Chapter 1

Chapter 1.

‘Run Aze! Run!’ That kept on running in my mind as I make my way out of this dark forest. I kept on looking at the back, checking if someone was after me. But luckily, I saw none. Just pure darkness that was slowly eating everything in this place. The darkness that I'm about to leave.

I'm only wearing a long white dress that I cut for it to be above my knee because it's bothering me from running

Who would have thought that someone—I mean some creatures are living at the end of this forest. But that's not my concern anymore, all I have to do was to run for my life.

I heard them talking. I am mated with their alpha and everyone was angry at me. I never even wished to be with that jerky little dog—I mean werewolf. I won't even risk my life for a stupid mate thing.

Now, they were all after my life and I don't know if the alpha will do anything about that. Well, I don't care anymore, all I have to do now is to escape in here without looking back and without them knowing where I am.

Since the day that I've been there, everyone treated me like a family. Not until they found out who their Alpha's mate is.

Is that even possible? I mean I know that I never saw who their alpha is, I haven't saw even his face yet but I know his capabilities, I know what he can do. He can easily find and get me in a snap and the fact that I still don't know where to go, bothers me.

I just kept on running, I sometimes fell on the ground because of the tree's roots but even bruises, wounds or broken bones won't stop me.

I feel empty, so empty like I forgot to bring something and it hurts. It felt like I'm being stabbed by knives but I don't have time to go back, either I like it or not. I should continue what I started and that is to run away from everything, including my friends. I know they'll understand me.

I am a coward, I really am. But don't you dare judge me just because I ran away, you don't know anything.

I sighed in relief when I finally saw the road after hours of running. But sadly, I won't find any vehicle or person to ask for help in this past midnight. Everyone's asleep now.

Argh!! I'm not really familiar with this place! I won't even get lost because I have nowhere to go in the first place!

Where should I go? Left, or right? Well right is always right so I'mma go to the left side. I started running again towards the left, I don't know why I can't feel any tiredness but I erased that thought. I should be thankful that I ain't tired right now or else, I'll get caught.

I can only see trees in here, aside from that, there's nothing but an empty place, but as what I’ve said, I should stick with my decision. I'm a coward but I always stand on what my decision is.

If someone can see me right now, they'll think I'm crazy because of my appearance, messy hair, muddy white dress and it's visible that it has been cut. I feel so awful. I started walking this time because I know that no one will go after me, I mean, they should have caught me a while ago since their ten times faster than me, maybe they just want me to leave.

It took me hours and hours of walking till I saw the sun slowly rising as my eyes sighted a car from a distance. Oh, thank God! A new hope filled my heart as the car stopped right in front of me and a man with a pair of amber eyes greeted me.

My eyes literally stocked with his mesmerizing eyes. Not minding what he's saying, his eyes magnetized my attention already. I traced his nose from his eyes then his pinkish kissable lips using my eyes.

"Miss? Hey! Are you deaf?" I snapped out when I heard him raised his voice.

"Uh…yes?"

"Oh, I thought your deaf or something. By the way, can I help you? I saw you from afar and I assumed that you needed help, never expected that I'll find a goddess in a place like this.”

"Oh, yeah. I…can you help me get out of here? I mean, if that’s fine with you." What's happening with me? I'm not a fan of love at first sight, okay? Maybe I was really just mesmerized by his eyes for me to stutter.

"Sure, hop in." He opened his car's door for me and I didn't hesitate to go in. I shouldn't trust him but I need his help right now.

"So where should I drop you?" he asked as he started driving.

"I actually don't have a place to go now," I answered him honestly.

"Can I ask you what happened? You actually look like you've been kidnapped and escaped, should we report this to the police?"

"Uh no... I just got lost actually, so yeah," I answered awkwardly. I don't have any idea what to answer him.

"So, I'll just take you home with me for you to change then." Oh shoot! Where should I go?

"O... kay," I said unconsciously but honestly. I really don't have any plans for my life. I just tried to escape and the boom! I'm here, trying to figure out where I should go and how I can live.

"Can I... Uhm live with you for a week? I mean—if that's ok with you, I- I'll try to pay you if I found a job. I just really need a place to stay." I said. I know that it's not necessary for a woman like me to ask a stranger- especially a guy to let me stay with him but I'm really desperate now.

"Sure, I actually have available rooms since I'm living with my own now so there's no one in there except me, are you comfortable with that?" I just nodded. I sighed with relief knowing that I won't be homeless, for now.

We stayed quiet ‘till we get to his place. He opened the door for me and welcomed me.

It's a big house for a man living by his own. It can actually fit a whole family.

"Sorry, I haven't really cleaned yet so it's still messy," he said as he picks some used clothes from the floor.

“It's okay." I walked towards his couch and sat there. I won't wait for him to ask me to sit. I'm too tired to stand for minutes again.

"Follow me. I'll bring you to your room and give you some clothes to change," he said and started walking.

Hm... nice ass. I'm not a pervert okay? I just admire him, that's all.

I walked after him to the second floor of his house.

"This will be your room. My room is just beside this so you can call me if you need anything. But, don't ever go to the third floor," he said after he guided me to enter my room.

"By the way, you can use the clothes in the closet right there." He pointed out the closet in the right side of the room just beside the comfort room. His menacing amber eyes landed on me before he left the room.

I picked some clothes and took a shower before going to the bed. I want to have a nap but I'm having a hard time to sleep, trying to figure out what I can do.

I started on the blank ceiling and waited for myself to be eaten by sleep.
