(Lizzy)
“Mom! Mom, where are you!!” I shouted at the top of my voice, dropping everything I had in my hands. I was desperate to find a way out of the room. It was scorching hot with smoke everywhere that I had to cover my nose if I wanted to be alive.
I had to get out when I rushed to the window which had been open before I found it closed and fire had blocked my escape route. Everything was burning, including my bed.
I was restless single tried to keep my oxygen intake at bay, but I couldn't hold my breath as I coughed violently
’M…mom…mom…cough…cough” it was unbearable to breathe with the smoke circulating. I stood in the middle scanning for an exit door, but one thing clicked into my mind.
“The…the… bathroom” I muttered and rushed back to my bathroom. I slammed the door shut and ran to the window. I felt relieved, knowing I found a way out of my room. If I managed to escape through my bathroom window, I would rush back to the front entrance and see if I could save my mom. I didn't know what was happening to her or who set our house on fire, but saving my mom was my top priority.
“Ahh!” I groaned as I stood on top of the closed toilet and tried to lift the window. It was jammed. I rarely opened the window down, but I didn't recall it ever being stuck or hard to open.
“Ahh!” I tried again using all my strength, but it was locked, more like from the outside. I jumped down and looked around for anything to use to break the glass, and my blurry eyes spotted a baseball bat in a corner. I smiled as I hurried to get it, knowing I was keeping it for Skylar. I took it from her and kept it in the bathroom.
“This should do. I'm running out of time” I said and climbed back up. I shrugged my shoulders and got ready to break the window. I made the first hit and to my luck, a crack formed. I raised the basement bathroom high and swung it forward, and this party broke. I smiled as I shifted around as I started hitting it, lighting it to make a big hole, and once I was successful. I tossed the baseball on the floor and tried to see if I could fit right through.
The glass pieces were everywhere, but I mind as I rushed myself up and slowly drove my head through the wall and peeked outside to see where I was going to land. It was rather dark. The back side of our house was dark because of the thick forest ahead. The thick bushes lay just down below and when I tilted my head to the left, I saw smoke coming out, and down there were footsteps. I snuck my head slightly inside not sure who it was but just then I heard noises.
“Is she in there…what the fuck… I told you to burn her mother alive!” it was Brett's angry voice that spoke. He sounded so angry that my back hair rose. I narrowed my eyes to use my wolf vision and I gasped when I saw three large wolves scanning the perimeter.
“Beta…she's in there, but I think the female ran away” I heard another male and I knew they came for me but how did they set my house on fire without finding me? I was in the bathroom, they were werewolves and could easily lure me out just by my scent. Unfortunately, I had to go as soon as possible. I was lucky the wolves didn't sniff me out, or who knew what they would have done.
It seemed like they were after my mom. If they caught my mom, then it would be better to lure me out; hence I quietly got down where I was and ran to the door I was about to open it when the bathroom door opened and someone opened from outside and scared me as I got ready to attack, but I was shocked to see my mom.
“Sweetie, they are here…we need to go…cough…now, “my mom said as she grabbed me by the arm and led me away. She handed me a wet towel to cover my nose and I did as I was told, and we got to my room. By now I couldn't see anything. The smoke was burning my eyes to the point where I was unable to jump up the fire blocking the door, but then I heard more growling of wolves. My mom and I jumped at the same time and fell to the other side.
“Mom…how…” I was about to ask how the house caught on fire, but she dragged me away before I could finish. She seemed tired and her body weak. She was my mom who loved me a lot and as we moved through the fire which had spread everywhere and blocked all the exits. I knew they wanted to kill us. This was the best way to murder someone without making it seem obvious, and my mom and I fought to find a way it.
I didn't know what to do, but I could feel myself losing strength. We tried to open the kitchen door, but the fire was more there. We couldn't you we the front door knowing the enemies were outside waiting for us.
“Mom… I…please…you have to go…maybe the bathroom window is still intact,” I said as I tried to keep myself from passing out. By now my lungs were filled with excess waste air which was bad for me.
