The animals come alive, I can hear them all. My mind tells me that I should not be able to hear any animals, I can also smell them. That's strange I think to myself.
I hear a lone howl and I shiver, I know it's the black wolf who bit me. I feel the boy who is carrying me, tense.
I groan as he begins to run, my body gives out and I can only just hear my own thoughts. They tell me to run and get as far away from here as I can. I wish I reply to the thought.
"It's okay, don't listen to the thoughts just yet" I hear the boy say.
I shiver as his voice stops the thoughts, even stranger I think to myself. My hearing becomes like static and I cringe, I hate not being able to hear.
My eyes are blurry and my ears have gone, what next. Just as I think that my eyes go completely, I yelp and start to fight my hero. I don't know what's happening and I'm scared, he tries everything to calm me down. The only thing that works is when he sings, his voice soothes me and I find myself drifting off. Even though I can't hear the words, I can hear the tones and they are beautiful.
He whispers something in my ear but I don't know what. I sigh and a sob works it's way out of my body, I don't know what happened but soon after that I'm having a full blown panic attack and crying fit.
I hate myself for showing him my weakness, any girl would shame me for it. But any girl in my shoes would be the same as me, the reason is terror.
I feel myself placed carefully on a bed, someone runs their hands along my body. I panic but someone else holds me down.
"Get off!" I say, I don't think they heard me though as my words were slurred.
I feel pressure on my arm and I cry out, I know I'm about to die but I didn't know death would hurt this much.
I think about my life, I should have done more for mum after dad died. I should have been more of a friend to Tasha and I could have said yes to the pretty boy in my year.
My body gives out and I'm left to meet death, Or so I thought?
I open my eyes to a white room, the light makes my eyes hurt and I close them slightly. I look around and see a beautiful white wolf, it walks towards me and I tense. I know that wolves are just animals that will hurt you, this wolf sits near me and tilts its head before gently barking at me.
“What do you want? Where am I?” I ask it, rolling my eyes when reality kicks in. It’s a wolf and they don’t speak, dumb-ass. I tell myself.
“This is your life now, be careful Ellie and don’t fight the shift” I hear inside my head, I look to the wolf but it’s gone. I start to run around looking for a way out of this place but cannot find one.
I let myself sink to the floor and cry, it’s the only way I can think of keeping my sanity if I still have it.
4 CHAPTER Four
My head pounds, I roll over. I realize I'm in my house, in my bed. I try to remember how I got there. All I remember is the wolf, I don't know how I got home but I'm pretty sure I didn't walk. The light streams through my window, adding to the headache I've already got. My eyesight is slightly fuzzy but even with that the light hurts like hell. My hearing is better and I find it annoying that I can hear things that I shouldn’t be able to hear.
I quickly jump up and shut the curtains, my body aches and I collapse onto my bed. I feel myself drift in and out of sleep all day, I don't know what's wrong with me but I know I need help. My mind is fuzzy and nothing I try to think about, makes sense.
I try to get up again but my body refuses to move, I guess I'm stuck here. I grab my phone and look at the messages, nearly forty unread messages. I roll my eyes and look at the latest.
Ellie, please reply I'm scared about you. please just reply. Tasha sent.
I open a new message and click Tasha. Hey Tasha, I'm fine I think. I'll be okay.
She text back straight away, okay call me if you need anything
Will do, thanks I reply
I grab my laptop, luckily it was right next to my bed. I don't think I would have been able to get it otherwise.
I go on Facebook, I have lots of messages asking me if I'm alright. I quickly reply to them all and turn Facebook off. I can't handle it just yet. I don't usually use it, I can't be bothered with it but Tasha loves it.
I find another site and look for a film to watch, normally I watch horror but I don't think I can handle one at the moment.
I settle for a series of Teen Wolf, I become interested in the how and why an alpha would turn a young boy. My mind reels as I watch it. I get a sense of longing as I watch it and my eyes widen when I realise that maybe I’m going to become what Scott in the series is. I laugh to myself at the silly idea, werewolves are not real and never will be.
