I Just Want To Run Novels & Stories

I ask her why I don't want to be exposed to anything. "It's just some things I need." "You can buy them on the island." "But I want to do it here, stop being so intense." I watch her walk away down the aisles without looking back, so I just follow her silently. When she finishes shopping we go back to the car, arriving home we pack and because maybe her brother would already have his stuff ready I stop to open the car door, when my phone rings it's an email, I want to ignore it, but I think about work and so I open it.

When he walked back to me, he gave me my phone and I grabbed it with no patience. "Hey, it's not what you thi-" I sighed, biting my lips and in a flash, I saw his eyes look down at them, "I get it, Khalil. No one will know about this. T-this was a mistake." I turned away, leaving his room with my brain still jumbled as I walked through the hallway. When I heard his door open one more time, I gave it up and sprinted down the stairs, jumping two at a time. I ran through the living room, and out of the house towards the gate.

I stood there motionless, my eyes glued to the figure I wanted to speak with. His eyes scanned the crowd before they landed on mine and he had a shocked expression but quickly masked it up with his neutral cold look. His eyes lingered on me for a few seconds before he looked away. "Lucas please, I need to talk to you. It's urgent." I pleaded to him through mind link hoping he would take a look at me and answer me. Seeing his neutral expression, "Please Lucas, please." I begged again. "I just want to speak with you, I'll leave afterward, I promise," I said with my head low to avoid the tears building up in my eyes.

i wave After Jer left i finished up my breakfast and decided to go for a short run before its time to wake up the runts. I take my clothes off not wanting to destroy them and placed them in the chair on the porch then shifted into my black and white wolf and begin my run. I head towards the woods in our territory, its been quite a while since i had a run like this. I've been so busy the past week catching up on everything that's been going on while i was gone i hadn't gotten any time for myself plus i had to reassume my role as pack trainer. The wind blows through my fur and the trees blur past me as i run, I'm going so fast it felt like my feet aren't touching the ground, like I'm flying.

It does not matter where I run. They will both follow...

Whispering. “Run.”

She moved to the side, "Here, run, Maya." I looked at the door back at her, how I wished I could just run away, very far away like she said, away from this hell hole without looking back. I looked into her face; her eyes were daring and urging me to make the first step, but each time I looked at the door, I could only hear Maestro's voice. 'You can't run from me, Maya. No matter how hard you try to.' "Come on," she urged again; I felt the poison in her tone.

I ran. I have been running my whole life. I ran as the slave I was for the sick game the Alpha and his lackeys played for the sake of their amusement. I ran like there was no tomorrow, and there might very well not be if I wasn't fast enough. I ran...because I didn't want to die.

To the impossible bond burning in my veins like wildfire. And for the first time, I don’t want to run.