“We'll get out…come, sweetie,” she said and led me away. The entire house was burning like some wildfire had spread out. I was so tired that even shifting into wolf form was difficult. How bad was one night? It was long, unlike most nights, and it wasn't ending until it destroyed everything I cherished. I wanted my mom safe regardless of what, but she was more concerned about my safety. She wasn't a werewolf nor did she have special abilities like me, but she was my mom who loved me a lot. The thought of her bravery gave me enough courage as we started breaking the dining room door.
The house had three exit doors in total. The front door, the kitchen door, and the dining room door which we barely opened, and now I was using a chair to smash the glass down while my mom had rushed back to the kitchen to drench more towels in water
“Ahh!” I screamed as I used all my strength to hit the door until I saw a ray of hope. I didn't stop even when my body was crying. I was drenched in my sweat, and even the burns I suffered in the fire didn't mean anything. The fire was nearly spreading out to the dining room; hence I had to hurry and open it. This was our last hope and when I hit the door several times it burst open, and I dropped the chair which nearly broke.
I exhaled loudly, feeling drained, but I smiled as a funny feeling engulfed me.
“Mom…it's…it's open” I shouted with shortened breaths just as my mom rushed back and handed me the wet towel
“Quickly, let's go…” she said, and we peeked out the dark green bush ahead to see if it was clear and yes. There was no one there.
“Let's go mom” I rushed out as quietly as possible, doing everything possible not to get caught. The night was something else as we ran down the deep dark forest with very tall trees which made it impossible for me to run. I was so tired, but we ran as if our lives depended on it.
I could hear loud growls and howls disappearing in the darkest of night, and I knew they would follow us. We had nothing on us. Our clothes and everything were burned down. I felt helpless. We left Midnight pack as rogues.
*Two weeks later*“Wait, are you certain this is okay?”“It's fine dummy…you look lovely, and those curves come out nice”I didn't even know if asking Skylar how I was looking was a good idea. I scanned myself in the mirror and the thing I was wearing was far too skimpy. Not like it was showing any skin, but it was too tight and lady-like. I moved away from the mirror, feeling irritated.All I wanted was something different to wear for my job interview, and Skylar was coaxing me to wear a dress. Not just a dress, but a designer dress that stuck to my body like a second skin. It reached mid-thigh-high and the shoulders were exposed, but I loved the fact that it hugged my body perfectly well and brought out my curves, just like Skylar said.“It's just…too…revealing… I'm trying not to catch any attention, but now I look like some night pole dancer” I whined as I turned back to the mirror, hating what was happening.It had been two weeks I'd been trying to forget what happened, the traged
“This is ridiculous…you could have killed him” Skylar made a low yell, holding my hand as we walked to the entrance of the club, leaving the parking lot behind. I frowned, not sure what she meant by I could have killed him“He was a jerk… He deserved what he got," I said and shrugged her hand away and fixed my jacket. We just arrived at the bar. Some insane guy grabbed my ass when I got out of the car and I nearly choked him to death for the mistake he made. His friends were laughing when he was busy making some insane sexual remarks, and he had to pay for it. I kicked him hard between his legs and punched him a few times just to give him a little taste not to mess with just any woman he saw. I asked his friends if they had any words for me like their friend groaning in pain on the ground, but they ran away. Skylar was shocked by my outburst and had not stopped lecturing me about staying controlling my wolf anger.“If you killed him….they would have arrested you,” she said, sounding
(Lizzy)“Sky, this is too much…how can I do this when…when I know nothing about this work” I complained as I tried to walk in heels? The skirt was just too small and the crop shirt which had a deep V-line worsened it because the back too was exposed. My hair was styled in a sexy way, and they applied heavy makeup with sexy red lipstick and eyeshadow which brought out my round amber eyes“Just chill Liz…this man loves nice toys… I wouldn't go because I'm not as pretty as you…so breathe in and out and go for it” she said with a frown as she tried to fix the little skirt I had dragged down and looked rather awkward.“Stop it, and why do I have lingerie in there?” I stopped to ask immediately as we left the elevator and I noticed that sinister, evil smirk tugging at the corners of her thin lips. I wanted to cry and die right there and then“Well baby girl…in case the beast asks you to strip… I heard he likes seeing naked bodies… especially hot and sexy women like you” Skylar said in the m
