A MAZE OF GREED

"Don't stop, Ruth. Run, run!" Thea yelled again while moving her hands. Before Edwin turned her around and got a chance to see her face, Ruth pulled her hand up and jabbed his nose. Edwin wailed in pain as he felt his nose go numb with pain. Instinctively he freed Ruth to cover his nose with both hands. He bent over a little as his eyes watered because of pain. "You!" He hissed in anger as he leapt again for Ruth. But she managed to run before he could catch her again. Her head turned around in shock when Edwin's hand tore her dress when he tried to grab her. It also surprised Edwin as he had not intended for this to happen. He looked up from the piece of cloth in his hand to see gorgeous hazel eyes. He stood rooted to his spot as his mind went blank. Ruth managed to get out of the property and ran with Thea without looking back. The guard came panting, but Edwin didn't notice him as his eyes were still trained on the gap in the wall, through which Ruth escaped. He slowly looked at the brown fabric in his hand, and the image of those alluring hazel eyes flashed in his mind. He clutched the fabric tightly in his hand, and the word left his lips in a whisper.

YOU RAN LIKE AN COWARD!

"Ruth please, you need to take a rest." Rees tried to push her shoulder to stop her, but how could he understand the fright in her heart?

Only a woman understands the other woman's pain, they say.

And Thea... Thea was her best friend, like a sister!

"No Rees! I have to see her. She needs me Rees! Oh my God! Thea! She must be in pain Rees. She must be crying right now!"

Rees pulled her into his chest as tears rolled down his cheeks freely. Ruth sobbed on his chest, and he began running his hand on the back of her head.

They cried, sharing each other's pain.

A few minutes later, Mrs Payne dabbed her eyes and placed her hand on Rees's shoulder, patting lightly. "Rees, dear, I think we should let Ruth meet Thea. They both understand each other better. They both need each other too."

"But Mrs Payne, Ruth-"

"Rees, you trust your Luna to fight an army of rogues but not speak with her best friend?"
