56 Chapter 56: Fallen pack

"Aaarrghooooooowww." An inhuman howl pierced the air, followed by a loud thud.

Elize woke up startled. Something had fallen down next to where she was curled up. She was confused. When did she fall unconscious? What was that scream that she heard?! What was happening?

She wanted to open her eyes to take a peek when suddenly something wet splashed all over her naked back. Elize shrank further into herself as a reflex, dreading to guess what the wetness was. Placing her hands over her ears, she decided to keep her eyes shut. Squeezing her eyes further closed, she prayed that it would all go away. Her heart was hammering against her chest all too loud. She knew that the wolves would be further enticed by her fear, but she couldn't help herself.

More agonizing screams echoed around her. Her hands covering her ears did little to suppress the heart wrenching sounds. She could hear it clearly. It sounded neither human nor animal.
