I laughed, but it abruptly stopped by the sound of a rumbling growl. Did he growl at me? I decided I could play this game too and did a theatrical courtesy bow back,

«I appreciate the request, but I’m afraid I must deny it, barbarian. Shu, run away now and leave me be!»

Straightening up, it looked like he had grown several inches, and his eyes darkened, so I reached the limit!

«Shut up; we are leaving now! I can carry you, or you can walk! But note this! If you force me to carry you, I will make the walk worth my while!»

His hungry eyes flicker again, his stare greedily taking me in slowly and again, that deep growl. It rumbled down in his chest like an animal was trapped inside of him! I took a couple of steps forward again, and disappointment flashed over his face but was soon masked by irritation and slight anger. Moron!

 

 He licked his lips, and again, my eyes widened; canines!

I watched as they slowly grew, elongating his regular teeth. Hell no!

 

« Fine! Be a drag! Now, come on! I’m wasting my time, and they are waiting! Put that pretty little ass into motion before I do!»

They are waiting. No thanks, I mentally rolled my eyes, but to him, I smiled. The sweetest pouting lips smile I could muster as I looked up at him through my lashes before I slowly bit my lip and let it slide out between my teeth. I had his full attention, so to speak!

So, while his head was stuck in the gutter, I spun around and ran all I could toward the cliff's edge. Before I reached the edge, I shouted over my shoulder.

«Enjoy the view, perv!»

Then I jumped.

The moist air met me the moment I leaped out from the edge. The fall was so much longer than I expected, and even if I did jump on purpose, I couldn’t hold back the high-pitched scream that left my lips only seconds before I crashed down in the wild, ice-cold water. It all went by so fast that I didn’t hear his answer or see him. All I saw was water and rocks everywhere! Over, under, and on my sides! My lungs were screaming for air as I tumbled down the strong stream.

Air! I need air! The cold water was relentless; it was in my eyes, ears, nose, and mouth. After a frantic and prolonged struggle, darkness crawled over me from the corner of my eyes. My body turned limp, and I was tossed from side to side. Just as someone grabbed my shoulders, my eyes rolled back into my head, and the darkness took over.

The comforting crackling sound from the fire was so soothing! I snuggled my duvet closer and curled up by the warm fireplace. I froze. Fireplace?

 

My eyes flew open, and I sat up so fast I felt dizzy. It took me a couple of seconds to realize I was sitting on the ground right by a burning fire! My head and eyes slowly adjusted to the fact that I was no longer tossed around under water.

I stretched out, hand over my head, and yawned before I tried rubbing some sleep out of my eyes. Then two things happened! One, taking my hands down, I lock eyes with a man. Two, I felt the cold breeze leaving goosebumps on my skin, so I looked down; my breasts and nipples were strutting. Bare.

My eyes widened, and I yanked the blanket in my lap as I locked eyes with the stranger again.

«What the hell!?!»

«No, Luca!»

Was he serious!?

 «What?!»

 

«My name is Luca.»

I stared at him in disbelief. He looked different from the other guys; he was tall like them, yes. But he seemed leaner, not as bulgy and testosterone-driven, if that makes sense. In my head, it does. His eyes are green, like the moss hidden in the deepest part of the forest, and the sunshine sparkles in the greenery. His jawline is sharp, and his chin is a little narrow. All in all, his facial features seem more pretty than the bulging monsters I just ran from.

 

However, it seemed like he made up for it with arrogance. He reminded me more of a type that blond would enjoy the company of

«Why am I naked?»

I’m not sure if it was sudden embarrassment or anger. Usually, I don’t care. Nudity, it is what it is. Everyone has seen breasts before. But my cheeks were burning, and I didn’t appreciate being dressed naked when I wasn’t even in a state of mind that I noticed! That’s just wrong!

I scowled as he sighed dramatically, brushing his long, nearly white hair over his shoulder. I didn’t really notice before he did, but his hair is long and looks so silky and lovely! Like in a hair commercial! I was starting to wonder if he was a man at all. A model? Then what the hell was he doing here in the middle of nowhere poking a stick in the fireplace and undressing unconscious girls?!

«Because you were soaking wet and cold when I dragged your ass out of the river. You’re welcome, by the way!»

 

That shut me up and got me thinking, god, I was ungrateful, wasn’t I? But that didn’t mean he had to sit there smirking like a creep! I took a deep breath; fine! He did save me; I'll have to calm down.

 

«Oh, yes. I mean, I’m sorry. Thank you!»

