Hiding from the Alpha

I'll Always Catch You

Riley's POV💫

I let out a laugh as I run through the woods happily. I'm in human form and I relish in the wind whipping through my hair and clothes. Along with the thudding of my own feet on the ground, I hear a louder footsteps gaining behind me.

I let out a small yelp and I hear a deep chuckle from behind me, it sends a warm sensation through my body and I run faster

I'm not running to escape getting caught, I'm running to get caught.

I hear the loud footsteps gaining on me and I let out a soft giggle as I try to run faster. I risk a glance over my shoulder and I catch a quick glimpse of my mate. His strong jaw line, his shiny midnight-black hair, and his perfect green eyes make him look like a god. I quickly turn forward and continue my sprint but I'm unsuccessful.

A strong force knocks into my back and I begin falling forward. I squeal but we are quickly shifted. I hear a loud thud and I smash into my mates chest, his back against the ground of the woods. I feel the tingles begin to erupt on my skin, and sparks shoot wherever our skin touches. I hold back my sigh as I enjoy the feeling of his embrace.

I puff out my bottom lip dramatically and give a fake pout. He lets out an amused laugh that sends shivers down my spine. I don't let him see the effect he has on me and I continue my pouting.

We are suddenly flipped and my back is pressed against the ground as he hovers over me in a plank position. I have to put my hands under my bum to keep myself from running them over his muscular chest and arms.

I pout and let out a huff and he shakes his head with a laugh. He bends his arms and his muscles flex as he lowers himself down so his lips are next to my ear. I feel his warm breath fanning my neck and I almost swoon.

"There's no point in running." He whispers in his strong husky voice and I hum in delight.

"Oh really? Why not?" I whisper back I can see the effect it has on him.

"Because I will always catch you." He replies breathlessly, pulling back to look at me.

I look at him with my eyes filled with emotion. He leans down and rests his forehead against mine. I close my eyes and my breath becomes ragged.

"I have to go." He says suddenly, pulling away and standing up.

I look at him with wide eyes and stand up too. He gives me a longing look and turns away but I grab his wrist. Sparks shoot up my arm and he stops and turns back toward me.

"I'll find you soon baby." He says sadly and I furrow my eyebrows. Find me? I'm right here. "But it's time for you to wake up." He says suddenly and I give him a confused look.

I blink and suddenly everything is black. I open my eyes and jerk up breathlessly. I was dreaming.

It was only a dream.

I whimper slightly. It was only a dream. It felt so real, and I now realize that I really wish it was real. I wish we could joke around like that, I wish we could be in positions like that, I wish we could be like normal mates,

I wish I wasn't a white wolf.

I sigh and flop back on my bed. I know that I have to get up soon to go work at the pack hospital, but I don't want to get out of bed and I don't want to put on that horrid disguise.

I eventually roll out of bed and crawl to the bathroom for a shower. Then I quickly get ready so I'm not late. Doing the usual wig, color contacts, glasses, dress.

I rush out the door and pull my bag up on my shoulder as I rush through the crowd of people to get to the pack hospital. I make it just in time and plop into my seat with a sigh. I lean back and take a minute to relax.
