Trapped by Seven Mafia Wolves novel Chapter 105

Running In The Dark

Aurora’s POV

My legs won’t stop moving.

I don’t even know where I’m going.

Cold air slaps my face as I run away from the house away from Luka’s furious yelling, away from those wild eyes that haunt me like nightmares.

Tears blur my vision, but I don’t slow down.

I fall onto the cold ground behind the garage, scraping my knees on the gravel.

“I didn’t want this,” I cry into the night, voice shaking. “I didn’t want any of this.

“I bite my lip hard to stop myself from screaming.

I think about Mom. She ran away. Left them. Because of me.

And now Luka hates me because of her. Because I was with her.

But I didn’t want that. I didn’t want to be the reason she ran away. I didn’t want any of this.

The tears spill over and I can’t hold them back anymore.

I sob quietly as I scramble off my knees, wishing everything could be different.

I wish Luka didn’t hate me.

I wish I wasn’t so scared.

But most of all, I wish I could make it all go away.My legs carry me without thought until I find myself in a small grove surrounded by trees, the branches creaking softly in the cold night air.

The fire inside me flares and dulls all at once- a cel, painful relief,

The cold night air rushes over the open wounds wand aching.

It hurts.

It burns.

But it’s better than the suffocating heat beneath the wraps.

I close my eyes, breath hitching with every pulse of pain.

It’s all my fault.
