she'll make a fine dinner

Tana's POV

I dragged my feet through the thick forest covered with snow. Looking up, I stared at the sky as snow fell down gently. My gaze moved to the wilderness before me. My body was burning from the pain, and the pain shot deep within my body. I tried to fight it, but my attempt was futile, and slowly I fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

My heart felt like it was about to explode as it beat two times faster than it was supposed to. I tried to pull my weak body up into a standing position, but every time I tried, I fell back on the ground weakly. My vision became blurry and I finally resorted to crawling on the rocky ground, my knees bled from the continuously cutting from the rocks and branches.

If this was my punishment for my wrongdoings in my previous life, then I would willingly accept it unquestionably, but I promised not to let them win, Philip and Veronica would never get the satisfaction of hearing of my death in this cold wilderness.

I groaned again as I felt something weird, as if my insides were being twisted. I spat blood, and soon I belatedly realized it as I grew weaker. My wolf, phoenix, was slowly disconnecting from me.

"No," I said frantically. Not now when I was in the middle of nowhere. I was already completely weak and helpless, this would only gradually kill me. I finally pulled myself up, and tried to balance my feet. I felt weaker than before as my gaze darted around. I took a step further, determined to live through this no matter what.

Just then, I heard a growl from close by. I turned around, trying to search for the source. There was just something about the sound that made my skin crawl. I slowly stalked towards the direction of a giant tree and hid behind it. I heard a growl again, and this time I was sure it was coming closer. I peeped from behind the tree and saw two men…

Wait, I paused and trained my eyes. They were no men, and my eyes widened as realization hit me.

There were vampires and they were on a hunt. I froze, trying to digest everything before snapping out of my trance. I took a step back, in an attempt to flee from them, but I stepped on a branch and the sound grabbed their attention. They immediately snapped their eyes towards me. Their bloodshot eyes zeroed dangerously at the sight of me behind the tree.

Oh no, I had almost forgotten how sharp their hearings were. Their inhuman abilities were an advantage to them and the opposite to me, as they could easily catch up with me. The thoughts made me swallow in fear before I spontaneously turned around and ran to nowhere in particular.

I could hear them growling as they followed me. I gritted my teeth as I continued to fight through my pain, desperately trying to move my weak body that was nothing less than a human. My steps quickened with the only thought of survival running through my head. I prayed to the goddess to help me as I ran through trees, struggling to keep up with my fast pace.

I heart tightened in fear when I heard their footsteps getting closer. I occasionally fell on the ground, but would pick myself up every single time. After running for minutes, I started to give up. However, I forced myself as I ventured deeper into the wilderness. My pace slowed down, causing me to stumble on the branches. I closed my eyes gradually, willing to surrender to the black hole that drew me in.

Suddenly, the vampires stopped chasing after me and they spared themselves a look. "we can't go further. That's the HellGuards territory, and I'm sure Jackson wouldn't take it lightly." One of them reasoned to the other, and they shrieked with just the name, but they still stood there adamant to let me go.

"She'll make a fine dinner. We can't let her go just yet, and I doubt we'd encounter him today," the other encouraged, still reluctant to leave the fragile woman even though they were already in another territory.

"He is right. We can't go yet when we aren't sure. Let's end our hunt with her. We can't go back now when we've come this far," the second vampire chimed, and the other gladly obliged. They quickly rushed after me again, and soon they caught up with me.

The first one that grabbed me, pushed me against a tree, and I fell to the ground almost boneless. The other hastily reached for me as they surrounded me.

Just before they could capture me and make me their dinner, we heard a loud growl from a close distance. They froze midway in their attempt, their eyes searching frantically for the source."Did you hear that?" One of them asked while taking a step back, dreadfully. But after a moment of absolute silence, waiting for another sound, they finally concluded that it was definitely their figment of imagination caused by the fear that was growing within them after crossing the territory.

They turned their gaze and were about to carry on their act when something rushed through the wilderness in fast motion, making them blink in confusion. Suddenly, something jumped out from behind a tree.

A silver-gray wolf stood before us with a warning air around it.

The vampire's eyes widened, they tried to hide their visible fear but to no avail until. Nonetheless, they stood their ground.

I tried to keep my eyes open but they refused. I heard the vampires panicked as they stepped back cautiously.

I slowly opened my eyes and peeked through my lashes. I could hear loud growls as a fight broke. Screams, groans, and growls could be heard. I tried to pull myself away from the chaos in front of me. I leaned against a tree as I watched the fight.

They moved swiftly, and precisely, attacking them effortlessly. Until they became weak, the claws cut through their skin. The fangs dug into the throat of one of them, and the wolf took a big junk of flesh.

The other who witnessed this, moved back dreadfully in utter disbelief, watching as the other shook vigorously to death in his pool of blood. He quickly took out daggers to defend himself, no longer confident in his strength nor abilities.

The wolf growled as it stared sharply at the last surviving one. The wolf attacks again, knocking the knife away from one of them within seconds.

My gaze fell on the dagger that was thrown close to me. I sluggishly reached for it and stared at it before raising my hand up. I brought the dagger to my wrist and slit my wrist slowly, cutting through my veins. I winced a little from the pain.

The vampire paused in his attack, bringing his nose to the air, he sniffed and turned to me. The smell of blood caught his attention and distracted him. His eyes reddened upon sighting the droplets of blood from my wrist.

He rushed towards me, but the wolf already caught up with him. The distraction made it easier for the wolf to rip him apart with ease and within a minute, his lifeless bodies fell on the ground in a thud.

