Werewolves are real

Cain's POV

I plan to follow Alesha when she goes home. Just in case something happen. She walks home, that I deduced.

I can feel her being nervous again as she try to hide how her eyes roam around before continuing to walk. Is there something wrong?

I can sense a presence somewhere here, like she is being watched. Just then, a black wolf sprang from the side and shoved Alesha into the area of the woods. By instinct, I went off and ran towards where she is.

The wolf turned to me with its red eyes. In broad daylight, this thing dared. I can feel my eyes' intensive glare at it.

The wolf pranced at me and tried to drag Alesha but even in human form, I was able to smash at it and send it hurtling a few meters from where we stood.

"Cain" Alesha's voice has this fear in it, "What is happening?"

I quickly scooped and carried her. I start to ran towards the road into the street. We came by a bench which is just by the row of houses with people. I did not pay heed of the people looking at us as they pass by.

Alesha has cuts in her arms and some scratches in her neck. I called Rica on my phone.

"Can you pick us up?"

"Who are you with?"

"My mate."

"Koren? Is she --- "

"Just pick us up, we're near the school, a couple of blocks away, near a mini-grocery store."

I hang up and put my arms around Alesha. Her body had started to shake. Anyone would have been shaken from that experience.

"It will be okay." I managed to say. She did not say anything.

Half an hour we were like that until Rica picked us up. When we were out of the woods, I can still smell the wolf but it did not follow us. Whoever it is will surely pay for what she's done to Alesha.

Esha's POV

I did not say anything during the ride with Cain and the woman who picked us up. I am still shaken with what happened a while back and I feel so weak. I think I lost consciousness because here I am lying on a soft four poster bed like the ones seen in movies from a rich house.

"You're awake, how are you feeling?" I turned to look at who that is and saw Cain sitting on the bedside.

"Where are we?" I asked instead.

"Our house" he answered, "How are you feeling?" he asked again. His eyes are full of worry. I don't know for sure but his eyes are like that to me. I want to hold his face.

That's weird! What's happening here?

"I'm fine, I guess" I answered then a flashback of what happened came back again, I felt some twitching of my body and then felt Cain's hand on mine. The humming feeling of fear creeping inside along the twitching feeling kind of stopped.

"What happened to the wolf? Was it a wolf? It has red eyes, I ---- " I stopped abruptly and looked at him "How did you shoved it like that?"

"Adrenaline, I guess" he answered. But his eyes were not looking at me when he said that.

"That can be but I think you're lying" I said. Some weird things have happened today, one, this guy showed up and showed me his interest, two, a woman he knows, obviously came to us saying I have to be careful from him and three, a freaking real wolf just attacked me.

He was silent for a bit.

"You are my mate, Alesha."

Here he goes again with that.

"What mate? Like vampires and werewolves?" I asked in a sarcastic way but he did not laughed.

"Not vampires" he said.

I looked at him and tried to find emotion to betray his words, some kind of emotion to show he's just kidding with me. But there are none.

"Werewolf" he continued, "The one who attacked you is a werewolf."

"In broad daylight? Aren't they suppose to turn during a full moon?" I just went along with what he is saying.

"Alesha, we are real" he said.

I laughed a bit and looked at him.

"I don't know what you're up to but joking around with me won't work, we need to alert the police regarding the wolf" I said "Maybe, it is the one who attacked the victim we have in the news yesterday."

"Probably it is the one but Alesha, I am not lying when I said we are real, I'm a werewolf" Cain said with so much seriousness in his eyes.

I was taken aback from what he said. Is he for real?

"Can you turn into a wolf so you can show me it's real?" I challenged, this is making me irritated despite the pain of my cuts, now covered up.

"If I would, then you'll see me naked afterwards" he said and grinned.

"Quit joking around" I managed to say. We just met and he is teasing me, more like annoying me.

"Alesha, I'm telling the truth, I --- "

"Is she awake?" a woman's voice spoke as the door opened and came striding in is a beautiful woman who looks a bit like Cain, well, female version kind of.

She is wearing a green dress, knee cut and long sleeves. She has straight black hair and brown eyes.

"Oh dear, you're lovely" the woman said.

"Mom, this is Alesha" Cain introduced me and he gets up from the bed.

"Hello dear, I'm Samantha, Koren's mother" the woman introduced herself "Are you feeling okay now? We had the doctor check on you to find other wounds you might have had during your attack."

"I - I'm fine now, thank you" I answered, "Are you a werewolf, too?"

Samantha was a bit surprised from what I asked but smiled.

"Yes" she answered.

Oh my! Are they both in on a joke at me but Samantha does not look like she is joking, she's an adult and this guy's mother.

"Mom, she does not know we are real" Cain said.

"Oh" Samantha said, "Sorry about this, but you should know as you're my son's mate."

"She's human, Mom" Cain said.

Samantha appeared surprised but thinking. She looked at me and came nearer then sat on the bedside to which Cain had been.

"Alesha, I'm sorry for breaking this info at such a time like this and you being attacked by one" she said, "I assure you that we are not crazy or anything, and it is real, we are werewolves as vampires do exist living amongst human" she continued, now I wanted to have more air here despite the coolness of the room, "Though they have their own and we mind our own, and it's alright to be shocked right now as we can be some kind of stories you see in fiction movies or read in fiction books."

I was speechless for sometime. I looked at Cain smiling at me and I feel like I want to smack his face and also hold it at the same time. My feelings are starting to be mixed up.

What kind of situation did I put myself into now?

Werewolf? I just don't want to believe it. They are not real. But Samantha is saying they are. Cain said so.
