---POV--Jessica---

All I can do is run. I felt the earth ripping away under my heavy paws. Adrenaline pulsing threw my every vain. The pads of my paws becoming sore from everything. I've ran over 50 miles to get here. Without any stops whatsoever. I can make it 5 days without a meal. I have a ruff past. I couldn't help but slow down as my mind went to think.

I know there still after me. My friends and family I get why. But him? And the warriors and hunters? I don't get that part. He made it clear he hated me years ago. He's the only person that hurt me like that. I guess even at a young age my wolf knew it was him. She felt rejected from him. Neither of us understood why we felt like that. Until now. I finally reached my packs territory's end. I stopped.

'Go back! He wants us! He always has! You heard that message he sent! He will come after us,' my wolf was happy with excitement that finally her mate wanted her.

'Don't you remember what he did to us? How much he hurt us? How my sorrow and pain he put us though?' I asked her.

'Yes I remember,' she hissed at me. 'But he wants us now. And now we know he is ours. The past is the past. Leave it where it belongs.' She was right. She was always right. She never lead me wrong. We should just leave it where it belongs. But not this time. Im following myself this time and not her. I heard her whine at my thoughts. I made a promise to myself that day. I wasn't ever going to let him hurt me like that again.

I took one last glance at my home. I don't think I will ever be returning back here. I'm going to miss it. But I can't stay here with him. I can't reject him or stay in a pack with him. I can't be a Luna. This pack needs a better a better Luna then I can ever be. I'm just a burden to the pack. I took one last glance around my home. I know that they would have stopped for a break by now. So I would have time for a squirrel or rabbit before I had to leave again.

Using my senses I found a nice fat squirrel sitting at the bottom of a nearby berry bush eating the berries. I walked downwind of the animal so it could not smell me. With one swift jump I cracked its neck. As soon as I knew it was dead I dug into the still warm prey. I even ate some berries with it. I felt quiet proud of my large prey. Wanting to slow it off to Mercedes or Brayden or my brothers. But then I remembered. I'm all on my own from now own. The thought hurt a little. But I can deal with it. It will take time but it will go away.

Then I heard it. A set of paws running cross the forest. Breaking branches and stomping on leaves. I whipped around to see the last wolf I ever wanted to see. The midnight fur came at me in a flash. I jumped to my paws. Still leaving a little squirrel left on the ground. I growled in warning for him to stay back. Then I did the only thing left to do. I ran out of the boarders. But with one swift look behind me. At my home, well old home now. Before i knew it. I was gone. The midnight wolf stopped. Still trying to get into my head. To mind link me. I finally let him in and sent one message before I shut him out.

'You had over 10 years to make everything better Hunter. 10 fucking years full of pain and misery! 10 years full of torment and heartbreak. You never took your chances to fix it. You hurt me. More then anybody ever has. Goodbye,' I said to him threw our mind link as I went off. Just two days and I would be free. Free from everything in my life. But most of all free from my horrible, heartless, mate. Who would never coming looking for me. I'm not his. I was never meant to be. He proved that years ago. When he hurt me.

'We need to go back! It's not safe out here! Our mate needs us,' my wolf whinnied. But I didn't care. I was free. I'm never going back. I have the world to explore. To hide. And to be forgotten in. Hunter had no chance of ever getting me back. I'm going to leave my past and mate behind me. And focus on what's ahead of me. This is my new life now. As a runaway. From the only person that could ever hurt and protect me. My mate. And the alpha of the River Clan Pack.

A part of me wanting to go back and just forgive him, another willing me to keep going until I die, another hoping they come, many different parts hoping many different things. A part of me wishing I could leave forever. But I know somebody would come.

I'm a special wolf. I'm different. And with that difference is something a pack does not ever want to lose. But they just lost it. It the only reason the pack kept me I believe. All because of him I was gone and hurt again. All because of their amazing Alpha. Who broke an 6 year olds heart many years ago. Never again will I let him cause me that pain. Never. Ever. Again. Before I knew it a dark color covered the sky. With a few bold stars standing out. I found a small cave to sleep in. Just for tonight. Then in two days time I will go to see if Alexander, the Alpha of the Black Sky Pack, will take me in. He knows my pain. But he is a really sensitive man about an leaving your mate. For their Luna rejected him before finally coming back and accepting him as her mate. But I have always been like a daughter to him ever since I was little. I just hope he of all people will understand. I could tell my wolf was starting to hate me right now. But I could care less. For once, I felt completely free. Like nothing could EVER hurt me. Nobody but him. No matter where I went I know he would always be in my thoughts as usual. I just wished my life could be any bit normal. Then maybe just maybe, we could be together. And he wouldn't have hurt me. The old me is dead. The soft caring loins hearted one. All because of my carefree heartless alpha mate. May he die in the fire flames of hell for all I care.

I curled in a small ball in the cave. Keeping myself warm. 'If you hadn't ran he would be keeping us warm,' my wolf hissed. For a second I regretted my choice of running. But I knew it was the best for my pack and I. I don't want the heartbreak all over again.

I starred at the stars as I slowly slipped into another night of sleep. But for once it wasn't dreamless.

It was about him.

My mate.

Hunter.
