CHAPTER FIVE

WILLOW POV

I almost made it to my second to last class for the day when Max's mate called out for me to wait up, so to keep the peace I of course, waited.

Once she caught up to me I noticed all the friends that began to mill around, funny it didn’t take long for her to collect all the wanna be's from around the school to back her ass up.

Still trying not to ripple the waters at all, I stupidly agreed to go for coffee with them. The part I didn’t realise was where I understood coffee after school, but oh, how wrong I was.

With giggles, they grabbed my arms and turned toward the carpark, making our way to a very large SUV. It was dark grey with dark tinted windows.

Opening the door, they encouraged me into the back seat, I reluctantly climbed in and sat watching as a few of them also climbed into the vehicle. The car started, and music filled the space, I was trying to hear the conversations going on around me.

A few minutes later, I braved asking the question, playing on my mind, “Are we going to the Diner?” My question met with a very loud “NO!” and the atmosphere in the vehicle plummeted , now feeling cold and suffocating as it leached around me. A hood then placed over my head made me quieten myself and focus on what I could hear, hoping one of them would say something useful.

I could smell the air change when they opened the doo. It smelt of fuels, oils, chemicals, not of fresh air and fresh grass like at school. Quickly I tried to mind-link Ally, not sure if she heard me or not.

Dragged out of the car someone removing the hood from my head. Realising that we were in the industrials, there are many abandoned factories and businesses here, but I am grateful we are still in the pack boundaries.

Moments later she (the Bimbo) was in front of me, with a sinister look on her face. Two of her girls grabbed my arms as she began a tirade of pummelling hits from her began. Slamming into my gut, chest, head then there seemed to be more feet, hands, fists, all while they screamed obscenities at me, telling me how a vial wolf I am, that I would never be good enough for their Alpha.

The assault felt like it went on for hours, it could have. I felt the temperature in the air change as the sun started its descent toward the horizon, so by my guess they were at it for hours. I lost consciousness long before they stopped.

The pain in my body was extreme, and now with my wolf to help heal me, I figure I will be fine, all but healed before anyone finds me. I have wanted my wolf for so long, but now I wish that she could leave healing me until someone knew about what happened.

Guessing its late, I can hear the night insects waking, coming to life louder and louder, their songs calling to each other. I can't move I feel like I am pinned to whatever I am lying on, after trying to open my eyes, now knowing they are swollen shut, I cant feel my lips, so they are probably smashed to hell, and my body is just burning with pain.

Knowing I am in and out of consciousness makes it hard to keep track of how long I lie here, but I haven't been able to get my wolf to talk to me and considering I am still in such an amount of pain even she has decided to not help such a weak wolf.

A short time later I heard a vehicle and male voices, then heard one of them say “What the Fuk did you do?” then there is a gasp and some murmuring so I figured help would be here soon.

My body now feeling lifted and jostled around, then I was placed into a car, hopeful that this was the help I was hoping for. Unable to stay alert, I drifted in and out of consciousness , hearing snippets of conversations being had about me. “We should take her to a hospital,” at the sound of those words I slipped back into darkness.

I felt being lifted and I felt tingling along my back and legs as I am lifted, know that while I don’t want to be near him, he is helping me. Taking a few minutes of comfort, I am placed down onto a cold hard uncomfortable surface, letting out a groan, I attempt opening my eyes again, nothing happens, but I can feel my hot tears streaming from my useless swollen eyes.

“Right, lets go before someone sees us, or asks questions as to our where abouts," these were the words I heard as they trailed off, it didn’t feel like a hospital, but what do I know.

I feel even more helpless as I lay here I cant help but to ask the Moon Goddess, why, why is this happening to me? Did she feel she made a mistake by pairing me with my wolf, should I have not survived?

Feeling the sun rising and warming the earth around me, I still cannot open my eyes and my wolf is still silent, the pain I have that rips through my body feeling like it's on a constant loop.

I don’t recognise any smells, or odours, so I cant place where I am. I have very little ability to smell, aside from the blood that fills my nose and mouth.

I listen as quietly as I can, trying to work out if anything sounds familiar or even if I can work out what I am near or where I am.

I am disheartened again when nothing sounds or smells familiar, pleading internally within myself, my exhaustion causing me to sway in and out of consciousness making everything fuzzy, each time I rouse I am having to work out everything again.

Only left with one option that is to wait until I can at least open my eyes, or move, or anything really. My throat is so dry swallowing is impossible, even breathing is hard athough that is more to the injuries I am currently wearing, but no moisture isn't helping. I lie back down its easier than trying to stay sitting.

I know I have been here at least one day, I felt the sun, it seems now the shade has seemed to take over again, I use all the effort I have to try to sit up, a long, slow, painful process, rolling to my side before pushing myself up. Using my hands I feel around my face again, wincing with the pain, I know that if my wolf ever speaks to me again she will be able to heal me.

After what now only felt like a short time later I am surprised to hear footsteps, there seems to be a couple sets, my nose is still having problems so for now I have to rely on my hearing and hope that the next person I encounter isn’t hell bent on hurting or abandoning me further.

The footsteps feel as though they stop next to me, the voices still muffled, I know that they are talking hushed tones, but I am still having no luck hearing what they are saying.

“Hello, you are hurt. Do you know how you got here? Who did this to you?” questions coming in quick succession, i manage to shake or nod my head, trying to look toward the voice, giving some hope they think I can see and that I know what I am answering, the intense pain continuing to rattle around in my head making me squint and hiss.

Still trying to squash down my fear, I try to present as though I am not afraid at all. Then strong arms pick me up and begin moving, after a short while I am placed in the back of a car, a blanket placed over me, then someone sat in alongside my head, proceeding to lift my head onto their lap as he gave directives to the driver.

Making it to the hospital and being carried then placed on a bed, I felt like it was under attack, with all the poking , prodding and people seeming to scurry around me.

When someone asks the question as to who bought me in, a male voice acknowledged as the person who did that.

The next words I hear have my head spinning, the nurse taking notes replied, “Very well then sire, we will keep you updated.”

The word repeating itself in my mind as i lost my battle to regain my consciousness yet again “SIRE?"