His sly grin turned to a beaming smile, and my heart skipped a beat. Damned, are everyone in this place so incredibly good looking?

 

«See, that wasn’t that hard! You are welcome. You do have nice breasts! Can I touch them?»

 

My jaw nearly hit the floor. How can someone say that with a straight face? He was still beaming, and excitement was written all over his face. He had just asked to pet my super fluffy puppy or something.

« Wha.. No! That’s just NO! Where are my clothes!?»

«Why not? I did save you? It’s not fair that you keep them all to yourself!»

 

«What the hell is wrong with you? Where does it say, `Save me and get a free boob squeeze?` Give me my clothes!»

 

This guy is even more shameless than me at my worst, which says a lot. A LOT! He threw some clothes over at me, and the disappointment on his face would have made me laugh in a different setting. Now, I am still trying to figure out what to do with myself!

 

What kind of place is this anyway? These are not my clothes! I lifted the piece of clothing he threw at me and studied it in the light from the flames. A light pink dress? Incredibly short, if I might add, and with a cleavage that was a professional working girl worthy. I threw it back right into his face.

«My clothes? I’m not wearing that napkin!»

He frowned and looked down at the dress. I lifted it and turned it back and forth.

«It’s a dress!»

«Well, it’s the same size as a napkin! Can’t you tell me where my clothes are? This is getting ridiculous! Look, I’m grateful that you saved me. I am! But I do not appreciate sitting here butt naked! I want my clothes. Please?»

 

He seemed taken aback by me, saying, please, what didn’t he expect me to want my clothes back and he started fidgeting with the fabric in his hands.

«I, well, I’m sorry! But no clothes were fitting a young girl like you! This is high quality! The Elven seamstress herself makes it!»

 

«Elven, what? Fitting for a girl like me? Who the hell walks around in the thick forest in a skimpy little dress that barely covers anything? I want my pants, shirt, bra, and sweater! NOW!»

«I burned them..»

«You did what? Why would you do that?»

«You know as well as I! Those close were not fit for a young girl at her best age! It hid all your curves, breasts, and hips! All the good and juicy parts! This! This, however, is perfect! If you wear this, you probably get a mate mark, too!»

«What the hell are you talking about? And why the fuck would I walk around showing off my «juicy parts»? You need to get me some pants right now! Those were my favorite jeans! And my bra! What the hell was wrong with my bra!?»

«I have your bra, just not those ugly pants and sweater….»

«Those cost me a little fortune! Give me my bra, and I’ll get out of here!»

He jumped up,

 

«I`ll get you some new pants—better ones! But you can’t leave! The wolves are still looking for you!»

He ran into the darkness, and I was left by the raging fire. Wolves? Did he say wolfs? Quickly, I shuffled closer to the fire and looked around.

Clothes not close, "juicy parts" not <<juicy parts>>. Author, you need a better editor. You've got a good storyline, but your grammar and sentence structures are horrible. Please try to fix it. Thanks

    This is leather! Thick, brown leather pants! And they have to be at least three sizes too big! The pants Luca came back with looked massive; I knew I should not complain, but he had ruined my pants! And this is supposed to be better? It felt heavy in my hands, and the dark brown fabric looked thick and uncomfortable. «Just put them on! It’s from my mate’s stash, so you should be grateful! Gawd, I’m beginning to think you’ve never seen any of the seamstress's work! » «Mate stash? That sounds so weird! And no, no, I have not, okay!?» «Fine, just put them on. It will work. » I gasped. Just as I zipped them tight, they suctioned in and became so tight! Like they were painted on, and I struggled even to move! «What the…» «Good, now squat down a couple of times. Oh, good god, don’t give me that look! Just fucking do it! » «Stop yelling! » I felt so stupid squatting down, and I was so sure they would tear and bare my ass. Fuck how did I end up in all this?

    He threw dirt over the fire, and we ran; I had no idea why, but I figured it was worth running for if something scared the grin off his face! We stopped by a beautiful little waterfall hidden in a small clearing. We had been running in a dense, moist forest with overgrown trees and bushes for hours, so this was a welcomed sight! A little oasis of peace and beauty in the middle of the dark and thick Woods. I was sent to gather sticks and branches for wood. All this running and Luca's stressed demeanor had made me a little jumpy, so I kept looking over my shoulder, waiting for a monster to appear. Of course, it didn't! With my arms full, I see him wrap two fishes in big leaves and tighten them with something that looks like very long grass. We sat in silence and watched the flames. We were waiting for the fish to Cook. "Why do you keep calling those men wolves?" He sighed, "Because they are; I fucked up! Let's eat first; I have much to fill you in on. But I need food!"

