Chapter 18: I would never hurt you.

~Amara~

A few days after the sudden end of the Friday dinner, it felt like everything was back to normal again. Not the usual ‘good’ normal because there would never be anything good about this Pack, but at least no one was scared of any werewolf getting murdered anymore.

Adrik hasn’t made any stupid advances towards me too and I’ve been on my lane, just doing the daily chores that were meted out to me while trying to find a way to escape. I was sure that Elsie would have gotten contact from her cousin and by now would know that I’d been missing for weeks.

I suddenly grazed the floor so hard that the skin on my knuckle came off. In frustration, I dumped the washcloth that I’d been using to scrub the floor and stood, inspecting my now bloodied knuckle.

I tried to wipe the blood with a finger but immediately regretted that move. Pain shot tingles into my brain and left me frozen for some seconds. I never realized that the abrasion was so deep.

“Oh, fudge. Why would they even give me

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 19: This or That

    ~Amara~“Oh, goddess! You scared me”. I gasped, holding my chest.Katherine uncurled herself from my rickety bed and walked up to me, a look of disgust flashing in her eyes.Surprisingly, I was not as much faltered by her presence as I used to be. If it was before, I would have been internally vibrating from all the energy that she pulled off but now, I just stared at her like a troublesome child who likes to disrupt their mother’s nap time.“Why are you here? Last time I remember, you’re supposed to be in Adrik’s chambers attending to his primal needs while also being his dog. Don’t tell me that he has relieved you of that duty?”I couldn’t stop the words flowing from my mouth. It’s like when you’ve had enough of something and it starts to turn your belly so bad that you need to get rid of it in the toilet.Katherine has been under my sleeves for a long time and I had been condoning her because of her witchy powers; I mean, I don’t want to be turned into a cat- not that I hate cats-

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 20: I missed the joke

    Amara~I walked around the pack house, looking around for some sort of savior that the moon goddess will send to me.Yes, I know that I have made it a habit seeing that Katherine was always on my case and Adrik had his hawks all looming over me. I’d already accepted that getting out of this place was impossible; at least not alive.Maybe I should just accept my fate and stay here in submission to Adrik. I don’t even know why I kept on disturbing myself about Lucian. No matter how much I try to lie to myself, I knew that I really wanted to see him again. And maybe he would get to know that I am his mate when he finds me again.I wondered why Katherine wouldn’t use her witchy powers to compel Adrik to love her. Why put out her frustrations on me when I detest even the air that he breathes?I exhaled deeply and turned over to the wing overlying the Pack house. Maybe I should try to train a little to build up my endurance. I got to the training ground and met Chad training some of the you

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 21: It’s just a kiss

    ~Amara~“I know that you’ve been trying to escape for a long time now and it has been almost impossible for you. I’ve been waiting to see if you will ask me for help concerning it but you haven’t been forthcoming with it; probably because you feel that you cannot trust me”.My mouth hung open at the possibilities of what might have happened since he managed to know about my plans. Has he gone to Adrian with that knowledge or does he still plan on doing that? My brain raced with the possible lies that I could come up with to defend myself.“I can help you”, he continued. “I can help you escape from here”.I blinked severally to make sure that I was not hallucinating or hearing things that were not real. Was he trying to test me? To know if I will succumb to whatever scheme he might be planning with Adrik so that they will have enough reason to eliminate me?But I looked at him, and his eyes didn’t feel like there was deceit in them. They looked sincere and the way he gazed at me told m

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 22: Love me too!

    ~Amara~ The few days that passed in a blur had Chad treating me so sweetly and making me feel so desirable. I knew inside of me that what I was doing was wrong, not just because I was pregnant with my mate’s pup, but also because it was a dangerous affair. Maybe that was what added to the intrigue of it all. I hadn’t allowed him to possess my body completely yet, not because I didn’t feel the urge, but because I was still trying to keep a little bit of respect for Lucian until perhaps he figured out where I might be and came to save me. Yes, I know that I might be delusional for thinking about a man who had abandoned me and who might be rolling about in his sheets with another woman right now, but I just felt that I would be better if he just rejected me after finding out about our bond. A small smile lit up my face as the thought of Chad crossed my mind. Was I throwing away my chance at happiness by not agreeing to run away with Chad? During one of our stolen brief moments, Chad h

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 23: It must be HER!

    ~Lucian~Due to Marcus insisting that I meet with Adrik to find out what he wants and why he had to be so violent with his mate to get his message across, I finally agreed to accept Adrik’s invitation to what he called the dotty cocktail party. It had taken a lot of persuasion and push for me to accept to go to his pack.I knew that there was no way that alpha Adrik would be seeking peace without a fight. He was the most cunning and probably most dangerous werewolf in the kingdom and he never had denied the personality. I knew that his inviting me to this so-called peace-seeking party had some evil agenda attached to it, but of course, there was no way I’d go back there without a backup plan so I placed some of my warriors strategically around his pack, waiting for a sign from me.Immediately I’d stepped into the party room, my body tensed and the hair at the back of my neck stood. I felt eyes watching me and I scanned the perimeter out of character but I couldn’t find anyone specific

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 24: I don’t want it.