(Lizzy)I woke up to the sound of a vibrating phone against my ear. I was always irritated because of loud sounds. “Ah, Sky…take it away,” I groaned while trying to move. To be honest, I ached everywhere. My body didn't feel like mine. Even moving my legs felt like I was beaten to a pulp.“Ah,” I tried shifting to my sides. Moving my arms and legs while trying to open my eyes felt heavy. Once I was lying on my back, I tried opening my eyes. Fighting the hangover had been restless.“W-where am I?” I muttered only to end up coughing due to my throat being dry. “Oh no,” I was startled once I opened my eyes fully and found myself in a strange room. I quickly sat upright only to notice I was in bed naked. Fear washed over me, hoping the worst didn't happen.“No, no Lizzy…you did not just do it,” I was disturbed that I nearly jumped out of bed when I felt a sharp pain between my legs. A sudden realization hit me. The fear I had always, was losing my virginity to a total stranger.“Think, t
(Lizzy) No! This wasn't happening, I was in four and unable to shift back to human. Some people were banging on the door. Asking if someone was inside. I was screwed. This was it, I was going to get exposed for sure. 'What to do' I tried galloping on the window seal hoping to jump outside. Unfortunately, I couldn't get my paws working. They were slippery, and the window was locked, 'great, just count one to ten Lizzy. You'll get it,” I thought to myself while licking my paw a little. Circling the room, I tried to think of the shifting process. Unfortunately, that wasn't working. Before I could think about something else, the door flew open I was caught! “A-a dog!” The person who walked in shouted, I knew I was doomed. “How is that possible… Trish, have you been?” another lady said from outside and when she walked in saw me sitting on the floor like an obedient child. “A dog?” She finished the sentence hesitantly and both started panicking. Of course, I was worried about them se
(Lizzy)“At least stop eating like a pig and fix your hair,” my mom said, disturbing my breakfast again.“Exactly…just look at her…aren't you supposed to be at work or something," Skylar chimed in as well as always. Of course, I ignored them all and ate my food in peace.“Lizzy, you came in late last night… you didn't say a word, today you woke up acting like some street girl,” my mom said and snatched the plate from me. I waited until I swallowed when I said something. “Do you two have a problem with me…this is equally my house, let me eat in peace,” I said with a frown and took back my plate. Both of them gave me a sardonic look when I went back to eating.“It's past 9 am…aren't you heading to work… I can give you a ride,” Skylar said and juggled the car keys in front of my face.“I don't have a job okay…if you two are done…let me be,” if they didn't want me to have any peace. Then I'd happily go to my room.“Sweetie, you didn't get the job…but I…”“I'm not qualified, okay? I didn'
(Lizzy)“I want you at my fucking mercy,” he pulled me to him and kissed me hungrily before letting go. “Little puppy, I want your body trembling under mine,” he declared as he unzipped his pants. His shirt was already off, and I swore I yearned to run my fingers on the black fleece carpeting his chest. “Stop it now…have some shame…what…” I was agitated to look at him. I didn't want him to think I said yes to his advances. However, he ignored me and dragged his trousers slightly down so that I could see the top of his shaft. Damn it, he was huge, I recalled how it pained me when we had sex the other night.“Shh, let's play kitten,” he whispered and brought out his cock, so huge and hard with veins popping out. For goodness was he a 9-inch ? “Nothis doesn't seem right,” why was I so nervous? He smirked evilly and stroked himself a few times. I saw some pre-cum on the tip. I swore it hurt while doing that, but he didn't seem to mindHe shoved me on top of the desk as soon as he strip
