I woke up suddenly. It was dark in the room and I could her soft snores coming from the bed close to me.
Sable didn't seem like the type of girl who would snore. Maybe it's just because she's tired, I probably would never find out.
I tossed and turned, trying to go back into the blank slumber I was in before. It felt like hours of trying to shut my mind down and actually close my eyes.
Eventually I gave up.
I pulled back the blankets and placed my feet firmly on the floor. Trying to be as quiet as possible. I tip toed past the bed and in the direction I thought the door was.
Opening it quietly, I made my way down to the kitchen. I found it empty, just how I wanted it to be.
I wondered when Finn would come back from the hospital. Probably soon, by the looks of the clock on the oven. I flicked a light on, it sure was bright.
I grabbed the papers from earlier, the ones that depicted out escape, and sat them in front of me.
Looking at them now, I'm not sure how much of it I like. Bring Sable along is going to be hard. Much harder than if I ran away by myself.
I could get out of here now, grab my things and go. Move on in a westerly direction and follow a scent back to the pack.
Back to my mates.
God, I didn't realise I missed them so much. It hurt to think about our separation. The miles between us.
Who even knows where they are? What they are doing? They better not being doing anyone!
No, of course they wouldn't be doing anyone.
No, I need to focus on this escape.
Poor, sweet Sable. She was oh so broken. I couldn't leave her here to get caught. To get Finn or Dylan caught.
I need to get us both out of here and back to Blue Sky ground. We'll be safe there. She'll be safe there.
And maybe she can get her happy ending.
Everyone deserves a happy ending.
I look down at the paper in front of me. A few scribbles here and there, depicting how we are going to get away from this.
Seriously, I was dreaming when I drew thing.
We're going to have to run. Run until we are as far away from here as we possibly can be. Get back to Kiran and Josh, and my whole pack. Even fucking Titan and his piece of shit mate.
"What are you doing?" I nearly shat my self and almost fell off the chair as Sable spoke quietly from behind me.
"You almost killed me!" I exclaimed in a loud voice.
"Keep it down, we don't want to wake Dylan." Sable said quietly. A calm look in her eyes.
Almost unbelievable how crazy she went earlier. Almost.
"Did I wake you?" I asked her, quieter this time.
"No, I don't sleep well." She said monotonous and moved to the fridge. She pulled out the milk and rummaged though the cupboards until she found a glass. "Want any?" She asked me as I watched her move around so casually.
"No, I'm right." I responded, curiosity spiked within me. I need to get to know this girl better.
She moved to the table with her glass of milk and sat down. "How are we going to get away?"
"We shall leave tomorrow, just before the sun sets. We'll head west, towards my pack Blue Sky. There we will be safe." I told her with confidence.
"Are you sure we'll be safe there?" She asked, her voice void of all confidence.
"I'm the alphas daughter. Of course we'll be safe within my pack." I reassured her.
"Okay. Faleminderit." She said with a smile.
"I'm going to assume that means thank you?" I spoke with a grin.
She smiled at me. "I am very grateful for everything you have and are doing for me."
"It's time I did something for someone other than me. It keeps me good." I looked back down at the plans. "Do you know what we're going to be doing here?"
After a while of studying the plans and coming up with some new ones. Finn burst through the door.
He saw the light on in the kitchen and came running in. "They know you're missing! They're going to start looking for you!"
"Shit. We need to get ready to go!" I jumped up and ran up the stairs. Before I reached the top I heard Finn ask Sable how her leg was.
I had totally forgotten! She seemed perfectly fine.
When I reached the room, I found her bandage on the bed and our clothes in a neat pile on the dresser.
I quickly changed into mine and raced back down to Sable with her clothes in hand. She was packing supplies into a bag Finn had supplied us with.
"Your leg?" I asked, placing her clothes next to her.
"It's fine." She said and she grabbed her clothes and walked into the downstairs bathroom.
"How?" I asked Finn.
"Sorcery is the only answer." He responded with a straight face.
I just rolled my eyes. "She must still have her werewolf healing powers."
"Probably," he answered. "I need to go wake Dylan up. He's going to want to say goodbye."
I nodded and looked inside the bag. A few apples, sandwiches we made earlier. A tin that held fruit cake and biscuits. The other bag was already packed with water.
I decided to even the bags out by putting half the water and food in both. That way we could run without one being slower than the other.
I grabbed a packet of matches from the draw and put it in one of the bags.
Zipping them up, I threw one on my back and the other at Sable as she emerged from around the corner.
"We need to get going." I told her, already heading to the side door.
"Aren't you going to say goodbye?" Dylan said as he walked down the stairs, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
"I didn't want to wake you." I said, looking at Sable. Urging her to help me to get us out the door before people start knocking on it.
"You were going to leave without saying goodbye!" Dylan accused, looking hurt.
"She was, but I wasn't." Sable said and rushed to Dylan. Pulling him into a big hug. "Thank you for everything."
"Come back any time." He said, a waver in his voice.
I walked over and hugged his as Sable pulled away. "Thank you. I'll never forget your kindness." I whispered in his ear. "I will repay you."
"You must go." He said back.
We went to the door. "Goodbye, I will repay you. You will not be forgotten." They turned the lights off, we opened the door and left. Heading west, towards the trees and towards my mates.
-well hey there I've been gone too long and I've been stupid about it. This is probably bad but ok deal with it love you all for sticking with this shit book xxx
