I hate this marriage, but what choice do I have? I just have to go through with it.
It broke my heart completely when I saw my mate on another person's legs, kissing.
I mean, I've been waiting for years for her, I disagree with any proposal to get married to another maiden. I felt disgusted with her, I mean..how could she? Like, I didn't get with another lady just because of her and she couldn't wait for three years?
Scoff. I'm such a fool, I should have known.
Last Friday, I had a meeting with the ministers. Yes, I'm the Alpha. But at times we need the consent of others.
My parents and the ministers literally forced me into marriage, I was not happy with it a little bit. I've always wanted my mate.
But seeing my mate in the arms of another man is not only devastating but heartbreaking. I mean...why does the moon goddess have to tie me with a cheat as a mate. Hell, I did nothing wrong.
Sigh.
I've not been myself ever since I saw her with another man, they say long impressions last long. But fucking hell, this hurt a lot.
She should have rejected me. No! I should have rejected her the moment I saw her in the arms of another man. But I couldn't, I was so hurt that I could not think. All I wanted was to leave that place.
The pain is so much that I can't attain it. I just want it to go away.
"Fuck, Jayson! You reek of alcohol. You really need to fix yourself up." A voice said.
I looked up, oh, James. When had he entered??
"You should have knock,"
Wow! I still have the strength to talk?
"More like why didn't you answer?"
Oh.
I look away from him. I needed a drink, so I grabbed the bottle from the floor, taking it to my lips. I felt nothing. I looked down at the bottle, it's empty.
I force my eyes to look at James. He was just staring at me, and I fucking don't care. Not right now.
"I need a drink," I said instead.
"No, you do not. You need to get your ass up and get ready. The ball is in a few hours."
Ball? What ball??
Confusion was written all over my face.
"Ha. Don't tell me you've forgotten, Jay." He brought his right hand to his forehead. He took a deep breath. "You're truly a case. It's your ball today. You get to pick a Luna."
Oh.
I guesture my hand to him, he should help me get up. He pulled my hand up, I wasn't stable. I couldn't stand it very well.
Sigh.
"You're a mess," he chuckled lightly. "C'mon bro, let's get you ready for your day." He taps my shoulder.
I glare at him and then groan. "I really don't want a Luna, James."
"Not like you have a choice."
Sigh.
Fuck, mate why? You could have at least waited a day or so for me. I was so fucking close to getting you then you had to ruin it all. I fucking detest you.
Sigh.
I walked out of my office to my room. Actually, I have this office in my room, just down the stairs. More like my private room, I come here whenever I want to be alone. Only James knows the code in, if not he wouldn't have gotten me out. And then the ball would have been ruined.
Ha.
Now I wish I didn't tell him.
Sigh.
"Okay, can you at least stop sighing?" James asked out of frustration.
A deep sigh.
He snicker, pushing me towards my bathroom. "Go bath buddy, coming for you in 20." He said looking at the time on his wristwatch.
I just let out a loud groan.
**
Here I am, standing in all my glory, in front of the mirror. A black tux. That's what I'm putting on, I rake the comb in my hand over my hair. Combining it to the side, satisfied with what I did, I dropped the comb back on the dressing table.
Looking at myself, I'm handsome...I mean, I'm literally powerful. Every wolf without a mate wants me. What is it that I don't have? She decided to seek from the man who's literally under me. I chuckled at my antics, she's crazy.
A breath emits my lips.
I really don't want this marriage, but what choice do I have? Eh! I can't lead without Luna and I'm not ready to leave my position.
I guess what they finally say...it is what it is.
A knock on my door was heard. I adjusted the suit on my body. Looking at myself once more before moving away from the mirror.
"Come in." I said.
The door opens, and Ana enters. Here comes the trouble.
"Damn! Why do I have to be blessed with such a handsome brother?" She says.
I rolled my eyes, dramatic I tell you.
"Stole all the beauty from our parents. Reason behind your ugliness." I chuckle to myself.
