Running With Purpose Novels & Stories

Dad checks his Rolex, “Eight fifteen.” I nod, and pull myself to stand, “thanks dad, you’ve really helped.” “Glad to be of service.” I start running, pulling my clothes off with practiced confidence, jamming them into my mouth as I shift; feet and hands turn to paws as I touch ground, and off I run, full pelt. This is the first time I have shifted since before Jackson captured me and god damn it feels good to just run. But this time, I have a purpose. I have somewhere to be.

*flashback off* The scent got stronger that made my mind back to reality. I looked over my pancakes and chuckled because I always left my pancakes when there's something happened. "I think I found what I'm searching for." I heard a hard husky voice behind me. No.. No.. No...

"We do not fight. If blades come out it means we have failed the only job we were given. Our entire purpose is to be worth chasing and to remain uncatchable. That is all." "If the pursuit splits?" Fen asked. "Half stay on the ridge, half follow?" "We make ourselves compelling enough that splitting stops feeling rational." I met her eyes. "Don't give them a reason to pause. Keep moving. Keep being worth the effort." A breath went around the group—not relief, not readiness, somewhere between the two.

It filled me with strength and calm, preparing me for the important task ahead. As the sky began to lighten with the first hints of dawn, I gathered the pack for a run through our newly expanded territory. We moved as one, our paws thundering across the forest floor. The run was exhilarating, symbolizing the merging of our lands and our spirits. As we ran through the streams and jumped over the fallen trees, I felt a stronger sense of togetherness with each step.

"I have not felt anything like this in all the time I have been feeling things, and what I feel is not only strength, though the strength is there, and it is not only power, though the power is there, and what I feel more than either of those things is purpose, the specific and unmistakable quality of a thing knowing what it is for." She nodded, and her energy shifted in response to his words in the way that energy shifts when it has been named accurately, organizing itself into a clearer form the moment the right language is applied to it. "Purpose," she said, letting the word resonate inside the space between them, "and unity, and the particular kind of responsibility that comes from under

“I know you’ve been through hell, and I know you’re still standing. That’s more than most people can say.” Her breath hitched. I leaned back slightly, giving her space but not letting her retreat. “You think you’ve lost everything—mates, friends, family. But you’re still here. And that? That means there’s still something for you. Purpose doesn’t come gift-wrapped, Zara. You claw it out of the dark, same way you claw your way through everything else.” Her lips parted, like she wanted to argue, but no words came. For a long moment, it was just silence—the kind that hums with all the things you don’t say.

I didn't need to turn to know that it was Chloe. "You never picked me up for the run; I almost got late," she added, wrapping her hands around his midsection, laying her head on his back. "Since when have I picked you up for runs?" Ronan asked, the tone of his voice changing. I bit off a smile when the bitch huffed, letting go of him. I didn't miss the way she practically glared at me; if only looks could kill. Then Kai's voice boomed over the pack members, full of authority and power. "Today's run is for strength and unity. It's not about pace or competition."

Euphoria is not worth it when he has to face her father. He doesn't want the title, he will run from it! A resolution that Remus spoke in his mind for the thousandth time, as he rode Panther. "I will run! Even if he threatens ... I'll run ... Anywhere as long as I'm not in this place!" He said aloud

Glancing over my shoulder to make sure no one’s coming out or can hear us, I turn to him and lower my voice, “I want it to be.” I don’t know how I expected him to react, but it wasn’t grinning like he just got secret intel about winning the lottery. “This is good, Joemar. Cullen aside, it’s been a long time since you’ve spent time with someone who makes you happy.” He stands upright and drinks coffee. “I think we’re going to do runs each morning.” “Why?” “If we start the day with a run, I want you to let your mind cover any thoughts regarding anyone or anything else. Just run it out of your system. Then you’ll be present in meetings, unlike what you were back there.”
