It took around 20 minutes for this Sam guy to come into view. Once he made it to the group of guys you could tell he radiated power. He wasn't the alpha but maybe the beta or third in command. He along with 2 other guards were now standing with the rest of the men.

"Ryle what is going on that you had to call me out here," Sam asked to one of the guards.

"Sir, we found these tracks inside the territory. There is a rogue somewhere, and we knew that you would want to be informed," Ryle replied while showing Sam the tracks.

Sam steps forward to see what the guards are looking at. He bends down to get a closer look. His eyes then glaze over as he talks in the mind link.

"The alpha said to find the rogue and bring them to the cells," he announced to the group. I find it funny and couldn't help but laugh out loud. I quickly cover my mouth realizing my mistake.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" Sam tries to use his position and power to intimidate me, but it doesn't really work. I stay hidden in the trees and decide to taunt the men a little.

"I don't think I will. I find it more fun to hide and see if you can find me."

"You'll regret not coming out willingly."

I looked down to see that they were slowly moving around the area. They never to think to look in the trees. Willow just laughs at this seeing as they are looking behind all the trees around.

"The thing is even if I showed myself, it wouldn't do you any good. You wouldn't be able to catch me."

I decide to move to another tree all while staying hidden to mess with them even more.

"I don't even think you could catch a squirrel if it was right in front of you," I call out from my new spot causing all he guys to turn and look in the direction I called from.

"Oh I will show you. And when I do catch you, you will wish you came with us willingly," Sam called out to me frustrated. I found this funny and laughed as I jumped to a new tree.

"How about we play a little game? It is one of my favorites," I taunt to the guards who are all looking in the opposite direction I was in.

"And what game would that be rogue?" Sam called out annoyed now realizing I was toying with him.

"You ready Willow?" I asked while getting ready to jump down from the tree tops and begin the game

she replied with excitement. "Here we go then."

"That game would be the game of chase. Come and get me boys," I call out to the group as I jump down. I turn and run before they could understand what was happening. I could hear the frustration in their voices as they called out after me.

"Don't let her get away!"

"After her you idiots!"

I throw my head back laughing as they try to catch up with me. I already had a head start and would lose them in no time.

I fly through the trees all while evading the guards. It was the thrill of the case that excited me. It was to see how close they could get before I pushed ahead and would eventually lose them. I had a feeling, however, that this game of chase would be a little different.

It has been an hour now of running from these guards. Usually they give up after about 30 minutes because they couldn't keep up. This pack was different. They have been able to keep up and stay with me this whole time. I was growing tired, but I knew one thing. I couldn't let them catch me.

"I'm not sure how much longer I can go on," I called out in a hurry to Willow.

Willow was getting restless and was worried just as much as I was that these guys weren't going to give up and would catch us.

I quickly take the bag off my back and hold it in front of me. I knew I didn't have the time to strip my clothes, so I quickly shift hearing the sound of my clothes ripping.

"There goes another set of clothes," I say slightly annoyed as clothes for us as a rogue was hard for us to come by.

Willow did have a point. I would just have to find more later. Right now we had bigger problems to address.

"Now we are talking. Let the chase really begin," I heard Sam call out followed by growls from the guards.

I let Willow have full control knowing she would need it to hopefully get us away from these guys. I watched as the trees rushed past us in a blur. She was running as fast as she could but was definitely slowing. The guards were slowing gaining on us. They were catching up fast.

"Come on Willow we have to lose them," I called out to her.

she replied sounding as if she was out of breath.

We continued running hoping they would give up soon. We turned to see that they were falling back.

" Willow said while still running. What she didn't see until it was to late was the wall of guards she was running into.

"Willow look out!" I shouted but it was to late. She ran right where they wanted us.

"Well this is just great. What do you think we should do now?" I asked Willow while looking around us. The guards who had been chasing us appear in the group shifted back dressed in shorts and t-shirt.

she replied back almost to calmly for my liking.

Before I could question her further, I was interrupted by someone speaking.

"So this is the one that was causing all this trouble Sam? She seems easy enough to catch," the man in front of the group called out.

"Don't let her looks fool you, Everett. She is a hell of a runner. I believe she is the one they call the Rogue Runner," Sam replied while still trying to catch his breath. This cause me and Willow both to laugh which probably looked funny for a wolf to try and laugh. This caused the guys to focus their attention back to us.

"Shift. Now." Everett demanded us. He was crazy if he thought I was going to shift and be naked for all these guys to see. I just looked at him like he was crazy. We had lost our bag while running from the guards and now had no clothes. I guess he got the hint. He took his shirt off and threw it at our feet.

"Men turn around," he called for the men to turn around. I quickly shifted and pulled the shirt over myself. I was short enough that it came down to just above my knees.

"You can turn around now," I called out while crossing my arms over my chest annoyed that we had actually gotten caught. They all turned around to look at me. You could tell who all the unmated males where as they were looking at me with lust in their eyes.

"That was a hell of a chase I'll give you that," Sam said to me while moving to stand next to Everett.

"What can I say? I like to run," I reply with a shrug.

"You will be coming with us. The alpha will definitely want to meet you," Everett said while motioning for the guards to escort me to the cells.

"This should be fun," I say to Willow sarcastically. She had been quite ever since I shifted back.

" She replied excitement. I didn't understand what she was excited for. We were just caught and were being taken prisoner. I guess we will have to see.
