The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0207

So, I do what I’ve done every time something bad happens. I run. I duck out of the packhouse not letting anyone see me. As soon as I see the forest, I take off. I may have been tired earlier, but my adrenaline is pumping now. In a fight or flight situation, I fly. And that’s what I’m doing. I’m running as fast as my legs will carry me.

I hear the sound of paws digging into the earth behind me. They are coming after me. They are going to catch me. If they catch me, I will be a prisoner again. I can’t go back to that place. I can’t live like that again. I can’t risk losing Alessia when I’m so close to getting her back. Maybe if I can make it to the Canyon Ridge Pack, they will give me refuge until I can figure something else out. It’s not the best option, since they all seem to be friendly with Liam, but it’s the best option that I have when I literally have wolves breathing down my neck.

I push harder, faster. There’s only one place that I know to go where I might be able to get away, and I head to the waterfall. It won’t help to hide my scent, they are too close. But maybe I can crawl down the cliff face. They would have to shift to follow me, and it will give me a few extra minutes to escape.

When I get to the falls, I start to climb. It will be easier for me in human form than it will be for them in wolf form. I’m about halfway up when I hear it, the howl of a familiar wolf. I turn and see Cyran looking at me. Alessia whines in my head. She wants her mate.

‘We can’t have Cyran without Liam, Alessia.‘

‘I know, but it doesn’t make it any easier to lose him when we’ve only just found him.‘

I don’t have time to argue as I see Cyran start to follow me again. I climb as fast as I can, but he’s fast. I’ve just gotten to the edge of the cliffs when I hear Cyran whine behind me.
