KAYLA.
The forest was alive, the wind rumbling through the trees as I ran. Just then I felt a water drop on my cheeks, I ignored it thinking it was probably dew from one of the leaves, until I felt another and another but this time, on both my forehead and arms.
My eyebrows widened from shock, my adrenaline pumping as I looked up into the sky to see the cloud darken and then what followed next was a loud thunderclap that sent shivers down my spine.
"It was going to rain" I muttered quietly to myself, feeling goosebumps covering my entire body as my stomach dropped. I looked down and could see trees dancing across the ground. Then it occurred to me.
'This was a good thing' I thought as I could feel tears streaming down my face. The rain would wash off my tracks as they come after me.
I increased my pace despite the branches and roots tearing at my skin as I drove deeper into the words. I also made sure to keep looking backwards so as to make sure they weren't following me, but who was I kidding?
I clung tightly to my baby boy wrapped in an already torn blanket by the roots. Suddenly I tripped and fell hard to the floor breathing heavily.
I felt immense pain from the thorn driven deep into my leg and tried not to scream, hissing instead so as not to attract them to where I was.
But unfortunately my baby started weeping loudly, He probably got injured when I fell to the ground.
"Over here, I heard a baby cry." one of my chasers yelled and I immediately gathered my strength and tried as much as possible to get up from the already wet sand so I could continue running.
They can't and mustn't get their hands on me. I couldn't survive another day with that monster.
I tried as much as possible to stop my baby from crying but he wasn't stopping. Instead it got louder. I couldn't blame him. He was hungry and tasty.
He hadn't taken anything for the past 24 hours except breast milk and now I couldn't afford to give him that now or I might get caught.
"But if you don't feed him, his screams will get louder and attract Kaden's men" My wolf, Jessica warned.
I gasped realizing she was right.
'What was I going to do?' I wondered, my heart racing as I bit hard on my lower lips.
"Why don't you just find a nearby cave or something? It doesn't have to be a cave,it could just be a place where you can just smuggle yourself into, like a rock or something" she suggested and I immediately got into action,my eyes roaming about for a safe place to lay low for a while as I kept moving.
My hand over my baby mouth to prevent his cries from being heard but I knew that couldn't be enough, Kaden's men were strong Lycan so they would still hear his cries.
Suddenly I sighted a big giant rock which looked bent over. I exhaled, feeling relief wash over me as I dashed towards it.
It wasn't easy trying to get myself in with a baby in my hand but I had no choice but to try, For both our sakes.
I managed to get in and immediately slumped against it in fatigue. My baby was still crying and my hand over his mouth wasn't offering much help.
Suddenly there was a loud clap of thunder again before heavy rain started to pour. I looked up with a smile even though I couldn't see the clouds and thanked the moon goddess for her help.
Now they wouldn't hear my baby's cries and might not even sight the rock. I finally relaxed, then my body started aching like hell. It felt like I was on fire, because my thighs were burning, my pussy itching.
I started to now feel the pains from the wounds I had acquired while running in the woods. To also think I didn't wait till I was fully healed before I made an escape. I bit down hard on my bottom lips to snap myself back to reality as I felt dizziness hit me.
I sat down on the wet plants and felt rain dripping on me and I fought to shield him from the rain by using myself as a cover and trying as much to make something of his torn blankets.
I raised up my torn top and guided him to my boobs. He sucked on it hungrily and I felt my heart crumbling in pieces, tears gathering at the brim of my eyelids at the sight of his teary face.
How I wish I could avoid putting him in such a situation but there was no way. I had to make this escape for the both of us.
Kaiden didn't deserve us. I adjusted my baby's blanket well to at least protect him from the cold and also tried to use my warm body to shield him.
"I am sorry you have to face this little one" I apologized to my baby who was already falling asleep as his lips fell from my nipple.
I struggled to hold back my tears as I sighted the cuts on his arms. I didn't even have the time to name him because we took off immediately when I delivered.
'My pussy still hurts like hell, but I had no choice, I just had to go, they were going to kill me'.I thought as I whimpered, tears were already rolling down my cheeks.
I hated myself for wishing he was here,I hated myself for ever thinking he could actually care,I hated myself more for choosing him over the one man who truly cared.
Even after everything, I still loved him and found it difficult to let go. I mean why was I still wishing I was in his embrace right now or wondering if he was worried about us?
The bastard only cared about himself. He was just as dreadful as the rumors described but I thought to see the good in him and look where it landed me.
I have to forget him. For the sake of my son. I have to.
"You know" Jessica began. "You are just hurting yourself the more" she whispered and I ignored her.
"I think you should never have left" she said and my eyes widened in horror.
"You know,I tried convincing you otherwise when you were thinking of this insane plan" she continued and I didn't know when I cut in, anger blazing through me.
"Are you kidding me now?" I asked, gritting my teeth against one another.
"Jessica, you know how we were treated, you know what we went through in the hands of that beast and yet you expect me not to have come through with this plan?" I asked in disbelief, my jaw dropping at her words.
"Kaiden literally planned to kill us and take our child away from us. Besides remember who felt the pain of being rejected most,who felt the pain of being seen as a mere toy. It was you, Jessica, you" I yelled at her in my mind crying already.
I just felt so frustrated right now. I had no idea where to go nor whom to run to. I have no idea if we are even going to survive.
It was just like a thorn was shoved into my chest, the heartbreaks were unbearable.
'I had to make it, for the sake of my baby'. I thought as I clutched him tightly to my chest.
"But you know what you did was wrong" She said and I signed.
"Taking his child away from him and denying him the right to ever see him" she added and I fought the urge to roll my eyes.
How could she be emphatic to someone who didn't give two fucks about her?
"Kayla" She called, then paused as if thinking, before continuing.
"I know we went through alot but this is our fate,we can't push it away nor avert it. He is our soulmate and I am sure the moon goddess paired us both for a reason" She explained and I actually thought about it.
I mean I don't understand. Why would the moon goddess pair me with a monster? As if it wasn't bad enough that my family sold me.
I know the moon goddess decides our fate but this time, I will take control of it. Not just for my sake but for my little boy.
"Oh No!" Jessica muttered painfully when she heard my thoughts and I shut her out.
I didn't want to hear from her at this point. I ran my eyes through the empty rock and despite my resistance found myself reminiscing our memories together.
Seeing I was brooding this much, I decided to cut it short. It was a story for another day because right now, our survival was all that mattered.