A light scowl forms on her face, "yeah, at least I'm not blessed with a cheat as a mate."
Ouch.
I blink at her. Does she expect it to be funny? Because it's not.
"Shit," she mutters lowly, "Jay, I'm sorry i–"
"It's okay." I cut her off. Turning to the mirror to hide the hurt from my face. Adjusting my perfectly aligned hair. "You were right after all."
Damn! I was just beginning to smile. Fuck you Ana.
"C'mon, let's head out," I say. Moving towards the door, she followed behind.
"Are you really okay though?" She asks. "I mean, your mate thing. How could she do such a thing to you? It must hurt like hell…"
Yeah, it did.
"...she's a total bitch you know," I frown. "I'm gonna slap her so hard when next I see her. So hard that–"
Sigh. She talks too much. See? Dramatic.
"Alright, I heard you. I'm fine Ana. Can we drop this?" I plead. She nods. "Good, parents can't hear of this." I told her. Them knowing sounds like another problem, I'm dealing with a lot right now.
"Alright bro, I gatch ya. Pick the best Luna." She pats my back.
I hope so too.
We turned to the corner on the left, heading to the ballroom. On getting there, I met James at the door.
"Thought I'd come to fetch you again."
I rolled my eyes. He opened the door and we walked in.

The runaway mate 7|| The ball.
Stacy's PovStrange after so many years, I still remember the way to my pack. I'm so tired and dehydrated. But I can't relax, I can't risk it. I cross the border to my pack, I breathe a sigh of relief. I'm free, I'm so free, finally. I slid to the floor, crying my eyes out. Crying because I made it out alive, crying because I was not sexual assulted, crying because I'm happy I can finally be with my mate. I regretted that day a lot, the day I ran away. I shouldn't have. My biggest mistake. And now, I really hope he won't reject me and give me a chance to explain myself.After calming my nerves down, I stood up and started walking again. I still don't feel safe till I make it to the pack house. After a few minutes of walking, I saw the building not very far away. From where I am, I can hear the loud banging of music and lights flashing. What's going on? Seems there's a celebration. With the main house full of guests, I won't locate my mate fast enough. I sigh. What a great day today

Stacy's PovI was relieved. He didn't marry her. After he walked out, Mila fell to the floor and started crying. My- Her parents went to her side to comfort her. I smiled bitterly. God, I hate them. I am beyond ecstatic, I just feel the need to celebrate my victory.But I shouldn't get too excited, there's no chance that Jordan might accept me. I walked out of the room. But I didn't go outside the main door. Instead, I found myself in a hallway. Where the fuck is this?"Stacy?" A voice called. I stiff, who knows me? Oh, God. Please help me. Slowly, I turn around and I met with a guy. A guy. Who's he?"Sorry, who?" I asked as quietly as I can. "Oh," he said.He looks somewhat...hurt? I frown. "Oh?" I raise my eyebrow at him. He smiled, "Stacy, where have you been? I looked for you. I missed you." His voice gives away the sadness. He moved closer and wrapped his hand around me. He feels familiar. I moved back and look at his eyes, brown? My father's eyes colour… I opened my eyes wide

Jordan's PovI pace back and front in my office. I've should have called the security but I don't want anyone knowing about this till I know why the fuck she came back.It's been three hours, three hours since the ball, everyone left two hours ago, yet no sign of her. Where did fuck did she go now? Or has she left? I stopped, she didn't...right? I let out a nervous laugh, she wouldn't just leave after she appeared. So where the fuck is she? I groan, running my hand through my already messy hair. Jesus, Stacy, you'll be the end of me. The sun is still setting but no sign of her yet. I should probably give up. She left, she didn't want me. Hell, another heart break. I let out a painful laugh. "Can you at least stop pacing around if you won't tell us what the hell is wrong." Ana said. Yeah, both her and James won't leave me the fuck alone. The 'i wanna be alone' words seems hard for them to understand. I ignored her and continued pacing.Yeah, I should stop. I mean, she left me. I sh

Stacy's Pov"You should walk faster, Stacy." Billy's voice disrupts my thoughts.I raised my head up, seeing I was far behind, I jogged up to where he was. So what if he doesn't accept me? What if he locks me up in a cell? Let's not go there, he wouldn't do that. I mean, I'm sure he didn't mate with Mila 'cause he saw me there. Sigh. Fuck my life.We've gotten to the Alpha house but I was hesitant to go in. I'm sure he isn't expecting me. "Go in," Billy said.I nodded and started moving. I stop in my tracks, I turn back to Billy. He raises one of his eyebrows. I sigh, "What if he rejects me?" I asked him."Do you have any reason for him to do so?" "Not exactly," I sigh; I tend to do that a lot. I'm really stressed. The fact that he caught me on another guy's lap with my lips locked on his, I don't think he will. "I don't know, Billy." I said instead.He rubs the bridge of his nose, "He won't, Stacy. I don't think there's a reason for him to do so." He purses for a while, before add
Last Updated : 2022-08-27The runaway mate 11|| I found my mate.
