Haven't got that much homework today (again! Yay!) so I can write a short chapter!

~ Maddy's POV ~

I'm nearly there ... Just a bit left to go ...

~ Rhydian's POV ~

I see Maddy ahead of me but I can't catch her up! Come on Rhydian!

~ Maddy's POV ~

Yes! I've made it! I see dad.

'DAD!' He looks at me quickly.

'Maddy?' He starts to jog up to me. 'Where's Jana and Rhydian?'

'He- She- SoIFoundRhydianButHeWasn'tInTroubleAndHeSaidThatHe NeverWasSoIRanAwayAndItWasReallyEmbarrassingBecaus eRhydianKnowsThat-' I said it really fast in one breath because I was really panicky about Rhydian arriving here.

'Woah, woah, woah! Slow down! All I heard was Rhydian's name ...'

'Okay, basically, dad, I'm staying with you in the wild. Without Rhydian.'

'No! Maddy! Please let me explain!' A voice screams out from behind.

~ Rhydian's POV ~

'He- She- SoIFoundRhydianButHeWasn'tInTroubleAndHeSaidThatHe NeverWasSoIRanAwayAndItWasReallyEmbarrassingBecaus eRhydianKnowsThat-' Wait, she was embarrassed? Why? It's only me ... I'm dying to tell her the truth. The next thing I hear is:

'Okay, basically, dad, I'm staying with you in the wild. Without Rhydian.' WHAT?! NO! I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING, I'M LOSING HER!

'No! Maddy! Please let me explain!' She snaps her head around and I see- Are they- Tears?

'Rhydian, there's nothing to explain! I made a huge mistake and you're probably gonna hate me now-'

'Maddy, no! I need to tell you the truth! I lo-' I stop. I smell another wolfblood.

~ Jana's POV ~

She lets go of me. 'This isn't over.' How can she- My thoughts are interrupted by Tom.

'Umm ... Shouldn't we go look for Mads and Rhydian now?' I nod. I was going to look for Rhydian anyway. Oh and Maddy. Obviously.

'Yeah. I can pick up their scent. Come on, follow me.'

'No, Jana, we'll just hold you up. You're faster than us. You go, right Shan?' Shannon gives him a death stare but then reluctantly nods.

I nod in approval and run off, following Rhydian's faint scent.

I finally arrive. Outside my pack's meeting point. Wait what?! Outside my pack's meeting point? I decide not to reveal myself yet so I start to listen while hiding behind a chunky tree trunk.

'Rhydian, there's nothing to explain! I made a huge mistake and you're probably gonna hate me now-' Maddy says. I damn right hope so.

'Maddy, no! I need to tell you the truth! I lo-' NO! He was going to say he loves her! Aaaaarghhh! I feel my blood boiling again. I stop thankfully. I stop to think about what he said. There's a truth?

~ Rhydian's POV ~

'Maddy, no! I need to tell you the truth! I lo-' He stops.

'Truth?' I say. He turns his full attention on me.

'Yes, Maddy ... I love-' Suddenly I see Jana run in. She puts her arms around his neck.

'There you are!' She presses her lips against his.

'Rhydian?' I find myself slowly backing away. Rhydian pushes Jana back.

'Jana!' He looks at her as his veins turn black and his eyes turn golden. He snarls at her, but I still back away. 'Maddy! Maddy, this is nothing, I don't even know what she's doing. Maddy, you know I wouldn't do that! Listen to me ...' He slowly advances to me. I step further back. I get faster and a faster at stepping back until it turns into a run. I hear him call out my name several times in desperation, but I still run. I hear dad calling mam. I run as fast as I can. I don't know where I'm going but I run.

~ Emma's POV ~

'What?! Where is she now then?' Dan just told me everything that had happened in the last few minutes.

'Emma, I- I don't know ...'

'Well then let's find her!' How could Daniel just let my daughter go trike that?! 'Why didn't you stop her?!'

'She was fighting! I didn't know it would lead to her running off! Now let's go before her scent disappears!'

'No.' Rhydian speaks up after fighting wolf to wolf with Jana. Dan had to step in before Rhydian injured Jana badly. 'I need to fix this. I'll go.' With that he runs off.

'Pet, no! Rhydian!'

So there's chapter 9! I only get two subjects of homework tomorrow, so if I can, I'll try to write another chapter. Sorry this one was so short but I have to revise for a geography test! Aaaaah!

Ciao for now X
