Felicity

I thrash around at whoever has blind folded me, bound my hands together and taped my mouth. They don’t respond and keep pulling me through the forest. They’re having a hard enough time pulling me through, I can tell that much. So maybe they’re of small body? All I remember is getting up to puke and then all is black. I just woke up moments ago.

“Almost there,” the person says gruffly. Then the dragging stops and I’m on a cold floor. The person is breathing heavily and I can hear them slump against the wall. I can hear them lean over, hence I shrink back. The tape is ripped off of my lips. If I had a lady moustache growing, it would be long gone.

“I’m pregnant,” I blurt out. There’s silence.  “Please don’t hurt my baby.”

“They raped you?” a small young voice says.

“Who?” I breathe. The blind fold is taken off of me and my vision is blurry for a moment. I blink a few times to look at my kidnapper. I almost do a double take. She can’t be more than fifteen. Baby face, pale skin and wild white blonde hair.

“The guys I took you from, they raped you,” she states, blinking at me. I shake my head.

“No, no, they’re my friends,” I pause, staring at her, “take me back.”

She gulps and studies her sleeve, “I’m afraid I can’t do that.”

“And why the hell not?” I grit my teeth. She flicks her eyes up at me from beneath her messy hair.

“They need to find you,” she rubs her nose with the back of her hand, “the person I’m doing this for needs them for something and they said that you’d be the best bait,” she mumbles.

“Jesus, kid, how old are you?” I question.

“Fifteen,” her voice is barely audible. “How did you get me out of there without them smelling me?”

Her face lights up, interested as she reaches behind her and pulls out a bottle that smells so familiar. “Aconitum, or you might know it as Wolfsbane,” she tells me.

“That’s highly toxic,” I shriek.

“For humans,” she gives me a pointed luck. “Throws off any scent to any werewolf. Knocks them right off the track.”

“You’re changing next year, aren’t you?” I say in a softer tone of voice. She smiles at me and nods. I sigh. This kid isn’t going to do anything. She doesn’t know anything, but I’ll pursue it.

“Do you know what the person you’re doing this for wants from them?” I shuffle a little closer to her so that our knees are touching.

She shakes her head, putting the concoction back behind her. “I’m sorry.”

I let out a deep breath, “it’s okay. Not like you conducted this kidnapping yourself,” I bite my lip, “what’s your name, kid?”

“Tammy.”

Ironically a cute innocent name for my kidnapper. Lovely. “Well Tammy, looks like we’re going to be spending a lot of time together. Want to tell me a bit about yourself?”

She shrugs, looking down, “there’s not a lot to tell.”

“You could start by telling me why you’re not in school and working for someone who makes you kidnap people?”

She looks up at me, mouth agape, “you’re my first.”

I roll my eyes, “what an honour.”

“They pulled me out of school, claiming to be related to me and knowing my father,” she rubs her nose with her sleeve again.

“Who are they?”

“They told me not to tell you,” she sighs, hunching her back and studying her shoes.

“Then why didn’t you ask your father if he knows them?” I persevere.

“I can’t,” it came out in a whisper.

“Why? Is he dead? Did he leave you? Why, Tammy?” I plead with her.

“I just can’t!” she snaps and storms out of the cave. Good one Felicity, you scared her off. Jesus, I am turning into a bitch. I look down at my stomach. Fucking pregnancy and it’s fucking hormones.

Jett


Walking in on Sam giving the air a hand job was one of the strangest sights I have come across. But I brushed it off, he’s been under so much stress lately. Hell, haven’t we all? Not like I willingly gave up everything so that I could run for my life as a wolf. Sam looks at the air in front of him and back at me.

“I’m sorry, Jett, I didn’t mean to snap earlier,” he tells me, coming over. I give him a small smile.

“It’s okay. You needed to let off steam,” I open my arms out to him and he walks into them, burying his face in the crook of my neck. I dare reach my hands up his shirt. He jumps back, looking behind him as though he heard something.

“Sam, you okay?”

He gulps and nods, growing pale. “Yeah, fine.”

“You look like a wasp just flew up your butt,” I comment, crossing my arms over my chest. Unlike usual, he doesn’t crack a smile. Not even one.

“Feli is out there, and we will find her, okay?” I tell him firmly. He raises his eyebrows at me.

“And how would you know this?” he questions.

“Because I am all knowing alpha,” I outstretch my arms and legs and pull my stance in what Sam and I know as the Jesus Christ pose. “See? I’m in the position and everything.”

That one earned a smile.

“Are you hungry?” I ask him and he nods sheepishly. I smile, “I’ll go do the rest of the bacon for you.”

I give him a quick peck on the cheek and jog off in the direction of camp. Moments later I hear Sam speaking again.

“No you cannot have the bacon!” he says, exasperated. I let out a breath in a whistle. All this stress has certainly gotten to him at this point if he’s talking to himself. 

Once I reach camp, I put the food on for Sam and just wait. A while later, just as the bacon is done, Sam walks in and sits beside me. I hand him the frying pan and he picks up a strip. Then with his other hand, he swats something muttering, “no.”

He looks up at me, noticing that I had seen the whole thing. He gulps and looks down at the bacon, “flies. Everywhere.”

“Sam there was no fly…”

He looks back up at me, his eyes bloodshot from lack of sleep. He nods repeatedly, “oh there was a fly. A big, fat, annoying fly,” he snarls. I nod, scrunching my eyebrows together.

My mate has gone crazy.

I updated. WOOHOO. 

Picture: Tammy. 

Song: something that reminded me of this.

Sorry if this chapter was crap. I felt bad about not updating and hence, wrote this crap-fest. Hopefully it'll get better. 

No vote limit for the next chapter. I'll just say that the more votes I receive and comments I get, I feel encouraged to write sooner.

Love you all <3
