Encounter

Emilia's P.O.V

I couldn't believe this. Never in my wildest dreams would I believe my sister would do such a thing. Was this how poor and desperate we've become?

Would mum, dad, and bro have wanted this? I doubt. No wonder she didn't care to give me the details of the town.

Now I understand what she meant when she said '...I heard they're really nice, although …. Most of them are not just like us'.

When she said this, the thought of her bringing us to such a place swam into my mind, but I had brushed it off as I thought she wouldn't dare, but she actually did.

I didn't realise I was crying until a drop of tear stuck on my eyelashes, and I had to flutter then away. I could hear my sister, Cassie, calling out to me, but there was no way I was going back. At least not now. I ran into the woods, as I got tired of seeing people staring at me with so much interest..

I kicked up the dry leaves, making a huge amount of noise in the once quiet woods, but I didn't care.

I'm sure from the long distance I've walked, half an hour had passed already. The sky was becoming clooudy and dark. A rain was about to fall heavily, I guess. I sighed as I resumed walking aimlessly. If only I knew my way out of here..

I sighed again. I heard the sounds of rustled leaves from a distance, and I paused. It was from a distance so it couldn't have been me.

I made sure to stay still as I listened, but there was nothing. When I was about to resume walking,I heard it again, but before I could process it, something sprang out, and unto me, making me lose my balance. I screamed as I made eye contact with this huge creature with yellow eyes. My brain stuttered for a moment as my eyes couldn't take in what I saw. Every part of my body froze. The beast was on top of me. A beast whose face and hands were covered with long dense and grey hair like that of a wolf. The creature was huge and gross with matted hair.. It stared at me with it's wrinkly face in a pure evil way. It let out a low growl, as it's claws dug deep into my shoulder, and despite it being a warm day, my body became icy cold.

I couldn't make a move, a primal scream choking in my throat. The claws sank deeper, and it was already peircing through my bone when another creature dived it, knocking if off my body.

Although it was no longer on me, I could still feel it's weight on me, it's claws..

I didn't want to look at my shoulders, but the amount of liquid dripping, I could tell I was loosing lots of blood. The two beasts fought, clawing and growling at each other. I observed that the second one had attractive white skin, unlike the other, although it's paws were thick black..

It finally shooed the other off, then turned to me. I moved backwards in fear, but it came even closer. It's eyes were red but slowly changed to black. All of a sudden, a man was crouching in front of me..

Correction! A beautiful man. He had broad shoulders, jet black hair that was slightly disheveled, and toned abs. Yes. He was shirtless.

Damn! He was beyond sexy. " Are you okay?". His voice was sweet and soothing. Damn, I could fall in love with this guy..

"No..". I shouted, startling him. Actually, the no was not to answer his question, but to stop myself from drooling. He was a werewolf for crying out loud. These creatures I've despised for two years now. I looked away as he gave me a peircing, questioning gaze. He tried to touch me, but I moved my hands away, and he sighed. "You're bleeding". He pointed at my shoulders.

"Leave it". I said in form of an order, and I forced myself up. I could tell he was staring at me pathetically, and I gritted my teeth as the pain through my bones. I swayed, loosing balance, but he quickly caught me in a firm grip. I pushed him away, and dragged my feet. Funny enough, I didn't even know my way forward or bavkward, so either ways I was going to get lost..

"You must be one of the newbies". He said as he watched my conflicted ponder..

'News spread fast'. I thought. For a moment, I had forgotten that I had just been clawed by an animal, until wind blew at the open wounds and it stung badly.

I blindly searched for a tree to press my hands against, but I found none, making me stumble, the pain Increasing.

Suddenly, my legs were off the floor, and I was in the arms of my enemy, a creature I loathed. I wanted to struggle, but my body was too wrak for a resistance.

"Stupid". I heard him muttered underneath his breath. I forced my eyes open, trying to at least fall asleep in the arms of an unknown. He was walking in fast strides, and soon, I began to hear voices

I didn't know the house exactly, but he took me there. An old woman came out, with a guy in his early thirties followed.

"Alpha D". They both acknowledged his presence. So he was alpha D huh?.

"Treat her". He said to them.

"Viktor's men?". The guy asked so casually..

"Conrad's". Alpha D replied. I couldn't keep my body conscious any longer. "Take her back once she's treated". Was the last thing I heard before I slowly drifted into the abyss of Neverland.
