chapter 10

Evony~

I awoke the sound of a car door being slammed. It jolted me awake causing pain to shoot through my body, especially in my hind leg that was torn open by a rouge.

My head was pounding and I whined trying to look at my surroundings to see where I was. To my dismay I was not at home... I was in the back of an SUV, trapped inside of a dog crate.

The back doors of the van opened up with three rouges standing there. My lips peeled back and I let out a snarl. One of them opened a bottle of liquid and splashed me with it. I could smell the scent of wolfsbane mixed with water. But it had no effect on me, was I somehow immune to it? They expected it to weaken me enough that they could drag me out of the van right? Well, that's exactly what I'll give them.

With a whine I let my head fall back and my eyes close. I could hear one of them tsk before opening the cage."Are you fucking serious? She just passed out for a bit of wolf's bane? This bitch is pathetic."

I internally had to hold back my wolf before she gave us away and ripped out the man's throat before we even have a chance to try and escape...

I could hear one of them call over to someone, telling them to bring out a stretcher. After a moment of bickering between the three rouges I could feel their hands on me as they roughly dragged me out onto a stretcher.

I cracked my eye open to look at my surroundings. I was in a rouge camp, no doubt about it. Closed my eyes as another man came up and started giving the three rouges orders, to put me over with the rest. I didn't know what. Exactly he meant by that but knew it couldn't be good. It means im, not the only prisoner here. The rouges grumbled curse and continued to bicker with each other as I was moved across the camp.

After a moment of walking I could feel them lower the stretched to the ground, peeking through my squinted eyes I noticed we were outside of a stone building, this wasn't a normal camp... I also noticed a man leaning against a tree watching the rouges and me from a distance. I quickly shut my eyes before anyone saw. My ear twitched at the sound of keys rattling.

"Let's move her inside" the moment I felt someone touch near my stomach I snapped and lashed out biting down on the rouges arm until there was a defending crack followed by his scream of agony the man pulled away clutching his now bleeding and broken arm both of the other rouges jumped back in surprise. A few people in the camp also noticed and were watching the scene unfold, some even took steps closer, they were ready to subdue me.

I sat up the best to my ability ignoring the burning pain throughout my body and snarled at anyone who dared to even take a step towards me. So much for being sneaky, I scolded myself, or should I say my wolf...

"You better submit or else!" One of the rouges shifted and came towards me, it only took me seconds to clamp my teeth around his throat and separate his windpipe from his body. I snapped at the others warning them to stay back, but I was vastly outnumbered.

What am I supposed to do? I looked back and forth, but i was completely surrounded and backed up against a locked door. Even if I could run I wouldnt get fare with how many wolves were here, they stop me for I even had a chance to reach the border of their camp.

Another rouge stepped forward to grab men and I was inches from tearing off a few fingers when a man came up beside me and grabbed the scruff of my furr behind the neck, instantly I felt like a paralyzed puppy.

The scent of mint was radiating off him and I couldn't move. How was this even possible? Not only was I just stopped, he snuck up on me and I can't even break free?

"Open the door." A gruff, almost strained voice came from behind me. Despite the fact I was restrained, I felt...calm? What is wrong with me?!

The other rouges seemed surprised but the one with the keys quickly stepped over and opened the door. The inside of the building was dark and I couldn't see anything inside.

The grip on the back of my neck was released as I was awkwardly picked up. I let out a growl when his hand touched my wound he let out his own growl and I quickly shut up with a small whine. What the hell?!

He carried me inside and I realized the building was like a prison, the metal bars were infused with silver and there were at least ten other girls inside with me. They all seemed so young, and scared... They opened the door locking them all inside and the man set me down inside before grabbing my injured leg to inspect it.

On instinct my mouth latched onto his arm, but I didn't bite down....i didn't Peirce his skin. Instead I started up at the honey brown color eyes of the man before me. He was wearing a jacket with his hood on, and fa face mask covered the rest of his features, all I could see were his eyes.

My heart, felt like it might beat out of my chest. One of the men behind him stepped forward ready to help but he simply held up his other hand in a silent order to stop.

After a moment of staring down at me he looked back at the others. "Grab some bandages... She's injured, we dont need a dead wolf on our hands..."

One of them left to do as he ordered, and he looked back down at me. "Let go." His order was little more than a silent warning and I felt my wolf shy away. Hesitantly I released his arm and he inspected it for damage before looking back at me. The other girls in the room were all cowering away, and none of them seemed willing to fight these men.

I needed to be careful as well, if I bared my fangs at someone in charge I dont doubt they would kill me, or do something worse.

The other man came back with a roll of bandages and handed it to him, he proceeded to wrap my leg in the fabric avoiding eye contact. Who was this man? Once he finished with a tight knot he stood to his feet and walked out, they shut the door behind them locking me in with the other she-wolves.

Huffing I moved to make myself more comfortable and rested my head on my paws, now what? Closing my eyes I tried to mind link ethan or my father but it was pointless, I was far out of their range of communication and I had no idea where I was. Why can't anything ever go right?

The sound of shuffling got my attention and I looked up to see one of the younger girls approaching me, she looked to be about my age, with short black hair framing her face and beautiful blue eyes.

She kneeled beside me and smiled. "That was pretty brave of you... Biting kyler like that... He's not as cruel as the rest of them but he's pretty intimidating... "

I silently listened to her thinking about the man, so his name was...kyler...i still can't wrap my head around what just happend, and I still couldn't believe I was in this situation. I huffed glancing at the door.

His eyes were the same ones I saw before I blacked out under that house... Did he save me?

"My name is Arora... I'm from the silver stone pack... I'm the main doctor's daughter... The others come from different packs...we all got taken from our pack lands... Which im guessing is the reason why you're here." I looked back at the girl before me she was so pretty and I felt bad that she was trapped in this situation, same with all the others. I tried to speak but it only came out as a whine, I nearly forgot I was a wolf...

Wait...im still a wolf... I haven't changed back, I dont know how to change back!? I stood up panicked looming myself over unsure what to do. I've never shifted while I was conscious so how am I supposed to change back to my human form?! I was already unconscious before and I still didn't change, what am I supposed to do?!

"Hey, hey it's okay! Calm down your fine! You dont have to be scared!" She held out her hands and I looked up at her, my panic clear in my eyes.

She looked at me for a moment and she seemed to understand. "You can't shift can you?"

Sitting back down I whined confirming her assumption.

"Hmm... It's okay we can figure it out... Most of us sleep in our wolf forms because it gets so cold in here at night, im shre we can figure out a way to help you... For now you should rest." She reached up and touched my head causing pain to shoot through my head.

"Looks like you got a nasty cut there...and on your leg too... May I?" She grabbed a bowl of water and rag from the old sink in the corner of the cell and I laid my head down.

Dipping the rag into the water she started to clean the cut on my head. I didn't resist, and. Simply laid there thinking of what I should do next and how we could escape. Then Kyler came back to mind, he had to have saved me from the collapsed building...maybe he could help us?

My mind became dizzy with all the thoughts running through my head, and I closed my eyes. Letting myself drift off into sleep, Arora was right... I needed to rest and recover from my injuries.

I just hope Kyler is on our side...
