The Finisher Runyx Novels & Stories

Xander caught her hand for a split second, then let go when he realized others were watching. The competition, she saw, wasn’t just the run. It was the way eyes snapped to her and Xander, the way Marcus’s silhouette ahead was always exactly one stride out of reach. They were being measured for something, weighed in real time. The finish was a brutal switchback climb. Carolina lost track of who was panting behind her; she didn’t care. She dug in, nails breaking from the pressure, and made the final crest just as Marcus turned, arms folded. Xander arrived next, not even winded.

Rebel pulls Aiden aside, “Nyx, do you want to go for a run? Roxie would love to get to know you too. I can have Austin join us.” “The more the merrier. Thank you for accepting me.” “What’s not to accept? You are gorgeous. I want to see you run!” Rebel and Austin both pull a shift. They are both black wolves, but Rebel has red highlights in her fur. I remember she said her wolf is named Roxie and Tio said Austin’s wolf was named Cronos. Nyx looks at Aiden, “Coming babe?” “Always.” He looked at everyone else, “Anyone who can and wants to come, shift and let’s go.”

Then we walked to the far end of the lawn and he pointed to the old stone wall at the opposite end, maybe three hundred meters away, the oak tree growing beside it. "There," he said. "That's the finish. Ready?" I looked at the distance. Felt Khyra assess it with the particular focused attention of something that had been born knowing how to run. "Khyra and I are going to absolutely kick your ass," I said. Axel looked at me. Then at the finish line. Then back at me with an expression I couldn't immediately read. "Who's Khyra?" "My wolf," I said. "I named her. Don't be a jealous bean."

Her pulse raced. Her breath quivered. Her wolf-less body wavered between obedience and terror. Yes. Yes. Bend. She lifted the blade. Rosalyn frowned, startled. “Maxine? What are you…?” Maxine lunged. But just as the blade grazed Rosalyn’s wrist… a sharp CRACK erupted. Maxine collapsed, unconscious. Someone stood behind her. I felt it before I saw it. A familiar signature of rage and blood. Lorenzo.

She crossed her arms over her chest and stood glaring at him. She wanted to play it this way, did she? Fine. He dumped the clothes on the pallet and glared back. Removing his sage green Henly, he bared his broad, well-muscled chest and arms. He let her take in his clan's distinctive wolf tattoo covering his left shoulder. Runes of protection adorned his impressive torso, climbing up from the flat plains of his stomach to the slabs of hardened muscle covering his ribs. As he dropped the shirt to the ground, he saw the hint of her pink tongue come out to moisten her lips.

Take Finn to—“ She doesn’t finish her words, because at that moment in time, Xaden crosses her, and the next thing we all see after hearing the sharp, wet sound of fangs cutting ruthlessly into skin, is blood splattered on the floor. I blink. Xaden just tears into the boy’s throat with brutal precision, and for a heartbeat, no one moves. Even Liam straightens beside me. Finn’s body hits the ground, falling dead on the floor. Gasps erupt in the hall. Professor Imogene stares at the dead body with wide eyes, then turns to Xaden sharply. “Xaden, what have you done?!” Even Darian freezes, his eyes widening in clear shock. Xaden looks… calm. There is no trace of regret in his expression as blood

I felt bad to lie to her. The ride was a blur and we've arrived at Queen's mate's restaurant. When Fin became a werewolf, he felt a bad feeling when Queen talked to guys in their resto. So Fin made an All-girls resto on the backfield of the resto and sometimes, 'good' girls have their party there. "Cmon! We've arrived." I shouted and knocked on the car's window when i saw Autumn still sat in the car and her eyes stared straight at the car's dashboard. She blocked out too much!

I could see Ryder ahead and sped towards him. Now it was just the both of us racing to the finish line. I stepped on my accelerator increasing my velocity but still couldn't meet up to Ryder's car and he was still ahead of me. Come on! I needed to win this and I increased my speed but it still wasn't enough to match Ryder's and soon he was crossing over the finishing line as a loud bang sounded ending the race. The crowd shouted, standing up and cheering Ryder. I crossed the line mailing me the second runner up of the warm up race.

I and Maximus had killed enough on our side, and I looked at him as he roared confidently and majestically. He looked so manly and attractive to me, even at war. He looked at me and gave me a manly smile, we both laughed and shortly after that, a spear thrust into his heart, coming out halfway from the front and remained half of its length at the back. I was dumbstruck. It didn't look real as my strong alpha went down on his knees looking at me with blood trickling down from his chest and his mouth opened as he gurgled due to the blood that had filled his mouth. He could fall flat to the ground as the spear that went halfway through him was touching the ground.

She added and I shook my head not understanding anything that was going on. "Well we are going to go running so be ready," I sighed and headed outside to the patio. Rune was already standing there with his shirt off. His bare chest was tan and muscular, showing a well-defined six-pack. My eyes glowed brightly as they traveled down towards his V. When I realized that his fingers were unbuttoning his jeans I turned and felt my cheeks heat up. I headed toward the back of his home for more privacy and began to undress. I dropped to all fours shifting instantly into my white wolf. I trotted back to where Rune was and paused at his enormous size.
