"Somethings happening and I don't like it" Baekhyun shivered.

They continued to the dining room in silence. When they walked in they saw the rest of the group sitting at the table already.

"What is going on??"

Y/n POV

I leaned against a tree, out of breath, and beads of sweat running

down my face. I felt Mia's hold on my back tighten, indicating that she sensed something. I took a few more deep breaths before adjusting Mia on my back and dashing off at full speed into the forest.

After running far enough, I saw a cave in the distance. I guess I found a temporary home.

~Flashback~

"Who are you, Y/n?" Suho asked.

I stiffened. Mia looked up at me, as if feeling my tense state. I let out a sigh to relieve my nerves. I was going to have to tell them sooner or later. I opened my mouth to begin my explanation.

"I'm-"

The door slammed open and revealed the General with two soldiers at his side. Our attention turned to the door. I hid Mia behind my back and watched what was going to happen.

"General, What brings you here to disturb our morning?" Suho asked, irritation clear in his tone.

The generals eyes wondered to me then back at Suho.

"You are housing a wanted  criminal from over 10 kingdoms. There are people at the border demanding her back for execution." He stated while reaching for his gun.

I watched my mates stiffen at the news. I tilted my head down and kept my eyes on the floor. I should have been the one to tell them. Now they're going to misunderstand.

I heard the click of the gun and I decided that was my cue. In a flash, I had him pinned to the wall by the throat. I held his gun in my other hand and aimed at one soldier.

"Nobody move or else I shoot!!" I shouted, my finger on the trigger. I made eye contact with my mates and felt a sting in my chest. The look of betrayal in their eyes was the most painful thing I have seen. I forced myself to look away and looked at Mia.

I gave her a look that said,'You have a choice'. She nodded and tip toed toward the door. I knew she would pack our stuff and meet me to run away. It was already planned out...

I punched the general, causing him to falter back. Then proceeded to hit both soldiers on their neck, knocking them out cold.

I was about to run out the door when I looked back. My mates were watching with wide eyes. I mentally cursed myself and looked at them with sad but loving eyes. I ran out to meet up with Mia. With the General on my tail and my mates doing nothing about it...my initial instinct was to run.

I ran through the halls and towards the room. I heard no footsteps behind me, which only broke my heart more. They didn't come after me...

I opened the door and saw Mia holding two bags.  I grabbed a few weapons and the book from behind the dresser and stuffed them into the bag.

I saw Mia struggling to hold the two bags. I rummaged through my poker to feel a familiar cloth. I pulled it out to reveal a large velvet bag. I opened the bag.

"Put the stuff in the bag."

She nodded and dumped the items from the two bags into the velvet one. This wasn't just any bag. I stole this from a collector. A special bag that has an endless capacity and special ability to stay light and flat.

The bag turned flat after a few seconds. I folded the bag and it it back in my pocket. Then I shifted into my wolf form and later down so Mia could climb on.  I felt her climb on and grip onto my fur.

I broke the window them jumped out of the 7 story room. I landed on my paws and began running into the forest. That's when I heard the howls of agony.

'I'm so sorry'

~End of flashback~

I collapsed on the cave floor, out of breath. Mia jumped off my back and put her hand on my head, brushing my fur back to calm me down.  I shifted back into my human form and put my palm on the cold rigid floor.

I know for sure we were far away from the palace,but not out of the kingdom. I sat up and took out my bag, taking out an apple.

"You hungry,Mia?"I asked while taking out a dagger. She nodded.

I sliced the apple and handed her piece my piece until the apple was gone. I then stood up and looked outside. The cave was different from the last one. It was much bigger and colder. I looked at the sky, the sun was setting.

I sighed and looked at Mia.

"I'm sorry I got you into this" My voice was barely loud enough for her to hear. She stood up and hugged my leg. A small smile made its way into my face as I patted her head.

"Let's rest for now. Then tomorrow we will look around." I stated.

She nodded again and went deeper inside the cave. She shifted into her dawn form and curled up into a ball. I followed and shifted into my wolf form then laid beside her. I wrapped my tail around her while she rested her read on my back.

Soon enough, she was out cold. I stared off into the night sky. My heart ached slightly. I thought about my mates. The look on their faces when they found out...

I could never unsee that. I was about to lay back down when my head felt like it was being cracked open. I held in the pain as to not wake Mia up but the pain was unbearable. My claws sighed deep into the floor.

My heart felt cold and empty once the pain went away.

I shook my head and laid down to sleep.

Only one thought filled my head before I drifted off.