(Lizzy)“Mom, is this a joke to you!” I couldn't believe she made such a decision without asking me first. Yes, I was older to know what was happening. And she was old enough to make her decisions, but this was something we both had to talk about.“Sweetie, I know this isn't right….but we have to be safe, he's powerful and living with us…will be beneficial to us,” my mom said calmly, I hated how she made such a decision without me. I didn't need a stepfather, and she didn't need a husband. “Just because he's rich or whatever doesn't mean we have to trust him,” I was already exposed. My boss knew my identity. He had money, but he was still blackmailing me.“He can protect us even from werewolves…he's a human, if we live with him…no one will dare touch us,” my mom said holding my hand, but I didn't allow her. Yes, we were rogues on the run from wicked wolves and the vicious alpha. But what guarantee did she have that the man wasn't a bad person?“Who is the man…mom, how could you,” I o
(Lizzy)I shifted around trying to find the most comfortable position. My body was hurting in the wrong places. Even opening my eyes was a struggle, however, with all my might. I fought to keep myself alive. Pushed the sheets away and slowly pushed myself until I was sitting upright“Mmm, what time is it?” I muttered while rubbing my eyes when “Ahh!” I nearly jumped out of bed when I found someone sitting in front of me, “What are you doing?” I was too frightened but cleared my throat and moved away from him.“A little thank you will be nice…here drink up,” Mason said with a frown and shoved a bowl in my hands. “Ouch,” it was hot, I almost dropped it but managed to hold it tightly “What are you doing here?” I asked hesitantly, not sure what he was doing in my room.“You don't remember anything?” Mason asked with raised brows, I shook my head, I didn't recall a thing. Scanning Mason, he seemed put together, wearing a navy-blue suit. “You should stay at home…don't go out,” he said wit
Mason was aware of what Elizabeth was doing. It was sickening to feel a certain thirty for pleasure, and she was having it worse.“Ohh, no…oh,” she tossed and turned while he cradled her in his arms. The only way to quench her thirst was to make love to her. “Sweetheart, calm yourself…” he coaxed while pressing his lips to her forehead. Her skin was as cold as ice, she was sweating so much that he knew he had to do this.“M-make…make love to me,” she gasped and pushed herself up. Tears lingered in her eyes as she slipped her hands into her shirt.“Water…” she muttered while touching him, feeling his hard chest and leaning down to kill him.“I know… Stay still,” he whispered while trying to settle her down. She was uncontrollable, gasping, and moaning when he touched her.“Be good…lie here,” he muttered when he carefully made her lie on the couch, his hands secured to the sides, so he could trap her in place.“Relax baby… I'll take care of you,” Mason whispered and slowly moved away,
(Lizzy)“A-are you sure you are okay?” Skylar asked and handed me a glass of water. I knew I was fine. I nodded and took the glass, although my hands were shaky. I managed to grip the cold glass tightly. “I don't think so…you are sweating and trembling,” she said with arched brows and felt my forehead with the back of her hand. Of course, I was fine.“Hey, don't make this weird… I'm perfectly fine…look,” I said after gulping down the entire glass of water. I slammed the glass on the table and smiled at her.“Okay, anyway… I thought you had work…why not at the office?” Skylar asked and continued packing her clothes. She told me she was moving in with CJ, and I was happy to help her pack her stuff. After visiting Jared. It seemed we had a common enemy. Maybe I could open up to him. Then I feared they would understand me.“What's up, you seem lost,” Skylar's voice jerked me back to my senses. I glanced up and sat down for a while. “Nothing, I'm just worried,” I said, letting out an exh
(Lizzy)To my luck, when I woke up. I didn't find Mason in my room. My mom already left for her flower shop.“Damn this'' I muttered while fighting to zip up my jeans. It was a beautiful Saturday, the sun was up and crispy. I got a call from Jared, and he wanted to see me. Since I had no work. I decided to see him.“Come on…when did you get small” I felt frustrated trying to wear jeans, but it seemed small. Either way, I tossed it away and settled for some loose ripped jeans, black ankle boots and a black crop shirt showing my toned belly.“This should do,” I was delighted to go out after a long time. I missed Jared and his wolves. Grabbing my backpack and phone and I stormed out of the room. It was still in the morning, I rushed towards the stairs without minding how fast I was running when.“Hey!” I bumped into someone and that person was Mason. He caught me before I could fall.“I'm sorry…” I said and managed to get away from him. Glancing up, I found Mason staring at me with narro
