Xade’s pov
Running through the streets in my wolf form caused more damage than good, but I couldn’t risk anyone seeing me, especially the boys in the dorm building. Since Kyan had yapped about the wolf being me, seeing me right after the wolf was there would raise more questions.
Though I am already certain some saw when I entered the building. any F*ck. I had lost control. Something I knew would happen
ery was in trouble.
had been no other way. But the council wouldn’t let this slide as ample mistake. They’d have me punished either we this had gone.
The last time I had only punched the b*stard but hadn’t risk him seeing me. This will not only involve the council but also my father. There was no way around it this time. I am more than certain the headmaster already knows since the boys cried wolf.
The loud horns, yells of terror, and shock made my cars ring as soon as I burst out of the door. It was hard to leave Avery, but staying with her would let them know that she was my mate.
I wanted to protect my little human as much as I can.
I used my inhumane speed and in minutes I was leaving the outskirts. of the city and heading for the forest. Here it was easier to avoid humans seeing me and risk calling the hunters. But here….it was easier for the council to find me.
The trees became a green and brown haze as I pushed through them with no direction at all. The council would come after me, there was

no doubt about it. I needed to come up with a plan to stall them. They had their ways of knowing things that other supernatural beings do not. Which is why we wolves were the most superior species.
The scent of the earth used to calm me down, but there’s nothing calm being here in these woods with a ticking clock behind my back.
I whined. Avery. I wanted her, I needed her. I didn’t get to say goodbye. I didn’t get to show her how much I love her.
The headmaster knows.’ Xaden’s voice pushed through my head, causing me to slow down my speed.
‘Then they know,’ I spat, my claws digging into the earth as I looked around in alert. The headmaster would have no choice but to involve the council and it wasn’t really his fault. He had to, so I am not mad about it.
‘Yes,’ Xaden sighed in defeat. He called the ambula. to get He’s not dead-
‘He should be!’ I growled angrily.

‘Are you f*cking dumb? If he’s dead you’d be in even more trouble for killing a human! Shit Xade, dad’s going to get involved too. You’ve really done it this time brother.”
‘A human who tried to hurt my mate! He’s not f*cking innocent Xaden. Him dying is doing the world a favor One less scu* on the earth to worry about.’ I snarled.
‘The rules don’t work like that for humans Xade and you know it.’ He replied in a tired voice.
I know. For humans and werewolves, rules and laws were very different, which makes it so hard to be mated to a human. This is why it’s so frowned upon and not allowed seeing as one mate is bound to

die anyway if the human cannot be able to survive the mate mark
Avery. I whispered How is she? Is the awake? How badly hurt v she” Have you brought her to the hostal-
She’s in the ambulance as we speak. I’m with her little brother so don’t worry As for if she’s okay, the b*stad left his hand prints on her neck.” Xaden growled
I should have finished him off, I played too much with my food I snarled in regret I should have killed him there and then, make it quick. I had been too kind
How far are you? Xaden asked in worry. They’re bringing her to hospital for some checkups to make sure she’s okay I’ll keep you notified of every single thing”
I looked around. I’ve never gotten this far in the wo not really sure where exactly Jam ‘Not a clue but de right now Just keep Avery safe
Tore so y
f
sorry a
me
“Will do little brother I’ll hide her if necessary until this blows over In the meantime keep safe and run Don’t look back and run”
And I do. I run until I am not even anywhere close to Avery or Xaden
I run until I can no longer As I jump over a log, my ears pick up on many paws hitting the earth.
They’re quick and powerful, closing around me
The power that’s circled and swarms around me makes me know exactly what and who is there. The council So much for a head start They already found me
