Prologue

Charlotte's pov:

Ahhhhhhh!

And he fell on the ground with a loud thud. Is he dead? I looked at the red eyed beast. Am I going to be next. N-No I don't want to die, not now, not ever. It was the same man who kidnapped me. Yes kidnapped, from my own birthday party. My twenty-first birthday party. Can you believe it?

By the way I'm Charlotte Marie Walker. And I'm going to die in few seconds.

'What are you waiting for, to get tore apart by a beast? Get up and run, you idiot.' My inner voice scolded me. Right now, I'm laying on the middle of the woods with a dead body and a big wolf.

'Nonono... don't run. It would be better if you just pretend you are dead. He is just a normal werewolf, except his eyes and hieght. Just look into her eyes, they look so mesmerising and beautiful.' My another subconscious said,

Are you for real? Did you lose your brain somewhere in this wood, huh? Noway in this holy world I am going to look into those eyes. I fired back.

I was too busy to praying to God that I didn't realise someone is coming towards me.

A shiver ran down my spine when I felt something wet touching my cheek. 'Is he sniffing me.' My breath hitched just at mere thought.

'What are you doing? Get yourself together Charlie. ' My inner voice scolded me.

I froze as ice rock of Antarctica when I felt rough tongue licking my cheek. Ewwwww

'Go away, please go away. I don't want you to eat me.' I prayed silently, hoping he would listen me.

Suddenly it stopped, like it could hear me. I waited a while, but nothing came.

Praying whole universe, I opened my eyes and greeted by moonlight. The moon was full, scattering it's light in this dark world.

Somehow, I felt safe and secure under it. I have spent many nights admiring its beauty. But, today- today, there was something new in it that I couldn't figure out. I looked around making sure I'm alone. I tried to find way out of this dense woods, but couldn't. Then I saw it, the way out of it. It was strange for me that it was only one direction where the moonlight was falling. I got up and ran towards it. I ran, till I no more felt my legs. I ran, till I could hear my heart pumping furiously into my chest. The wind was hitting me, trying to calm me in this crucial time.

I ran as much as I could. My legs gave up, making me fall on ground. My breathing starting to slow and deep due to lack of oxygen.

That's it, I can't take this anymore. This is my end, on my twenty-first birthday. The day when I got my freedom. Freedom from this Cruel, yet beautiful world. Wow... how lucky I'm, ain't I.

(Charlie- short form of Charlotte).
