Seen Without a Mask

The next morning, Ekr felt pain all over his body. He turned a little, he felt the hardness of the floor. That made him to open his dark grey eyes. Ekr quickly sat up, he wondered where he was. He held his chest but it was full of scratches. Ekr frowned as he went deep into his thoughts trying to figure out what actually happened to him.

The door opened, he snapped out of his thoughts to see who just walked in. Ekr forgot he didn't have a mask on his face, he stares at the beautiful girl that just walk in to the room. For a minute he thought he was dreaming. He has never seen such a beauty whole his life.

" Hi, Ella said holding a glass of water. Ekr touched his face only to realize he didn't have his mask on. This was the first time an outsider saw his face without a mask to cover. This made him angry, he stood up quickly and turned to face the wall. He was embarrassed because his chest was also bare. This surprised Ella, She thought he would reply but he didn't. " Who are you? she asked politely.

" How dare you look directly into my eyes!! he said in a cocky voice while facing the wall.

" oh sir, we found here yesterday morning. we were waiting for you to wake up so we could ask you how you got here and what happened to you, she told him.

Ekr went Quiet, he remembers what happened. He walked towards the window so he could Jump out and leave. But then he realises that no one knew he was a werewolf and they shouldn't know about that. Humans go out through the door, he thought. " where's is the door! he hissed.

" you want to leave? Pa! she called and Pedro walked in.

" He's awake, Hey young man. Where are you from? why is he facing the other side? Pedro asked Ella.

" he's acting strange pa and looks angry too. Do you think something bad had happened to him?

" I can hear you! he said angrily. I want to leave show me the door!!

" Hey! do you realize we helped you! you could have died if not for my daughter. A little thank you would do.

" Humans, he muttered. He wanted to turn to look at them both before he leaves but he couldn't. He jumped out through the window. The window was really high from the ground. This scared Pedro and Ella.

They quickly went to check if he got hurt or something but he wasn't there.

" This is strange, Pedro said as he suspect something strange about him.

" But when can I finally step outside even for a short time pa please. I promise never to go very far, or I can go with you to your inn I could be of help please pa.

" No Ella! this kingdom has so many dark secrets. Am protecting you from harm. Especially when I think about what happened to your mother!

" but you said she died of an illness after she gave birth to me. Beside I will be with out there please I just want to see humans who are like me please pa.

" come help me with the new healing herb am about to make. He changed the topic just so she should forget about going outside. I will teach you how to make certain herb medicines. Ella hopes she could see the handsome gentleman again, but she didn't know how or if she was going to see him again.
