Chapter 10: Ramsey vs Feral wolves…

Lyla

If there was one thing I knew about our world, especially how the White Moon Throne works, I know someone like Ramsey would not chase me around, begging me to come back to him.

He wouldn’t want anything that would draw negative attention to him, and my status as a mutt was nothing but negative.

If people found out I was his mate, they would no doubt question his status and power.

It might even start a rebellion.

So, if I put enough distance between us, he would leave me alone.

And the human world was perfect for that.

There, I would be safe and free from all the laws binding me as a werewolf.

I had stayed up all night waiting for Ramsey to show up.

But after midnight, I knew he wasn’t going to come and I felt slightly disappointed.

I’d wanted one last rendezvous with him before I left.

I wanted him to remember me, and more importantly, to remember how he lost me for good.

I wanted him to gnash his teeth in anger when he realized I was gone.

But as usual, the Moon Goddess was on his side and he didn’t show up.

By 4 am, I was done preparing to leave.

Back in the pack, a typical Omega’s day starts two hours before everyone’s.

Since they were weaker and slower, they had to start everything extra early to meet up with all their duties for the day.

My heart pounded as I slipped out of my room, gently closing the door careful not to make a sound.

I darted through the dark corridor, using my hands on the wall as my guide as I tried to remember the entrance to the big house.

After several minutes, I finally found the door that led outside the pack house.

Once I was outside, I took in several restorative breaths, ignoring the way my heart was hammering against my chest.

I passed several Omegas going in the opposite direction as I walked to the gate.

I had done my best to look like an Omega.

Oversized dress, hair packed into a bun… and I was holding a bundle of my clothes with my gaze lowered.

They didn’t notice that I wasn’t one of their own.

But the guards were the real test.

I sucked in a deep breath and approached the first security checkpoint.

The guards didn’t even glance my way.

I passed the second security checkpoint in the same manner.
