Aprils pov.
"Snow" I call my wolf.
"Yes April." She says and she sounds better than the last time we talked.
" are you okay?" I ask.
"I'm better now " she says.
I'm glad she's better. Snow is the only one I have left and if it weren't for her I don't know what I would have done.
" I'm glad." .. " Snow, do you think we should trust the guard?" I ask.
She is silent for way too long and I begin getting worried.
" Snow?" I call out.
" yes April. You should trust him" she says and a sight escapes her.
" Snow, are you sure you're okay?" I ask getting worried.
" don't worry about me! Its nothing I can't handle. " she says and I trust her on that . So, I stop asking questions.
" okay! I can give it a shot but trust is a strong word. My trust is not easily given. Hence, you need to prove yourself." I say.
" no problem, now eat! You are gonna need your strength! " he says excitedly.
I begin eating and I wolf it all down within seconds.
" for what exactly?" I say blankly.
" to escape! " he says. " and damn girl talk about hunger!"
All of a sudden I feel a sharp pain in my chest and it takes a minute to realise that it's from snow.
" April, are we going to leave mate behind?" She asks sadly.
" yes snow! He rejected us remember? He also got our parents killed! " I say matter of factly.
" it's okay April, I understand. I'll help you and stick by you no matter what!" She says.
" hello? We are stuck in one body, so you can't really leave me!" I say while trying to cheer her up.
" I love you April! " she says. " I'm never going to go silent again!"
"I love you too snow!" I say. " do you promise?" I ask
" I promise! " she replies.
I find myself smiling for the first time since the rejection.
" April?" The guard call.
" oops sorry, I kinda zoned out! " I say.
I did not want him to know
I was talking with snow. Just because I accepted his help does not mean I trust him." I understand! So back to the plan!" The guard says.
Calling him guard is getting kinda tiring and annoying.
" firstly, before you tell me the plan, tell me your name first!" I say.
" I'm sorry Luna for not introducing myself in the beginning. I'm Dylan Lane at your service!" He says and to top it off he does a bow!
How dramatic! Its been a while since in laughed and yet a giggle escapes me and did he just call me Luna?
" you are too dramatic! Why did you call me Luna? I'm not a Luna!" I say.
" I heard the alpha and his son talking about you! They said something about you and our packs future alpha being mates!"he says.
So, they were talking about me huh? The weak mate! How hilarious! Note the sarcasm.
" I'm not a Luna! Also, never associate me with this pack! Its your pack not our!" I say.
" I'll stand by you no matter what and so will the rest of the pack!" He says.
What does he mean by the rest of the pack will stand by me?
"What do you mean?" I ask curiosly.
" Anyway, let's talk about the plan! " he says while avoiding my question.
Before I can protest, he begins to tell me about the plan. The more he talks the more amazing the plan sounds and I forget all about the questions.
Tonight is the first night since the rejection that I'm not crying myself to sleep after I found out that Jake is my mate!
No, tonight I sleep with a sinister smile just thinking about the plan.......

It's been almost a week now since Dylan told me about the plan and I have a feeling that it's not gonna work out.I don't mean to be negative or anything but have you ever had a bad feeling about something, then it actually happens?I put that thought away and started chanting a few "positive energy " "it will work out well" "nothing will go wrong"" April? " I hear snow calling me. " I have a bad feeling about today! " she continues and my worry comes back. " why? " I ask." I don't know I just do but it's probably nothing. " she says and cuts me off. She leaves my mind and blocks me.Before I can make out what that was all about, I hear footsteps and I smell the familiar scent of Dylan."Dylan! Hey! " I say excitedly." did
I burst out laughing and every one looks at me in shock." was that supposed to work? " I ask in between laughs." ofcourse! You are now an omega! " he says proudly and looks pleased with himself.Another burst of laughter escapes me and I have to hold my stomach and start breathing in and out so as to control myself.After a few seconds I finally calm down and say :" if I was an omega would I still have my wolf? " snow asks. By the look everyone has I can tell that they know it's no longer me but my wolf in control even though I'm still in human form.Jake is silent for a while and I nod giving Dylan a sign for what is to happen next.I push Jake on the ground and before he can shift to his wolf form I jump on him and sit on him.Electric currents shoot through my body the minute we make contact but I'm too thirsty for blood to give a da
Aprils povWe cross the pack border and I feel all my connections with the pack dissolving. I look at Dylan and I know that he feels it too if the look of pain in his eyes is anything to go by.I look back one last time and some part of me feels sad because I've left the only home I have ever known and yet I feel excited because now I'm stepping into the unknown."Hey Dylan? What happened to the warriors you were with? " I ask him through the mind link." they were killed!"he says sadly." I'm sorry for your lose! " I pause " what about the other pack members?" I continue asking." they went into hiding once the attack began!" He says.After that we fall into comfortable silence.A while later: Its almost dawn and we've been running the whole night.
