Willow POV
I feel him left off of me but I can't bare to open my eyes. I feel very ashamed of myself.
"I have to head back down to the party but stay here I will come back and get you." He says as he fixes himself. I hear his footsteps going to the door. I do not open my eyes until I hear the door close. I open my eyes and I cry. I let out all my bent up frustrations. I sob until I feel myself become drained. I slowly push myself of the sofa and grab my clothes. I put on my tights and try to cover myself as much as I can with my torn shirt. I walk towards the door and listen for anyone on the other side. When I do not hear anyone I walk out of the door. I go the back stairs not wanting to see anyone even though they are probably still at the party.
As I make it to the ground floor I head to the kitchen. I know it is late and Greyson probably gave up thinking I wasn't going to make it. But I still need to leave I can't look the Alpha King in the eye ever again after today.
As I walk into the kitchen I see Greyson pacing back in forth with his hands in his hair. He hears me come in and stops to stare at me. He swiftly comes to me and pulls me into his arms.
"I thought you chickened out when I couldn't find you." He says as he pulls me tight. I feel him sniff my hair before he growls. "What happened?"
I begin to sob unable to answer him. I am too ashamed to even look him in the eye. I am too dirty even if he is my mate he wouldn't want me. He pulls away to look at me. I look to the floor unable to meet his eye.
"What did he do? I can smell him on you" he says angrily.
I sob harder at the thought of him knowing what happened.
"I am going to kill him. Alpha King or not he has no right to hurt you" he snarls as he turns towards the door.
"No!" I scream grabbing his hand. "I just want to leave" I say trying to pull him back. When I see that he isn't turning back towards me I pull a little harder. "Please Greyson can we just leave."
He slowly turns towards me. I can see he is trying to control his anger. He looks down at me. "I'm so sorry. I was supposed to protect you and I let this happen."
"This isn't your fault. You have protected me more than you know and I thank you for that." I say as I try to give him a smile. I know he knows it isn't real but he still smiles back.
"Come on let's get out of here" he says as he pulls me towards the back door.
I follow him out before he stops on the porch and turns to me.
"Do you need to pack anything?" He ask as he looks at my empty hands.
"No I only have these clothes and nothing else in my cell" I say embarrassed at my lack of things.
He silently turns back around and pulls me past the garden towards the woods. Once we are deep into the woods he stops and turns to me.
"I know you didn't ask me to but I want to. I am going to go with you. I do not feel comfortable with you leaving on your own. I want to be there to protect you." He says looking slightly embarrassed at his confession.
I smile brightly up at him. "Greyson that is very kind of you to offer but I can't accept. You have a life here I don't. I can't ask you to leave your family, friends, and team behind."
"I don't have any family here my family died when I was young. My team already has a new leader. While I was training to become Gamma we already picked someone to replace me. They will be fine. I already planned everything out" he says looking at me earnestly.
I sigh not seeing a way out of this. I would love to have Greyson with me but I feel it is asking too much from him.
"You aren't forcing me. I am doing this of my own free will."
As I take in his words I nod. If this is what he wants I won't stand in his way. He turns back to walking down the path.
After walking for a few minutes we get to a road. I see a black SUV waiting. I get nervous thinking that we are going to be caught. Greyson glances back at me sensing my nervousness.
"It's the car we are driving out of here" he states.
I breathe out relieved as we walk towards the SUV. Greyson opens the passenger door for me to climb in. Once buckled in Greyson closes the door and crosses over to the driver side. He slides in and starts the car.
When we start driving I look in the back seat and notice a few suitcases. They must be his. I turn back towards the road and I see the pack gate up ahead. I hold my breathe with my nerves getting the best of me. I turn away as we pull up to guard shack. I don't want them to recognize me and ask too many questions.
"Hey Fred how's it been going?" Greyson ask as he rolls down the window.
"It's been a busy night with all the guest coming through" Fred says.
"Yeah I am going out to meet some guest that got lost" Greyson says.
So this is his friend hopefully he doesn't ask anymore questions.
Fred nods as he waved to warriors to unlock the gate.
As the gate opens and we leave the territory I release my breathe. I smile as I feel the weight of everything roll off me.

Greyson POV
As I glance over at Willow I see her smiling. I can't help the smile that makes it's way to my face. I am so happy I am able to save her from this life.
I become angry as I think about what the Alpha King did to her before we left. If only I told her to meet me earlier maybe it could have been prevented. I grip the steering wheel tighter as I think about him forcing himself on her.
"Thank you so much for doing this. If you didn't save me I don't know what I would do. Please don't blame yourself about what happened. I am trying to leave all the past behind" she says looking at me smiling. I can see the tears in her eyes. I try to rein my anger in so I can comfort her.
"So are you hungry? I figure we should get something to eat before we get to where we are going." I say trying to change the subject and lighten the mood
"No I don't think I can stomach anything right now. I am too excited to see everything. By the way where are we going?" She ask as she looks out the window.
"I figure it would be best if we go to a safe house for a couple weeks first before we settle in someone where. Do you know where we are?" I ask her as I realize she maybe doesn't even know. She has been locked up for so long and has never really been anywhere.
"I know we are in the US but besides that I don't know much. All my information came from my mother or what I heard from other pack members."
"Well the pack is in Wyoming and we are going to Montana the next state over. The pack is located deep in the Yellowstone park. It's location is why it's name Moonstone Pack" I inform her glancing at her. I turn back towards the road.
"Oh I didn't even know the pack had a name." She says so softly I have strain to hear her.
"Well we will be moving into the city away from the woods to make it harder to locate us. This car we have will mask our scent. Also I have something that will mask it while we are on foot. I also have changed the GPS so that the signal it broadcasts will give them the wrong location. We will be safe and I will dump the vehicle after we get settled." I say trying to make sure she is reassured.
"When do you think they will notice we are missing?" She ask turning to look at me.
"At 5am when I am not at training and breakfast is missing. But that gives us a 6 hour head start. They will probably give up after 2-4 weeks thinking possibly I kidnapped you." I say half joking. Knowing Seth I know he would think I took Willow for myself.
"Well I am happy it was you who kidnap me" she says smiling at me.
I know things have not be an easy for her but I am happy she can still smile. I will make sure that nothing will ever harm her again. I will make her future bright so she can forget about her past.
"You should get some rest it will be a few hours until we are there." I tell her glancing over at her. She yawns and nods her head as she lays back in the chair. I grab a jacket from the back so she can cover up. My jacket looks like a blanket as she snuggles underneath.
I focus back on the road. I get comfortable for the long drive ahead. Towards our new future.
