Life After the Storm

I wake up somehow uninjured. I coughed up the water, not even a bruise. I get up to collect myself from what just happened. I'm free from the Wicked Pack. I don't have to worry about the Alpha any longer. I look on my shoulder to see if his mark is really gone, and it is I can't believe that I died and then still survived. This is my 2nd chance at life and I will not disappoint my brother. I know the only reason that I survived that fall was because of him he healed me. My brother always believed in me more than I believed in myself, even though we liked to mess with each other a lot and sometimes even make each other miserable. We are always there for each other when one of us needs one another, no matter what. Now that I am free, I need to figure out what to do. I never left home before, I need to start to run. I don't want to be seen by any pack members.

I have been running for hours. I have not found another town yet to call home there was more wilderness than towns in Alaska. I want to leave Alaska all together, but I don't have any money and I can not risk the Alpha picking up my scent. He will know I'm alive. Even though his mark was gone, unfortunately, he is still my mate. I don't need a mate to be happy, I will be just fine. I hear crying, which is odd. I'm pretty deep in the woods. I follow the noise I see a child I'm not sure if it's a boy or girl I start to approach the child when I see a bear coming in full force I shift into my wolf and run I jump over the child and go straight towards the bear I aim for its throat trying to get it to run away. I can feel the bear's long claws digging into my side. I'm trying to not kill the bear. I hate killing animals. I stand in front of the child and I let out a defense growl. Shockingly, the bear then turned around and left us.

Run over to the child “are you OK, are you hurt, where is your pack?”

He looks at me with teary eyes and says, “I am lost, I can't find my way home.”

“What is the name of your pack, maybe I can help you?”

“My daddy is the Alpha, it's the Starlight Moon pack.”

“Well ok let's try to figure out which direction to walk in which way did you come from.”

"I don't know what direction I walked I'm sorry."
