Chapter 22: Shattered Safety
Rae’s POV
I wake up to footsteps coming down the hallway. Still feeling tired I force myself to sit up rubbing my eyes awake. Is it morning already? Letting out a yawn and rubbing my eyes one last time but stop when complete and utter terror shoots through my body. Opening my eyes I see Zviad on the other side of the cell bars staring me down.
A wolfish grin spreads across his face “Found you.”
Going into a panic I shoot back against the wall slipping on the straw under me. All I can do is grab the blanket clenching it against my chest. Anything to hide myself from this man. His gaze makes me feel naked and his smile makes me fear what he would do to me.
I see him scowl and the barrier before he laughs with a grin. I watch as he pulls out a small disc like object from his pocket.
Flipping the disc through his fingers he looks at me “If he thinks he can keep you safe wit

Rae’s POV Jeong is leading me around this place. If I ever tried to escape I’d be so lost. He’s leading me to an open door making my eyes flinch at the blinding light. “Where are you taking me?” I hear him let out a sigh “The Hunt is about to begin.” Once outside my eyes begin adjusting to the light. As I look up I see the expanse of the blue sky littered with fluffy white clouds. A gentle breeze caresses my face as my hair flickers tickling my nose. I notice two strange cage like structures. They are floating a couple feet off the ground. Each cage holding half of the women from the cell. There is a high wall and buildings surrounding us. Jeong tugs me towards the last cage taking off the rope and motions me to climb inside. It was difficult to climb inside. Even though the cage wasn’t far from the ground, the floor of the cage reached my mid chest. I wouldn’t consider
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 24: My Escape
Rae’s POV I wonder how much time we’re given as I quickly make my way through the thick brush beneath the trees. I end up stepping on a rock wincing in pain as I stop to see the damage. I have light cuts on the bottom of my feet. I never liked being barefoot, maybe they did this so we couldn’t get far away. I wont let that stop me and pushed forward. The terrain is getting steeper and there are more rocks and larger ones at that. I can hear what sounds like water. After pushing myself further around a bend I found a crystal clear stream. I scoop the water up in my hands and take a drink, it’s cool and refreshing. Maybe I should clean my feet some hoping I don’t get an infection. While rubbing my feet in the water I notice the shackle on my ankle, it has a blinking green light. I don’t remember there being a light before. Staring at it all of a sudden it dawns on me. They are tracking me. Terrified, I realize my dis
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 25: The Hunt Begins
Jeong’s POV Looking down at my wrist I can’t help but feel slightly annoyed at the securely placed tracer. The tracers are meant to link together to initiate the bonding ceremony once the chosen target is acquired. At least all the formalities are out of the way and I’m sure no one else besides Zviad dares to challenge me for her. I find myself walking to one of the windows watching the landscape move underneath. It amazes me how a structure as big as this stays floating in the air. Artifacts are truly surprising. An all to familiar voice pulls me from my observation. “You think you can claim her?” with a voice laced with anger. Turning around Zviad is standing tall glaring at me arms crossed. I cant help but let out a chuckle. “I don’t think, I know.” It’s a pity we are restrained from using our powers against other competitors otherwise it would disqualify us from claiming a woman. But that
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 26: Terrors Edge
Jeong’s POV Searching more I finally found another set of footprints that lead into the water facing up stream. I decide to follow the stream looking for any signs of her exit. After a good twenty minutes I still have yet to find any indication she left the water. I’ve been checking my tracer on and off this whole time for her light. I know it’s not her, if she managed to take it off she wouldn’t put it back on. That’s when I noticed her light went off, Zviad must have found her tracer. Worry reaches me when I find myself in front of a huge cliff side that goes straight up the side of the mountain. Water is jutting out of the cliff like a waterfall into the stream. There must be an underground lake that feeds it. Turning around I begin running back the way I came. There must be something I missed. Where did you go? I stop to lean against a large rock catching my breath. Looking up at the sky I can’t help but wonder
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 27: Terrors Death
Jeong’s POV I’m not sure if I should be impressed or upset as I continue forward past the barrier. Looking at the distance there is no way she could have jumped between some of these rocks. She must have learned how to use her power, that’s the only logical explanation. No normal person or team of people can get past the amount of beasts that lay in wait from the other side. And, I don’t think anyone else would have realized she would and could cross the barrier. I am worried seeing the amount of blood showing. I even notice there was some blood on a few thorns. “Not good.” The thorns have a toxin, when it enters the blood stream it causes server drowsiness and an over dose can be fatal. Not finding her body is a good sign showing she hasn’t taken in to much of the toxin yet. That’s why this barrier works so well, it doesn’t matter human or beast it affects the same to both. I felt relief when I saw the edge of the
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 28: To Trust or Not
Rae’s POV I was about to give up and suddenly Jeong comes smashing into this creature out of no where! Is he after me too? What do I do? I don’t know if I can move. It hurts so much. I’m so tired. Oh no, that thing is getting up. “Hang in there. I’m here now.” with a panicked look on his face. Slipping in and out I see my platform shatter in front of my eyes. I need to recast it, but I can’t. Oh, it’s so cold. Am I dying? I vaguely see Jeong, is he hitting it? I’m so tempted to close my eyes. Sleep sounds so good. “Stay with me!” Jeong shouts. Huh? What? I try to focus on him and see blue lights coming out of his hands going around my leg. Why does he care so much? Does he really want me to live my life as a slave birthing children? Why can’t he just let me… There is a pin on his lapel, my eyes widen as I look at it. A gold filigree ring with a fl
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 29: Taken
Rae’s POV After cleaning all the blood it seems rather awkward now. I’m still not completely sure if I should trust him, but something is pulling me to. I’m in no position to run and barely understand my supposed power. What do I do? I don’t want to become some sex slave popping out babies. Jeong breaks the silence “I’m going to give it to you straight. You have two options.” holding out one finger “One, you can die.” I burst out “How is that even an option?!” is he crazy?! Annoyed “Let me finish!” as he shouts then looks serious as he holds up one finger “You can die either by killing yourself, go back and have those beasts kill you, or die by my hands. Option two.” holding two fingers “You agree to be bound to one of the two men who want to claim you. There are no other options available. If you want to leave this place that is.” Clenching my teeth and holding back te
The Unwanted Chance Chapter 30: Let Me Go
Jeong’s POV After destroying three drones I clench her tightly in my arms. Dodging trees and jumping over brush and fallen debris, the only thing I can think about is getting to the ship with her. But wait, what if she doesn’t want me? What if she chooses death? Considering she might choose death over me a drone caught me off guard knocking the wind out of me as I came in contact with the ground. When I finally was able to shake off the impact all I saw was her legs being hoisted up above the tree tops. Her scream filled me with panic as I rushed to reach her but got pummeled by another drone. They are keeping me from her, but why!? That’s against the rules! Staggering to stand, still taken back from the impact of the drone, anger begins boiling inside. How dare they get involved. Blinded by my moment of rage I didn’t hear him walk up. “How pathetic. And here I thought you would be more of a
