On the run
- Run! Run as fast as you can! Don't let them catch us! Luna's voice echoed in my head, while I was running towards the river. I knew that, if we crossed the river we would manage to escape from the hell we called home.
I had already been on the run for four days and I felt that my strength was leaving me.
"I can't allow something like this to happen! Not after everything I've suffered and endured! We won't allow it again!" I told my four spirits who were my confidants and best friends.
"The best a girl can have," Leya said laughing.
Of the four spirits I had, Leya was the most extroverted....always up to jokes and pranks. The other spirits that accompanied me through my ups and downs were: Fae, the little introverted fairy, who always tried to be the one who mediates conflicts and who only appeared when the arguments between the other spirits escalated, Freys-the mighty dragon who, I admit, had a volcanic temperament (if it had been after her, the pack I was a part of would have already disappeared from the face of the earth, and Luna, my wolf who, for reasons unknown to me, never wanted to appear in front of the pack, letting them thought that I can't shift.
The howls were getting closer and louder. Their howls made me run with increased strength, although I felt that I could no longer, and in my lungs I had the feeling that fire and not air was entering.
"I can't let them catch us!" I whined as my body gave in due to fatigue. "I better die, than going back in that pack!"
- Freys, please help us! I shouted, hoping that my dragon would hear me and help us escape.
- Yes, of course! Now you need me! Now I'm not just a scary creature that spits fire and can fly!
- Freys, they're gonna get us! we all shouted at the same time. And you know what Max said: that we will be locked in the dungeons for the rest of our lives if we try to run away again!
- If Freys doesn't want to help us, I can try! I know I still don't know how to control my powers, but at least I can try! Leya the vampire said.
- Oh please! Stop arguing. And you Freys, you'd better help us get out of this snake hole. Not only Alexis and Luna will suffer, but we too. So Freys what will it be? Are you helping us or not? asked Ferin, the little fairy.
- Alexis, you bitch, stop right now! If you don't stop, all the males in the pack will have their turn with you!
They say that fear gives you wings, but for me, they were not figurative but literal.
- Go fuck yourselves! Luna shouted angrily before Freys took control of my body and rose into the air, right under the noses of our followers.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw how all the werewolves following me stopped in fear of what they saw.
- Max, what the hell! You said she was a worthless she-wolf! I heard alpha Cedric yelling angrily at Max.
- That's what I thought too, dad! answered Max, shocked by what he saw.
