Make Me Sane

Chapter 17

No. No! I ignored their calls as I ran away from that room. No, no, no.

I felt.... betrayed. My own mates murdered five young promising warriors from my pack. My pack. The pack that helped raise me and gave me all their love.

How-just exactly how can I face their parents? Those parents who hoped for revenge to avenge their children. How, how?

'M, stop. I'm sure they have a re-'

'Shut up, Eli!' Eli went silent as ordered so.

'They...they killed them El. They murdered five innocent teenagers, robbing them the future they could've had. Those five were kids, children, minors. They haven't even reached the age to when they start to drink, hang out and have fun with. Kids, El, kids!'

I need to calm my head. I ran towards my room, changed clothes then ran towards the forest.

'Take over. I don't have the mood to argue right now so just...please, please just do what I want right now.'

Eli's Pov

'M.' It was no use. Mika isolated himself again in the back of my head. I guess he really needs time and space right now.

I glanced up to the sky and prayed to God above to please guide Mika right now. He needs this, proper guidance on how to handle this kind of situation without endangering our life.

I sighed, taking my clothes off then forcing my body to take the shape of a wolf. Its been a while since I took a run. I even forgot my nature by focusing too much on my mates.

I'll take this time off to connect with nature once again then once Mika cools off, maybe we can talk things out.

But I feel really weird right now. My heat cycle is drawing really near if I feel this uncomfortable.

I shook off the feeling and just ran freely around the forest. Chasing butterflies and rabbits. I must have wandered too far off the street because I now find myself lost.

'Let's go back. I don't feel safe here.'

'Have you finally cooled down?' He sneers and then fades away not before telling me to go back as soon as I'm done with my run.

'Yeah. Just let me have this moment im nature alone. Let's take the time to talk later, yeah?' There was no response so I guess he just ignored me.

Shrugging it off, I look around to observe if I left any footprints that I could follow back, closer to the street.

Unfortunately though, my footprints was scattered everywhere so I really couldn't tell where I came from. Shit, this wasn't supposed to happen. Now I need to waste time finding the right direction.

My ears perked up when the rustling of some leaves can be heard. Someone was coming.

I retreated as slowly as possible, already creating plans of escape. If this was an animal then it might be fine but this doesn't smell like an animal. More like a fresh mint perfume. A human.

'Eli?' Mika was starting to panic. This is getting bad.

'M, I need you calm down and let me think for a minute.' Fortunately, he was quick to listen at these type of situation.

I backed up against a big tree that covered my body fully. Observing with only my other four senses was easier in wolf form.

I could clearly hear their footsteps as I focused intently. There were two heartbeats that can be heard beating calmly. Two humans.
