She ran fast and she ran hard.

There was no way she'd outrun the alpha but she really wasn't trying to.

She enjoyed the chase, but this was an alpha and a very drunk one.

She didn't want their mate bond to be obliterated by his inebriation, but once he caught up with her, a smile spread across Stella's face.

"Beta.."

"Alpha..."

"You're nothing.. how did you... How did we?"

Stella held her head high, "I guess you'll have to come and get me to find out."

Caleb smirked, stumbling towards her as Stella braced for impact.

"You need to run. You know the rules of the chase, butterfly."

Before Stella could react, she watched in horror as Alpha Caleb stumbled and fell clear over the cliff.
