Elize ran as fast as she could, avoiding the low branches as she kept towards the border. She didn't know how she was going to take him to the other side, but all that could be figured out once they were safe. For now, she had to outrun the wolf that was fast gaining on them.
Lang Jin was faster than she had thought he would be. The man was no average wolf. The Lang genes never failed to surprise her. His paws beat against the forest floor heavily as he took a sharp turn right behind her. He hadn't faltered once since he followed her out the window, through the treetops to the forest floor.
The Luna knew that if she didn't lose him soon, then all her efforts would go to waste. And she couldn't allow that. She had almost died back there, trying to take her mate out of the pack house. She had to stay alive for now, no matter what. Irina must have seen the flicker in the barrier. At least she had to buy her cousin some time to open a portal at the very next opportunity.
