Got Your Tail (boyxboy) ✓

Chapter Four

Maybe it was just me, but I felt the wind prickle slightly as the door slammed. It was as though my nerves where off the hinges. I knew Castus was back.

The whole house was silent, his birthday would be celebrated at midnight and it was eleven.

Midnight.

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.

The time traveled slowly yet somehow all too fast.

What would happen?

I couldn't imagine.

He was expected to look among the girls and gasp and run over to one who would be declared Luna of pack. Little did they know all they would be getting was a Lunus.

I couldn't be there at the party.

I knew how it would play out. He would find me. Once his senses refresh he'd be overwhelmed by mine and seek me out. And then in front of everyone he would have me by the arm. And then my life would be in danger.

Not because I thought he'd kill me, while he very well may.

It was the rejection that was going to kill me. Slowly yes, but oh so painfully.

I couldn't believe this was happening to me.

I'd been such an avid reader of depressing rejection stories. Fascinated by the intense excruciating pain of heart break. Now I was to experience it first hand.

I know I'd be rejected, there was no doubt in that.

You see I hate Castus, and he hates me. But it's through hate that you learn the most from one another.

Through hate you see their weakness's, their strengths, all their faults and all their burdens. You can see the side of them that had you met under different circumstances you would never come to know.

Maybe that is why enemy's make such good ally's.

Now here was the thing.

I had a plan. Freida would help me.

However I couldn't just not attend the party.

This was your soon-to-be alpha's coming of age ceremony, the day he finally come to greet his mate.

My mother wouldn't just rip my hair out for it she'd full on rip me with her claws. And that wasn't another bruise I needed. Not when what was about to happen was going to cut me much deeper.

You see... I need to make sure he doesn't have a chance to reject me before I leave.

I need to escape, or my death will be inevitable.

Escaping itself isn't too hard. I can just walk out the door, well, maybe not. But if it really stands I can sneak out the window.

If they really pay attention they'll notice my scent running off but that hopefully shouldn't be a problem.

In case I sent Freida to pick up some Lateo spray. She should be back soon. But the minutes that fly by are killing me. Literally.

Still, I make it sound easy.

I have no where to go, no plans, no money.

I'd packed whatever I could find but most of my stuff was at home anyway.

My laptop was at home, most of my clothes. I didn't really have much else.

And the worst part was. If Freida didn't come back in time with the spray. He would scent me out. Even if I ran away. No train could take me fast enough to get away from a newly born alpha of blood.
