I saw them all as my heroes, my saviors. When I felt the most alone in the world, one or more of them was right there to brighten the darkness. They were my best friends, my heart and soul. I loved them so deeply and that love turned into something more the older we got. I thought I was the only one. I thought that my feelings were silly, or maybe there was something wrong with me, but then…

But then Tae kissed me, and he didn’t stop. He would sneak around just to kiss me, and it seemed like he enjoyed it a lot. Especially the night of his 16th birthday. I feel like that night set things off. Chayton cornered me next, blowing my mind. Then Evander… blew my mind before ripping my heart out and stomping on it right in front of me.

One thing they all had in common was that they pretended nothing happened the next day. I don’t know what I expected. They’re bikers and young and have girls all over them constantly, and they don’t even like me like that. They can barely stand to be around me at all over the last year and a half.

So, why would they even do that?

I know why. I’m not that naive. Not as much as everyone seems to think. I have grown up around the club and have lived here for the last two years. I know what it all was, what I was.

I was just a convenience. Someone who was there at the moment. Someone they would never be with in public. Someone good enough to keep as a secret, but not worthy enough to cherish out loud for the world to see. Even the club girls get treated better. The fact that I’m not even treated with the same respect as a club girl has my mind whirling. What am I to them?

Well, I guess, now I’m nothing. To anyone. Because they’re all letting me go. Mom and Tusk

are driving me to hand me over to a man I don’t know. No one fought for me. No one even seemed upset, other than Tae. No one cried, or begged for me to stay, or even asked why this was happening. I feel like I was the only one who had a problem with all of this and that hurts so much.

“Don’t worry, my little love,” Mom said as we drove down the road. “We’ll talk every day. I’ll make sure your phone is always working. This isn’t forever, honey.”

“It feels like forever,” I grumbled, crossing my arms and frowning out the window as tears rolled down my eyes. The sun was shining brightly in the sky. A contrast to the way I feel inside.

“Oh, Blythe, come on, don’t be like that,” Mom said, her voice taking on that irritated tone she seems to always use with me these days. “This is hard enough without your attitude.”

“M–my attitude?” I asked incredulously. “My entire life is being flipped upside down and-”

“Do not raise your voice at me,” she cut me off, voice stern, shutting me right up. “I know this is a big change for you, but try to see this as a positive thing. Everly told me what you said to her earlier too. You better be lucky that you’re not in trouble for that.”

“Wh–what I said to her?” I asked, stunned and confused.

“Yes, about how she will never take your place, and I’m your mom first and blah, blah, blah,” she said before sighing heavily. “I just don’t understand you, Blythe. You’ve never had a problem with sharing before. You’re getting a little too old for these games.”

“But I didn’t-”

“Look, I don’t want to fight anymore,” Mom cut me off yet again. “These are our last minutes together for a while. Let’s spend them smiling instead of arguing.”

So, I closed my mouth. Mom spent the rest of the 10–minute ride reminiscing in our past. She chuckled, smiled, and seemed just… thrilled. Thrilled to look back on the good times. Thrilled to finally be done with me. Thrilled. Not sad. Not heartbroken. Happy.

Gosh, this hurts so much.

Tusk pulled into the gas station parking lot and parked in the back where there were no other cars. Mom sniffled before excusing herself. I assumed she was going to go call my father to ask where he was. I’m sure she can’t wait to get rid of me.

“You’re mom’s really gonna miss you, kid,” Tusk told me.

I looked up at him, but he was staring out the windshield.

“C–can I ask you something without you getting mad at me?” I asked timidly.

Tusk met my eyes in the rearview mirror.
