4 FOUR: Kidnapped (1/2)
Xander's POV
Damn... Rebecca was right, Alexi and I looked at each other as we were already bent over, panting. And for gods sake it's only been 2 minutes... They do this shit for a fucking hour! I looked up and the two were chuckling at us.
”Come on guys, start running or we'll make it 2 hours of this.” said Veronica.
”Oh hell no, I ain't doin this for 2 hours...” I said as I straightened my back out and started running. Veronica quickly caught up to me, staying by my side, and a few seconds later Alexi and Becca caught up too.
”How can you guys even do this without stopping?” Alexi asked, sounding exhausted.
”Well, we do stop. But only to take a drink then we start running again.” Responded Veronica, and stopping for drinks won't have much use for Alexi and I considering we chugged our water in the first minute and thirty seconds. When we reached our 15 minute mark, Veronica and Rebecca stopped and downed some water. Alexi had collapsed on the ground and held his hand out to Becca asking for some water which she teasingly declined, but Veronica on the other hand wouldn't let me keep going without drinking some water, so she passed me the bottle and I ended up drinking half of it which, V being V, didn't mind.
”You guys keep going. We'll catch up with you soon” I said to Veronica and Becca as they both nodded and kept on with their run.
”Dude get your ass up!” I said while lifting up Alexi.

Veronica's POV
”We gonna do our normal run?” Asked Becca. And I thought about it for a moment then nodded.
”Yeah, I'll meet you at our usual spot after our runs.” I responded before taking the usual road I cut onto. After a few minutes I felt more than one presence and assumed it was just another runner, and kept on with my exercise.
”Well, the woman does look tasty.. Must we hand her over to Abel” I heard the voice and turned behind me, my heart skipping a beat at the sight of two vampires before me.
”What do you want..”
”Isn't it obvious? We want you dearie... Well, Abel wants you.” they said as they started closing in around me and all I could think to do was scream.
”XANDER!”
”Ah, well that was rather stupid.” Was the last thing I heard before I blacked out.

Xander's POV
I heard Veronica scream out for me, thanks to my excelerated senses. She sounded distressed and I could feel it, even my wolf Allistair was stirring and a few whimpers escaped my vocal chords.
”...Am I the only one losing my connection to Veronica? What the fuck?” Alexi growled. I then heard my phone ringing in my back pocket and answered to Veronica's brother who asked the same thing. Then Becca came back out of breath, distress written all over her face.
”Where the hell is V?” she grumbled and then the packs mind link started blazing and I cut in.
'Everyone shut the hell up!' I growled out in the mind link.