I sigh as turn my computer off, I decide that sleep is the best thing for me.
Just as I drift off my phone rings, groaning, I pick up.
"Hey?"
"Yo, Ellie you up for a party? I know you want to"
"I don't think so Tasha, I feel like trash."
"Please, pretty please with a cherry and ice cream on the top?"
I think about it for a minute. I suddenly hear. She is pack, we must go. I jump up, I look around but there is no one there. I shake it off, maybe I just imagined it. I realize that Tasha is still waiting for an answer. I groan slightly at my answer, the last thing I want to do is go to a party. I wonder how my new hearing will be and I grimace at the thought, the music is always too loud for normal ears never mind my new hearing. I also wonder about my eyes, the lights will annoy my vision but I cannot bail on my best friend.
"Sure, but you have to come round here?"
"Yeah, I'll bring some clothes for you too. God knows you can't dress up for a party Ellie"
"Okay Tasha, see you soon"
The line cuts off and I sigh, what have I got myself into. I think back to the voice I heard in my head, I know it's not real but it sounded real. I think about my dream of the white room, the voice is the same one at was in my dream.
I wait for my best friend, no doubt she will bring skinny clothes for us to wear. I hate parties. I only go because she likes them, I hate leaving her to go by herself.
I slowly get up, my body groans in protest and I know this is going to be a very bad idea. I walk gingerly to my bathroom and I decide that a bath will ease my pain.
I turn on the hot water tap, I push my fingers into the water that blasts out in every direction when my fingers meet it. The water runs cold for a minute before warming up.
Looking around I find my scented bubble-bath and pour it in, I wait until the bath is half full then I strip. I sigh as the scalding water hits my legs, my top half shivers as I gently lower myself into the bath tub.
Leaning my head, I close my eyes. The scent of my bubble-bath meets my nose and I smile, I love mint and pine. The scent is stronger and I smile even more, my eyes open slightly but then I shut them again.
I begin to wash myself, hoping to defeat the tenseness that lingers in my bones. One second I'm bathing and the next I hear Tasha yelling at me to get out. I yawn and shiver as the cool water move slightly, I’ve been in here too long.
I jump up, forgetting my battered body. I grab the towel and wrap it around me, swinging the door open I smile at her.
"Hey!" I say, my day brightens up as soon as I see her.
"Hi, we have 1 hour to get ready"
"What, why didn't you wake me up sooner?" I nearly yell at her.
"I've been trying for 2 hours"
"crap!" I reply.
I look towards my bed, the clothes we are going to wear are neatly folded in the middle and make-up is spread around next to it.
"Come on, I've picked out the perfect dress for you" Tasha says, dragging me over to the bed.
I look at the deep blue dress, it matches my eyes. I roll my eyes and pick it up. It's as short as hooker dress, I sigh as I let my towel fall dis-guarded to the floor. I see Tasha roll her eyes and throw me my bra and panties.
I pull them on then slip the dress over my body. Shaking my head I turn to look in my mirror,
it looks pretty good to say it's very short.
"You like?"
"Oh my God Ellie it's perfect"
"Thanks"
After Tasha has pulled on her deep purple dress, we start on make-up. I pick a light green eye shadow that makes my eyes sparkle and Tasha picks the same shade as her dress.
I stare at myself, something feels different. My eyes have bits of gold in them and my body is leaner than before.
"Curly or straight?" Tasha asks me.
"Curly"
Tasha careful brushes my hair as she waits for the curlers to warm up. I sit quietly as she curls my jet black hair, I feel the heat of the tongs as she does my fringe.
She finishes my hair then she does hers, the day has passed and night is starting to creep out. We double check our dresses, make-up and hair; We look killer!
I shake my hair so it falls all around my face and hides my eyes, Tasha frowns at me but I some how feel my eyes change colour. I gulp and close them for a second, I feel my eyes go back to the normal colour and I open them back up to see Tasha staring at me. I roll my eyes and link my arm with hers as we head towards the party.
