《The Tracking ✔》Chapter 5-Don't Come Looking

Theo
I stood in front of the door that would change everything. The smell was at a full high and I felt my wolf begging, fighting for control.
My wolf's nervous and excited. I... well I'm just absolutely terrified. I wanted to walk away but my wolf wouldn't let me. I lean against the door, smelling her scent even more as my fist clenched at my sides. I can't restrain myself any longer as my hands grip the door knob.
I'm greeted with an empty room. The blue curtains blow in and I run toward the open window and look down into the grass.
I look for her.
I couldn't pick up any movement at all. Not even a beat of the heart. I walk back feeling my heart sink into the pit of my chest. I knew as soon as I stepped in, that she was gone.
I walked around the room, taking in the smell of her and trying to get a idea of who she was and what she was like.
I genuinely thought she was a messy person. Her chest drawers were pulled out and some clothes hung over. Her vanity stood in the corner reflecting a reflection of myself. I didn't see any photos or even a name on the wall like most girls have.
I had nothing that led me to know who she was. I let out a sigh as my wolf whimpered in the back of my mind. He retreated, defeated and hurt.
I sit on the bottom of her bed, that is covered in a red satin cloth. Maybe the Moon Goddess agrees with me that she and I don't need to find each other.
I felt a paper crunch under my weight and found it in the sheets. It was freshly written, I could still smell the ink.

Mom and Dad,
I am sorry but this is something I must do. Please don't come looking. I hope you can understand. I love you.
She left it unsigned and with a small heart at the bottom. I laid back in her sheets and welcome the elopement of the sweet smell of my mate which comforted me. But even I felt cold and alone laying the the heap of sheets where my mate has slept.
I glanced around the room, and it was clearer than when I walked in that my mate packed her bags. I didn't even know who's daughter she was. I didn't know the first place she would go. I didn't know how to track her.
The best option I have is to wait until tomorrow to go question the Alpha after his baby is delivered. I didn't know if I would actually go after her, but I need some questions answered.
Something told me that I need to learn about her.
______________
I fumbled through my drawers, packing my bag tightly and with as much as I could.
How long would I be gone? Where would I go? What shoes do I need to wear?
A thousand thoughts came alive in my mind but one stood out above the rest.
Why are you really doing this?
I distracted myself while I hid personal pictures of myself under the clothes still left in my chest drawers. I hadn't realized how many pictures I had collected until I was hiding them all. I needed to play it safe and buy some time to get away. I felt uneasy and like my time was running out.
I grabbed two containers of concealer and made a mental note to pick up more a few towns over. I slung my backpack over my shoulder when a flash of smiles caught my eye.

A picture I forgot I had of my family. My mom, dad, myself and little brother at a carnival. My mark showed up dark and beautifully and I smiled with such enthusiasm. I smile and take the picture, stuffing it into my bag.
I grow more and more uneasy. I felt like I was about to get caught in a lie or a scheme. It was time for me to go.
I climb down the vine at my window and see my car in the distance. The pack defenders are most likely on a much higher alert considering our Alpha and Luna is about to bring a heir into this world.
I had my plans, my plans have always worked out. Despite this clearly not being my original plan I had no reason to worry.
I made it to my car and attempted to not look suspicious. I watched my surroundings and prayed my mate didn't find me before I had a chance to escape.
You do want him to find us. My wolf said sarcastically.
I get into the car, turning the ignition and driving down toward the gate. I needed to leave my emotions and my heart there at my room. I would be a rogue now that I am abandoning my pack.
Was it better to be a rogue than meet my mate? Yes. I didn't want to abandon my pack, but they would be better without me. I believe that with all of my heart.
The only way I will survive will to toughen myself up.
Even if that means giving in to the darkness.

The Bloodline System
In a future timeline, the earth was visited by a species known as the Slarkovs.
8 140The Last 100
The bustling crush of humanity had become common place now, the cacophony of voices and the symphony of a city had become the song and dance of our species. But it was not always such, and return back to our more humble roots we did.The system had come, and it had stripped us bare. Sure it had given us a means to power, but at what cost. We were the last 100 left. Night was falling on the human race, it was a dark night, and it was cold.But go quietly we would not. We would make the world burn with an inferno of our defiance. Rage, rage against that goodnight, and I Jack Casser, have rage a plenty. This is my story, the story of the last 100.Author Note: This story is a LitRPG apocalypse, woah fucking original idea I know but hear me out. If you can look past preconceived ideas driven by a stigma of overdone tropes and done to death plots of achieving world domination and self-righteous characters and give the story a chance I hope it can surprise you.
8 116The Lies They Told Me: Short stories from my life
Like many of my peers, I've discovered that life is not quite what I expected it to be. As I age, I've begun to find that many of the sayings and truths that my parents, authority figures, and friends have passed on to me were outright lies. Every person I know has been subject to the same interactions, which got me thinking, why not write a compilation of stores about my life experiences to date. I hope that this book will help all of us come to terms with the realities that we face today or deal with some of our deepest feelings about the past. Maybe these people lied to us and maybe they honestly believed the myriad of things they told us, but either way I think we can have a good laugh looking back and remembering the first times that we realized these things weren't true. I also hope that you can look back at the lies, or life lessons, that you've learned and can be inspried to own your stories and share them with others in a genuine way. Wiithout further ado, I hope that you enjoy the many short stories of my life that made me who I am today. These stories range from funny to down right surrel, so good luck on your journey!
