The last few days have been crazy. I would have never imagined this is where I’d be right now. I thought we would be getting
settled into our new roles and maybe planning a wedding ceremony. I was so close, almost getting precisely what I always
dreamed of, and it was taken away from me without hesitation. “I know I deserve all of that and more.” I need to get out of this
house. I need to get some fresh air and just figure some things out.
“I’m not sure.” I walk down the hall slowly, paying close attention to my surroundings. “I’m just not sure that it will work.” I head
outside, letting the sun beat down on me. “I can’t just do that. It’d be too suspicious.” I walk toward the treeline so I can take a
run in wolf form.
I hear a branch rack behind me. I whip around quickly and survey my surroundings. I don’t see anyone in front of me. I thought I
saw a flash of color, but there is nothing there and nothing moving. I must have imagined it. “I do want that; I always have.” I turn
back and continue on my journey. Hazel needs to stretch out, and I would love to let her take over for a while.
I walk past the tree line and walk until I’m hidden from the packhouse view. “I supposed you’re right.” I stop at a large rock and
what I do next.” I close my eyes and feel my bones snap into place. I shake out my fur before letting Hazel take over. I have
some things to think about.

That was close. I thought I’d be able to escape my room and go for a quick walk without bumping into anyone. I figure I’d be out
far enough that I’d be able to think. I really didn’t want to run into Luna Kimberly again.
I made sure to wear an oversized hoodie so that if I did come across someone, they’d be more likely to disregard me. I just don’t
have anything to say to anyone until I figure all of this out. Then I almost run into one of the twins. She was on the phone talking
to someone. Strange that I couldn’t pick up who was on the other line, but it isn’t as if I cared that much.
I quickly run away from her before she could fully turn and look at me. I’m not sure if she caught a glimpse or not, but I’m hoping
she didn’t. I duck around a corner and lean forward to catch my breath. I wait for a while to see if she catches up with me. When
she doesn’t, I keep walking ahead. I have no clear destination, but it doesn’t matter.
The sun starts to go down, and the air gets a bit cooler. I don’t know how long I’ve been going or in what direction. I just took off
with no consideration for an intended destination. I should stop and head back, but the thought makes me nauseous..
I stop and look around me. I’m in the forest. I know I’m still on packlands, but I’m not sure how far from the pack house I am. I
green with specks of color (flowers). There are a few logs covered in moss along the side, and I decide to sit against one to rest.
I look over the pond, trying to come to terms with the recent news. I really don’t know what to do. I’ve been after the twins for a
while now, and I feel as if they are just my speed. They are future Alphas and sexy as hell. Being an Alpha’s daughter, I deserve
nothing but the best. Then there is my fated mate. He isn’t who I’ve been after. What if he is nothing but a lowly Omega? I can’t
be tied to someone who isn’t worth my time. I need someone to match me.
I can hear leaves crunching, and I know someone is coming toward me. I hear no voices, so they must be alone. I seriously
contemplate running away as I did earlier, but truthfully, I’m too comfortable. I really don’t want to get up right now.
I hear a gasp, and my nose fills with the sweetest scent, lemongrass and leather. Oh s**t! I slowly turn around and come face to
face with the most brilliant light green eyes I’ve ever seen. My breath seems to catch in my throat. I don’t move......I feel like I’m
frozen.
My heartbeat picks up and starts to pound. My body starts to shake a bit. I want to escape; I want to run away and hide. My mind
may want that, but my body isn’t responding. My body won’t move at all. “I.....I didn’t think anyone would be out here. I’m sorry.
I’ll leave you alone.”
I don’t want to be left alone. I want the company; I want the conversation. I want to call out and say something, but it feels as if I
forgot how to speak. My mouth feels dry, and my tongue is sticking to the roof of my mouth. I close my eyes, and I take a deep,
shaky breath. It’s now or never, I guess. I’m not sure what this may lead to, but it has to start somewhere. “Wh....what’s your
name?” My voice sounds weak as hell. I open my eyes slowly and see those green eyes staring back at me.
“It’s .........my name is......it’s Mark. I’m Mark Ross, soon to be Beta.”
