Just My Luck (boyxboy)

Ch26. Sam/Emmett

Sam's POV

I hugged Baxter tightly, scared out of my mind as bullets hit the other side of the wall. "What's going on?" I asked him, confused still from everything that was happening. I didn't understand. I just couldn't register what was going on from the haze I was still in from the accident and passing out.

"Hunters," he told me and my eyes widened. "I don't know why they're here but they shouldn't be."

I pushed him back a little realizing what I had done. This was all my fault. I knew what they wanted. "Go," I told him, the guilt took over quickly. "They want me, not you. I'm so sorry," I told him truthfully, feeling the tears run down my face. They followed me here. I was so careless to think they wouldn't still be looking for me.

"What? I'm not leaving you," he said, almost angry as he grabbed me but I pushed him away again.

"No, it's me they want. I- I should have told you before. I don't know why but-,"

"Over here!" Someone yelled behind the wall as I looked that way in panic.

Baxter grabbed my face between his hands, making me look into his eyes. "I need you to run Sam, as fast as you can while I distract them. Don't stop. Don't look behind you. You go as fast as you can until you get back into the city. Find Emmett," he said as I just looked at him in shock.

"Wh- what? No. Wait Baxter you can't-,"

Suddenly he cut off my words as he pressed his lips against mine hard. I was shocked but I could also feel this kiss wasn't meant to be mine either.

It wasn't filled with fireworks or world stopping but I couldn't help wishing it was Emmett's lips. Letting my mind think I was kissing him for the last time as I was pushed back a step letting him deepen the kiss more as his tongue slid into my mouth. The tears ran down my cheeks.

Emmett. I couldn't help feeling like I wasn't going to see him again as I imagined this was my last kiss to him. The last time I would feel anyone's lips against mine and feel the warmth of a tongue I desperately wished was Emmett's.

Baxter pulled away leaving us both panting for air as he laid his forehead against mine.

"Find Emmett. He will take care of you Sam, I swear it. Tell that bastard to call my brother and have him get Steven and Lexi to a safe place. Give that kiss to Steven for me when you see him," he said and pulled away from me.

"No! Stop!" I yelled, grabbing his arm in a panic. "You can't-,"

"Run Sam, as fast as you can, and don't look back no matter what you hear. Don't look back," he said and shifted out of my hands into his huge wolf before I could stop him.

"No... Baxter no!" I cried out but he jumped out from behind the wall with a great and thunderous howl to get all their attention and charged them head-on with a fearsome growl.

Emmett POV

"Alpha!" Steph yelled running into the meeting hall making us all jump in surprise. "Alpha, you need to come and see this at once," she said with panic in her voice.

I quickly got up and hurried out of the door with the other leaders in my pack behind me. The large TV was on in the waiting room and everyone stood from their seat to watch as the reporter talked.

"... of the gruesome scene that unfolded behind me, just moments ago. It was reposted that a wolf shifter went on a rampage in this small quick strip of businesses, flipping over this SUV behind me. Hunters were quick to the scene but in the mists of gunfire and panic, we've counted so far 5 civilians have been reported dead. These four adults and one child have yet to be identified and a larger number have been taken into the hospital for injuries. Wait, hold on one moment..." the news lady said on the tv and looked away from the camera to listen in her earpiece.