Jordan's PovI caught her before she could fall on the floor. She looks pale. I touch her forehead with the back of my right hand, she's burning up. I panicked.'James, get the park doctor and meet me in the room next to mine. Now!' I told him through mindlink.'Yes, Alpha.' That's one thing I like about James, he knows when things are urgent. He doesn't ask stupid questions like Ana does. I stood up with Stacy in my arms, I yanked the door open. Using my speed, I ran to the room next to mine. I'd have taken her to the park hospital, but I can't risk it.I don't think I want people to know that I've found my mate, at least not yet. She's yet to explain what she wants, mate or not. She hurt me.I felt the spark as I held her close to me. Fuck the bond.I hurried to the room and placed her on the bed. Within 30 seconds, the door burst open. James and the park doctor entered."Doc, she fainted." I said with worry lace in my tone."Calm down, Jordan. She'll be okay." She moved toward h
Last Updated : 2022-08-28The runaway mate 12|| Are you okay?
Stacy's PovI grunt. Christ, I feel sore all over, my eyes feel heavy. As if a huge block was placed on them. My throat feels so dry. My head is pounding. And my body, don't let me get started with that. Slowly, I opened my eyes. I squirt because of the brightness. I close my eyes and open them again, adjusting to the light. I take in my surroundings, the unfamiliar place. The room was painted in blue and a stripe of white. The big bed was placed at the center, with two bed drawers by each side. On the drawer on my left, a lamp was on the top of it. While to my right was empty. There are three doors. A bathroom and closet and the door to outside. Where am I? IV was connected to my hand. Why's there IV on my wrist? I tried to think back to what happened but that resulted in more pounding in my head. I groan, just what I needed. I tried to stand up but the pain I'm feeling at my back isn't helping at all. I exhaled loudly before giving up and just laid there on the bed.'Where are we
Last Updated : 2022-08-29The runaway mate 13|| I feel bored.
Jordan's PovI pull my glasses off, and yawned, stretching my hands to each side. I feel exhausted. I glanced at the time, 9:45pm. I sigh as I rubbed my eyes with the back of my hand.After I left Stacy's room, I've been busy ever since. The news has spread like wildfire. My mate is here. Not that I mind tho. I'm sure they'll soon start asking for her, wanting to see her. I heard someone footsteps approaching my room, it stopped. The said person seems hesitant to knock on the door. If it was Ana, she'd never knock. That girl has no manners. Is it James? I doubt he'd have mindlinked me instead. It can't be Stacy. Or is it?A knock resonates, a purse. Another knock. I didn't stand up from where I was. Whoever is it should grow courage. And then another knock sounded before I decided to go check who it was.To my surprise, "Stacy?" What does she want? "What are you doing here? Is everything okay?" I asked. Or why else will she be here...right?"Yes, I just wanted to talk, I feel bored.
