Aria's Pov.

I darted all the way from the river bank where I had stopped for a water break when I saw them chasing after me again. Still in my wolf form, I had all the strength tatic and agility to run from my pursuers. Do I know them? No, why were they after me? I can't say but all I know is I can't stop running.

“Keep running after her. We can't have rogues up in our territory” I heard someone yell behind me. Seemed to be in his human form, but something about his voice rang a bell. It was like I knew who it was.. but… before I could process my thoughts, a sharp arrow impaled my leg making me stagger but couldn't stop me.

“Tired. Tired. Tired” my wolf growled within us and I knew if we stopped we'd be dead.

Ever since I made the choice to stay away from Xanthea, these people have been up in our tail - literally in our tail. Wanting to catch us and throw us in their dungeon.

“This isn't what I wanted. I wanted Xanthea to breathe, wanted him to be himself and be free from my curse.

Tears pickled my eyes as the knife went deeper into my leg, my cry muffled.“You don't Xanthea know what we're doing right? We're having our own girl time. Call it, Xanthea’s girlfriends time” she said, giggling.“Oh look at how you're trembling. Guess they never taught about me, huh?” she cackled like a witch. “Looks like you've stopped crying. Now let's talk” she said, then pulled the clothes from my mouth.“Why?” I said through the pain. The sheets soaked in my blood already but the knife still impaled me.“You see,” she began gently pulling the knife out, “I love Xanthea.

Every night and day, I keep reminiscing about that day like it was yesterday, and at each thought, butterflies clustered around my belly and my face would turn red, making my cheeks hurt.I haven't been able to make eye contact with Xanthea ever since, and always keep a distance whenever we're in contact, which is very often.I could still remember how he held my back, caressing me and kissing all over my nape. The thought made my cheeks hurt and Medina caught on.“I see you're thinking of something,” She noticed while clipping my clothes from behind.I reacted quickly to mask my excitement “I just thought of the party, that's all” I briefly said then turned to the gigantic mirror standing in front of me.

And what Rumors was she talking about? I know Xanthea would be mad if I ask him about it however I am dying to know what the rumors are.“You'll see once we get there,” he said.A long stretched silence filled the car again, and soon we arrived at a fancy Boutique clothing store.Manikin display in the store, putting on the most elegant luxury clothes I'd ever seen.“What is going on here?” I feigned a confused look as I watched him park at the parking lot.Xanthea turned to me and gave me a smile.. “wait

Every bit of it.“Oh my god, have you missed me?” Kisha said in her high tone. I don't know where she went to or why she returned but she was getting on my nerves.“Why the Fuck would you do that?” Xantheas voice caught the excitement in her. Fear engulfed her and her breath hitched as Xanthea continued, “who gave you such a right to lay a finger on me, nonetheless kiss me” Xanthea fumed.Kisha’s gaze met mine, “I wanted us to reconnect….” Her voice was soft like she was about to cry.
