Alexa’s POV... I went as far as I could from Logan’s territory, scaling through the woods. I wore a cloak that covered my head completely, those types of coverings that mainly were the apparel of priests and holy persons. The cloak disguised me well; it would take a magician to recognize me by merely looking at me. “Before anyone would notice my disappearance, I would be long gone by then,” I said to myself while hitting my horse so it could move faster. The mount didn’t disappoint, hopping faster like a kangaroo being chased by a lion. We got to a shallow river where we had to take a break; I jumped down from the horse’s back. “Good boy,” I said, patting his back. He has done a pretty good job getting me this far, though I don’t think it is as far as I want to be from Logan and his pack. I pulled the horse over so

Author’s POV... **** WARNING: This scene contains words describing explicit sexual misconduct. Read at your own risk. **** Selena was in her room waiting anxiously for news of Alexa’s whereabouts. She walked restlessly back and forth, with different thoughts popping into her head. “What if something had happened to Alexa, I would not be able to live with myself, “Selena thought while walking uncomfortably around the room. “This is all my fault. I should have advised her differently. What have I done?” Selena muttered to herself once again, lost in her thoughts. A loud knock on the door gave her a reality check, “Who is there?” Selena said after exhaling sharply. She had hoped it would be Alexa, and she would just walk right through the door. The door opened, but it was Kara who walked in. “W-what are you doing here?” Selena stammered, scared to her bones. Her voice cracked as her fears were notable. “No, that is not the question. The question is, what are YOU doing here?” Kar

Alexa’s POV... I was cold and hungry after spending the previous night in a cave. The life of a lone wolf was not as easy as I expected. I was starving and needed to get something to eat else I might not see the sunset the next day. I crawled out of my cave, jumping down carefully to avoid injuring myself, I walked past the rocks as I made it to even ground, and I looked around, trying to find out the source of my next meal. “Umm… yea, how hard can this be? It’s just hunting, after all,” I said as I walked slowly into the woods. I saw a deer nearby; I smiled as I stalked the poor creature. The more I got closer to the animal, the more confident I was that I would make the kill. 7 yards away from the deer, I had already started imagining what the meat would taste like.  “If only I could get a little bit closer,” I said, re

Alexa's POV... I woke up still feeling pains below my abdomen. It is still a miracle how I survived. I thought I would die; the only thing I could remember was running from this huge man in the woods, only for me to be stabbed by him. I remember falling to the ground and calling for my dead mother to save me, I looked up at the man as he raised his sword in an attempt to chop off my head, and I blacked out. When I woke up in this room, I had no idea how Logan found me and brought me here. I guess miracles do happen sometimes. I tried to get to my feet once more, but I could not. Even though the pains had subsided, it was still challenging for me to move. I really wanted to be able to get up so I could run away again. This time, I would be more careful in the woods.  "It is much better than staying here," I said inaudibly to myself, thinking of my preferred escape route. I would rather take my chances out in the woods again than

Read at your own risk. **** Immediately Selena walked past the hallway where Simon could no longer see her; she burst out in tears as she made her way to the fields once again. She already knew what was waiting for her in the field, she bowed her head as she walked forward, hoping she would not be spotted, but that was an optimistic thought, to say the least, as the men who were used to raping her had been waiting for her arrival for a long while.  “Hey… look who it is, “one of the men said loudly, pointing to Selena.  “Our home girl is back,” the second man said with so much excitement he stood up and approached her.  “You know I would be going first today. I didn’t get to enjoy the bitch cus she was alread
