Jump:She rolled over,whatever she was laying on was beyond soft. Soft, she was used to laying on the ground. She felt her heart begin pounding in her chest, something was wrong. She woke up in a panic, jolting up right in the bed. She looked around wide-eyed and panicked, her hands in fist by her side ready to defend herself. Her chest tightening as she felt Lenore awake as well. The room she was in was dark, the only light was from a fireplace. There was not much in it. A bed and chair by the fire. She looked around relieved that she was alone. Her head was spinning; she was trying to remember exactly what happened. She sat up on the bed rubbing her head. A sharp stinging, burning feeling rushed up her arm as she grazed it. The pain made her look down. She looked at her arm, there was a bandage. A bandage, why was she bandaged..it covers…her brand. She was branded! The words screamed in her head as everything came rushing back. Escape! She needed to escape! she thought jumping to
Run: Alice took off running full force into the trees. icicles falling from the branches as she pushed through the snow. Each step she took, she sunk into it. The snow reached up to her knees as she sank into it. She grabbed onto a low hanging tree limbing trying to help herself to move forward. Maybe he broke his legs. Lenore huffed, trying to send another surge of strength to help her push forward. Alice looked back over her shoulder. He had landed neatly in the snow, like it was nothing. She blinked when she fell in the snow, it stung, it burned; it hurt! IT didn't even phase him. He wasn't acting like he jumped out of a second story window. He raised his head up from his crouched position. His eyes gray like the dark hanging sky above them, locked with hers. He stood up straight towering above the snow, his dark shadow stretched outward over it. His eyes never left her as he began to move effortlessly. "Shit." Alice said watching him move through the snow like he was walki
Hurt: Arkyn pushed forward forcing the shift, he needed to tell them. He needed them to stop. He saw the arrow going for her. The loud popping and locking of his bones filled the air along with the whistle of doom. He was standing naked now in human form watching the arrow sail through the air towards the jet black wolf. It was too late his mind screamed as he raced towards the wolf. She turned, seeing him and went to square off with him. Her teeth snarled at him as she growled ready to right. “Move!” He yelled at her but it was too late the arrow hit her in her hind leg. She let out a loud whimper as Arkyn got to her. He saw another arrow flying for her. He threw his forearm in front of her, the arrow piercing through his forearm. He whipped around looking at the guards on the wall. “Stand down!!” He bellowed out, anger vibrating the woods around them. “Alpha!” The word echoed along the wall as the guards dropped to their knees bowing. Lenore was laying on her side whimper
his chest . as angry as he was he was trying to be as gentle as possible. Njar had a small smirk on his face. Arkyn glared at him but it didn't change Njar's expression. He slid his hand carefully down to the back of her thighs trying not to move her injured leg too much as he scooped her into his arms. She let out a small groan, her head moving close to his neck. He sighed, as he turned to start walking back to the pack house. Her skin against his was sending chills through him. It was a mixture of bliss and calming comfort. She let out a small moan as her leg brushed against him. The pain shooting through her he swore he could physically feel it. It sent Conan into an angry rage.Arkyn gritted his teeth as he stopped just at the edge of the forest. He looked up at the guards, all still kneeling in their place. Anger flooded through him. His eyes shot to Njar who was now on his feet and looking at the guards as well. Njar grabbed ahold of his blade and nodded to Arkyn. Arkyn didn't
Trapped: She felt warm, she curled into the warm wrapping around her like a safety blanket. Safe…she had not felt safe in so long. This warmth shielded her and held a promise of protection like she had never felt before. She pressed into it, needing to be as close as possible to it. She felt it wrap around her, it was strong and solid. The warmth that was encasing her let out a deep sigh. Alice froze. The warmth was moving , it pulled her tighter to it. Alice slowly opened her eyes. Her back was pressed into something hard and it was digging into her back. She slowly opened her eyes trying to not move too much. Massive arms encased her, pinning her against his chest. She nearly jumped away. She was naked and the more she looked the more she realized he was naked. Her mind is screaming at her to do something. She looked around the room. It was the same room she was in before. She would escape the same way. She thought but then her eyes fell on the window. He had boarded it up. Why w
Locked in:Arkyn walked out of his bedroom, his body shaking. A rush of emotions going through him. He was fighting his wolf who was becoming possessive. He wanted to mark her, claim her as his own. He was fighting the need to touch her. He was angry she was hurt and angry someone would do that to her. He wanted to kill James and the whole pack for allowing it to happen. He let out a long breath trying to calm his emotions. Her words telling him to go ahead and kill her echoed around in his head. He gritted his teeth, his hand still gripping the door knob to the bedroom. The doorknob snapped in his hand. He silently cursed the moon goddess for giving him a second chance mate that was so far broken. He dropped the door handle from his hand and began walking down the hall. His naked body not even reacting the chill in the air. He was making his way down the hall when he heard her. He wasn't ready to deal with her just yet. “Alpha.” Kirsten's voice came from the end of the hallway.H
Wrong Turn:Alice stared at the door not believing that some random pack member had just freed her. Was it this easy? Was this some kind of sick trap? It was the only way out and if she wanted out then she was going to have to go ahead and go. She slowly pushed the door open and waited. There was no noise, no sounds coming from out in the hallway. She slowly began to venture out, expecting someone to be waiting for her on the other side to throw her back in the room or throw her in a dungeon. Her feet hit the soft carpet on the hallway. She looked both ways, there was only one way to leave. The other end of the hall was a wall. If she could just find her way to a window or door that leads to an exit she would be good as gone. She hugged the wall creeping along it trying to make no sounds. She couldn't see the end of the hall, the hallway curved. There were no other rooms in this hallway so far. She frowned knowing that most Alpha’s liked their space but lived in the pack house. She
Cornered: She didn't look back as she bolted down the hallway. She ran as fast as her feet could carry her. All her plans are out the window now. She just needed to get away from him. He was making her feel things she had never felt before. “Why did you do that?” Lenore growled at her.“What the hell is wrong with you? We are trying to escape? Did you all of a sudden want to become a slave? Is that a pleasure slave? Do you not remember agreeing with me to fight!’ Alice screamed at her wolf.“Alice…we need to talk.” Lenore said reluctantly. “Yea well now isn't the time for chit chat.” Alice growled at her becoming distracted with Lenore and her mindless chatter.Alice rounded a corner and found herself staring at several guards. They looked like they had been sitting there waiting for her. Her eyes narrowed at them as she came to a stop squaring off with them. Her chest rising and falling rapidly as she tried to catch her breath from running. They moved towards her. She could sense
