Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thats all she could hear as the blood was pumping to her ears heart bursting from her chest. The sound of twigs snapping and leaves crunching under her feet and she carried herself away-running. The distant snarls and screams of her loved ones being attacked. "Hurry up Ari! This way!" Her brother urged her, not looking back. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. It continued. Her foot getting caught on a root, she falls to the ground. Her brother still running she gets up and runs to catch up, but its dark and unknown to her she heads in a completely different direction. She came to a clearing ducking down in the tall grass as much as she could, listening to the song the crickets sang and the pounding in her chest, deep breaths and then..... Silence. Aria Ember Faye was 7 when she first lost her family, when she went into hiding and became a rouge. She lost everything. Now she's 23 and still trying to figure out how to move on and cope with things that happened to her and her loved ones that night. How will she be able to cope? And when she meets her destined mate-Will she accept him? Will he accept her? or will she run in fear of what may happen.
