687 Words
Leah’s POV
I woke up feeling so rested and comfortable which was weird after the last so many months, I was sure how long it had been. I opened my eyes and nothing was familiar. I immediately panic! Where was I? The room was bright mostly white colours the bed was huge and I could see four doors and a large window along one of the walls. All the doors were closed except one that seemed to be an office. My first reaction was to jump out of the bed. I looked at myself and I was wearing black leggings and a loose long sleeved white shirt. Had I been sold? My mind was racing. I didn't dare touch the doors after being in the cell with silver doors the idea of touching doors scared me. I was weak, confused and scared and I scrambled into the corner and pulled my legs to my chin and put my head on my knees. I had a view into the room I thought was an office and saw a man sitting at the desk. Something about him made me feel safe, he had light brown hair that was long on top but short on the sides. I didn't trust my instincts though. I remained in this spot so I could watch him. I didn't trust him yet. After a few minutes he looked up at me and I dropped my head. Quietly he rose from his spot and slowly came towards me. He stops at the door way as I whimpered
“Hey, it’s okay I’m not going to hurt you” He said, his voice was heavenly. “I’m Logan and you're at the Eclipse Pack. Are you hungry or hurt?” he asked. I didn't say anything, I just started to cry. He tried to get closer and I just started whimpering and crying more and shaking. Darkness surrouned me as I panicked. I didn't hear him move anymore when I peered up he was sitting on the floor against the wall near the door looking at me with these sad eyes. I wanted to trust him but everything that had happened made it impossible for me. After a little while he stood up and went to his office and a few minutes later came back with a tray of food. There were sandwiches, soups, salad, deli meat and cheese. He placed it in the middle of the room on the floor with some water and walked back into his office. Once I felt it was safe I crawled over and ate a bit smelling everything to make sure there was no poison, oh who was I kidding I was starving I didn’t care.
After I was full I made my way back into my corner and curled up and fell asleep. I don't know how long I was out for but when i woke up he was standing in the doorway again and the tray was gone. “The bathroom is over there if you need it” he said I looked at the closed door he hinted at and started shaking. “Hey it’s okay, I'll open the door you can go in at any time, nothing will hurt you here”. He made his way to the door and opened it and walked back to the doorway. “Use anything you want in there, feel free to take a shower, or bathe your safe here”. I watched as he returned to his desk.
After a few minutes I crawled out of his sight line and went into the bathroom. It was the first time I had seen myself in a mirror in months. I didn't recognize myself, I was pale, my hair had lost its shine and I had lost at least 15 pounds. I took my time taking a shower something I hadn't experienced in a long time. Once I finished I came out of the bathroom and found a new set of clothes on the bed. I quickly changed and noticed another tray of food on the floor so I carefully went over ate and went back to my corner until I fell asleep again.