They can’t do shit here, and what would you say? Big bad man kidnapped me; they are wolves on another planet? They would send you straight to a closed-up asylum, and then they would come back and pick you up again. How are you even going to get back?”“I´ll walk until I find a road and flag down a car.”I refused to accept this nonsense; this was utter bullshit, and I started to get angry. Kicking my feet, the roots only tightened even more, to the point where it began to really hurt! “Luca, get me out of here! I’m leaving now!” “I can’t! Don’t you understand? There is as good as no females born in this place; you are human. They will find out! And if they knew I helped you, I’m as good as dead!”“Stop this!” “So, how do you explain the roots around your feet? The pants I brought you? The growling

    There was that wobbling feeling again. Bouncing from side to side, I groaned. My body ached, and I struggled to find my balance. Opening my eyes, it was dark, but after blinking a couple of times, I saw the sun forcing through the walls in small creaks. Pushing myself against the wall behind me, I managed to sit up to discover my hands were tied behind me. Trying to move my feet, I only uncovered that they were tied up. Great! Back to square 1.“Don’t look so disappointed, little one.” My heart skipped a beat, and I quickly looked around. I saw nobody, but I swear I could recognize the voice. That deep, hoarse voice. In my memory, yellow eyes and growing canines appeared. “You again?”I grunted, of course. Luca betrayed me; he didn’t have a plan. He led them straight to me. I closed my eyes and leaned my head back as he laughed. I pretended I dozed off, I didn’t even bother answering him, and after a while, he stopped talking. My heart was racing in my chest, and a thousand thought

    Those words felt wrong in my mouth, but I didn’t get time to dwell on them before I was yanked back out. Again, he held me by my tied wrists and paraded me through the village. At least I'm not hanging over his shoulder with my ass in the air. Bo, not McBraid, Bo walked me in front of him, and we stopped by a large open field where men were fighting, training, and sweating in tiny shorts. We stopped, and I stared—at sun-kissed skin, bulging muscles, and loud grunting. I didn’t get to watch long before they all turned their attention toward us, and I just wanted to sink down into the dirt. I tried taking a few steps back but ended up walking into Bo. His massive figure felt like a warm wall behind me, and the crown of bare-chested men stalked towards us. It really felt like all eyes were on me, and for once, I didn’t like it. I was trapped like an animal, and the vibrating rumble in Bo´s chest that spread down my spine didn’t help much. Startled, I took an Involuntarily step back as B

    "Eir, her name is Eir." It was the last thing I heard; I felt stupid. I was like a stunned fool, but it took me a while to realize where I was. Without stretching it too far, it took me a while to remember who I was. An old lady had led me further into the little cottage-like building, and a steaming hot wooden tub was waiting. I didn’t protest as she started undressing me; it didn’t feel like me at the moment. The water was so warm it burned by touch, but I soon adjusted, and my muscles slowly relaxed. A sweet and fresh scent filled the steaming air; it felt really lovely despite the circumstances. I leaned back and closed my eyes as the older lady started to talk. Her voice was smooth and comfortable to listen to, "First is the bath; we will clean you. There are so many smells we are not used to following you from the earth, including your hair and skin. Do you have those plastic things on your nails? What about your lashes or hair?" I just shook my head. I could never afford st

    Suddenly, I felt so very aware of how light we were clothed. Feet bare, a loose white dress in thin fabric fell down to our knees. The dress had small straps over our shoulders, making us look even more naked. My heart beat so fast and hard that I could taste the thud between my lips. Eyes burned on my skin from behind, staring at us from all directions. Hungry, focused. Greedy lusting look that took in our every curve. Every inch of exposed skin. I felt naked and exposed. Clenching my jaws, I did my best to forget, to close out everyone but myself. The Man from last night, whom I had to call Alpha, stepped out on the open field between us and the dense forest. «Ladies! » His voice demanded power and attention; it felt like I couldn’t look away even if I wanted to. It was like I could feel the other girl’s nerves on my skin and taste the anticipation in the air. “Today, we honor the goddess, the magical, and the female. Today, brothers, w bond between mae hunt!" I jerked as peopl

I could feel the excitement of the whole pack flush through me, but all I felt was boredom. «You don’t want a mate, do you? » Rune's words sounded lazy, and the words shuffled a bit before he busted out laughing. He was drunk, no doubt about it, so I lifted my glass in a toast, and we emptied yet another. He always spoke freely around me, even more so when mead warmed his body and fogged his brain. «I do, but I've already attended two hunts. I could have had a mate, but I don’t want a scared-to-death rabbit that twitches every time I breathe. Not even the hunt is a challenge, so the women are no longer worth it.» He frowned, thinking so hard I could practically hear his head squeak. Tilting my head back, I lay lazily over my dad’s throne.

