I Will Escape

chapter 18

I wake up to the morning sun shining in the window thanking god that the Alpha isn't here. I stretch my

arms in the air, and I feel automatic pain. This isn't going to last forever I keep telling myself over and

over again trying to make myself feel better. Jazz is silent. I need to keep fighting. I force myself to get

the strength to get out of this bed. I can't start pitying myself. I'm in control. I keep repeating it to myself

hoping I will believe it. I am full of emotions. I just want to cry out and try to relive myself of this sadness

that has overcome me. I look at myself in the mirror as tears are streaming down my face. My eyes go

black, and I punch the mirror. It instantly shatters. The fire lets up inside, and I'm ready to explode.

I open the front door, and I shift into my wolf form. I run as fast as I can. I don't even know my

surroundings, and I don't care. All I see is woods.

Jazz yells, “Freedom!”

I respond, “Not just yet. We need to break through the barrier.” I feel amazing feeling the wind blow

through my fur. I feel like myself for the first time in months after being tied up, chained, and locked up. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Jazz asks, “What is your plan Sabrina?”

“I have no idea. Just run until I feel like we are in the clear,” I respond.

“I hear howling. Fuck! Jazz, is it them?” Not knowing is terrifying. Not wanting to go back I run faster

and faster. I feel a bolt of electricity go through me. It knocks me out of my wolf form.

Jazz yells, “We did it! We broke through the barrier! Get up you need to keep running now Sabrina.” I

go to stand up and shift back to my wolf form. I continue to run like hell.

Jazz says, “He knows you broke the barrier now, so run like no other.” I'm scared as I run with

everything I have not knowing if it's enough to escape. My mark is gone, and he can't sense me like he

would have if I bared his mark.

I'm exhausted from all my running. I'm still in the woods, and I don't know where the hell I am. I don't

want to stop. I don't want him to catch up to me, so I continue running as fast as I can. I have slowed

down extremely from exhaustion. I look for a tree I can climb to hide in and sleep.

Jazz says, “Sabrina, we need to rest, or you are just going to past out from exhaustion. We can't have

that.”

I respond, “I know. I'm too afraid to stop, but we do need rest.”

“Look there's a good size tree. Do you think you have enough strength to climb it?”

“I don't know Jazz.”

“What about the bushes? Can you fit there?”

“I'll try.” It's a perfect fit thank god. I smile and lay down.