    ~Lucian~It may have seemed like decades since I heard that voice but it’s been haunting me in all my dreams. I see her every time and I listen to her talk all the time. It was like she had taken hostage of my dreams.I slowly turned around, still scanning the party, my eyes lingering on any long curly black-haired woman in the crowd but she wasn’t there. The only person who was there was Lily, her eyes wide and smiley and her unwavering clench in my arm tightening. “I was asking why you didn’t introduce me properly to Alpha Adrik. Shouldn’t he know that I’m not just one of the women who you fuck when you’re bored?” Lily asked, still holding onto my arm.I hated the sound of her voice. How dare she contaminate the most memorable sound that I’ve heard in a long while with her squeaky voice? I disengaged her hand from my arm a little roughly and pinned her with a deadly glare.“And who are you to say that you’re not here just because I’m bored? You must think so highly of yourself to w

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 25: I’m so glad that you’re here

    ~Amara~ I sat on the floor of the room, crumbled into a messy ball when Adrik walked in. After I’d seen Lucian with the gorgeous lady by his side, I had assumed that she was the one he had replaced me with. It was further confirmed by the way he kept on looking at her while he spoke. Even though I could see little from the window space, and even though I could see just his back, I knew that he was gazing at her with such fondness that he had never used on me.The way she clung to her arm like a bee to honey, and the way her wide eyes looked up to him adoringly like a god, I just knew that there was no way Lucian was looking for me. I could swear that he had forgotten all about me and moved on with his life.My heart had felt so heavy like heaps of lead had been placed on them. Watching them be so warm and loving to each other had torn my heart apart. It shattered the remaining hope that I had left of him finding me. And from what happened, he obviously hadn’t noticed that I was his m

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 26: Shut up and kiss me

    ~Amara~“There really was no fire? You made the whole thing up?”, I asked Chad who seemed to be enjoying the lie that he told Adrik way too much.“Yes. I had to get him out of there somehow. And you looked like you really needed help”Well, he wasn’t wrong about that one. The last thing I needed was Alpha Adrik harassing me all over again in my state. I’d been so glad that Chad showed up when he did because it would have gone deeper then. Adrik’s demons were out to play.I was still in my thoughts when I felt my left ear being tickled by something. I turned quickly to find Chad working my ear with a leaf that he had picked from the ground. After the incident last night, Chad had taken me home and left after making sure that I was okay and that I had all I needed to sleep well, including a light kiss on my lips.This afternoon, he had come to sneak me out of the mansion into one of our spots in the woods where according to him, no one ever comes and Adrik’s spies would never locate eas

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 87: Choose

    ~Lucian~I watched as Amara walked away, her back stiff, her head held high. But I knew…I knew that she was hurting. And I had let it happen. I could have run after her, given her reassurance that her fears were invalid, and kissed away the sadness on her face.But I helplessly watched her walk away, visibly hurt from my actions. I hadn’t realized how much I’d hurt her, and no, I’m not trying to make excuses for my shortcomings. Granted, Maya’s arrival had swayed me for a moment, but that doesn’t mean that I’m considering starting up anything with Maya.All I wanted was for her to get better, and for me to get the closure that I’ve so desperately wanted all these years. No matter what, Maya was a woman that I once loved, and a woman who had died carrying my baby…or so I thought.Right now, though, she was starting to cross her boundaries by spilling nonsense to Amara. And now I have to try harder to make amends for the damages that se might have caused by her words.“Lucian,” Maya cal

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 86: No denials

    ~Amara~A week.It had been an entire week since Lucian’s first love had come back from the dead, and in that time, Lucian had become a ghost in my life.If he wasn’t tending to Maya’s every need, he was listening to her endless sob story or fawning over her like some love-struck fool. He had barely looked at me, barely spoken to me. And worst of all, he hadn’t even checked to see how I was doing.Even after I pleaded with him to stay with me that night. Even after I told him that I wasn’t feeling good because of the baby; he still went ahead to be with her. He never even came back the next day, or the day after, to check up on me and see how I was faring.I placed a hand on my stomach, feeling the faint stir of life within me. Did he forget? Did he forget that I was carrying his child? That we were supposed to have left this place days ago to prepare for the birth of our child? Or had Maya’s return erased everything we had planned all this while?I clenched my fists. No. Something wa

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 85: The distance

    ~Amara~I paced back and forth across the room, my mind racing with too many thoughts, none of them making any sense. My heart pounded against my ribs, restless, uncertain.Lucian should have been here by now. But instead, he was with her. No, I wasn’t trying to be mean, or inconsiderate, but this all felt wrong to me somehow. None of what had just happened sat right with me. I felt like Lucian and I were about to lose the connection that we had just built.I ran a shaky hand through my hair and exhaled. I didn’t want to feel like this. I didn’t want to be jealous, or insecure, or whatever this strange feeling was twisting inside me. But how could I not?Lucian had told me; he had sworn that his first mate was murdered. That he saw her lifeless body with his own eyes. And yet, the woman who collapsed into his arms, the woman who had called out his name, was the very same mate he had believed dead.How was that even possible?I sat on the bed, tapping my fingers against my knee. But a

