Here is the sentence:
With regret, Jack slung the heavy backpack
over his shoulders and fleed the cold library.
If he had brought a jacket, he could have
continued fantasizing about the cute librarian who sat at the reference
desk.
The second verb, fleed, is the problem. As you know, the sentence requires the simple past. Fled is the correctly spelled form.
