All Chapters of RUN AWAY WITH ME: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Rain lashed the pavement like handfuls of gravel, stinging her cheeks as she ran. Evelyn Hart didn't dare look back. Not at the church disappearing behind her, not at the small crowd of horrified wedding guests calling her name, and definitely not at the groom standing frozen at the altar - face red, jaw clenched, eyes full of a fury she knew all too well.Her heels slapped the sidewalk, slipping on the wet stone. The white satin dress—his choice, not hers—was heavy with rain, dragging behind her like a drowned ghost. Her lungs burned. Her mind screamed. But she didn’t stop. Couldn’t stop.Because today was supposed to be her wedding day.And she had just run.She didn't know where she was going, only that the city had thinned behind her, replaced by the dirt path she'd wandered once as a child. It led straight into Briarwood Forest. Locals whispered about strange things there, animals that didn't act like animals, shapes in the dark. But right now, superstition was safer than the lif

The rogue wolf hit the cabin floor in a spray of splintered wood, landing in a crouch low enough to scrape its belly across the boards. Its lips peeled back and showed teeth like carved obsidian.Evelyn flattened herself against the far wall, her heart ricocheting against her ribs.Before her, the wolf in his silver-black coat—her wolf, for reasons she didn’t know and couldn’t fathom—stood between her and this intruder, muscles coiled, fur standing on end like storm-charged lightning.The two wolves circled each other, slow and deliberate, each waiting for the other to make the first mistake. Each knowing that the least mistake will result in death.The rogue lunged.The Alpha met it mid-air.They hit hard enough that the windowpanes shook; snarls racketed around the cabin like thunder. Teeth snapped, and claws scraped at the floor. The rogue slammed the Alpha against the table, crashing it against the wall.Evelyn ducked as wood exploded beside her.“Stop!” she cried—pointless, she k

The sound was impossible—hundreds of wolves howling in perfect, chilling unison.The cabin vibrated. Evelyn’s bones vibrated.Her protector—the Alpha—staggered, bracing one hand on the floor, the other instinctively reaching back to steady her. He wished she had run when she had the chance, but now it was too late.“They’re here,” he rasped.The woman with the silver eyes smiled, stepping over the shattered pieces of the suppressor charm. “Good. We’ve wasted enough time.”The man beside her cracked his knuckles. “You ready for round two, Alpha?”But the Alpha wasn’t looking at them.He was staring at the open doorway, pulse roaring beneath his skin. He knew what was coming. He feared what was coming.Evelyn followed his gaze—And froze.Leaves tore loose from trees. Branches snapped. Shadows zipped between trunks. A wall of eyes—dozens, then hundreds—glowed at the forest’s edge.“Who are they?” Evelyn whispered.The woman answered without looking away. “My pack.”The Alpha snarled. “T

For a heartbeat, the world held its breath.The Alpha knelt in the ruined doorway, half-man, half-wolf—shoulders heaving, claws extended, golden eyes locked on her like she was the only thing standing between him and oblivion.Evelyn felt that stare in her bones.It hit her like gravity, like recognition, like something ancient snapping into place inside her chest.The silver-eyed woman whispered, horrified,“He tracked her through the entire cavern system. Even unconscious, the bond pulled him straight to her.”The man beside her muttered a curse. “This is bad.” “This is very bad.”But Evelyn barely heard them.She stepped forward—just one step.The Alpha’s entire body jolted, as if matching her movement instinctively. A ragged sound tore from his throat—a growl, a plea, a warning.“Stop!” the silver-eyed woman shouted. “If you get any closer—”But Evelyn didn’t stop.She couldn’t. Something inside her refused to. She needed to reach out to him.The Alpha rose from his knees, swaying

KaelPain flashed white behind my eyes. For a second, I tasted blood.But Varos moved faster than he ever had before—his aura swelling like a tidal wave, pressing into the corridor, crushing oxygen out of the air.No.No.He was trying to force me to submit.My wolf growled inside me.Never.“Kael—!” Evelyn’s voice echoed somewhere behind us. Fear spiked in her scent.I lunged at Varos once more, claws slicing across his face. A long arc of dark blood drew itself across his skin, but he didn't flinch. He only tilted his head, eyes gleaming brighter.“You're bleeding,” I growled."I bleed for the gods," he answered, "not for you."Then his hand whipped out like lightning and closed on my throat.I hit the wall with enough force to dent it.His grip tightened.My vision blurred.“Kael!” Evelyn screamed running forward.Varos's voice was dripping with venom. "Come closer, girl. Let the tether respond."And she moved-either by choice or by force of magic, I didn't know-but she took a sing
