I quickly tried to run into the trees close to the border, there's a stream there so I can get a quick wash after I've done what I want to do and before anyone can realise or try to act I'd be long gone, but once I get to the stream I see Kyle there facing the water with his hands crossed on his chest looking into the river and I move to turn before he notices but he speaks before I can even turn.
"Adriana you know I can smell you, I knew you were coming here before you made it to this place, we're still linked remember"? why is he talking to me like that, like we're old acquaintances or something, is he drunk. "It seems Leila and your mother were right you were pregnant".
"I just want to bury my baby, please I promise I won't try anything, just let me bury my baby". I cry out hoping he buys the half lie and doesn't figure out the actual reason I'm out here. but I guess I overestimated him cause he actually believes and takes me across the pack border, at least I won't bury my baby in the pack grounds. he actually dug a hole with his claws and I put my baby in it. I don't know why he's doing this but it doesn't mean I've forgotten everything he did to me because if not for him my baby would still be alive and at that
moment thinking that I see red and I grab the rock closest to me and smack him in the head so hard he passed out.
If they didn't have anything against me before now they do. attempted murder of the alpha. I don't look back I run like hell, far away from there untill I don't feel the connection between us anymore then I look for a stick and rock since I don't have any claws or knives and I start scratching and trying to pluck out the mark in my neck. by morning I'm covered in blood, what's remaining of my shirt is soaked and sticking to my body. I think it's cause I lost a lot of blood but I'm loosing consciousness and I hope this place is far away enough from the pack that they won't find me.
While I'm blinking in and out of
consciousness I hear voices, I can't make out what they're saying but I'm just praying it's not Kyle and the rest of the moonfang pack that's found me. I used to think dying would be painful but right now I don't feel anything just numb and like I'm falling into a void, a very deep black void and the deeper I fall the voices fade.
I wake up in a room, wait no. I'm blinking my eyes rapidly now to be sure I'm not mistaken. I'm in a freaking cell and though it's better than where I was kept before, I check to make sure I wasn't dragged back to the moonfang pack and it's not it. but why did those people put me in a cell, I was bleeding to my freaking death, I thought I would die, I thought I was dying.
"Good you're up" a very mean looking behemoth of a man, no wolf is looking at me like he could be doing anything other than breathing the same air as me.
He opens the cell and tells me to get out in a very mean way, while I'm trying to push myself up I notice that my wound has been patched up and clean and there's a bandage on it, if I were a normal wolf it would have healed by now but because I'm so weak it's going to heal slowly like I'm human. on our way out I notice that their dungeon is empty and I try asking him questions on the way like who's the alpha, what pack is this, when can I leave and why was I put in a cell and not the hospital. but of course he doesn't even act like I'm beside him, he treats me like I'm a ghost.
Once we leave the dungeon we emerge in a canopy of trees and it's so beautiful it looks like a garden, a very large garden with a canopy of trees surrounding the clearing, you wouldn't think this is where they keep their prisoners.
Once we leave the clearing I can't help but look back, already missing the scenery. this is crazy I've been taken prisoner by a pack I know nothing about and I'm gawking at their garden like a fool, I should be plotting ways to escape by looking around for any loopholes they have but I've not seen any wolf loitering around and we just keep going straight, we're going straight into a thicket of bushes and I'm beginning to realize how utterly stupid I was to not put up a fight and calmly follow this brooding stranger into the forest where no one can hear my screams and I won't be able to put up a fight because of how small and weak I am.
My heart is beginning to sing again in fear that I'm going to get killed after I escaped death, I don't think a rock would do anything to this monster of a man, his arms are bigger than my head. oh noo I should have been more cautious and mapped the routes we were taking. I can't breathe, I think I'm dying again. I ca-- "Would you stop with all that wheezing it's getting on my nerves". he growls so loudly and I know it's now he's going to chew my head out, literally. I try to open mouth and talk but I can't, I fall to the ground and tears fill my eyes from the pain, why can't I breathe. I hear an "oh s**t". and fastened footsteps and all of a sudden I'm lifted from the ground.
I think I'm being carried, I'm not sure but it smells so good and I just want to eat and lick the scent. now my breathing is stable but I'm starting to lose consciousness but even then I don't forget the scent of Ambergris and vanilla with a hint of cinnamon.
