Through The Eyes Of My Alpha

NADIA.

I reveled in the feeling of the fresh air on my skin and the wind blowing through my hair as I sped up the motorcycle that I was riding through the forest line.

A few more hours and I would be a free woman.

My name is Nadia Morrison. I am a shifter. At least that I know.

All the other things about me or my real family, I had no idea.

I’ve heard things about my father, but I didn’t bother to find out more. It was enough to know that he didn’t want me and had abandoned my mother while she was pregnant. And the man who took care of me when my mother died after giving birth left me in the hands of the couple who were known to me as my uncle and aunt.

My aunt said she’s my mother’s sister. But it didn’t feel like that.

I was five years old when they took me in. And from then on, they groomed me so that one day, they could make money out of me. But I would never allow them to do that.

I jumped off the motorcycle as soon as I stopped the engine and parked it nicely, hidden behind the high bushes.

This was the place I told Tyson, one of my friends, to pick up the bike tomorrow so he could return it to Katarina, our Alpha’s sister and one of my best friends.

From here, I needed to walk for approximately five hours within the neutral forest before I reached a road where I could hitch with someone who could take me to the city.

And from there, I would take the train and leave this place to start a new life within the human territory.

I’ve been planning this since I turned eighteen, but I never had the courage to do so. But with my impending marriage to a man thirty years my senior by the next full moon, I couldn’t delay this any longer.

I needed to get away from here.

I let out a deep sigh and slung my backpack over my shoulders before I began my journey, threading the ground not usually used for walking. I did my own research for months and found this way that I could use where I would be most unlikely to be seen.

I have to go unnoticed. And if I make it out of the neutral city, it would be easier to transfer from city to city and find a place I would like.

I knew I didn’t have so much money with me, just enough for me to survive for a month or two, but I knew how to work. And Katarina helped me with my fake credentials so I could apply for work under a different name.

My wolf, Arrow, wasn’t happy with my decision to live with humans, but she didn’t stop me. Being with humans was way better than being married to an old man who smelled of strong tobacco and alcohol.

I could take a rest there for a few minutes before I continued. I didn’t want to summon Arrow yet. I would let her out when my feet could no longer carry me, so I just let her rest in the back of my mind, not letting her share
