I Ran Away From The Hunter Novels & Stories

And yet, the fear surfacing around me still has the same intensity. ‘I gotta get out of here. I must,’ I shouted inside my head. If I was able to escape death multiple times, then I would do it again. Ashley needed to be exposed, and I was the only person who could bring her down. I ran as fast as I can in hope that my hunter would not be able to keep up. I jumped through the big boulders and hidden mazes. I needed him to lose my scent. I was desperate. But to my horror, I saw a cliff at the end of the trail.

Narrowly dodging another bullet, I flung the door open and raced into the backyard. My bare feet carried me as quickly as they could across the large lawn and toward the woods behind it. Perhaps if I could reach the woods, I would be able to hide among the trees until Andrew arrived, or maybe I could reach one of the neighbors’ houses and get help. It was a long shot, but it was better than nothing— A bullet shattered the dirt beside my foot. My heart leapt, and I ran faster than I thought possible. “Run, run, as fast as you can.” Chevalier laughed. “I love a good hunt!”

Luckily I wasn't far from an Academy where I was able to get stitched up and a blood transfusion. I’m not always the luckiest person, sometimes I get myself into situations that I almost don't make it out of... But that is the life of a Hunter. The life that I chose when I was 12 years old, the life that I had lived ever since. I stepped into the bath, and slowly lowered myself down into the steaming water. I exhaled as I let the hot water wash over me, taking my troubles and tension with it. The water turned a light shade of pink as I rinsed my hair and I realized I had blood in there too, I just couldn't see it.

“Why? because I'm too weak?." “Yes. Tell me the truth Rainee, I already know some of it." “My mate did. He was going to hurt me, I'm sorry." Hunter whispered something. “What?." “Get out, leave " “I…okay." I did not even need to go back to my room, I just turned to the door and started walking away from the house. When I reached the gate, I heard a very loud howl from inside and I started running. *** I kept walking through the road that I felt would lead to Lantharn, I was asking Hunter about how to get there and he told me.

“Take her away. Don’t let her set foot in my pack ever again.” At Hunter’s words, Conner ventures a swift glance my way and in his eyes, I see the look of triumph. It is a triumph that will be short-lived. He makes a move to grab my hand but I slap his arm away and lift my head defiantly towards Hunter. “I will leave on my own. But I swear upon the moon goddess that you will live to regret casting me out of your pack.” And with that, I run. I run from Hunter’s packhouse, I run past the gardens, I run past the fields and then into the woods.

Again. Hunter pulled back abruptly, a sharp, almost panicked gasp escaping his lips. He pushed himself away from the bed, scrambling to his feet with an almost desperate urgency, as if the bed itself was burning him. Without another glance, without a sound, he turned and practically ran from the room, the quiet thud of his bare feet echoing down the hallway before fading into silence. He needed to escape, to put distance between himself and his monumental mistake.

I can't believe I shaved my legs and put on a gown, thinking it was a date or something. He only needs me to investigate his dead ante and use me as bait for Killian. I swallowed the tears that tried to find their way to my eyes and looked at Hunter with a smile. “I have to go. I will be back,” I said and turned, running away. I could hear hunter shouting my name and running after me. I hastened my pace and locked my door before he could get in. He knocked for a whole and stopped. I heaved a sigh of relief; the sigh soon turned to sobs and then tears.

My first real memory since I came here. I was shocked and I must’ve slowed my pace. *** I heard chuckling behind me. I looked back and saw Hunter catching up. He'd already caught my trail. And of course, he'd follow me at a dead run. The Hunter. Damn him. I looked beyond him back at the open doorway of my hut. I just have to outrun him. Racer stepped from behind a tree in-front of me. Making me squawk and skid to a stop. His arms were crossed over his chest as he stared chidingly down at me. "Did you think escaping us would be so easy."

All the guards pull their bows and arrows. They point them at me. They are going to fire silver arrows at me. They are going to kill me. But Hunter holds up a hand to stop them. I halt. The whole world stops. "I always knew you were destined to be a luna," Hunter says. Then I turn and run. I don't stop. I can't stop. I run out of my pack grounds, knowing I will never return. I run as far and as fast as I can. I run into the forest.

Alice's point of view: I ran out toward the training field only to meet Hunter. Can my day have a chance to get even worse? I've tried to turn back while intending to avoid him. The thing is that he spotted me before I could run away. "Hey! Alice..." He called after me and I took my time while being in a deep conversation with my inner demons about if I shall keep running or I had to answer him back. You might be wondering who's that Hunter guy I'm trying to avoid, or actually escape and you have all right too.
