I looked out of the streets as dad drove,
everywhere looked so dull and calm like they
were all grieving.
I sat down recounting all the good times I
have had in this pack what if this becomes
the last time I see this place.
"Anna don't worry you are not gonna be
chosen, you will be back by tomorrow and we
Won't even remember if all this ever
happened" dad said.
I looked at him shocked,I thought he never
cared about my feelings. Why is he trying to
Comfort me now?
"I know you are surprised that I'm saying all
this, but I really do love you, my child and |
know you won't be chosen," dad said.
"Thanks Dad," I said crying.
"It's okay dear" he said as he parked the car in
front of the cave.
"We are here" he said, coming out and also
Coming to open the door for me.
l came Out as I looked at the dark area and the
girls that were already in line, I seemed to be
the last person.
I walked towards them and they gave me a
number and I was number 100, I can't believe
up to 100 girls are in this place.
"Take care my princess" my dad said, hugging
me tightly and | nodded.
I walked Into the line and with that they led us
in.
All the girls seemed so excited about it as
they kept giggling amongst themselves.
"So girls this is it and there is no going back. I
wish you all good luck" the elders said and
lamp they came along with.
I felt Chills run down my spine as they left and
immediately they shut the door of the cave
and everything became quiet suddenly.
The once excited girls started screaming In
horror immediately.
I shivered more, my teeth were shaking and
my body was in an attack.
Suddenly a red light shone into the cave and
that was when I knew that it was already here.
The blood moon and the monster would soon
be here.
"I hate this.
"Am Scared
I wish I knew I wouldn't have taken part in this
ritual.
Those were what many of the girls were
saying.I didn't even know what to do. I just
kept quiet and sat on my ow
The whole girls suddenly became calm and
sat down.
I closed my eyes, opening it and hoping all
this was some kind of bad dream and I Would
wake up from it.
I said a silent prayer to the moon goddess
begging her not to let the monster take me.
"It's here"l heard someone scream and my
eyes snapped open Immediately and that was
it,| saw the wolf standing from afar and
staring at all of us.
It has blue eyes like the ones I saw that day
but today it looks kinda scary.
lgulped terrified at the sight of the wolf
alone.
"Run" I scream and with that I take off towards
the left side.
Iran with all my energy the girls were falling
over each other but I didn't mind all that I was
just too scared to look back.
I ran over all of them falling down and whenl
looked back, the monster was still in the same
position and staring at us all without making
a move.
My blood dried out of my body instantly when
I saw it leap towards us in the darkness.
Hell broke loose as all the girls started
screaming instantly and running Helter
Scared.
In the darkness I saw a small place and
quickly hid there.
"Please moon goddess if I ever escape this I
Swear l would serve you all my life" I prayed
quietly as l closed my eyes.
Everything became so quiet suddenly,and |
felt at peace.
It felt as if the moon goddess answered my
prayers.
l couldn't even open my eyes, I was just so
Scared.
After being in that position for about 30
minutes and not hearing any more noise lI
opened my eyes.
I felt all my blood stop in my body as I saw the
monster in front of me and just staring at me.
I couldn't scream,l couldn't even cry. All|
Could do was stare at his bloodshot eyes,l
thought it was blue.
"Please don't harm me" | cried out as I felt
uncontrollably tears rolled out of my eyes.
"Anna, are you okay?" Dan yelled into my
head through the mindlink.
"The beast is in front of me" l yelled back at
him through the mindlink. "Don't worry, I am coming to get you" he said
and with that I was instantly cut off.
The wolf let out a very loud howl.
I could see the rest of the girls running away
to the deepest side of the cave but I couldn't
even move an inch. I was really scared.
I felt something in my face and that was the
last thing I remembered and I passed out.
*****
I could hear some people laughing and
gisting amongst themselves but I couldn't
open my eyes.
"Wow she's really pretty,the alpha knowS
something good"Theard a guy say.
Damn she's so pretty and curves.
"You should mind the way you talk about her,
you know she's the alpha property and the
alpha doesn't want anyone's to have his eyes
on her"I heard a guy say and they all kept
quiet.
Everywhere became quiet instantly and that
was when I moved a finger .
"She's waking up," I heard someone say.
"Mom" I screamed trying to open her eyes
and they all burst out laughing.
My eyes flew open instantly and I tried
remembering how I got here.
I could Remember that the wolf was in front of
me andl passed out. Did the wolf take me or
did they save me? l asked myself.
I looked around and I discovered that we were
inside a forest and a fire was there to keep us
warm.
Five young guys of about my age were seated
and staring at me.
"Who are you ?"l asked, trying to stand up but that was when I discovered that my hands
were tied.
"Why did you tie my hands?"l screamed
angrily.
"So you won't escape,"one of them said with a
smirk on his face.
"Am not a slave let go of me"| said already at
the verge of tears.
We would see about one said and four of
them started walking away.
The guy who was sitting close to me just
looked at me with pitiful eyes.
"Please help me,let me go. I swear I won't
bother you," I said crying.
"l wish I could butI don't have such power" he
said and looked away.
"Where are they taking me to?" l asked.
"Your master,"he said.
"Who's that?" I asked curiously.
"You would meet him soon and please don't
do anything to annoy him or you would have
yourself to blame" he said.
"Please just let me go,l promise my little
brother that I would be back this morning,my
mom would die at the thought of this,please I
have a family at home, please just let me go
and pick someone else who's willing to do it" I
said crying bitterly.
"Am sorry" he said and he stood up and
started walking away.
Ilaid down softly and now I realize that my life
is ruined.
