This place smells. So bad. It's also really dark down here. I should probably tell you where I am aye. Well I'm in a dungeon. But not just any dungeon, Its the dungeon of the Red River pack. But I know what you are thinking "oh not the red river pack". This pack is not just any normal pack they are the royal werewolf pack as well. And I'm one of the lucky few to be stuck  in their dungeon, well along with other criminals. oh well.

Your probably wondering why I'm in here though. Well long story short I got caught, By boarder guards. And know you are probably wondering why I got caught. Well I'm what they call 'The Runner'. I run through pack land to find food and all that because I'm a rouge. My father challenged our alpha and lost so he killed the rest of my family except for me. Anyways I should tell you the full story of how I got the name and all.

Well it all started long ago, three years to be exact...

I stared wide eyed at the bloodied Alpha Cain in front of me as he snapped my mother's neck. He turned to me throwing my mother towards my father's dead body. "Since I am such a nice alpha, I'm going to let you run but the catch is you have make it out of my pack lands in the matter of a minute. But if you can't, well then you can go join your mother and father." I just stood there staring at him with tears in my eyes. "Understood?" I nodded so hard my neck started to hurt. "Okay then, well your minutes starts now." I stood, rooted to the spot for few seconds. Until I took off towards the closest pack line, I ran as fast I could which is pretty fast.

The alpha obviously hasn't seen me run. I could feel the pack line getting closer as I ran. I was just about there when I tripped on a tree root. Shit shit shit. I could hear Alpha Cain getting closer to me. I tried to get up but my leg hurt to much. Okay, what to do? oh I know I will roll over the line. I pushed my body that little bit further until I was over. "Yes" I breathed a bit to excitedly. "You are a fast pup" He sneered at me. "But anyhow, back to business. I Alpha Cain now banish you, Mia Swanson. You are now deemed as a rouge." and with that he walked away. I sat there for a few minutes thinking of where I was going to go.

By the time I decided it was time get a move on my leg had stopped hurting. I started the walk away from my pack lands and into the unknown world. After a few days of walking I came across some pack lands. They didn't think I was a threat so they let me enter. After a week or two I decided to move on, but as I was leaving the B and B I realized I had no money, so I did what I knew best. I ran. As I started to run the warriors got notified and chased me. We ran for miles after the pack line. I eventually lost them but I didn't stop, I kept running for days until I collapsed.

That was the start of it all. I would enter pack lands stay for no longer than a month. Within that time period I would steal food, clothes and something to remind of the places I have been. Then when I feel like it's time to leave, I leave well run anyway. And I would just wonder in unclaimed pack areas. No one had ever caught me or my scent because A) I was way to fast for them and B)I new a secret family recipe for a spray to mask a scent and it lasted for about three years. And that's how I got the name The Runner.

That's what is was like for three years anyway. That was until today. I have been here in the Red River pack lands for about two weeks and it's the most breath taking place I have ever seen. But then I got thinking this is a Royal pack so it is probably not the best idea to stay to long.  So I got everything packed up and ready to go I just needed to put the spray on, I sprayed but only once which was my mistake. I left the empty house and started to head into town to steal some bread. I quickly took it from the market stall and started to run. There pack line was about a mile or two deep in the forest.

As I got to the very edge of the forest I shifted into my wolf. I call her Charlotte, she is quite small but i don't mind. She has the most softest coat in my opinion and the color is a pitch black color with white socks on all her paws. As we ran she sensed something "warriors are chasing us"  she told me. "shit"  We pick up speed. Just as we were about to cross the line I got tackled to the ground by a massive wolf. "Great. Just great."  The warriors formed circle around me as the wolf got up and off me. It walked behind a tree and shifted back into the most hottest man I have ever seen. He has piercing blue eyes and shortish brown hair. "wow" Charlotte whispered"shut up you" "what I'm just stating the truth"  I inwardly role my eyes at her.

I had to look away from his eyes to stop myself from drooling. "Shift" his voice held power. All the warriors had turned around and even him. Once I shifted I quickly put on some undergarments, skinny jeans, crop top, sweater and my converse. Once I laced them up and put my bag back on my back he turned around. I didn't dear look at his face he radiated power. "Who are you? And why were you running?" I shook my head as in to say no. "Very well. I will let you answer to the King and Queen then. You will be placed in a cell until further notice." And with that I got lifted by my arms by the warriors. I started to squirm but they kept there hold. I got stared at the whole walk there.  Once we passed the gates I got taken to the cells in the dungeon. And that's where I am now.

So I have been sitting in this cells for a day now and I'm so hungry. The loaf of bread I stole is in my bag and I don't have it. I could hear footsteps coming towards my cell and a warrior stood behind my cell door. "Here is some food for you" He slides this tray in with a pile of glupe on it. "And you have a hearing with Alpha King Dominic and Luna Queen Lillian tomorrow." And with that he walks away. I stare at the pile of glupe with distaste for two reasons. Reason one: This thing in front of me looks absolutely disgusting. And reason two is I have a hearing with the Alpha King and Luna Queen tomorrow.