Aprils povWe were near a town and we shifted back to human form.Dylan Goddess bless his soul had packed our clothes and some money as well. He had packed all that in his back pack and carried it with his teeth while in wolf form.We changed and started walking into town.It wasn't very busy and we make our way to a motel." we should share a room so that it would be cheaper. " Dylan says out of nowhere." yeah! " I agree.We get a room and boy does it feel good to see an actual bed!The bed is well spread and the room to say the least is just plain boring and gloomy.It has grey walls, grey curtains,black tiles and a grey duvet. The bed is in the middle of the room and the room is an okay size.I mean what the hell is it with the depressing colours?
Aprils pov I wake up and instantly regret it.I have a pounding headache and it feels as though my skull will crack any minute now. A pair of hands are wrapped around my waist and a small smile makes it's way across my face.He didn't leave." Dylan? We have to talk!" I whisper." That we do!" He replies instantly.Really? He was awake this entire time?"What happened last night?" He continues." I felt guilty and sad at what happened! " I reply. I don't have the energy in me to lie." why?" He asks worried." IT'S MY FAULT THAT THOSE PEOPLE DIED! IF I HADN'T GOTTEN REJECTED, MY PARENTS WOULD STILL BE ALIVE. IF ONLY I HAD BEEN GOOD ENOUGH, I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN REJECTED! IF IT WASN'T FOR ME YOUR FRIENDS WOULDN'T BE DEAD AND YOU WOULDN'T HAVE LEFT THE ONLY HOME YOU KNEW. ALSO, I KI
Aprils pov So far. The worst part? I have to leave this amazing creature behind who has grown to mean so much to me. What should I do? I know that there is strength in number but I don't want to drag him into the unknown. " April, for goddess sake! Stop thinking so hard! you are hurting my brain!" Dyl says. Wait, he can hear me thinking? " H-" I begin but I'm quickly cut off. " Our wolves have formed a bond, not the one you're thinking. The sibling bond. My wolf can't shut up about his adorable little sister which so happens to be your wolf!" He says. " other than that, are you okay?" " wow that is such a twist!... yes I am better but I'll never be okay... thanks for last night." I say. " what are big brothers for?" He asks and hugs me. " I'm glad you're bet
Aprils pov " April, its time" Dylan says." Gosh Dyl, I hate that sentence! Nothing good ever comes when you say that" I say."I'm sorry but we have to get ready and um..um.. you have to leave!" he says the last part with sadness and I glimpse a tear rolling down his cheek."Big brother? Please don't cry, it pains me to leave you behind ! But It hurts me more to see you cry!" I say and hug him." I know baby sis but promise me you will be careful" he says."I promise! Promise me that we will meet again on better circumstances!" I plead." I promise! Promise me that when the time comes when we meet again you will not leave me!" He pleads and holds me tighter." I promise!" I say and pull back.I go to the bathroom to freshen up.I shower within 5 minutes and put on my clothe
Aprils povIt's been seven months since that fateful day.Snow has been heartbroken and yet she has been there for me... she kept her promise.I haven't seen or heard from Dyl since that day too nor have I ever stepped foot in my old pack.The search for my parents continue and so far I have nothing.I'm a female rogue and well life as a rogue has its ups and downs. The only up I've seen is the freedom. The downs are being alone, no one to trust and being constantly on the run.I mean, I have Snow but ........... agghh just forget about it.Currently, I'm running through the forest in wolf form. Running against the wind feeling the slap of wind on my face and I can't help but think that there's no place I'd rather be.I let Snow have fun running around chasing butterflies while I sit back
