VISHAL After running for hours to escape the Alpha King’s soldiers, I finally crossed the border into my pack’s territory. My heart pounded with relief, but I knew I wasn’t safe yet. I ran straight into the thick forest that led to our pack house. It was the only way to lose the men chasing me. I knew it would be much harder for them to track me through those dense woods. I had never run so much in my entire life. Ever since I escaped from the Alpha King’s prison, I had been running non-stop. I must have covered a thousand miles, but his men kept following me. It seemed like they had no choice but to catch me, though I couldn’t understand why they would come this far just to capture one person. My lungs burned as I gasped for air. My legs felt like they would give out any second. Fina
