Human
Lillian's POV
I've been held up in my lab all day. I tried working but that proved futile as the screams that echoed through the entire manor prevented me from focusing on anything else. Evans and Nora are truly monsters, how can you torture your own child. Rosalyn had filled me in on why they were kidnapped and that just strengthens my long standing belief that these people are absolute monsters. But I guess that's what any human would say about supernatural creatures.
Evans had instructed well more like tortured then threatened me into making a new poison, they figured out that I was reducing the potency of the poisons I created for them to use on Rosalyn and Jermaine, they're basically using them as test subjects to see how it affect them and their wolves so they could sell it. I know they have something big planned with all the whispers i hear of the other wolves talking about taking over some pack, i have no idea what that's about but Evans and Nora seemed pretty excited about it so it must be something sinister.
Finally giving up on working since I can't concentrate, I decided I'd take my evening walk a bit early today. I've been sneaking out every day since we came to this location all those months ago. Going on secret walks is more like scoping out my environment trying to find a way to escape but as you can probably guess it's been unsuccessful.
I managed to make a brief escape three weeks after I was brought here but naturally I was caught since obviously a weak human girl can't outrun a wolf that's triple her size and way faster than she is. Even so I didn't give up. I kept on doing my small scouting’s whenever I got the chance and so far I've memorized these woods down to a T but I still can't find an escape route as I'm surrounded by monsters.
Even if I manage to escape the manor I'd run into some other wolf's territory and from what I've learnt over the past 6 years I've been Evans captive is that wolves are very territorial and if a human is to walk unto their lands let’s just say it would be devastating for me. We're surrounded by about five packs, we sit in the centre of the forest expertly hidden by the trees and this area is also uncharted or what they'd call no-man’s land so pack wolves don't come this far which makes it the perfect hideout if i do say so myself, the very definition of hiding in plain sight.
I quietly make my way down the long hall way opposite to where the torture room is, as I've been calling it. Silently i tiptoed down the stairs and dash across the hall, i open the door leading to the basement, once inside i flick on my tiny flashlight i always have on me and from memory i walked up to the tall shelf of perfectly aged wine and pulled the small lever beside it that acts as a coat rack then stood back as the shelf moved revealing a hidden passageway, the day i found this place i sent a silent prayer blessing the soul of whoever made this house.
Making sure not to make any noise I walk in and pull the lever on the other side of the wall, once again hiding the pathway then I walk down the slightly lit passage until I come up to the familiar old door that leads to the back of the manor and into the woods. The door is blocked by bushes so unless you're definitely looking you can't see it which is a plus for me since it's my little secret. I quickly ran to the woods, first going to that small field which had wild herbs growing there. I could use them to make some medication for Rosalyn and Jermaine later. It's quite a distance from the manor but Evans and Nora won't be done with their 'playtime' as they call it, until about another hour or two which gives me some time to do my thing and be back before anyone notices.
I'm so busy picking the right ingredients I'll need. I hadn't noticed the huge black and white wolf creeping up on me.
