Ashley's POV
It was the middle of the night when I woke up to the sounds of howling. I rubbed my eyes as I sat up and quickly realised Alpha was no where to be seen. I searched my room frantically and my bathroom. I was beginning to get really worried.
Another loud howl came from outside. It must be Alpha, maybe he got out and couldn't get back in. I speed walk out of my room and take the stairs one by one, taking my time. Once I'm off the stairs I quickly walk to the back door.
I open the door, but I find no Alpha. I look towards the woods at the far end of my backyard and see two yellow eyes staring at me from the forest. The darkness covering him but his bright eyes. I walk out onto the back porch and start to call out to him.
"ALPHA!!" I shout. "ALPHA COME ON BUDDY! COME BACK TO BED!"
The yellow eyes don't move so I decide to walk towards him and step onto the cold wet grass. I'm halfway to the forest when I hear a low growl. I look up and see two more sets of eyes join the other two.
I start to hyperventilate when I realise it wasn't Alpha that I was looking at. They start to walk towards me but I don't move from being frozen by fear.
They growl and step out of the forest, the moonlight shining on them showing me they are wolves. One is grey the other is brown. They bare their fangs at me while they growl and that's when my fight of flight kicks in.
I try to run back to the house but forgot that I'm still super weak and end up falling over the first step I take. One of the wolves jumps on top of me knocking the air out of me and claws my back.
A blood curdling scream leaves my mouth at the pain, then all of a sudden the weight of the wolf is ripped off me. I look over my shoulder and see a huge black wolf ripping and scratching the two wolves apart. I turn to look back at the house and start to crawl. Hearing the sounds of growls and yelps makes me want to look back but I focus on crawling to my house for safety.
Crawling has proven quite difficult and painful from the giant scratch on my back. Just as I reach the back porch it has gone quiet. I turn around to check but my eyes land on a huge black wolf coming towards me.
I start to hyperventilate again and freeze due to my overwhelming fear also again. I fucking hate freezing in situations like this. I'm surprised I'm not dead already. My breathes come short and I feel like I'm about to pass out.
Just before the wolf reaches me I get a clear view of him from the moonlight. He looks like a giant version of my dog Alpha. My eyes drift to the collar around his neck that his name is stitched into. 'Alpha' it reads. What the fuck!
Just before I could say anything, sounds of bones cracking come from him, his muzzle starts to shrink and his fur starts to disappear beneath his skin. His whole body morph's into a human male.
My mouth is agape and my eyes are wide as saucers while looking up at the man that was just my dog a few minutes ago. He hurriedly walks towards me and kneels beside me, his hand hovering over my back while I look up at him over my shoulder.
"I'm so sorry I wasn't here sooner baby." He says with concern lacing his voice.
I was wishing this was a weird dream. But him speaking just made this all too real. From the overwhelming shock, confusion and pain, my head falls onto the porch as I faint. My eyes close as I drift off into the darkness.
