Opening my eyes, I saw a woman whose beauty made me feel like I am a trash can, with her beautiful long hair of different colors, her white skin with beautiful freckles, her little figure that was breathtaking did I heard another young woman speak for me. “Mother, are you serious about these choices?” It was me who asked her. However hearing another woman tone coming out of me, speak through me, made me snap to see where I was, this was a big cozy home everything, it was all made of wood, and it was decorated with stones and animal fur, there were a lot of women here but what got my attention, into knowing what was around me in detailed of this home was the people in it, it wasn’t empty by any means, everyone was simply trying to figure something out, but I felt like there was something wrong about what they were trying to figure out, from the words that came out of this body I’m in, or the person who used me to speak, it felt wrong how the girl reacted to her mother, I wasn’t sure wh
"Nice to meet you," I say with sweaty palms. He stops looking at me, and I feel like throwing up. I don't like this at all. I know that my parents are making plans or already have something for me. I can't stand the tension, and I can't wait to get out of here. I don't want this life anymore."I know I'm older than her, which is why I'll come back in six years to take her as my payment for a wife," When he says that, my eyes widen, and when he replies, I shake my head."We know you are young. Eighteen is young; I was married at that age. We can keep her until then as long as you remember what we agreed to." My mom says something, and I use this time to go to the bathroom."May I get out of here?" When I hear "Go," I didn't ask anyone for anything. I get up and walk out, but when I get to the door, my dad starts talking to me. "Change for school, you're out for the rest of the day." I open the door and run to my room at the top of the mansion as soon as it closes.Changing I take the m
"Ulysses, though?" He shakes his head and pushes me through the same door. Ulysses pulled me in and said, "Run, he'll be fine, these people have been looking for you for hours, now go run and don't look back, kid." He closes the door, and I leave. If he says that Ulysses will be okay, that's fine.Just a few houses and I'll be there. There's a small path that leads to the entrance of these woods, where a few houses are. Juana and Jose aren't as wealthy as I am, but they take classes with me because their parents work in the reserve of the woods. The governor lets them do this because this is our greatest pride, even though it's just the woods. When I get to their house, I stop in front of a truck, and when I see the door to their house open, I again duck down. I looked at my watch and saw that it was just after 2 p.m. Nobody was supposed to be home, so I crouched down to the side of the house where this truck belonged. That's when I heard a dog growl.Why do I turn my head to see a s
When I wake up and the dogs shake my shoulders to get me to open the door, I realize I'm in the basement. I feel out of it, tired and sore from all the running and carrying the bike and the dogs on my back. When Juana yells from the other side of the door, I feel like I'm going to fall over. "Open up, chick, I have food!"That is the thing that has pushed me the most so far. When I get up, the dogs look sad. I try to talk, but it hurts to even try. Instead, I open the door, and when I see her, I ask her to wail and take the bag she is holding. "Do you sell items for dogs?" The dogs behind me are growling at what I'm saying.I turn around to see that they are angry about what I asked, and when I hear Juana gasp and go back to the kitchen, I raise my eyebrows and ask, "What did I say?" When I got back to the basement, I sat down on the same sofa and started to eat my whopper. Then I looked down and saw that I had broken my new nails. Juana comes with two huge bowls full of stake as she
When I was dreaming, I felt so free from the hell I had to go through for years because of my parents. I only wished this escape from the real world would last forever, because I don't want to fall for either of them, I don’t want to go back, ever.Getting up drowsy, I could have sworn I was hearing my mother's voice.*Chika, we need to go.* her high raspy voice would shoult at me when I wasn’t next to her the second she decided to leave without telling me.It was the same voice, the same one she would usually use use before she blew a whistle to tell me to run away from her and her gunmen. That was my mother's game, her favorite thing to do, and one of my worst memories that hunt me, running from her and remembering how her smile was real as my horror face of her men would shoot at me as I ran."CHIKA!" I wake up when I hear Juana scream, now realizing it was her."Huh? Huh?" I move to her as I asked I see Juana, she put the two puppies in a different bag and gave it to Jose while I
Cooper POV I'm going to go crazy if I have to stay in this space. Looking at how there's a small light, at least I can see what's going on, but being in one box and Harper being in another is just great, I roll my eyes at this. At least on the other box, we were together, but this is ridiculous until I feel the car stop and hear something small being thrown, I thought a bullet was shot, but I didn't hear anything that could have meant a gun was fired."What did you hear?’ The more I hear about Harper, the more nervous I get."Yes, was it a quiet gun or a simple shot from a sniper? Could it have come from far away? He starts asking a million questions, and I'm already getting bored until we both hear a howl.Close to us, it sounded more like an announcement or a warning. Till I smell other wolves, my ears perk up from this. Is it possible that our pack is looking for us? I ask my twin right away."I think we're being chased twice,’ he said. ‘If I heard right, the sound came from the d
Harper's POV Prophecy? Isn't that what they're seeking in these times? Us? I'm having trouble recalling how we wound up in that box, and I'm fairly positive it was Cooper's fault; if his head was in the proper location with his head that's glued to it, none of this nonsense would have occurred. 'Cooper, what did you do, I vow to the heavens above?' I mentally connect with my twin, who is visibly surprised. 'I swear on my black hairy ass that I have no clue, but I am certain that I did not do anything to have that label placed on us. '" I rolled my eyes at his show of not taking this seriously as he reacted cockily with his pathetic joke. "What the heck are they talking about, those guys?" Whatever we need to get out of here, Jose says as he begins to crawl backward on his arms and knees. He glances behind him as we gaze ahead; they seem to have split up, one on my side following the road and the other on the other. I growl at Cooper and bite his ear as soon as I see them far enoug
I shifted into my wolf and concealed myself in some bushes. Dang, it, I was so near, I kept low in the darkest part of this bush gazing straight where Cooper was coming out of the river, suddenly I saw him going out but towards the city, good he departed to the city.Shit, the hunter tosses a little ball, a grenade with wolfbane as smoke. When the same wolf knocks me down, his bite goes directly for my arm, ripping a piece out of me, I try not to yell, and instead, another hunter smacks me with his baton. If I don't get out of this situation, I'm doomed.I'm being forced down to the ground by the officer and the hunter, when I notice a lady holding a pistol and darts in her other hand, loading the rifle. She has a terrible grin on her face. What caught me by surprise was how much the woman resembled me of Chika.Chika POVI couldn't stop thinking about what the doctor and social worker had concluded: that I would be placed in an orphanage. Were they crazy? I won't be with anybody I kn
