THE RUNAWAY

Denial

"Gaza"

I wake up startled, sweat streaming down my face wondering about the dream I just had. I look at my clock and it's 3 a.m. My alarm is set for 4:30 a.m. for training. I personally train my pack's warriors and their children, next in line for their parents title, for combat. My beta, John, trains the omegas of my pack house self defense and a little offense at noon and my delta, Ralph, teaches the omega's children at noon also. John and I grew up together, so it was easy picking him as my beta. He is strong smart and stubborn. While Ralph,on the other hand, has shown me where his loyalty lies, and saved my sister's life which I rewarded him to be my delta. Ralph was born and raised a rogue wolf that almost was killed by the former alpha's, my father, beta.

John is a helpless romantic, as far as, Ralph is a real hot head. John is mated to Sam and Ralph is mated to Jasmine. They both are a perfect matches made from the Moon Goddess. I just hope one day I can share that love with my fated mate. Just by saying mate, it made me think about the dream I had last night. After training, I head back to the pack house, use the elevator to the 6th floor which is for me only,until I find my Luna. Then we will share that for together. The 5th floor is for my beta, 4th floor is for my delta, 3rd floor is office space, 2nd floor is recreational, and 1st floor is for the living room kitchen and a big ball room for special occasions. After I shower, I head to the 1st floor for a big breakfast. The kitchen omegas always cook buffet style so everyone can have their options of what they want. This morning they fixed pancakes, eggs, sausage patties and link, hash browns, French toast, bacon, cook to order omelets, muffins, granola bars, oatmeal, rice, salmon patties biscuits, gravy, assorted fruit, water, OJ, apple juice and mimosas for the adults.

After breakfast, I mind link my guards to bring my SUV to the front so I can go in town. My pack is a big community miles away from humans. We tend to keep to ourselves. My pack have everything a city of humans have except restaurants, clubs, hotels,and bars. I am the CEO of many businesses in the human city. I have two grand 5 star hotel, 3 night clubs, which one is for the supernatural of course, and 4 restaurants. These businesses keep me busy and the money flowing for my pack. On my way to check on my businesses, I drive pass the spot in my dreams. I put the car in reverse and top at the beginning of the pathway. I hop out and follow it and come to the entrance of the cave. Just like in my dream, there is a boulder blocking it's way. I stop to think to myself this is crazy. There is no way a 3rd world is beyond here. Stop being absurd and see for yourself Ant says to me. I have passed this pathway and come close to this entrance plenty of times why does everything about and around it seems so different all of sudden I think to him. Hell if I know. He recedes back into my mind and become silent. Out of nowhere the wind picks up and I turn to head back to my car. Just as I'm entering my car, I hear the voice again, "Gaza come to me", the voice says. I ignore it and continue my ride to town.

I visit the hotels and restaurants first. The first club I went to was around 9 p.m. They were stocking beer and liquor bottles and checking the food lists. The first club is called who that. Yes I know why that title, well it's because I hired the best mixologist around the world. Once you get to your second drink, well, you kinda forget who you came in here with. Everything seemed fine and my time is very limited, so I go to my next club called The Vortex. My sister ,Zena, came up with the idea. The Vortex has 4 rooms with bars in them. Once coming through the door you'll have to purchase a pair of air pods that are tweaked out by my IT Tech from my pack. The air pods correspond with each room. which ever room you enter it will connect to the dj's room. first room is the techno room. The second room is r&b. The 3rd room is pop, and the 4tg room is hip-hopap. Once you enter one room the airpods will play the music of the exact room you go into. When you double tap the air pods they will go off, so you can hold a conversation with anybody you want, and a single tap will turn them back on. I walk through the club and check on all the djs. The 3rd club is Enchantress. Now this club is very different. I created this club for the supernaturals ONLY. It is very private club. It is by invitation only. I had my omegas spread the word, among our packs and up on to other supernaturals, to download an app which you have to show an get scanned at the door.That is how I keep up whether the person who is trying to enter is human or supernatural. The club is very big dance floor with a swimming pool right in the middle of it. There are three bars here, the bars are on the east wall and one on the west wall, and a dj booth on the north wall. The supernaturals know how to get a long and party.. They almost made me want to stay behind and party with them. Maybe one of these days I will. Everything was going well so I decided to head back to the pack house. It's 2 a.m. when I get back. I mind link John to meet me in my office before I retire for the night. Once I make it to my office John is sitting in the chair In front of my desk.

"Apla", he says bowing his head. "We have been friends for as long as I can remember. I have something that has been bothering me and I need you to see to it", I say to him. "What exactly would you like me to do?" he responds. "As for now I just need you to set up a meeting with a very special and old shaman named, Antwon. He belongs to a pack named Blue flame in the Himalayas." I reply. "May I know the reason for this meeting? As a friend I am asking you this", John asks. "I will inform you and Ralph just as soon as he arrives."