Last Updated : 2022-08-30The runaway mate 14|| Are you avoiding me?
Stacy's PovWith each step I took, I hoped he'll call me and ask me for an explanation. But he didn't. Who was I kidding? I should have explained when I had the chance, instead I kept my mouth shut. I don't know what's stopping me. I'm such a fool. I ran to my room and cried my eyes out.**A week has since I last talked to Jordan, a week has passed since I last saw him. And not a single day did I not think about him. Whenever I ask James or Ana about him, they just say he's busy. But I know it's more than that. And I think he's avoiding me.I should talk. Billy said I should not chicken out. With that thought in mind, I stood up to do my morning routine. Jordan bought me a while closet.I wore a yellow summer dress and a black pair of sandals to go with it. I pull my hair into a free ponytail. Apply little gloss on my lips. With one

The runaway mate 51|| Luca.
Epilogue.Months later...Third Person's PovThe rumbles of Jordan's chest and him nuzzling against Stacy's neck woke her up on a beautiful winter day. Despite the already shining sun that seeps through the window, it doesn't help the winter air to run chills down her body. She opens her eyes and sighs in content because of how well she slept, which she hadn't had in a long while since she became the size of a whale."You smell so good, sweetheart." Jordan murmurs in her ear, rubbing her already large belly affectionately. She giggles as stubble tickles her neck as she tries to pull away from him."What are you going to do when I'm not pregnant anymore? Will you not like my scents anymore?" She says, a little frustrated. All she has heard from the past nine months is how good she smells. Does he not find me attractive anymore? She thinks."Nah, I'll always love your smell, but I won't be upset when you get pregnant again and I get to smell it for anot
The runaway mate 50|| Please, don't let go.
Jordan's PovAll I could think of is where the hell are my pack members? We had a plan and now my mate's going to die.They were meant to be here, why are they not here?What's going on?Letting my heart out in a heart wrenching sobs as I watch my mate struggle for her life, finding it hard to breathe. Choking out blood as she did so, it dribbles onto the floor next to her."Any minute now," Dani says hauntingly as she checks her watch again. My eyes flicker to the men standing and smirking at their success. Success to take someone's life.I can't believe this is happening, I can't believe I'm going to lose her. The next thing I know, an arrow is shot through one of the men's heads, completely startling me. His skull bulges out of his head as blood sputters out, him dropping dead on the floor.Gross.The other two men begin to yell in horror and Dani's face falls into shock. Starting to look around frantically as they realize that I didn't come alone."We are here now." I hear James
The runaway mate 49|| I'm sorry.
Jordan's PovWatching my mate laying on the floor was killing me. I had never felt this level of anger towards anyone before. As soon as I get out of this chain, I'm killing Dani.Her face was right down into the dirt, her body covered in blood. I could barely look at her without wanting to scream.I can't believe they did this to her, I really can't believe they hurt her. She knows nothing about this. Growling, letting my frustration rise. The silver was still burning my wrists and legs as I struggled against the chain."Why are you doing this?" I grit out, my eyes are heavy and full of vengeance.Dani laughs at me and begins to circle around the tree. "Oh Jordan, you were always so full of yourself." "What the hell are you talking about!?" I yelled. "Get me out this fucking chain." Her smile changed to a frown, she came forward and gripped my chin, pressing it so hard. "Don't you dare bark orders at me." She spat out. "Why don't we start the show now?" She smirks."Don't fucking t
The runaway mate 48|| Who's the fucking weakling!?
