Running With His Heir Chapter 41: Runaway Girl
— Leia Steele —I wasn’t sure how long I had been walking, how many days or weeks had passed since I told myself that no matter what happened, I wouldn’t stop and I would keep going and going.But what I did know was that I was almost back to being skin and bones. It helped that I was able to scavenge food here and there from random campsites that I encountered and animals that wandered around, but still, they were not enough to sustain me as much as I needed.I knew though, that even if every part of my body hurt, that still wouldn’t hinder me from my goal which was to get as far away as possible.I looked up to take in my surroundings. The sun was lighting up the forest I was in beautifully, tinting the vast greenery a gorgeous shade of yellow and orange. It was like a painting in real life. Not that I had many to compare to, but this was one of the few things that kept me going.The feeling of the warm sun against my skin, the smell of freshly bloomed flowers, and even the sound of
Running With His Heir Chapter 42: New Identity
— Leia Steele —“Strawberries? Blueberries? Um… a few peach slices?” I turned to Edith who was smiling from ear to ear as she watched me with fascination.“You’re missing just one more ingredient,” she says to me as she raises her fork with a piece of pie stuck to it.She wiggles her fork and the smell of the freshly-baked pastry fills my nose. “A little bit of lemon juice!” I said with much confidence after being able to detect which exact ingredients she had baked int it.“Yes! Exactly that!” Edith says cheerfully, followed by a clap. “Bravo, kid. You truly have a spectacular sense of smell.” Christopher appeared from behind the kitchen door and gave me a glass of what looked like wine.“Christopher,” Edith called him as she tilted her head with a bemused expression. “What? It’s sparkling wine, sweetheart.” He corrected and I couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle.It would be really interesting for them to find out that I may be technically nineteen, but in human years, I am de
Running With His Heir Chapter 43: Snow Cabin
— Leia Steele —“Maxie! Maxie boy, come here!” I called out, snapping my fingers simultaneously to entice him to come out.A few seconds later, the beautiful hazel-eyed husky covered in white and gray fur comes out, running to my direction with what looks like a huge fish in the middle of his fangs.He’s got an obvious proud smile as he dropped it in front of me and I couldn’t help but let out a laugh.“You’ve been bothering the fishies again by the river, huh? Okay, well, better get in your fun before it freezes and you can’t get to them anymore.” I said before patting him on the head and he let out a howl of approval.At that exact second, Christopher comes out of the front door.“Great, you found the troublemaker. Lunch is ready, kid. Wash up and come in. I’ll take care of the catch of the day.” He commented before taking the big fish off the snow and giving me a friendly wink.“Come on, big guy. You heard your papa. Time to wash up!” Maxie smiles at me again and lets out his paw a
Running With His Heir Chapter 44: Hello Stranger
— Leia Steele — I was torn, but I knew I had to make a decision fast. Should I let the Dark Shadow out or will I risk being captured or defeated by whoever it was that stood in front of me?All of a sudden, I can feel it stirring inside of me. It knows that I’m thinking about it, that after weeks of keeping it locked in, it might just have a chance to be free again. No, Leia! Don’t do it! You promised never to let it control you again after what happened! The battle in my head is getting worse, and it’s starting to give me a headache. Damn it! I need to do something before the man does, but all I can do is stand there, feet planted onto the ground.I’m screwed! I’m so screwed! Maxie instantly takes me out of my inner turmoil when he suddenly moves, running towards the figure of the unknown man.“Maxie, no! Come back here!” I shouted for him, scared that he would get hurt.I wondered if his ‘fight or flight’ instincts were taking over. Specifically, the former, but I quickly reali
Running With His Heir Chapter 45: Special Invite
— Leia Steele —My heart pumped like crazy, the beating getting harder and faster as I half walked half sprinted towards the back of the cabin.Maxie was closely following behind me, even though for a second I thought he would rather stay with… him.I felt a shudder travel all throughout my body almost instantly.Goddess, no wonder he and Maxie immediately bonded like how we did too before. It’s because he was just like me. How in the world did I miss that? I guess I was so caught up in meeting another person that I hadn’t stopped to think about the fact that it was possible he wouldn’t just be a person. “Vera!” Edith almost gave me a heart attack when she popped up from the corner, holding a knife up in the air.She must have noticed my widened eyes on the knife because she quickly put it behind her back. “Oh, I’m sorry, I was cutting a slice of the pie. Where have you been? We were starting to get worried. Chris was on the verge of calling a sheriff over here, but I told him that
Running With His Heir Chapter 46: Fate? Mate?
— Leia Steele —I was nothing but nervous, and everything but relaxed as I stood there waiting for Skye to arrive at the spot he told me to meet him the next day.There were so many things running through my head that I was sure any second from now I would get the worst migraine of my life.Would he show up? What if he doesn’t? Did it mean that this was all a lie and he never really meant anything of what he said? Or maybe it was just all my imagination? Or maybe something bad had happened to him and there was no way for me to know how to help since he never really told me anything but his first name?!“Oh my goddess,” I let out a deep exhale, my heart going on overdrive.That was one heck of an overthinking session that I had to find a spot next to a tree and sit down beside it before I fainted.I checked the time on my watch and realized that I was a few minutes earlier. I could have sworn more time had passed, but it seems I really was just in over my head.I turned around and debat
Running With His Heir Chapter 47: Second Chance
— Zane Frost —The clock had barely struck eight in the morning, but the Pack castle was all sorts of chaotic already, though mostly in a good way. We haven’t had a celebration this big, since… well, since the cold-hearted and psychotic wrench of a woman named Ivy, who was River’s ex Luna, had been caught in her web of lies.She didn’t know how to do anything but spend Pack resources for her and only her benefit. I remembered the day she arrived in the Pack, and her first concern was to throw herself a party, claiming that her arrival as Luna needed to be celebrated.Sure, that bit made sense, but after that, she pretty much just celebrated everything, and dear God, don’t even get me started on how River back then ate all of it up like he was a starving fat boy and Ivy was a big chocolate cake.It was maddening the way I had to endure all of that since I was River’s right hand. I had already lost count of how many times I told him to open his eyes and stop being blinded by the mate bo
Running With His Heir Chapter 48: Being Different
— Leia Steele —“Hey, L? L? Hello? Helloooo?” I shook my head before turning to the side where I noticed Skye was looking at me with furrowed brows and a creased forehead. “What just happened? It was like your body was here, but your mind was somewhere in outer space. Is everything alright?” He asked.“Uh, I’m fine. I just— uh, there was—“ I turned to look back to my other side where I saw him, but suddenly, there was no trace of anybody that looked like him in the crowd.I looked again, turning my head left and right, probably looking like a lunatic to whoever was watching me.“Wait, where did he go? What the heck? Was I imagining things? I— I could have sworn I saw—““Saw what? Are you looking for someone or something?” Skye asked while I couldn’t help but keep scanning the area for a certain face.We had some distance from each other, yeah, but I know what I saw and what I felt when I did. If there was a vision higher than 20/20, that’s what it seemed like at that very second.He
