Chapter 45

• Keiran's relatively slow pace increased, and a few seconds later, he was running with his mate on his back. Helena readjusted herself on top of him and grabbed tighter around his neck, afraid she'd fall from the quick movements of his body. She turned her head to the meadow and the approaching forest on the front. Everything was flowing so quickly around them. Keiran was trying to be careful in his haste, but jumping from two feet to four made her gasp. The force and speed he was using caused her to bounce on his back a few times. Her legs tied harder around his ribcage and sank in his soft hot fur. Her cheeks flushed, adrenaline keeping her on toes and wide awake.
• They were now in the middle of the forest, surrounded by bushes, undergrowth, and fallen leaves. Red, yellow, and brown mixed together. Just like the emotions in Helena.
• After fifteen more minutes of him running in an unknown direction, Keiran slowed down.
