DRAVEN’S POV“Mr. Vale,” he walked towards me and extended a handshake. I couldn’t accept it. First because I couldn’t believe he was actually her father and secondly because I was wondering how he traced her all the way here at a bad time when she wasn’t here.“Uhm,” Ragner cleared his throat, stepping in between Mr. Vale and I. He pushed his hand down, killing the handshake attempt. “How do we know for sure that you are who you say you are?”“I have…” The man pulled out an envelope. He flashed old pictures of a family with a little girl that undeniably looked like Aria, even though much younger. “and this,” he handed me a copy of the document he had signed, giving her up as collateral.‘Poor girl,’ I had no idea she was coming from such pain. “This means nothing. The document said you gave her up. You can’t show up here months later demanding for something you gave away.”“Look, I don’t want any trouble.” The man replied, “I regret my actions. My late wife hasn’t given me a minute o

DRAVEN’S POV “Draven?” I saw the mixture of fear and shock in his eyes and I totally understood it. “Are you okay? What happened?” He probed, walking towards me, but still maintaining a safe distance.“I guess I'm okay. I have no idea,” I responded. I took my hands out of my pocket and closed what was left of the distance between us. “It's me,” I assured, before throwing my arms around his neck. Ragner wrapped his arms tightly around me. His warmth gave me relief.“Where did you find him?” Ragner turned to ask Violetta.“I didn't,”“After hours of tearing down everything in my path, having no control over myself, I became weak and I passed out.” I followed Violetta's response. “I woke up about half an hour later in the woods, not as a beast. I waited another half hour to be sure I felt fine before heading home.“He came back just when the guards fixing the door left, so…” Ragner threw his arms around me again.“So, what is the plan?” he probed.“Violetta has prepared a speech.” I exp

DRAVEN’S POV “Mr. Vale,” I pushed forward and let the rest of the crowd run behind me. The warriors of my pack soon assembled beside me, but we were nothing in number compared to the troops Mr. Vale had.“Why do you look surprised to see me? I promised you I'd be back,” he said, dropping from the motorbike he was on. Mr. Vale was accompanied by other bikers and thousands and thousands of foot soldiers.I turned to Ragner. We both had the same thought. I did not expect that Mr. Vale was this powerful. We knew we were expecting a war, but this was not one that we could take on, certainly not in the middle of the personal crisis I was going through.“Mr. Vale, if you can just stand down your guards, I'm pretty sure…”“I'm only going to say this once before there are too many casualties to number,” he took a step forward, “where is my daughter?”I stood in front of him, terrified. I knew there was no right answer to give–none that will turn away the wrath and trying to face the wrath wi

ARIA’S POV MEANWHILE…I staggered through the woods. My feet were shaking. I fell to the ground more times than I could count. I had made an elaborate meal and did not have the luxury of eating anything before my escape.I heard a growl and waved it off, thinking it was the sound of my stomach. It had been doing that for days. I pushed through the starvation, dehydration, weakness and the pain. I heard the growl again, this time, too loud to be ignored, too fierce to be my rumbling stomach.At first it was a small shadow, but gradually it rose from the bushes, covering the moon and casting a giant shadow over me. I dropped to the ground, covering my face, shaking terribly.I felt a huge amount of liquid drop first on my gown. It felt too thick to be water or even saliva. I lifted my head and found its fangs dripping blood on my dress. My lips trembled.“P…Ple…Please…don't hurt me. Please.” I sobbed and begged for my life.The brown colored beast, patched with white fur picked me up

ARIA’S POV “Daryl, take your food up to your room right now!” Darren yelled at her in the thunderous voice I had first heard.In my confused state, I knew Daryl had crossed a line, although the mother's look felt like Darren was overreacting. With a long face, Daryl took her meal and walked out of the dining room.“What replacement?” The silence between Darren and his mother wasn't good enough for me. I needed answers–answers no one was willing to give me.“Excuse me!” Darren was the next person to leave the table. He got up angrily and walked away too. His mother did not hesitate to follow. I was left alone in dim illumination, trying to piece things together to figure out just how much trouble I was in.In the few hours of consciously being around here, I hadn't seen a single window or door. I couldn't just up and leave. I had no idea where I was. Darren saved me from the beast in the woods, what if I wasn't so lucky this time?I pushed my food away, completely losing my appeti