5 CHAPTER Five
The lights blaze around me, the music is so loud that I feel dizzy and the sun is just starting to set. My eyes hurt with all the flashing lights, just like I knew they would. I can smell the sweat, blood and sex that is going on around the party and it makes me feel sick.
"Come on" Tasha says, pulling on my arm.
I don't even know why I said yes to going to a party, I still feel like shit.
I hear shouting and laughing, maybe it won't be so bad I think to myself.
Tasha drags me up the stairs and to the right, the smell of weed is so bad that I feel myself getting high.
"Maybe this isn't a good idea?" I ask.
"It is, you have been ill so now it's time to make you even more ill for a day or two" Tasha replies.
"Whatever" I say, not being bothered to argue with her.
A drink is thrust into my hand and I take a long drink of it. The alcohol floods my system and I find myself dancing.
I drag Tasha to the dance floor and we shake it until we are about to drop, I stumble as I try to turn too fast. I'm caught by the boy who I bumped into, he smiles and I smile back.
"I'm Dray, what's your name?" He asks.
"Ellie" I mumble, Mate! I hear in my head and I shake it, trying to make the thing go away. I hear growling but I don't know what it is. Dray seems amused but I'm not, my head decides it wants to have a headache and my body falls. I don't even realise that Dray has picked me up until we are in a bedroom; Alone.
I suddenly growl, I feel my eyes change colour and I widen my eye lids. Hot flushes ride along my body until I'm left shivering even though it's 23 degrees.
"Easy, I'm not going to hurt you" Dray says with his arms raised.
I fall onto the bed with my head in my hands, I feel my eyes shift back and I'm left exhausted. I feel my eyes close and I hope Dray doesn't try anything while I'm sleeping. I wonder what is happening maybe my idea of werewolves doesn’t seem so crazy after all.
I sigh as dreams float through my head, wolves run around and I watch. The Forest beckons me, the wolves dance in and out of trees and I laugh.
"Erm, wake up." I hear through the haze of my dream.
"What?" I mumble back.
"It's time to get you home"
"Okay" I reply.
Tasha waits silently for me to drag myself out of the bed, I stumble and Dray catches me. The lights swirl and I know my drink was spiked, I stumble towards Tasha. She has her hand on her hip and I know I'm going to have to fight with her.
She grabs my hand, we walk close together so we don't get lost. The music still surrounds the house, my mind swirls with mushy thoughts.
The air is cooler then I thought and I shiver as soon as we step outside, darkness surrounds us and I feel the urge to bare my teeth.
Shaking my head I ignore my urges. Tasha doesn't talk the whole trip home and I know something happened that she didn't like.
"Tasha, what's the matter?" I ask, my voice slurs from too much booze but she knows what I said.
"Nothing, let's just hurry home" She replies stiffly.
6 CHAPTER six
I groan as I crawl out of bed for the fifth time, my hurry for the bathroom is for nothing. my guts decide that the hallway is good enough to puke in.
I groan as my head pounds, I knew it was a bad idea to go out drinking. I try to remember what happened, but my mind doesn't seem to know what happened.
I'm guessing I drunk until I couldn't see and that I had to been dragged home, like all ways then.
I look in the mirror, I look like death. I wonder what happened to me, I used to look some what decent but now I really look like rubbish.
My body aches and I breathe in and out to try and stop the dizziness that overcomes me.
I shake my head and stand up, my body sways but I manage to stay standing.
I walk slowly to the bathroom and turn the shower on, the hot water helps relieve all my tense muscles and I sigh. My head feels better already, I yawn while rubbing shampoo into my hair. I look around than gently tilt my head towards the shower head, the water flows around my face and I smile.
I jump out when I feel good enough then I dry myself with a fluffy towel, I walk back to my bedroom and collapse on my bed; I'm not going anywhere today.
