You Will Want Me

Chapter Twenty-One - I Will Return...

Chapter Twenty-One

I stared at the paper for a moment longer, What do we do now? I asked my wolf, I heard her whimper at the thought of leaving Max,

But we can’t leave Autumn, I don’t want to leave my mate. I felt her clawing at my skin trying to reach Max. I tried using our mate mind link but he had completely blocked me out. What was I going to do now? My mate was unreachable, my wolf was going into with-drawl and if I contacted anyone else in the pack the inside source would find out and everyone I loved and cared about would die.

A silent tear fell down my cheek, there was only one thing I could do and that was to do everything she had told me and leave. My wolf started howling and my heart felt like it was going to break not only would I have to leave my family and my friends, I would also have to leave Max, my soul mate, my other half.

But I was doing it to protect them and once I had a firm plan and a way to come back and save them all I would. I just needed to get out without people seeing me. I somehow knew that the Black Cloaked Women would have made that easy for me… Well I hope she had, I don’t know what I will do if I see Max.

Grabbing a black duffel bag from my wardrobe I stuffed as many clothes as I could into it and zipped it up. I made sure to put my grandmas ring and grabbed a large handful of notes. I also carefully placed a photo of Max and me which was taken a couple of days ago by a lake not far from here. A single tear drop fall onto the photo and I let out a little sob. What was I going to do without him?

Closing my eyes tight I place the photo in my back pocket and strode out the door. I looked up and down the hallway making sure I was alone. I was surprise that no one was around, then I saw posters scattered all along the wall in Max’s hand writing. I sob again at what was written,

I need everyone’s help! I need everyone to look for my mate, someone has kidnapped her and I will do anything to get her back!

I let out a sigh and turned around, I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw Luke at the other end of the corridor. Turning on my heels I sprinted as fast and as far away from him as I could. I didn’t want to take any chances that someone I loved could get hurt. How would I live with myself?

I looked over my shoulder and saw that Luke was still running behind me and I knew that it wasn’t safe for him to follow me, is wasn’t safe for him to even talk with me while I was still on the grounds.

I sprinted as hard as I could and when I realised he was gaining on me I did the one thing I needed to do, I shifted. I knew because he was a rouge in our land he wasn’t allowed to shift and I used that to my advantage. I clamped the duffel bag in my mouth careful not to break anything in my bag. Now I was glad I had put my grandma’s ring in my bag and not on my finger.

I sprinted as fast as I could and I saw him fading in the back ground. Looking down for a moment I watched my silver paws fly over the grass. I felt the wind winding and twirling down my silver back and I felt free. I almost forgot about missing Max’s, key word there is almost.

I felt the sadness in my wolf and I wanted to help her so badly, but I knew the best way to make sure that Max was safe was to leave him and get him out of danger.

I stopped suddenly finally realising where I was. I looked around and shifted into human form. That was a thing that for some reason my pack had, we had to leave the territory as a human, I think it was so rouge’s always had a moment’s weakness when they were running.

I tried reaching out for Max one more time and I was glad to feel his defences down,

“Max, I have to leave for a while…” I didn’t even get to finish before he interrupted,

“AUTUMN THANK GOD YOU’RE OKAY! WHERE ARE YOU? I WILL COME AND GET YOU RIGHT NOW!” Even through the mind link I felt how relieved he was and it broke my heart to have to leave him,

“Max, I don’t have much time I need you to listen to me!”  I yelled at him and I immediately felt him tense and his wolf started to growl,

“Autumn what’s going on?”  He sounded like he didn’t know whether to celebrate that I was safe or get angry because he didn’t know what was going on or cry because I still wasn’t in his arms.

“Max, I am going to be going away for a little bit and I need you to be strong. I need you to know I love you! Please have faith that I will come back and everything will be okay again…” I could have told Max what was going on but the truth was I didn’t know who I could trust anymore and before Max even got to me someone could have told the Black Coated Women and then they could have hurt all the people I love. No, I was sticking to my plan, and I was telling Max the truth I would go back to him soon, I don’t think I would be able to stay away for long.

“Autumn what are you talking about? Autumn please, please tell me what’s going on!” I felt my heart break with every word he said, he sounded so broken and sad, “Please Autumn don’t leave me…” And with those words I promised that no matter what happened I would find my way back to Max.

“Max please remember I love you and I will be back very, very, very soon I just can’t risk you getting hurt. You are my everything Max…”  Max started to yell at my begging me not to go but I had to do this for him, for us. So with that thought in my mind I stepped over the territory line breaking the connection with my pack and my mind link with Max.