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 84: Once dead…

    ~Lucian~No way.I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.My body turned rigid, my breath caught in my throat, and for a moment, my mind refused to process what was right in front of me. Was it because I’d spoken about her the other day? Was that why her ghost decided to visit me one last time?I glanced over at Amara, trying to know if she could also see the woman in front of us. The expression in her face said that she could see the figure. Same with Selene and the other werewolves.They were all staring suspiciously at the woman, their weapons drawn. All it would take was a command from Selene and they would strike. I should say something, but I was too dumbfounded, trying to place the pieces of the puzzle in my head.She stood there looking as confused as a newborn cat whose mother was taken away. Her body swayed slightly, as if the wind alone could knock her over. Her clothes were torn, hanging off her like rags. Dirt and dried blood smeared her once beautiful skin, and her hair wa

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 83: Not okay.

    ~Amara~Everything finally felt okay.For the first time in what felt like forever, there was no tension between Lucian and me. No anger, no lingering hurt. Just peace.I had forgiven him; not just in words, but in my heart. And because of that, I was finally able to look forward to the future we had ahead. A future I was now willing to share with him in his kingdom, where our child would be born.It had taken time to get here, to move past the betrayal, the heartbreak, and all the chaos that had come with it. But Lucian had fought for me. He had proved himself over and over, and I had finally allowed myself to believe in him again.The decision hadn’t been an easy one. The rogue lands had become a kind of refuge for me, a place where I had healed in ways I never thought possible. And Selene had become someone I deeply admired. She had opened my eyes to a different side of the world. To a different kind of strength.Two days from now, Lucian and I will leave. But tonight, we were cele

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 82: A second chance

    ~Amara~That night, I couldn’t sleep. It wasn’t just because my baby decided that midnight was the perfect time for him to go on a rollercoaster, but because of what Lucian had told me.It would have hurt so much holding so much pain inside, and not having anyone to share it with. I couldn’t imagine what it had done to him, and how much it must have mandated him to change.All these years, I’d misunderstood him, and I never let him try to explain himself. I started to feel a little guilty, but I quickly schooled myself. It wasn’t really my fault if I’d misunderstood him all this time. He could have explained things to me sooner if he trusted me enough to handle his secrets.“I think it’s time to forgive your father, little wolf,” I murmured, stroking my belly. “What do you think? Do you think I should keep up with this grudge? Or should we just let everything go?”I received double kicks, which I took as a sign of affirmation from the little life inside of me. A smile lit up my face,

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 81: The Grievous Truth

    ~Amara~ I waited with expectation, waited for him to recollect himself and tell me about this thing that had happened long ago which I was not aware of. It wasn’t just because I wanted to hear it, it was because of the way his face contorted with grief as he lowered his head, almost as if he was fighting back tears. He couldn’t be possibly fighting back tears. Alpha kin Lucian never cries. If he was about to cry, then this event must have hurt him tremendously. I found my heart reaching out to him, making me realizes that the feelings which I thought was buried has never been buried. I cared about this man, and I still care about him. I was hurt seeing him hurting like this. “Lucian,” I called softly, my hands itching to comfort him, “Talk to me please.” He raised his head and leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees, his hands clasped tightly together. His eyes, usually so fierce, looked haunted. “I’ve never told you about my first mate.” The mention of another woman, hi

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 80: Why are you still here?

    ~Lucian~ Despite my initial mistrust, Selen’s Pack had become a surprising comfort to me. I found myself being drawn to their unrestrained way of life. They were free, untethered, untamed, and fiercely independent. At first, I’d thought that they were not to be trusted. That they were threats to the kingdom and the Packs around them. But the more time I spent with them, the more I’d come to understand them. The rogue wolves were an enigma. They were untamed and unpredictable, but they carried a raw sense of friendship and closeness that reminded me of something that my kingdom had long lost. Their laughter echoed in the woods, their disputes were resolved without formality, and their freedom was intoxicating to witness. “They could thrive under my protection,” I said to Selene, standing by the edge of the clearing where a few of the rogues were sparring. “With a home in my territory, they’d have safety, stability. They wouldn’t need to live like rogues.” All day, I’d been trying

  • The Alpha's Runaway Breeder   Chapter 79: You’ll wait forever

    ~Amara~A week after, I still hadn’t gotten over the thought of what had happened. Selene had been protective, almost like a mother. Always fussing about my baby, and what I should or should not do in order to have a safe delivery.According to her, it was only a matter of weeks before my baby would be born. The news had come gladly to Lucian, who on many occasions had tried to talk to me. But I was never in the mood to listen to him.Somehow, I blamed him for all the misfortune that had happened in my life. I blamed him for the death of every single person who had meant a lot to me. I always told myself that if only he had treated me well, and seen that I was his fated mate…if he had loved me the way that I loved him, maybe I wouldn’t be in this mess right now.But who was I deceiving? We all knew that my mother who allowed my stepfather to sell me out for money was the cause. She didn’t fight for me because she didn’t want to be on the bad side of her husband.I sat beneath an old s
