Chapter 124 

Annette POV: 

It had been two days since I was in Washington. That’s where I’d been held for the past few months that I hadn’t seen. my husband, my parents or my s…. 

I still couldn’t say it. I still had my heart filled with hope but I couldn’t bring myself to talk about that sweet little bundle I had given myself up for. I was so close to him and to Grayson and I still couldn’t think of my ba…. 

My heart would shatter inside me if I thought of all I had missed and everything I would never get back. If we somehow screwed this up I knew I wouldn’t be able to function to crawl back out of the hole that would encapsulate 

1. me. 

We got into the truck and the two men driving us took us to a bus station they got out and we took the truck to the train station. We left it there but after we got out Simon took the plates off and threw them away, a move id didn’t even think of. 

“Okay so there’s a 5:15 to Vancouver,” Simon told us when we got in and my body reeled against it. 

“No,” I told him even if being as close as I had been in the last few months to Grayson made me shine from the inside 

out. 

We couldn’t do that we couldn’t go the straightforward route. That’s what they expected we had to play this smart. So we needed to go somewhere else, someone we could trust or at least maybe I could trust. 

Deacon would be watching anything and everything I had reminded him and I watched the blood drain from his face. He knew what would happen so slowly to him if Deacon ever caught him. 

We decided then that we would split up. We bought hats and glasses and we agreed to take the 4:00 Montana. 

Montana…. 

“My pack and I are leaving today. I know the tournament did not go as many thought but I wanted you to know Im glad you’re happy and if there’s anything you ever need you should just ask,” he reached out to shake my hand. 

“I laughed internally at the formality of it.” 

“Thank you Max it was really truly nice to get to know you and I hope you find a Luna who’s worth you,” 

*I went to pull my hand away but Max surprised me by bending down and kissing my hand.” 

I’m sure this isn’t what Max meant and I know that he had once expected me to be his Luna and his wife and maybe in another world he would have been but fate had intervened. 

We were gonna head to Montana and hopefully, Max would let us stay until Grayson came for me. I felt like an absolute ass going there but hopefully, after everything that had happened to me, Max would be understanding. 

Ashely came with me and Simon went ahead of us I watched him and he watched us constantly keeping each other in

our gare. We got on the train facing each other but he was four seats away. 

Two men came and sat on the other side of us and Ashely went white but I put my hand over hers. “Look,” I pointed at a magazine and she nodded trying to focus. 

“That’s so not her color,” I grimaced and Ashely smiled at my comment. 

We poured over the magazines and looked at all the outfits and the girl was well relaxed enough to sleep on my shoulder. 

I couldn’t imagine what the poor girl had been through in the last 24 hours she had learned a lot about her world and what the people we love are capable of doing to protect us. 

We had made it off the train and were walking through the station when Simon came up on my side I almost pushed him away but he whispered in my car. “Your seatmates are still following us,” 

“They’re probably waiting to get us alone,” I huffed and placed a loose stand of hair behind my ear as I looked over my shoulder. 

I didn’t know them and he didn’t smell like a wolf. He was one of Deacons now doubt they had nice shoes and nice watches. 

They were going to come after us sooner or later. More sooner than later we were about to exit the train station to find 

a travel car. 

I gave Ashley’s hand over to her brother moved behind them and grabbed the knife from his bag as best I could without them seeing. 

We got out of the station and I pushed them towards a corner of the building where there was next to no one and as soon as I did they picked up pace. I shoved the two against the wall and spun around lunging at the larger of the two. His eyes were large and he tried to pin me down against him in a bear hug. 

I slashed at his chest and he stepped back and I plunged the knife up into him and under his arm making him howl in pain then as he dropped down I resisted it into his back before spinning into his partner but he had thought better 

and bolted. 

Ashely was clinging onto her brother and sobbing but I grabbed my backpack off the floor. “We need to go and quickly, I hurried them over to the rod and we crossed as quickly as a terrified teen girl could. 

We picked out a jeep because from what I remember Max said his land was protected by mountains and if you didn’t have a good nose it was impossible to get to. Luckily we were wolves and I knew how to drive a stick. 

We drove all day without any interference it wasn’t likely the only two bears who knew that we were in Montana and they didn’t know where we were headed from here they probably thought I was still going to my husband. 

And I was but he was gonna have to meet me halfway. We drove for hours we didn’t stop unless it was for when we did I watched the mirrors and when another car pulled up I grabbed the gun, every time.

and 

We kept driving and then we got to the mountains and my mind brought up Max’s face immediately. The mountains smelled singularly of spruce except for a trail of pines. Guiding the way.

Chapter 124 

“Ha!” I smiled that was his way of protecting his people only wolves could smell a minute difference like that in so 

much forest. 

I got nervous what if Max was angry that I had spurned him? What if he wasn’t the good stand–up guy I remembered what if even though I had just escaped my kidnapping he would turn me out for being so impertinent. 

I wouldn’t blame him he wasn’t my ex we hardly knew each other and when we did we had spoken about a life together all for the goddess to pluck me up and place me in the arms of Grayson. He could take me and keep me captive himself in ire and revenge. 

The closer we got the more unsure of my unusual and slightly unethical plan. I could only hope that the man who kissed my hand was just as sweet as I remembered. 

We got to the gates and two guards stood there and I got out of the jeep. 

1 put up my hands and walked toward them and took off my hat and glasses slowly. “My name is Annette Addams formerly Maloria I have to see Maxwell Crag I seek asylum,” I looked at them with as much respect as person could. 

They radioed for their heir and before long a convoy of cars was coming to meet us the gates opened and out popped Max who came up to me and hugged me tightly. 

“I’ve heard about what happened to you come inside come inside,” He held me to him not as amn who once wanted me for himself but in a kind and friendly way and I felt the etars stream down my face. 

My heart practically shattered with happiness. I would see my husband I would see. I would see my baby. My baby. 

“My baby.