I wake up to my phone going off like crazy, I groan and turn it off; if anyone wants me then they can call round.
I roll my eyes at my phone, grabbing my dressing gown. I yawn and walk down to the kitchen, hoping that my mum has done some shopping.
I find some food and cook it, my cooking skills are not very good but who cares; I'm starving. I sit down and think about last night, about Dray and about how he helped me.
I wonder who he is and why my mind thinks he is a friend or mate? I don't know if it was my spiked drink or if it was something else.
"Ellie!" I hear Tasha shout from the doorway.
"In the kitchen" I reply, I remember her being funny with me last night.
"What were you doing with that guy last night??" She growls with her hands on her hips.
I feel myself get angry, I don't need her to tell me who I can and can't talked to. She has no right to know what we were doing, we didn't do anything but still she doesn't have the right to know.
"Why should I tell you?" I ask.
"Because I need to know" She replies with a softer tone.
I feel my eyes change colour like last night and I hear a howl from the woods near my house, the wolves are out and about; The thought makes me shiver.
"Just go!" I yell as pain takes hold of my body.
She pales then runs out of my house, I feel someone close to me but I don't know who until they pull me into them; It's Dray.
"Hush, it's okay; it's okay Ellie's safe, I'm here" I hear Dray say over and over, I feel myself calm down and my body stops the pain.
"what just happened?" I ask him with a shaky voice
"It's your wolf, she called out to me and I came as fast as I could" He murmurs into my ear.
"cool" I chuckle with a frown. I realise I’m in shock, maybe it’s from my wolf or maybe it’s from being spiked but I start to feel strange and I run to the bathroom to chuck up for what feels like the tenth time today.
I knew that wolves were the sole reason for my weird thoughts and dreams, the wolf who bit me must have been a werewolf.
Dray follows me and holds my hair while my guts chuck the remain contents up. I sigh once I’m done and Dray helps me to bed, he sits on my desk chair and I fall asleep like I haven’t slept for years.
7 CHAPTER Seven
I sigh into Dray, he's been here with me for two days. It’s strange how familiar we are with each other, like he knows what I’m thinking and feeling. Dray has been telling me about werewolves and all the things they can do. He explained what a mate is and that he i
s my mate and I’m his, I don’t fully understand but I know more than I did. I feel my wolf calling to me but I ignore her, I don't really get being a werewolf but I'm not going to argue; I don't have the will power anymore.
I yawn and shiver as I actually feel the moon raising, I guess I don't have something up with me. I shiver again and Dray gently shakes me.
"It's going to be alright, I'm with you all the way" He says.
I feel him let go of me, he starts taking his clothes off and I blush. I giggle as he does, I stare at his naked form and I see him smile. I hear his bones crack and I see black fur appear all around his body, I shiver as I watch him.
"I'm still here, Don't fight it!" He says before exploding into a giant black wolf.
I gasp as pain radiates through my body, pain makes me double over and I cry out as my bones start to pop and crack. Bright white fur sprouts along my body and my ears move higher up my head and become pointed.
I yell, it turns into a growl and Dray bumps me to make sure I'm okay.
I shake once I'm in my new wolf form, I hear my wolf; She tells us to run and never look back, I guess she has the same thoughts as me then.
Dray bumps me and I follow him, I stumble a few times because I'm not used to my wolf form.
He huffs and I grin, a weird expression for a wolf.
I start to run, the wind tangles in my fur and I let out a joyful bark. Dray follows me, guiding me and making sure I stay safe on my first every run. I let go of my fear and just let myself be, my eyesight is sharper and instead of colours all I can see is shades of black and white. My ears flicker around me and I pick up all sorts of different sounds that I’m not used too, my wolf tells me to follow a scent and I start to follow it.
I pick up the pace and run like my life is in great danger, just to see how fast I can go. Dray looks like he wants to stop me but he doesn't do anything.
We mess around happily for hours until I end up in the woods where I was bitten. I let out a growl as soon as I smell my lingering scent.
