Life After the Storm

I hear Landon talking, but I don't understand the words as I watch his lips move but not understanding the words, I watch as He reaches his arm out to me to comfort me. I then move backwards, not wanting any of his comfort. I'm shocked, wondering if he was involved in everything that has taken place.

I don't speak to him, I turn around, and I run, I don't shift, I just run as myself. Tears flowed down my eyes, realizing all that had happened was a test. To figure out, I was a healer. I'm so uncertain about everything. I want answers, but I feel betrayed. I, no what I wanted in the beginning, wanting to find out who I was, but knowing now what it all cost just wasn't worth any of it.

It seems like I'm losing small pieces of myself as time goes on. I'm scared that eventually I'm just going to disappear and hate who I become. I don't look back, I just continue to run faster and faster. I need to get away from all of this. I have been held here for too long, it's time to get out of here, especially now that Ivan has set me free.

I'm shocked at the way my body feels, especially since I was so malnourished. From Jayden healing me, I feel more power than I have ever felt. I begin to slow as I think of Jayden. Can I leave him behind? I don't have a choice, I have to protect myself. No matter the bond that I have with Jayden, I need to escape this place. I've only ever been put through pain. I need to escape this place once and for all.

I then can hear the shuffling between the leaves and in a distance I know someone is following me. Scared that it is Ivan, ready to attack me and put me through all the misery you possibly can. But it isn't his scent that I smell, it is Landon. I become confused, why would he Chase me, what does he want now?

I then feel pain as I'm being tumbled down to the ground. I try to escape, but there's no use as he holds my hands down to the ground, and a naked Landon is on top of me. “Landon, what are you doing, let me go.”
