The Creature Inside Me   39
Jordan brought out a tray of pies from the oven and quickly threw the mittens on the counter in his huge kitchen at the colony. He set one in front of Willow on the island in the kitchen. "It's hot" He warned removing the apron he had on. "I like it hot" She gave him a weak smile and picked a fork. He sat opposite her. Willow looked skinny and pale. Her lips are now purplish and her pupils turned blood red. "Why are you looking at me like that?" She let out a dry cough. She was so skinny that her collarbones were very much visible and so were her ribs. "Nothing, you're beautiful" He smiled. She has been living with him in his house for a month now and her recovery is very slow. "Don't flatter me" She chuckled while picking up a mirror. "I look terrible. My mum will kill me" "You look the same to me" He shrugged. "My eyes are red now. I look like a skeleton with a single layer of skin. And I have this annoying urge for blood. Am I still a werewolf?" She sadly asked. "Yes, of c

"Hey little sis!" Leviathan smiled at a poor miserably looking Willow, who was tied to a huge tree in a strange mist forest.Blood dripped from her nose and mouth to soak her white dirty and crumbled up shirt."H-how.." She looked around and spotted Terra not to far from her."Mum!" She called with all the might in her."Shh" Leviathan smirked."What are you doing with my mother!?" Willow cried.She looked over to Terra who was on her knees, wrapped in chains."I swear to you, you'll regret this!" Willow angrily said."But this isn't my fault!" He deeply laughed. "You have yourself to blame" He walked over to her mother and lifted her chin to look her in the eyes."Let her go!" Willow shouted."She's really pretty" He looked back at Willow, who's eyes were filled with furry."I warned you Willow. I really did. I told you not get involved. I begged you to let me handle it with Jordan" He slowly walked back to her."W-what?" She looked confused as tears dripped down her face."I told yo

(Willow's POV)"Hello" A deep masculine voice knocked me out of my deep thoughts."S-sorry" I stammered. Thank God it wasn't my boss.I adjusted myself in the seat and looked up at the fine man staring down at me."Are you okay?" He asked in the sweetest voice."Y-yeah" I found myself stammering again. What is wrong with you Willow?"I was just distracted, please, let me have your items" I quickly changed the topic.He gave me a small smile and emptied his shopping basket on the counter and I did my job as the sales lady.The supermarket I work at is the biggest in the suburb so I get good pay."You look pale, are you sure you're okay?" He asked again.Dude, mind your business, pay up and get the fuck out."I'm good" I tried so hard to smile back. "Cash or card?"Regardless of the extra make up I had on to hide my pale skin, he noticed!I do so well to wear baggy clothes most times to hide my skinny body."Card" He gave me his card but it was double. I looked up at him in confusion
The Creature Inside Me   1
(Willow's POV) We just moved in from New Jersey to Virginia and I'm not quite liking my new house. I begged my mum to let me stay with my friends but she insisted I come with her until I'm able to find myself a job and a house. Still in bed and in my pajamas, I looked around my room trying to think of how I'm gonna unpack all these boxes. Oh hey! I'm Willow. I'm a lazy person when it comes to anything physical or academic. I prefer listening to my music and eating junk food. I don't know how to cook but I know how to bake cookies. Girl's Scouts really helped and that's probably the reason why I'm still living with my mother. Apart from the fact that I don't have a job of course. I am twenty three and I graduated last year from college I'm not valedictorian nor salutatorian. Just one of the average, invisible and not so attractive girls who like to be on their own in school. I am not an introvert nor an extrovert. I love to keep to myself but don't like being quiet. We moved t

(Willow's POV) When I opened my eyes, I found myself in my car in the driveway of my new house. Was that a dream? What happened? How did I get here and who were those mysterious men? And how did they save her life? "Willow!" I heard an aggressive knock on the window and almost jumped. She had the most terrific look on her face and I felt bad. "Hey mum" I lazily said as I got down from the car. "Hey mum? Is that all you got? Get in! Now!" She ordered but I hugged her instead. I don't want to ever feel like I was never going to see her again. "I'm sorry mum" I cried and she patted my hair. That was enough to tell me she wasn't mad anymore. I decided not to tell her about the horrific experience I had with the wolves because it'll only make her worried. "Like I said, they are an interesting set of people. Stella informed the police and formed a search team. She was literally crying" my mum laughed. "That's just dramatic" I laughed with her. "Not when my only child is missing.

(Willow's POV)After a lot of thinking and consideration, I avoided my mum. I couldn't bring myself to look at her even after so many apologies and ways to get me to talk to her.I sat by the river imagining what my life would be like after this. I've made my decision and there's no going back."Finally" I heard his voice. Do I really want this? Am I ready? Well, I perfectly know the answers I needed."Jordan right?" I turned to him. It took me a week to make this decision and I know he waited."I guess she told you everything?" He walked past me. "She still remembers me" "My mum is the last person I want to talk about. She's in my past, I don't wanna hear or see her ever again" I breathed. "I'm ready to accept my identity, that's who I wanna be" I simply said to him because the sooner the better. I saw him smile. "What's amusing?""The fact that you think it's that easy. You don't have a single idea how or what being a wolf is" He rolled his eyes. "Then teach me" I commanded. He qu

(Willow's POV)It wasn't anything like what I watched in the movies. All my life, I thought shifting was just like magic. That's what they made us believe but the pain is absolutely unbearable. Like my soul was ripped out of my body.But I still wasn't able to shift.Jordan looked down on me pathetically and after an ear full of my pleas, he gave me back the necklace.He left angry and I knew it. He is an ass but I felt like I failed him.No matter how hard I try, I can't shift.I parked my car in the driveway and walked into my house.My mother was sipping coffee and was lost in her thoughts."Sweetie!" She gave me a huge hug."I'm only here to ask about my father and the necessary information I need because I'm still not able to shift," I stated."I have little knowledge about shifting sweetheart. How can I possibly know how it's done? Maybe a little patience" She smiled."I took off the necklace, but nothing happened. I thought I'll be able to shift immediately. Jordan tried his be
The Creature Inside Me   5
(Willow's POV) No matter how hard I tried to look for Jordan, I never succeeded. Nobody seemed to know him at all and it became frustrating. Two weeks and I heard nothing from him. I tried to take his advice and move on, get a job but I couldn't bring myself to do it. All I wanted was to be with my kind and it wasn't fair that he is depriving me a chance. I tried to do it myself but I almost died yesterday. It was harder considering the fact that I have no one. I can't even open up to my new best friend and it is killing me. I felt anger. I felt disappointed. If I can't go to Jordan, maybe he will come to me. The last time I shouted his name, he appeared. But I have tried that already. I went to the river eight times just to shout his name but he never came. I even looked deep in the woods but nothing! The only difference was that I was in danger and it was dark. Just maybe, if I scream for help in the woods at night, he might show up. But what if I get into real trouble?
