Chapter 13: Thank You For Saving Me

Tara POV

I tried to get to my feet but all my limbs felt weak, like they were slowly turning into liquid. The beast slowly began creeping my way, he snapped his jaw at me, his sharp canines shining against the light from above. I laid helplessly on the ground.

I desperately tried to move my body but I was frozen. My chest rose and fell frantically, the adrenaline coursing through my veins. My eyes darted all around trying to find an escape but from what I saw there was nowhere to run.

The wolf was bigger than I was and much faster than I would ever be. Its red eyes stared at me, taking me in. It tilted its head to the side, analyzing every inch of my body. I shuddered under its gaze feeling the fear make its way deep into my bone marrow.

Move, I begged my body but it wasn’t responding.

The creature lowered itself, its eyes taking on a devilish red tint. It lowered itself ready to pounce and I closed my eyes.
