So it’s been 6 days since I tried to run, but I’m still not giving up. It’s hard with having Eliah around every day, I’m never alone.
My days have been pretty routine, I wake up to the Alpha asleep on the couch, I go to brush my teeth and take a shower, I come out to Eliah.
I spend the whole day watching movies/tv shows and Blasting music until it shakes the room, thanks to the speakers I stole from the entertainment room. I'm ignoring everybody, the Alpha included.
I’ve been having visits from Dr. Kizer, who says I’m healing perfectly and faster than he expected. I stopped using my notepad, I just give head nodes here and there.
I walk around the house to get out of the room but pretend that it's just me in the house. Steph and jasper try to talk to me but ignoring is my game and I’m a pro at it.
I see Zara stair at me with her dagger eyes but I’m way past caring to worry. I eat in my room with Eliah well not 'with' more like we're in the same room but I pretend I’m alone and him having to eat here because he can’t leave my side.
I never see the Alpha, he comes to the room after I’m asleep and mostly leaves after I’m in the bathroom. A few times he’s tried to talk to me but gave up when he realizes I’m not giving up and continues to pretend he's not there.
Eliah try’s to talk to me a few times but I’m thru with people. So.... that’s my routine. Today I’m doing the usual, dancing around the room blasting music, Orishas -Represent Cuba.
I see out the corner of my eye Eliah nodding to the beat, he notices me watching him “ I love this song, you can’t help but dance to it” he says and starts cha cha dancing so I decided to join him and we start cha cha together.
We had a whole dance party for 2 hrs straight, I can’t lie it was fun, dancing to rap, country, R&B, pop, and much more. we both realized that we love a lot of the same music.
After the dance party, I was going to go back to how things were. I mean I have to look out for myself, not let anybody in to hurt me anymore but something felt right about him. I don’t know why but even tho, I still need to be on guard.
“ you want to go get some snacks from downstairs and watch a movie” he said snapping my out of my thought and even though after what I just told myself I nod yes.
so we found some goodies, of course, the house stays packed full of food having to feed a pack of werewolves. We head to the entertainment room but my siblings are there with a few others and I don’t feel like getting annoyed today so Eliah turns and says” let’s watch it in the room, ok” and I nod yes.
We go to the room and get comfy. We realized we not only have the same taste in music but also movies and tv shows.
We both looooove the horror genre, so we choose to binge-watch all the classics, like the Halloween movies instead of the 3rd, which we both agree was trash, but that Michael Myers takes the crown for our favorite boogie man.
It was the longest conversation and most time I’ve ever spent with someone and we never ran out of things to talk about. So that became my new routine.
It was not like before where we were two people who were forced to be stuck together, now it was like two friends wanting to spend every minute together. I tried to keep in mind to not get too comfortable but it was hard because every minute we spend together we got closer.
Having a dance party everywhere we go, bing watching movie and shows. Right now we're deep into a supernatural marathon, which I was surprised that a werewolf-like Eliah would be a fan. I thought only teen girls and housewives love this show, but he said he loves the fighting.

I notice that Kloud and Eliah are getting closer and it makes me jealous that she won’t give me a chance and that another man is closer to my mate than I am.
But I have so much Alpha business to focus on. With me being the new Alpha I have to take that role and handle my responsibility of the pack.
My parents went on a trip and the last thing I want is for them to come back and visiting the pack and say that I wasn’t ready and think they gave me the position too early.
*Kloud
I’m now allowed to go out of the pack house to walk around the front yard. while Eliah and I were outside I saw an opportunity and took it.
But I surprised myself by having to think about it, which I never thought I would second guess this ‘want’ to be free but I've never been so close to someone like I am with Eliah, but I can’t pass up this moment, so as we were walking I started movie closer to the woods and slowing down little by little so Eliah doesn’t notice.
I was as far from him as I knew I’d get so I sprinted into the woods as fast as I could. I've healed a lot since I last tried to run, so I’m able to move faster.
I hear Eliah behind me begging me to stop, but I can’t. I have to try but it's not like last time where I had a head start, so the Alpha is right behind me. He jumps in front of me starring me down.
His eyes screaming for me to stop but I can’t, if anything these past 6 years has taught me is to fight. So I try to dart past him, but he nudges me knocking me to the ground.
He shifts and angrily throws me over his shoulder. I try everything to get him to put me down kicking him, punching him and scratching him but he acts as if I’m giving him a massage instead of attacking him.
We come thru the tree line and he throws me to Marcus like I’m a ball. Marcus catches me and Shylar orders him to take me to his office, then look to Eliah and tells him to follow.
As we’re in the Alpha’s office which looks like every man's dream office. Huge, floor to wall deep brown wood, big wooden desk almost the length of the wall with a chair that looked like it belonged to a king.
A big bay window makes up the majority of the wall behind the desk. Bookshelves that cover the full walls to the right and left of the desk and there were two big statues on either side of the desk that stood a little above the desk of two snarling wolves, looking as they were protecting their Alpa who was sitting angrily starring at me and Eliah.
The Alpha breaks the silence “ How did you let this happen, you were supposed to stick to her at all times, you had one job ” he said to Eliah, who answered with his head bowed looking at the floor in a show of obedience.
" I’m sorry Alpha, it will never happen again, I didn’t think she would run from me” and when he said it hurt me and made me regret doing that to him. The only friend I've had.
“ Well, you were wrong, I guess you’re not as close as you thought you were, and trust me it's not happening again because you’re removed from the position, Bo will be taking over from here on out. I know he will do his job and follow orders."
When Shylar said that on cue Bo comes into the room. I know Bo. Bo Stone is as cold as stone, I’ve never seen the dude smile. He has a shaved head and a scar across his left eyebrow.
He is buff and I'm not sure but it seems to me he purposely buys shirts too small that they look like with one flex his shirt would just fall apart. I can only imagine having him with me at all times, a nightmare.
plus I don’t think I can survive here without Eliah. So I stood up, grabbed the paper and pen off his desk, and wrote “ NO I want Eliah, he’s not going anywhere, he’s the only one I will allow to be next to me”.
Shylar responds “ No, he didn’t do his job. He’s not supposed to be your friend. I assigned him to protect you and to keep you here, and he failed. You almost ran away”.
“ and I will try to run again and fight even harder and I won’t give up, I’ll stop eating. I will do anything, just try me. I SAID HE’S STAYING” I write and give him the paper. He reads it and when he looks into my eyes I see that he can tell I’m ready to fight. So he gives in and says “ fine”