Stacy's Pov'Run!' Star shouts in my head.'What?''Run, you fucking idiot.' Oh, I don't have to be told twice. 'I just did.' I can feel her roll her eyes in my head.Speeding off at her words, I ran from Matt with him hot on my tail. 'Run towards the rocky area up that hill.' And I did exactly as she told me, I reached the top of the hill and stopped. Waiting for Matt to catch up with me. He gets before us in jeffy with a wolfish grin on his face.One I'll wipe off."Where would you run to now?" He barks. "It will be pleasing to kill your high up here before the eyes of all." Let's see who will be killing who.But he was right, we are up so high, other creatures can see us if they look up. "Get ready to kiss death!" I shifted and bounced up on him. Star howls and toppling him over, they began to slide down the hill. Matt shifted midway, his back pressed against the sharp rocks as they slid down. The rocks pierces his fur making him howl in pain, he tries to scratch Star's face
The runaway mate 47|| Where's my mate?
Jordan's Pov"Where would she have gone, Jordan?" James asked me and I shrugged helplessly.Pacing around my office, my hands have worked their way through my hair numerous times. "I don't know. She hasn't really ever left the house without me." I have no idea where she could be.Honestly, she could be anywhere right now, I just hope she's safe.Groaning, I slam my hand onto my desk in frustration, then I hear her voice in my head and everything stills."Jordan…"My eyes water just hearing her voice. She sounds scared, I feel pain in my body, someone's hurting her."Baby, where the fuck are you?" I ask instantly."Are you okay, Jord?" James asked, he noticed my lack of focus."I don't know, somewhere in the woods. A blonde got me, she and Matt are working together." She whimpers.
The runaway mate 46|| To hell with you!
Stacy's PovFear was all that surrounded my body. The blonde woman pulls me towards her by my wrist. Her grip is so tight that I'm sure it will leave a red mark there."Look is all scared," she mocks at me as the other goons inching closer.Goosebumps raise on my body, shivers run down my spine. This is trouble, I'm in deep trouble."I'm so glad that he found you," she smirks at me, "so we can destroy him."They all laugh together…Spitefully.Who are they?"W-who are you?" I slutter.She stopped laughing and looked me in the eyes, "someone your mate messed with." She smirks, "ha, I have a surprise for you."She relaxed on the chair she's sitting on, crossing her right leg over the left. "This is so going to be fun," she rubs her palms together, grinning wil
The runaway mate 45|| Again, I fucked up.
Stacy's PovShe looks so unfamiliar, her hair pulled up in a high ponytail, she had bright red lipstick on, making her tan skin stand out. The look from her face wasn't inviting.Who's she? Did Matt send her?'Unblock mate, let mate come.' Star chants in my head but I'm too scared to move. I can't seem to think straight.She smirks at me, taking slow and calculous steps towards me, making me look like a prey. She crossed her arm around her chest when she got to my front, "you walked right through into our trap." She threw her head back and laughed. A scary laugh I must tell. Three men emerge from the tree, bulky men.I look frantically at them.They all looked pleased with themselves and panic engulfed me. Who the fuck are this people?They all circled me so I can't escape, "goodness, you made it more easier than I tho
The runaway mate 44|| They all knew.
Few weeks later...Stacy's PovIt was late in the evening and I was currently laying across the couch, flickering through endless TV channels, looking to see what to watch.I wanted to curl up and watch a movie with my mate, that's all I wanted.My eyes flick towards the wall clock at the up side, at one corner of the living room. It is after 8, he has been working for the last three hours, he should be done soon, right?Ugh! I need my mate.How pathetic I am. I can't stand being away from my mate for a few hours without missing him.Fucking mate bond.Or is it just me?Arg! Whatever, I'm going for him.I stood up from the couch and made my way towards his office where I know he'll be. I just have to convince him to wrap up his work earl
The runaway mate 43|| Is that so, Luna?
Stacy's Pov"Again!" My stupid mate voice rang through the training groud. He was waving his way in and out of different pairs and with me trailing behind, helplessly. We have been out here for hours, watching people fight each other over and over until I was sure that I could mimic their moves.So when I'm I going to actually train?" I ask, honestly fed up of trailing after him in boredom. He latches his arm across his chest then looks down at me."I'm the only one who will train you, right now, however, I need to watch them." He jerks his head at the others who are fighting.Why's it that he can only train me? Why can't James or Billy do it?Sigh.
