The beast were galloping after her, she stumbled through the dark woody night, the growls were ever increasing. "Hey am here ! Hey! Hey! come get me !" Smith screamed at the fiery giant cats inside his car , the Beast made a U-turn from following Jenifer, they turned to her husband in the car .

Sharp claws dug into his skin tearing it open blood poured like oil from a broken jerrican. "Aaaarh Jesus! Aaaarh Jesus Christ somebody help !" Smith screamed his mouth almost tearing open . The eyes of the six seven feet tall black cats shun yellow like a yellow star at the middle of the night in the sky , they dragged Jacob out of the car and tore him into parts , each taking a piece of his body away .

Jennifer stopped for a while to hear her husband's voice probably for the last time , his cries rented the room.

She began to run again she needed to get to the main road to get a vehicle to help her out of the carnage . But then she heard dried woods breaking under the weight of something invisible , something that camouflaged with the night , she was backing away slowly eyes the heinous beast .

"Heeey! Hey ! Jesus!" Jennifer screamed when the beast dragged her to the ground ,they furiously tore her into pieces .

"Jesus! Jesus ! Jesus !" She screamed as she jumped out of her sleep ,holding the bedsheets tight around her . Smith woke from his deep sleep , she was sweating profusely under the cold room , the air conditioner was blowing at the highest temperature.

"what's it baby?" Smith held his heavily pregnant wife , she was still trembling in fear

"Talk to me baby ?

why were you screaming . Was it the dream again ?"

He asked and she slowly nodded . He embraced her . "Don't worry baby, you gonna be fine ." He kissed her forehead, she glued herself to him . Her heart drumming faster under her ribs .

She felt crippled by the feeling of fear, that had come over her,

She refused to be alone in the big six bedroom detached duplex. They lived alone in the gigantic house , Smith's father had given to them as a wedding present.

"Babe I don't want to be left alone, can we go together?" Jennifer pleaded with her husband. "Come on sweetheart, you are gonna be safe , do you think nightmares would cross over from your dream to reality ?" He said kissing her ."I won't be long baby , in fifteen minutes or less I'm gonna be back from the pharmacy, you'll be fine trust me."

The dreadful feeling ,caused her to have stomach cramps, she couldn't say a word,

she sat on the couch, when she heard the growl, she jumped up staring all over the room with unease, she would dial Smith's number over and over, as she looked over her shoulders, she knew there was someone or an entity in the house already.

"Hello is there anyone there ?"

She called as she fumbled her way around, checking from one room to another, looking for the intruder.

The growling snarls was so loud,

She heard the sounds of kitchen utensils tumbling down then finally the whole shelves in the kitchen crumbled, she rushed there to see what was going on in the kitchen.

She kept dialling her husband's number he wasn't picking , she felt whoever it was

 already in the house while her husband was there, it waited for him to go before it attacked her

"Oh my God Smith pick up the d a m n call !" She bemoaned as she placed her hands on her protruding stomach,

The baby was kicking, maybe it also felt the tension around it. She tiptoed to the kitchen.

There she saw the black cat standing seven five feet tall, she was frozen, it was so large bigger than an African lion, the furs were so black like a bottomless pit, her eyes met the yellow eyes, she froze in fear, the beast bared it fangs at her, snarling with a crackling guttural sounds, her legs suddenly became vegetables, she was almost collapsing, she stopped breathing for a while.

she wondered how a beast of that size got into the house, she had locked all the doors and windows, when Smith was about to leave the house to get her some drugs and provision from a store, there was no way a beast of that size could come into the house , when there was no forest around Leeds close to keep such a giant black cat She turned and fled from the kitchen, the beast ran out chasing after her.

The light began to flicker, a few seconds later the house was thrown into total darckness.

It chased after her into the sitting room, It's sharp claws had tore open the couch, as it tried to pin the heavily pregnant woman,

the claws sharp like knife shot out of its fingers. bared its sharp canine at her, suddenly slimy saliva drooled down from its growling mouth, she took a step back another, without seeing her back,

she dashed towards the the bedroom on the first floor, she got in luckily and shut the door. The beast began to slam it's massive body against the door to force it open which made the house tremble to the foundation, the door was too strong for it to get in, she sat beside her bed holding her heart in her lips. The slamming continued, the door began to give way, as she screamed the beast burst into the room.

It flung her across the room, leaving a deep cut in her neck, she fell hard on her stomach, the pains were nerve wrenching, she whimpered slowly.

The big cat began to twitch and growl, it changed into a human, shedding it's furs on the ground,

She tried to look at his face, lying on her back, the light was flickering again, he looked so familiar, but she couldn't tell who he was, she trembled as the man walked towards her.

Tears flowed down her eyes not for her life but those of her twin babies. " Please don't kill me." She begged, the tall man with a menacing look ignored her sorrowful please and locked his powerful hands around her neck, he began to choke her to dead, then Jennifer trashed and tossed with her legs struggling to get out of the chokehold, but the grip was powerful, at a point the light that had become stable began to dim as her breathe was exhausted, her lungs fought hard to keep her alive,for her and her unborn babies.

She could hear Smith calling out her name downstairs and banging at the the big German door, but she had no strength to respond, to his calling

She recognised the man, that was pinning her to the ground, more tears surged out of her eyes,She lay on cold floor as the darkness overtook her and her husband's voice faded away.
