Lisa had made a mistake.
She had foolishly assumed that she could cut the bag in front of her and get out of the alley without being spotted. But that had just been wishful thinking on her part.
Lisa's only option was to fight and run away. These people might be stronger and more numerous, but they won't chase after Lisa if she manages to get out in the open…hopefully!
"You little bitch! Where do you think you are going?"
Lisa did not wait for any signal before running toward the main road.
However, her malnourished and underdeveloped body was no match against the gigantic and well-developed bodies of the kidnappers.
A rough hand closed around Lisa's arm and pulled her back into the alley. As soon as she was pushed, her body collided with the harsh concrete, and ten pairs of eyes looked at Lisa with an annoyed look.
"Tsk, this bitch almost cost us our lives. Who knew what would have happened if she managed to free that monster from her cage?"
One of the kidnappers spoke before his foot came down to hit Lisa's unprotected stomach.
She managed to protect it in time and lessen the impact of the hit.
Years of suffering under her mother's abuse had taught Lisa a few essential things - always protect your head and your softer areas. Any injury there could be fatal if not treated in time.
Second, if you don't let out too many noises of pain, this torture will eventually get dull enough for her attackers not to bother.
Her mother usually stopped once Lisa stopped moving and responding to her. So that was what Lisa was going to do this time as well - zone out and take her beating.
Lisa's confidence lasted only five minutes before she felt someone grabbing her face and forcing her to turn their way.
"Hmm, Well, what do we have here? This face does not look bad; the body is skinny but well-developed. I think we can fetch a good price for you, girl!"
One of the kidnappers forced Lisa to turn her head, and he looked her up and down with his creepy gaze. It made Lisa's body shiver in disgust, and she tried to push him away.
But she lacked the strength to run away.
Her fate seemed sealed, and Lisa cursed at her decision to come here and help.
'What did I come in here for? All I did was cause myself trouble! Shit! I should have ignored what was happening here and ran for it.'
Regretting what happened was of no use to Lisa. She could only struggle to get free.
The kidnappers went back to dragging the sack, and one of them clutched Lisa's hair to force her back on her feet.
"You are going to follow us now, girl! I am sure you will have fun with your new master soon."
Lisa tried to stop the pain-filled gasp, but she was unsuccessful in holding herself back. Her scalp burned, and Lisa felt her headache worsen.
When she felt things could not get any worse, a loud howl filled the alley.
It made Lisa shiver, and her body became lax and collapsed.
The man holding Lisa's hair similarly reacted, but a curse and anger followed his descent.
"Tsk, when will this bitch learn that there is nothing she can do? This sack is sucking her power dry. Let me teach her a lesson-"
One of the kidnappers decided he had enough of the howling and walked closer to the sack to kick it.
As soon as he was in the range, a huge claw reached out and smacked the kidnapper into a wall. The kidnapper was dead upon impact, causing everyone else to take in a sharp breath.
Lisa watched it happen, and she knew that she should feel fearful! But all she felt was numbness and a serene feeling of peace.
"You! It's your fault! You damaged that sack and freed that beast! Do you understand what you did? You are the reason all of us are going to die!"
The kidnapper yelled as he shook Lisa by her shoulder. His harsh attitude made Lisa's aches much worse.
But he was not able to bully Lisa for long because he was smacked into the wall by the same claw that got the first kidnapper.
Lisa looked up with hazy eyes at a majestic wolf. The creature was muscular and fierce, a little larger than a car.
"Ah, so I will die at the hands of a gigantic wolf? Where did this creature even come from? What is going on? Is this all a dream?"
Lisa could hear screams echoing around her and felt her heart skip a beat at all the noise.
The noises surrounding Lisa finally went quiet, but Lisa did not feel safe. She knew that that giant wolf would target her next.
As expected, that huge body loomed over Lisa's own. She felt tiny lying in front of that muscular body, and her eyes looked at the golden pools before her.
"Is this my end? Can I know what you are before I die? Somehow, it feels unfair to die like this."
She had lost her mind! What else could be the reason for Lisa to say all this when she should be begging for her life?
That huge jaw came close to Lisa's neck, and she wanted to close her eyes. But her stupid body and instincts decided not to do that, and they kept her awake.
Lisa felt the wolf's hot breath against her neck before the pressure of those sharp teeth pierced her neck.
It hurt! The wolf's head was as huge as half Lisa's height, and those canines were sharp.
As quickly as the wolf bit Lisa, it backed off and sniffed her. Lisa felt delirious with pain and bleeding.
She heard footsteps heading her way, causing her to look up. The wolf even took a protective step over her to prevent this new intruder from stepping toward Lisa.
"Are you going to let her bleed out? If you don't want her to die, then get out of my way! Also, I found her first and marked her first! She's mine! You should not have interfered with my claim!"
Lisa looked into a pair of familiar red eyes before closing and falling asleep.
Maybe she will never wake up again, but that will be fine.
