Run Away Novels & Stories

Running away held the most appeal. I didn’t like to think I was a coward, but just then, I felt I was. I didn’t want to see him. But did I have the courage to run away and let him win? I was not the kind of person that rolled over and played dead. I wasn’t sure I could live with myself if I let him run me out of town.

They spoke in hushed tones making it impossible to hear them and they all turned to me when they were done. The one who had tackled me earlier moved forward, "Move!" he growled. I didn't think twice, I grabbed onto Haris's hand and bolted. Why are you running away from mate? Harlyn out as I tried to get Haris to move faster. I didn't look back as I ran, I didn't want to as my fear drove me to move faster. I just wanted to get away from a life that would be similar to what I had endured and escaped from, that is if I am even spared.

When I tried to get into the car, she tried to open the door on the passenger's side. I snapped, "Stop. Could you just get off my back?" I had raised my voice a little. Jeannie froze with shock, though I saw her shoulders shaking. Seeing her like this annoyed me even more. "I know you're after my family's funds. Don't worry, the investment is still a going concern even if we don't marry. Happy now? If you are, go away." When she did not respond, I stepped on the gas and sped off. Those inside the private lounge of the bar, both familiar and unfamiliar, were discussing my running away from the wedding.

Alpha Zack would arrive at the pack house in a matter of hours, and with him, the chains of a fate she refused to accept. “We need to leave tonight,” Jade whispered urgently to Sophia, who stood by the door, her eyes wide with fear. “But your father-” “I won't let him hurt you,” Jade interrupted her voice firm. “We'll be careful. We'll find a way.” Sophia nodded, though her hands trembled as she clinched the edge of her apron, “where will we go?” “As far from here as we can,” Jade replied, her mind racing with possibilities. “There's a human town beyond the northern Woods. we can start their blend in and figure out our next steps.”

Elise snapped, her voice full of anger. "Elise," Helen looked into her eyes, "I appreciate everything you’ve done for me these past years. Without you, I might be dead—or one of my children might be. But I need to leave the country before he sues me." "What? No, baby. You can’t run like you’re some kind of criminal. He’s the bad guy, not you, sweetheart. You can’t abandon ship just when everything is starting to come to light." "I know! I know it would be selfish because a lot of people depend on Reynolds LM, and we’re supposed to bring them peace again... but I can’t risk my children."

~CAMILLE~ “Do not wait! Run! Escape! Leave here!” Those words resounded in my head. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. I didn’t look up; I didn’t know where I was going, but I kept running. I wanted to escape. I wanted to leave everyone and everything behind. Did the moon goddess give me a second chance so that I could go through the same hardship again? No! I wouldn’t let that happen. This time, I would escape. I would run far—so far that nobody, not even the goddess, could see me.

'What are you going to do? "Run," I said, staring down at the pile of money. "Three years. I've saved enough. Time to find somewhere new."

Top scorers in other states were hungry for those spots, and it chilled me to see how this naive bunch of children was acting. I pinched myself hard on the thigh to force myself to clear my head. "Let me go home and amend my admission to Northrind. I promise I won't tell on you." "Don't even think about it!" James and others dragged me to the train station and took a group picture of everyone, claiming it was their last crazy act as youths and that they had to make the most of it. My voice started trembling when I saw the train's departing time getting closer. "I promise I won't say a word. Just let me go home now, or I'll yell loud enough to get the police here!"

Like hearing a war cry when you are the last soldier standing and thought the battle was over. “Fuck.” I have no choice but to run. Before they get here to find their dead, whatever it is…. brother, sister…. friend. It's gender-neutral, as far as I can tell. I tug my cape around me, haul ass, and start heading toward the mountain as fast as I can, dagger in hand, and abandon Kaelin's designated stay here post. I don’t think he’ll be all that mad at me running away. Moving is better than being dead.