My heart dropped; it felt like I was pulled back into an alternate reality where I watched the Fay march through the pack´s village. Sound and shapes faded out around me as I felt an unbearable need to cry. My chest started aching, my heart raging against my rib cage, and a lump threatened to suffocate me as I struggled to swallow. It was a real-time fight-or-fight reaction, but they conflicted with one another, crashing inside me as my body began to run. All I could think of was my kids. I forgot all about Eir; there was no room for anything else as my feet carried me in a rush between small cottages and houses. Are they okay? Still with Arcane? They are fine! Of course, they are! But still, all I saw was their small little faces, crying and calling out for me in desperation. Calling for their mom, and I wasn’t there! Irrational, it is irratio

I wanted to yell at him, and I wanted to hit him, but I knew it wasn’t fair. He was right, after all.

Her sob-filled laughter danced over the dark field yet again, and I wanted nothing more than to relish in this feeling. A quest for later, I thought to myself, right now, all I need is here. All I need is her.For once, I understood her. I hated to see her cry, and my heart felt pain with each heartbeat. But she cried while smiling, cried while laughing. I’ve never seen such love between two creatures, the way they fight joy, pain, heartbreak, and love. Because Maya, the lost Valkyrie, acted just the same as she did. Despite all the darkness that tightened around both girls’ hearts, love and happiness shone through just by seeing one another, and I think that is the only thing that kept me sane.

Her white teeth looked unnaturally white, and her sharp canines glinted in the light. Deadly, stunning, and mythical. Nida was not someone I had expected to meet ever again and to be frank, I had no idea how to react. I should hate her, and she worked with Loki. But then again, she never did me anything wrong. Not really. To my surprise, Hades mumbled and looked down to the side, giving Nida all the space she needed without hesitation. I heard him beside me, still mumbling uncoherent words like a scorn teen.A cold but delicate little hand with long nails gently lifted my chin."Don’t let him sour your mood, little human.

This couldn’t be real, but I couldn’t help myself; I had to talk to her!“Mom?”“My little Elly girl! Look at you!”Her hands reached out for me while she walked up. I couldn’t stop looking at her, and she was so different. But I still could not accept it, even when all of me knew and wanted to take it. Accept her, smiling at me! Wanting to hug me! So, of course, I just stood there, gaping, unable to move a muscle.“You grew up, baby girl, I’m glad. ““ I… Who are you?”“You know who I am, Elly!

Fur drenched in blood burned patches from my sword up her front leg where it had hit the bracelet.Shouting and cussing, words meant to hurt, bounced off the walls all around me. Tew and Arcane stopped them, curling them to the ground with no mercy or gentle touch. But I could feel even their eyes on me.

My sword fell to the ground, and the clang of metal against stones echoed down the darkness, over and over until the sound died out.“I didn’t kill her, I didn’t kill her….

    Oh, goddess, was I wrong! I wanted to run and leave this incredible, horrifying darkness so many times, but Hades held me back. Took my hand and led me forward or held me back; eventually, we slowly walked down the narrow, black stone tunnel, filling my head with whispers. Stories about how they died, their last memories, their lust for revenge and despair. All through the hall, desperate cries of a baby echoed all around us. It was horrible, full of pain and fear, and despite not being used to babies, all I wanted was to pick up this poor soul and comfort them. But just walking there, not doing anything, made my heart shatter, my chest ached, and tears streamed down my face while walking silently.I clinging to Hades’ hand like it was the only lifeline I had, and I am not sure I will ever be able to forget this. I don’t know if I will ever stop hearing the poor baby crying in utter desperation. I can’t explain this feeling, cannot explain how this sound haunted me, pained me, and tore

Do I really know people with such an annoying voice? “WAKE UP!” The shouting cut straight through the fog and mumbled and yanked me out, leaving me confused and annoyed at the same time. My eyes were soar and dry, making me blink several times before managing to make sense of the scenery around me. Still, it was so dark, and it all felt so strange. Surreal. The air was neither cold nor warm; it just kind of was there—no wind, but no wind still. No fresh air, no dense old air, heck, I'm not even sure there is air here. However, I am still breathing, not struggling. I feel no pain, no relief, just an immense void inside of me. “You took your time! Hello?
