Chapter 3

I reached home after 3 in the morning, and approached the front door of my house. I don’t know what was stopping me from entering but the atmosphere felt off. Something wasnt right. Without making a sound a peeled through a small opening through the inside of the curtains from the window. I wished I was more wrong.

There where those bastards from the jailhouse in my home. My parents didn’t seem to be under any pain, they’re just waiting.. waiting for me to enter. Shit. What do I do now? I turned to leave from the house but I stepped on something. Like a hook? Whatever it was I wasn’t quick enough to move and before I knew it.. something slashed across my stomach. It burned badly. The pain was excruciating

that I didn’t even realize that I was screaming.

And then the front door opened, truck headlights came on people started to emerge from the dark. They surround me. Escape was impossible. But I damn sure wasn’t going back there. The only option out of desperation I started running for the woods. I couldn’t turn back, I didn’t want to turn back. I kept running and running, every second I felt my heart was about to explode. They were behind me

chasing after me. They tried to shoot tranquilizers at me but they would just pass above my head. “God help me.” My tears choked and blurred my vision while I was running. The trees started to clear up until it just lead the end of a cliff. My entire body started to shake

trying to grasp for air. Their voices and shouts were getting closer. I calmed myself down for a second. “Okay..breathe Maria.. breathe.”

I focused on my hearing.. blocking all other sounds near me. “Water.. okay that’s good.”

There’s water down there if I could time it right-

A tranquilizer hit me in the back and I fell towards the edge.. falling. Further and further taking a last glimpse of the top before I fainted.

“Ugh.” I woke up feeling a little pain but i didn’t open my eyes. Was I back in the jail cell? Was I home in my bed, was it all a bad dream and I came home safe and sound? I opened my eyes.

Well I was in bed... but I this isnt my house. I remember everything that happened last night. The running, the falling from the cliff I know im a werewolf but that was a really long fall.

“Okay maybe someone saved me, like an old woman perhaps?” The room I was in look a bit

antique-ish. I tried to lean up but the spot where I was shot still felt painful. “Ah!” I was wrapped around in banadages around me.

“Don’t move, the wolfsbane hasn’t removed from your system yet.” I jumped from the unexpected voice in the room that caught my attention.

He was tall and muscular light skin for some reason he wasn’t wearing a shirt either, this guy has no shame. His tattoos that spread from across his chest to his arms. His black hair almost covered the side of his face but it was still visible. I couldn’t imagine how long I was staring at him like an idiot. “What? Did the poison make you go deaf as well?” He said.
