The Alpha Prince in his Mate Selection

JANE’S POV

Running ….. running.. running!

I can’t turn back, I’m scared… too scared to look back.

It’s coming behind me in a massive speed…… I once turned and saw it’s red eyes and I couldn’t look at it twice.

I’m tired but I must go on if I want to stay alive….. I must continue running.

“Jane, run! Keep running !” she yells from behind me.

I increased my pace, running faster than before…. I can’t get caught. “ Ruin don’t look back!” he urged me.

I heard a thud but didn’t look back…. The heavy footstep stops, but not for long… it continues again.

I’m panting and running out of breath but that didn’t stop me … I must get out of here.

“ Julie!” I heard his panicked cry.

I stopped running abruptly and turn back… my eyes grew wide, my mouthy hanged open as I couldn’t process what’s happening.

“ Julie” he cried again.. and reality of what’s happening dawn on me.

It has finally caught up with them….. she laid on the ground with it mighty form over her…. Barring its teeth at her……. ready to devour her.

“He tries to fight it off but obviously isn’t strong enough”….… it pushed him away with its snout.

It already clenched it teeth on her neck tearing it…. I can’t just watch I must help.

I step forward but unfortunately its neck snapped towards my direction….. I halt frighteningly.

“ No!” A scream leaves my mouth.

It takes a step towards me… my heart beating fast but he suddenly steps in front of it…. Not flinching away from its glaring red eyes.

He pushes it back and grunts.

“ Jane, run!” he said before it tackles him and land him on the ground…… it teeth positioned on his neck.

“NO!”

My eyes snaps open and I quickly sat up….Panting heavily.

My head aches and my hands move to my forehead… wiping off the beads of sweat.

I reached for the table lamp and turn it on…. I reached for the glass of water and pills on the night stand…. I stared at it and sighed deeply.

“ Don’t go into the woods…. It’s dangerous!"

“ There are vicious beats lurking around the woods!”

“ Always stay in the house and don’t come out at night!”

Had I listened to these words and….

Had I been obedient…. I wouldn’t be having this nightmares.

The door burst open and my sib ling came in…… Tonia and Anthony they are actually twins…. rushes in.

“Though we all call Anthony, Tony.”

Tony rushed straight to my bedside but Tonia flips the lights on before coming to me.

Tonia wipes off sweat on my forehead… Tony holds my right hand in his.

“ Jane, are you alright?” Tonia asked.

“ Had another night mare?” Tony asked immediately after Tonia.

I simply nod to answer both their questions.

Tony and Tonia exchange looks and Tony sighed.

“ Thankfully, we are moving today!” Tonia said. I raised my head at once with a surprise expression on.

“ Moving?! When did that happen?!

Why am I just finding out about it just now?!”

I studied their expression as I questioned them….. Tony is avoiding my gaze but Tonia kept a straight face on.

Tony turns on the alarm clock on my nightstand and gasped dramatically.

“ it’s 05:00am…..” he claps his hands and stands up.”

Jane start packing, let’s move!”

I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply… I don’t have time for his jokes now.

I drop the pills I was holding and crossed my arms across my chest… a scorn on my face…. I can imagine my brows knit together.

“ No!” I said looking at Tonia…. His straight face still on.

Tony laughs lightly. “ Come on Jane.

Don’t be stubborn now, we’re doing this for your own good” he explained to me.

“ No!” I said again.

“ But……’

“ No buts, Tony. I’m not moving!”

They both know I don’t like when we move…. I always have problem adapting to a new environment.

“ Jane don’t be like that….. now that mom and dad are…….”

“Stop!” I cut him off.

I don’t like it when they mention our parents….. I can’t get over what happened yet, even if it has been three years now.

“ We’ve moved more than twenty times, when are we going to stop moving?” I asked.

“ we’re only trying to find a quiet place for you, somewhere that won’t trigger your night mares” Tony explained.

I scoffed…. Excuse!. That the only thing they say every time they want us to move.

He points towards my window…. Wait, did I forget to lock my window before going to bed?

“ Look your window is just facing those woods…. Who knows if that’s the reason for your night mares” he said.

I turn my gaze from the window to Tonia…. She’s exceptionally quiet.

Well, I don’t need to tell you about their personalities now….. you can clearly tell that Tony is the simple and approachable one among them .

Tonia is strict with me… no, she’s strict with me and Tony…. But a bit lenient with Tony.

“ I still don’t want to move, Tony” I said staring pointedly at Tonia, as if she was actually the one I’m talking to.

“ And truly she is the one I’m talking to… I was directing that comment to him while looking at Tony.

“ But Jane…..” Tonia bangs on my night stand and stands up, he stares at me sternly.

“ We are moving today and final!” I flinched back and grab Tony’s arm.

“ To..Tonia calm down let’s talk to her calmly she will understand.”

“ Well you’ve been trying to talk to her calmly, did she understand?”

She scolds Tony instead. She turns to me.

“ Start packing up…. We’re moving by 8am!” she leaves my room immediately.

Tony sighs and sits on my bed, his hands on my left check, caressing it softly.

“ Don’t worry, Jane you will adapt sooner than you expect” he said.

“Lie!”

“ True! I’ll take you round town when we get there…. And who knows, you might make a whole lots of friends!”

I rolled my eyes I know exactly what he is trying to do, I know what he meant by that.

“ I’ll show you all the beautiful scenery and …."

Just tell me you want me to accompany you to your job hunting I interrupt him.