Skylar stripped off her jacket and kept it on the couch. Her eyes widened in shock as she looked around the apartment CJ said was small and useless. “Are you kidding me!” The words finally escaped her lips as she turned to CJ. The man stripped off his coat and tossed it on the couch.“What? You don't like it?” He asked in between chuckles and picked up a report. In no time, the lights went on, exposing nothing but a breathtaking living room. For a bachelor, the house was well-kept.“This is insane…” Skylar said, and rushed to check out some statues kept to the sides as decorations. From the ceiling to the lighting and the floor and furniture. She was raised in a small town. A small house where they shared a room and everything. “This…oh my… I can't believe this,” she was afraid of touching anything, let alone sitting on the couch. She was afraid she was too dirty. Seeing her reaction, CJ chuckled and half sat on the armrest.“So you like the living room…let's check out the kitchen,”
(Lizzy)“Ha! A little here and here…and wow!” I exclaimed and showed the two how I was cleaning the desk and arranging the files neatly. Mason and Mia didn't utter a word but kept looking at me as if I were insane.“There and there…put it nicely,” I said while stacking the files together when suddenly, I knocked over a glass vase which shattered to the floor into pieces.“Oh no,” I was screwed, the vase looked expensive with exotic flowers. The water splashed everywhere and on the files that fell.“What are you doing?” It was Mia who asked coldly while I lowered down to pick up the file. Unfortunately, Mason beat me to it before I could touch the broken glass.“Leave it,” he said and shoved my hands away. I felt embarrassed, I stepped away from Mason and watched as he picked up the glass pieces.“How clumsy are you… Mas be careful,” Mia said and rested her hand on Mason's back. Deep down, I felt a sharp pain in my heart.“I didn't mean it… I'll get the cleaner,” I said apologetically
“You opened early today?” Skylar asked while arranging the tables and chairs. She came to the bar earlier than usual because she wanted to apologize to CJ for what happened a few nights ago.“Well, aside from being a bar. It's partly a coffee shop…going to earn extra cash” CJ remarked with a wink, rendering Skylar helpless. CJ was a cool person. Despite how rude she was to him before. He didn't hold any grudges.“Can I…well, work here… I know it's a lot to ask but…” Skylar stammered, not sure how to ask him for a job again. Working a double shift would be nice, she could earn enough money for herself.“Sky,” CJ said and came to stand behind her. Skylar was a bit uncomfortable having him so close to her. Not like he was strange, just that she has had a fair share of wolves.“I understand… I'm asking too much,” she smiled and proceeded to clean the next table. Why did she feel so bad at his refusal? Either way, she had to understand how things worked.“I didn't mean what you are thinki
(Lizzy)My heart was thumping loudly, I went missing for a night and came back. My mom was okay with it. It seemed Mason had full control over her. I freshened up and decided to go downstairs. My mom was in the kitchen. It hurt me to see how she was dedicated to the man when he was nothing but a liar.“Sweetheart…serve Mr. Wilder his morning coffee,” my mom said and pointed at the coffee maker. I was a little hesitant. So much was happening under her nose, and I swore to Mason not to say anything. “Mom, do you want to do this? I mean, stay here and…and be his wife?” I asked while making coffee for Mason. It was enough that my mom was sacrificing everything for me. Including marrying a total stranger. “Sweetie…he's a good man…the fact that he was willing to take us in…shows how kind-hearted he is,” I heard my mom say calmly. I was pretty sure my mom was deceived by Mason's good looks and honey-coated words.“But your happiness… It matters to me more than…” I turned around and said,
(Lizzy)I escaped from the bloodthirsty wolves, limping on one paw with blood dripping from my neck. My eyes were blurry. I managed to escape, but I was injured. My wolf was little and couldn't take the torture. The forest was dark and thickened with fog. The trees in the forest were malady-brown. Grains of poison begrimed the bark and gleamed like witch dust. The loud howls haunted the sooty coppices, salivating over their prey and smearing the blood over their heavy faces. The decaying air and stifling atmosphere provided the perfect abode for those who worshiped the darkness rather than the light. I was in wolf form, I could smell it all, my paws digging deep into the muddy puddles as I galloped away seeking a safe place to hide. In the dense shadows, spiders clutched their snare strings. My alert eyes picked up the sounds, even the littlest ones. My little wolf was getting exhausted. It wasn't like most times I got the strength to run throughout the night.This time it was diffe