My eyes slowly shut close. The wolf turned to look at the fragile me while I leaned against the tree, I was completely weak as blood gushed out from my wrist. They walked towards me calmly.

I watched it walk closer until it stood right in front of me with a piercing gaze as it started deep into my eyes. I tried to crawl back weakly but I groaned in pain. The wolf leaned towards me and sniffed the wound.

They leaned down to lick the blood on my skin. He could see the visible marks and deep cuts on my skin. My wounds were bleeding, and my heart was beating slowly.

This felt weird because not only was I relaxing around the wolf but I also let the wolf slowly wipe the blood on my arm. Strangely I wasn't feeling any negative aura emanating from the wolf and instead I felt calm, almost as if I knew the wolf before.

The wolf paused when I groaned weakly in pain.

    Jackson POV.I sat among the ranting crowd with a frown, feeling an immense pain in my head. It felt like the more I stayed here, the more the intense pain increased. I tried to strain my ears to know why they were ranting."So what we're saying is that this pack needs more protection. We're safe and the only advantage we have is the experience we've gained." One blurted out in sheer anger."I don't see any problem with what you say but what about the economy? I'm sure you've been paying close attention because if you were, then you'd know how fast the economy is dropping and how hard it has become for us to survive every passing day without much food." Another chimed."Why are you making it sound like everything is over. We're still doing our best and if the economy is dropping, then I'm sure the alpha can't really do much. It isn't as if you expect him to fight our neighboring pack and claim their place." Another reasoned, but everything suddenly became quiet as his last words seeme

    Tana's POV. I stirred in my sleep, feeling discomfort and pain. I slowly opened my eyes and stared at the ceiling. A frown settled on my face, seeing the unfamiliar ceilings. Slowly pushing myself up while biting my lower lip, I tried to fight the pain from my aching body. I groaned when I put too much pressure on my wrist. I sighed, lifting my hand to check the wound on my wrist, which I clearly remembered, given the fact that I inflicted that myself. There was a bandage on my wrist and every jury on my body was already dressed. How come? I wondered inwardly as I took my time, looking around the unfamiliar room. I swung my legs down the pain, trying to walk to the door, but I failed in my attempt. My legs were hurting with marks caused by my rocks. I slumped to the ground the moment I tried to balance my weight, and just then a knock resounded. Glancing up, I stared at the closed door that was suddenly pushed open and someone stepped in briefly. My eyes scanned the lady quickly,

Her eyes snapped towards me, but she held her breath the moment our eyes met. I could feel a spark at the moment. Her mouth fell open in awe as she stared back.She quickly came out of her shock as she cleared her through, which confused me.

    Caroline's POV I groaned and stretched on the bed, my muscles strained as I stretched and yawned. I couldn't remember the last time I slept so well. I never thought I'd enjoy the mundane feeling it brought, but halfway through my stretching, I heard a voice from close by. "You must've enjoyed your night," a masculine voice made me jerk from the bed as I turned to the side, with an accusing look. Wondering what a man was doing in my room when my eyes met Jackson, who had a rueful smile on his lips as he stood beside where I sat on the bed. "W-what are you doing here?" I asked, instinctively pulling the sheets up to my chest as his scrutinizing gaze made me feel vulnerable. He crossed his hands over his chest as he tipped his head to the side. "What do you mean?" He asked with a slightly creased face. "Why are you in my room?" I snapped almost immediately and his face switched, and a muscle tickled on his jaw. I swallowed, thinking he was angry at my admission but was greatly stunn

    Caroline's POV"Good morning, Luna," a maid passing by greeted me as she walked past me. I was getting used to the new title, and I wasn't really shocked by how they addressed me. I felt somehow satisfied recently. With the fact that phoenix was back, and I had my powers back. However, I felt stronger and faster than before, almost making me unpredictable whenever I launched an attack.Lauwren was having a hard time beating me whenever we trained and she also pointed out that I was stronger than before. I looked around as the maid busied around, trying to rearrange the place which was the evidence of the ceremony that took place.Jackson had been smiling since the day we fought the vampires off. "Luna, is there something you want me to assist you with?" A servant asked, walking towards me.Shaking my head, "no, thank you," I responded."Luna, Jackson wants to have a word with you in his office," another came from behind.

    Caroline's POVI snapped out of my shock when he suddenly ordered his men to tie me down on the floor. I groaned when they roughly loosened me and dragged me from the chair, their tight grips on my arms almost distorted my arms as I felt like my bones would soon be crushed."Look at me!" He demanded, and I forced my teary eyes to stare at his ugly face. "What do you say about a bite? Just imagine the humiliation Jackson would feel once I sink my fang into that slender fair neck of us." He trailed his fingers along the lines of my neck down my collarbone, and he looked enchanted, his gaze glued to my neck as they followed the movement of his eyes."Maybe more than a bite would be great. It depends on how divine your blood tastes," he murmured, and as his eyes went further to the little cleavage of my dress. I felt the urge to throw up, greatly disgusted by his perverted thoughts. I struggled, trying to free my hands, but they pulled my hands back painfully, almost twisting it.I shriek

"What you ask of me is quite excessive, and although the offer in exchange is quite…" the man trailed off and swallowed when his gaze fell on the bag. "... convincing, but still, I'd rather think first before doing something this dangerous.""There's no harm in this. The lady in question is not as experienced as you, but I fear what Jackson sees in her that he decided to make her his Luna.
