PROLOGUE

I opened the front door to my house and walked inside. What I thought I was going to see my mate sitting in his lazy boy reading another book form his collection but the house was dark. I flipped the lights on and went into his study to find him not there either. I searched all over the house for my missing love but couldn't find anything that led to his disappearance. She was usually there to greet me when I came back from the hospital to know how our babies were doing.

I sighed and headed to the kitchen to grab a snack. Going to the freezer I pulled the bottom freezer out and grabbed a tub of chocolate ice cream. Going to the counter I set the tub down and pulled a drawer open for a spoon. I got and went to grab my ice cream again but something caught my eye. It was a letter.

I sprang forward and looked at the writing. It said 'to Chloe'. I don't know how I Clive missed it but I didn't hesitate to rip the top open and pull out the small piece of lined paper inside. It read:

Chloe,

I'm sorry for my sudden disappearance, but I have left because of my decision. My decision is to leave you. I know you are going to bear our child, but the truth is I don't wish that upon you. I didn't want for you to be pregnant but I have been wanting out for a long time. I am very sorry, I've taken my things and left. I hope you have a good life with your child.

I'm so sorry,
Derek.

I stared at the letter in disbelief. This was a prank, it had to be. I laughed and looked around for someone to come around the corner and laugh about my expression. Then Derek would come around and try not to smirk. I called out to them and told them it wasn't funny. When no one came out I began to get worried.

"Derek? Tori? Guys this isn't funny come on! You can come out of hiding now!"

There was no answer which made me worry that the letter was serious even more. That couldn't be true, could it? Derek loved me. He told me I was his mate. My breaths became short and shallow. I ran from the kitchen ice cream forgotten and began calling for Derek frantically.

"Derek! Derek where are you?! You can't leave Derek! Derek!"

Tears ran down my face as I searched the rooms again and again. He wasn't here! He wasn't anywhere! I dropped to my knees in the hallway and held my chest as I sobbed for his return. Why would he leave?

After what felt like hours I got up and walked further down the hallway to my bedroom. Inside I went to a box in the corner of Derek's and I's closet, or what used to be ours. It was empty of his clothes and held only mine. I grabbed the box and pulled the top off. Inside was a jacket. His old one. I had kept it for when he was gone and plus it was my favorite. I pulled the oversized dark blue jacket on and went to the bed. Climbing in I tucked my legs underneath the blanket and buried my face in his pillow. I inhaled his woodsy smell and fell into the comforting darkness.

hope you like it! Please review! I allow criticism but please don't be really harsh that'll make me cry. R&R please anD thank you!
