Chapter 1

It was so cold. I felt my pulse quicken as I felt my feet imprinted on the grounds of broadway. The air thickened around me as I began to run quicker than I use to before. They were running after me in their wild forms. My canines brushed against my lips as I felt they getting closer to me . The moon was crimson red. Bones cracked as I shifted into a devilish looking werewolf. I dashed my way out of the woods.

The others did not stop, they continued their chase as if I was the only lone wolf in the universe. They have been trying to hunt me down for over four years now. However something was different , they were faster, sharper and stronger. The alpha must have sent great warriors. I guess my blood was precious enough for him to send this great warriors. My heart pumped blood. Shallow breaths made their way out of my lungs.

My limbs were sore from all the running. I wondered how much longer I could run away from them. It has been over 6 hours now. I was exhausted. The sun has dropped down. The moon had appeared in the sky. I came to a quick stop but my heart panicked. I could hear paws moving fast on the ground as my eyes quickly searched around the woods.

Where are the goddamn roads? I groaned to myself. I needed to find my way out of here as I could not longer hold the others off. Branches snapped behind me and a growl made its way to my ears. Fuck!! They are here, sniffing the air, I realized that they were going to surround me any time soon. As they were circling around me, trying to ambush me, but I did not surrender, not yet.

I found my way to the paved roads. As soon as I touched the ground. I shifted back to my human form, cold grazed over my nakedness as I wrapped my hands around my self before walking towards my car. Sitting inside, I checked the dangerous woods, they were gone already. I sighed, nice try but you guys can never catch me. I murmured to my self before twisting my key inside my car and switched the engine on.

I relaxed completely as the city appeared in my view. Broadway. The city that was ruled by the all mighty Alpha- Martin. As per the law of the city, wolves are not allowed to snap at other wolves in the city grounds. Blood could be only shed in the woods alone, nowhere else because humans resided almost everywhere. I also tried to dissolve with the humans and hide my natural scent, but sometimes it’s couldn’t be hidden.

Light flashed over me, I directed my eyes towards my packing lot. Once I sensed no danger, I threw on a jacket over my bare body and stepped out of my car. A loud sound came from my phone. It was ringing. I quickly grabbed my phone and looked at the caller ID, it was Sarah.

“Hey” I said as I picked up the call

“Hey, I have been waiting for over two hours now! I thought you were supposed to be here at seven? She snapped at me sounding irritated.

“I was packing my car. I will be up in a moment, stay put!” I replied.

“Alright ! Just another minute, if you are not here then I’m leaving asap” she said.

“Stepping in the elevator now” I said as I walked inside the building.

The call ended and I made my way inside the elevator. God I was exhausted. I was an unpleasant and rough evening.

“I’m sorry that I could not make it on time. I just had a situation to handle I said as I walked inside my apartment.

“Why are you naked? Did you go for a run? She asked as she glanced at my body

“No I got chased for 6 fucking hours”!! I exclaimed before drinking water.

“What?! Why?” Fright grasped her tone as she realized the truth

They are back on track -to fucking hunt me down," I replied to her.My bones were aching with tremendous pain as I crashed my body on my comfortable couch.

“Why you?” She asked.

Sarah was unaware of the Alpha and his pack. She only knew about little things about my world, after all She was a mere human. The little she knew was from me. I met her a few years back when I was running away from my own pack. We quickly bonded over a couple of beers at a nearby bar. And since then she has been the only friend I have. My best human friend.

I broke the wolf law by telling a human about our existence

“Because I’m a lone wolf, Sarah. They hunt down wolf like me.”

“Then it’s dangerous for you to be here, you should move I can come with you if you want” She said with worry laced in her tone .

I laughed “I can’t escape or move my dear, they would always find me . I can’t do anything expect hide and merge with human,” I explained to my friend.

They are unaware of my real name, job or anything else. They only thing they know is my stupid scent.

“Well you should get some rest, you look tired and exhausted,” Sarah said as she picked up her bag and headed for the door. I invited her over so we could hang out, but it seems like that would not be happening today.

“ I’m so sorry for today. Thank you so much for coming”. I hugged her with my aching body. She hugged me back.

“You don’t have to be sorry I understand you. Take care of your self and have a lovely rest okay.

She waved and walked out of my apartment. I felt guilty that she had to wait for me. Well, there is always another day to hang out.

Once she left. I went back to my lovely couch. My eyes looked up and I saw the calendar, I shrieked out, I realized that tomorrow was the blood moon — the day of mating.

Fuck no!!” The blood moon always stressed me out each and every time. The day of mating, the day of fulfilling desires and finding the one who you would stay with forever. I’m going to be sick.

The fear of been mated and been someone’s property for the rest of me life scares me. I could not even bear male wolves. Due to their stupid nature they were perceived to be possessive, aggressive and violent to their females. It’s also know that in werewolf world females were to be kept underneath men as they were more powerful. Foolish mentality. There is no chance I would ever mate with one of my own. I would rather die than get mated to a men that sees me as nothing be a sex slave, a weakling, a productive machine to bear children for him.
