Chapter 71

• SELENE
• I ran until my legs burned and my lungs ached. The feeling of being exposed and abandoned was complete. All I felt was hate. Hate for myself, for Orion, for the pack. Hate that my wolf had failed to leave its mark on him. Betrayal was a bitter taste in my mouth.
• Running only stopped when the border was near. With one final leap, the tie to the Alpha snapped. The freedom was hollow, filled only with a sadness that clawed inside my chest until my pace finally slowed.
