Chapter 4 - ****BEYOND ME****

Due to the close proximity, his scent of musk filled my nostrils. I unconsciously close my eyes inhaling as much of his scent, thánatos body pressed against mine, not too long ago pain had me by the waist only to be pulled back by a bored looking thánatos wrapping his hand on my shoulder blades.

i have never had a guy hold me this close not even in practice, still at loss of words the feel of his skin against mine was oddly addictive, my body hummed like i was getting energy from him.

Thánatos speaks letting go of his hold on me. "Pain create a portal lets leave before they get to us...and she's off limits".

My heart flutters, but I crush that butterfly before it could take a flight.

I'm not about to fall in a rabbit hole, wrapping my palm tightly on the strap of my backpack to get ahold of myself.

'What are they' I thought to my self after I recovered from thánatos body proximity,

they kept appearing out of no where and now a portal is this some joke.

Thoughts of running away crossed my mind but those were quickly dismissed once I reminded myself I didn't know what the where capable of.

The loud screech of an animal could be heard, I couldn't even get a word out before a cloud of black and grey smoke blocked my vision.

We where in a forest just like the one I had dreamt about, my legs felt wobbly I was scared, are they here to end me why don't I feel threatened maybe am sick who on earth gets comfortable around strangers,I really am odd.

"What happened pain why are we in the sunless realm" a new voice I hadn't even noticed spoke as my gaze falls yet on another breathtaking female.

"I don't know" pain shrugs seeming unbothered by the fact we are all in a burnt out forest.

"She brought us here isn't it obvious" scars vicious voice rang through the forest as she pointed at me, what is her problem with me, furthermore what are they saying.

I didn't do no nothing in-fact, I have no idea why I am silently following them like a lost puppy.

"I did nothing" I defended.

Yet again scar spoke up "Sure...we just appeared in the sunless realm we had been avoiding" she snorts, sarcasm dripping off her words.

"Cut it out scar she didn't do it purposely, her vision brought us here or something else" zoi trials off staring at the black wolf from before what the actual hell.

The wolf sniffed the air it's red eye sizing me up like before.

Unconsciously I stepped behind thánatos grabbing his shirt like my life depended on it, he stifled by my action looking down at me with a raised brow

"You can't defend yourself" he seethes with a raised brow.

"Well? of course I can't" I whisper yell, I can't even kill a bug I would run for my life.

"Why are we whispering" thánatos mocked my whispering his lips raised slightly from amusement.

I rolls my eyes at his new formed amusement.

"I don't know! not to gain its attention any further". A heart warming laugh excapes his mouth before he glared down at me did he think I was kidding I can't' even speak up for myself.

"Ti férnei ton psiló iyko edó" zoi's  velvety voice took all my attention, the foreign language fell smoothly from her mouth as she approaches the vicious wolf like it's her pet.(what bring the high wolf here)

The big wolf grunts, to say am scared is an understatement I am terrified of the whole situation, I have no plans of letting go of thánatos.

"Ereípia, aftoí fíloi mou syngrómi gia to baráz, pésame Sti gi sou"

(Ruins,These are my friends sorry for barging, we stumbled upon your land)

Zoi spoke again, everyone seemed to understand what she was saying I felt left out.

Blinking rapidly as I watch the wolf stand on legs, its fur disappearing as brown skin replaced it, there stood a man my breath hitches, I felt myself falling as I lost conscious.
