I never thought this day would come. When I left the pack and decided to go rogue five years ago I never considered the possibility that they would come for me, that they would force me back.
I should have stayed where I was, living across the ocean where no one knew or recognized who I was. There I have no pack, no family or friends. I was alone but I was happy, at peace.
Why did I bother? Why did I even think of coming back? I was doing fine on my own, more than fine to be honest. I answer to no one but myself. I was free.
Loyalty. It's what forced me to come. The pure sense of attachment and devotion is what forced me to risk my newfound happiness and freedom.
"How did you know I was here?" I asked Lorcan Burnell, a member of my old pack Moonscape.
"We stationed guards on the premises. And we've been tracking all flights in and out of the country just in case your name shows up." He explained like having access to flight itineraries and passenger manifests were a common thing. I guess being the most powerful pack on this side of the world has its perks and privileges.
"What do you want with me?" I asked backing away slowly, making sure I have all of them in my line of sight. I don't like surprises and there were five of them ready to pounce on me.
Forget the fact that Lorcan is the current beta of Moonscape everyone on his entourage are high ranking warrior wolves. I could take down one or two maybe three but that would be pushing me to my limits. But I have no chance of winning or escape if all five come to me at once.
Still, I know my abilities and they don't. That gives me an edge over them. I know what they're capable of. I've seen them train. I know their strengths and weaknesses. And if my memory serves me right there's no one in the pack who could match me in speed. I could outrun them all. They're all seasoned fighters. To stay and fight would a big mistake. But if I run I could be halfway across state lines before they could track me down. I just have to bid my time.
"We're not here to hurt you Ruari." He said gently, patiently, like I would believe that fucking lie! They all hated my guts and wanted me dead. No one from my old pack made a secret of that.
I took a few calming breaths, running a simulation of my escape route in my head. I can't let my guard down especially not around them. Good thing I had the forethought to procure a map of the vicinity before actually coming out here.
Lorcan must have sensed my intention to bolt because he took a step forward as I took another one back. He kept on mimicking my movements, maintaining the same distance we had from the moment they cornered me.
I noticed the warrior wolves move to some unvoiced command. They were communicating through the pack link and since I am no longer a member of the pack I cannot tap into the conversation. I shivered when I felt another presence not far behind me.
Shit six! I'm surrounded. Fuck trying to bid for more time. I have to make my move now if I want to escape!
"I didn't take anything when I left."
Money, clothes, documents, everything that connected me to Moonscape Pack was left behind. All I had when I walked out the door of the pack house were the clothes on my back. I didn't want them to accuse me of stealing or some other bullshit they could come up with. I didn't want to give them any ammunition to use against me in case they ask another pack for help in tracking me down.
"Unless you're here to kill me, I don't know of another reason why you'd come looking for me."
Lorcan seemed unfazed and casually moved closer as I took another cautious step back.
