Chereads / Running From The Alpha King / Chapter 20 - Shifting

Chapter 20 - Shifting

Bella's Pov

My finger tips were grey. I managed to clean off the mud off my palms but not my finger tips, which mud dried on to it. My palms looked dry they were begging for hand,cream.

They mostly looked dry because of the little bit of mud I couldn't clean off.

I rubbed,my hands together creating a sound what,was not pleasant when knowing that it was,your palms together making that sound.

This just shows how dry my hands were.,I stopped for a while,I used the tree beside,me help me get down.

When I felt my ass,touch the wet muddy ground, I let out a sigh,of relief.

My throat and tongue were parched.,I needed water, I finished a bottle.The only bottle I brought. I really did not think through this.Where was I actually running,too? What if this forest never ends? What if a rogue comes and kills me? What am I going,to do? I knew I couldn't go back.

Even if I wanted to go back, I couldn't. I was lost.

I looked around the dark forest. Silence dead silence ,that is what frightened me the most.

A forest is never this quiet, you would,always hear something.,I should have planned this out. God! I'm,a coward.

For running away, I couldn't deal with the rejection a fter one beautiful magical night.

I was cold blooded rejected. I wasn't strong enough to face him for another second because if I did,I would cry.

I promised myself that I wouldn't cry over,him,about the rejection.

Forgiveness is a big part of my beliefs, I'm,not saying that I'm not angry at Hunter. I'm just saying that no matter what i love him and,I would always forgive him.

I just hope Paige didn't tell Alex. I know how much she wanted to.

This girl has been practicing in the mirror how she would tell him and Hunter if necessary.

I close my eyes as I rest the back of my head on the dark wet tree. I let the memory of Hunter comfort me. I sigh. I miss theold time.

I opened my eyes and stared up into the sky.,The sun was setting.I couldn't see much of,the beautiful orange sky but it was enough,to admirer.

Ir was enough to know that I far from Hunter,I'm free.I heard a noise.I tried to jump up but failed.

I could barely move all that running made my legs hurt. I heard it again i started getting scared.

What if it's another wolf, a rogue or maybe a witch. I know there is not many out there,but there is enough to kill one wolf.

Am I going to die? I was so deep in the woods,that no one can find me. Maybe I was in some other pack's territory.

The pacing of my heart break increase as the sound of the noise got louder and closers.

It was like someone stepping on dry grass.,"Wait I smell something"a voice says.

Oh my gosh, there is someone here with me.

I looked around for somewhere to hide.I knew the tree wasn't enough to hide me. So i panicked, which is the stupidest but most understanding thing to do.

I jumped in the nearest branch, which was a big mistake because I'm sure they heard me loud and clear.

I heard footsteps getting closer and closer."I told Johnathan there is someone here"one of them cheered.

There were two people. One I'm sure was a male.His voice was deep but he sound childish.

I tried to stay very still. I was in danger for sure.,"I think it is a female"another voice said.

Sniff sniff sniff, I was panicking.Why did I leave? I don't want to die.

My breathing picked up and it couldn't,got back to normally. I was sweating badly ,and my bones are hurting.

I wanted to cry out in pain but I kept my mouth shut. I wasn't gonna let them kill me.

Not now, not today i was exposed as one of them removed the leaves on the branch and stared at me.

It was just a blank stare.Neither of us moved or spoke then darkness took over.
