Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Three
I turned around, trying to trace back the route to the pack house, but we had gone so deep into the woods I would never make it. Of course he caught up with me. I couldn’t fight free of his hold.
“Thane let me go.” I begged just as I did that dreadful night. But once again he wasn’t listening; his hold on me was unbreakable. I struggled, harder than ever before, but that didn’t deter him; he seem to know every of my moves even before I made them. I kicked him in the groin, and that only pissed him off. He tossed me into the air like I weighed nothing, and my back slammed against the hard trunk of the tree. I dropped to the ground, a wave of pain washed through me. I rose slowly to my feet, but he was no longer in sight.
“Thane!” I called out, but no one answered.
I called out his name over and over, trying to find him, but all I succeeded in doing was getting myself lost. I had never come this far on my own; my back hurt, and there would be more bruises on my body, but that I didn’t care about. What I did care about was the fact that Thane was out there alone; he wasn’t in his right senses. What if something happened to him?
A twig snapped, and that cut me out of my trail of thoughts. I stood alert.
“Is just me” Axel’s familiar voice announced, and I let out a breath of relief.
“He’s gone Axel; we have to find him; we have to…”
“We would only after I get you back to the pack house,” Axel said, handing me the robe he had come along with, I put it on with little difficulty.
“You are hurt” he noted, but again my well being wasn’t what we should be worrying about
now.
“How did you know I was here?”
“I sensed Thane was disturbed; I guess he was trying to pass me some kind of signal; he knew what was coming.
What exactly happened?” he asks.
“We decided to take a run in the woods and then… I don’t know… he just changed all of a sudden,” I said, leaving some key details out of my little narration. I didn’t tell him how violent Thane had been, neither did I tell him about our little game that seemed to had begun it all.
“As of now he is alive and well; he will be back, Riley; you don’t have to worry, but you would need a healer” Axel said, picking me up.
“What are you doing?”
“I can’t let you walk, not in this state”

It had been two days now.
Anytime I asked Axel about Thane, he gave the same response.
“Thane will be back when he is ready.”
