Rae's POV

     She had been traveling by foot, for days. She knew that was the only way she could safely get away from what laid behind her. If she were to take any vehicle she would risk having the plates or VIN ran. She learned at an early age she could even run in her wolf form. Rae would pack her belongings in a bag and run with it in her mouth. She would just strip and pack it before grabbing it up and running.

     Most of Rae's travels were through lakes and rivers so her scent couldn't be detected. She was not going to be taken back and forced into a marriage that was null of love. She had a picture of marriage in her mind, in her heart and what they were wanting to force on her was not what she saw.

     I know when I get to the coast I'll be able to start new, no one will know who I am and I'll blend in with everyone else.  I think I'll see what's to this city, I've never been here before but it's small and smaller cities are better than the bigger ones. Bigger ones have a bigger chance of drawing attention and that is not what I need.  Looking at the sign she read it and it said "Gautier". Go into the woods near the city she shifted back to her human self and put on her clothes and placed her backpack on her shoulder. Well now is a good as time as any for me to head in and find what I can.

    Michael was driving in the opposite direction that Rae was walking and she could feel the pull as he passed by. She stopped in her tracks and turned. She looked in the direction and watched after his truck until she noticed the break lights come on the truck. Michael felt the pull also and was trying to figure where it was coming from. He had finally realized she was walking down the road in the opposite direction and turned around. Not knowing what to do, she simply stood there. Michael pulled up in front of her and put the window down.

     I don't want any trouble, I came here to get away from what I was supposed to be forced to do. Leave me alone and I promise I won't cause any trouble I'll eve leave. Just let me go ok. Rae looked at him, and watched every move he made, he wasn't doing anything, he just looked at her, his eyes flashed a crystal blue and she felt her cheeks flush a burning read. W..What are you planning on doing with me?  Rae watched him as he got out of the truck and came around to her side and opened the door, "Come on, get in, you don't know this place and there is no need in you trying to find your way around. I won't bite, well I'm not gonna lie, I will bite but not without your permission. You seem hungry, let's get you something to eat first and foremost."

     Rae looked back at Michael and then climbed into the truck, something in her said to trust him but she wasn't sure why.
