Chapter 1
A prickle runs down my spine.
I look around the room they have been keeping me. It's not like I can really see anything in this darkness, but I do try to make out the room. I can only say that I'm being held in a dungeon.
The room is very small and eerie. Chains lay on the floor, which are attached to my wrist. Hammered metal shackles lying on the floor are locked around my ankles. There is a strange coldness that lingers around the room, making me shudder. The smell of suffering drifts through the room.
I’ve lost count of how many days or months I have been in this hell . Probably because I'm constantly swimming in and out of consciousness. The torture is getting too much for me to handle. I don't even know what they want. Whenever I ask, the only reply I get is " You have something that we want". What could I possibly have that they want so badly.
When I tell them that I don't know what they are talking about. They refuse to believe me. I have no idea what they want me to tell them. If I know what they want, I will give it to them willingly if I can.
Do they really think I want to be here? Or do they think I love being their punching bag? They torture me until I am unconscious; they break my bones knowing that I will always heal and that the healing process it is torture.
At first I thought, my pack will come looking for me, but after some time I realize that I am alone, no one is coming. There are times when I just want to give up.
I want the darkness to swallow me. Then at least I think I will be free from this excruciating pain. The torment is getting to be too hard for me to handle. And there were times when I still hope that I will get out of here, but that little hope is slowly fading away as time passes by.
I hear the door open which snaps me out of my trance. I know they are back for more, but they don't know what I have in store for them. For the past few days, I can feel the strength returning to my body slowly. They may have broken me, but not my wolf. He's always here, telling me to stay strong. The time will come when I can fight back.
"Do you reckon he's awake? We really need to get him to start talking" I hear a female voice say. I don’t bother looking up because I know her face is covered. I don’t know what she looks like.
"I've had enough of talking. He’s been here for too long, and we still haven't got him to tell us or give us what we want” says the voice that causes all my pain and misery. I can't remember what he looks like. I have only seen him without his mask once and that was when he took me.
“Let's just get rid of him boss, I don’t think he is the right one” the female replies.
Shit, what do I do. I don’t want to die. I try shuffling back, but it is impossible since I can move. I wiggle around frantically trying to get out of this chain. The man laughs at me while making his way towards me.
As soon as he grabs me, I gather all the strength that I have left in me and I start to fight back. I let my wolf Ruka take over and I can feel another presence also taking over my body.
Shock is written all over my kidnapper's face, he didn't expect that. The woman runs out of the room screaming for help. I know I only have a short period of time before the men come crashing into the room to take me down, I have to work fast.
I manage to knock the man unconscious before anyone comes into room; all I have left to do is run. I run as fast as I can, taking out anyone that gets in my way. I know I am too weak to shift into my wolf but I have to get away.
I bust through the doors and run for my life, I can hear them shouting and following me trying to chase me down. I have no idea where I am, there are too many trees to know what direction I am heading. I run to the point of exhaustion.
I collapse and let the darkness surround me.
