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
The Creature Inside Me 2
(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?
The Creature Inside Me 6
(Willow's POV) I felt his eyes as they bore into my skin. I quickly sat up and hugged my knees to cover my breasts. Why won't the earth open and swallow me? I wished I could disappear. I didn't dare look up because I was pink with embarrassment. What is going through his head? Is he looking at me or looking away like the gentleman he is supposed to be? I gathered enough courage to look up and he was staring right at me. My heart jumped to the pit of my stomach. He didn't say anything and we just locked eyes. I couldn't read his eyes. "Have the decency to look away" I glared at him. "Nothing I haven't seen before" He casually said. Was he for real? "I can't go home like this" I tried to shield myself with my hands but it was useless. "Get up" He ordered. I blinked and waited for him to make sense but he just stared back. "W...why?" I stammered. "I can't go home like this, '' I repeated. "Okay then. I guess you'll be spending the night here. I'm leaving" He took a few s
The Creature Inside Me 7
He looked out the French windows with a pen clicking in between his fingers. His current investigation failed and he is stuck. Regardless of how hard he tries, it always leads to a dead end. "Jordan" A man with brown eyes walked in. "What's new?" Jordan swirled his chair to face his beta and friend. "We have nothing" The man replied with a slight bow of his head. "And Willow?" "She is at the river, as usual" "You left her alone? You know she should never be alone" Jordan stood up. He knew he couldn't trust Willow to be on her own. It's either she seeks for trouble or trouble seems to find her so he had to keep a close eye on her. "Don't you think you should bring her here? She is a werewolf" Japh said. "She doesn't belong here. Not every werewolf stays with its pack. Do you know how many wolves choose humanity over their wolf?" "But she wants to be here, that's the difference!" Japh exclaimed. "I know what's best for her because she doesn't know it," Jordan replied. "A
The Creature Inside Me 8
Willow couldn't tell what was happening because she was blinded by tears and speechless with fright.Two of the men shifted but Jordan didn't.One moment she was crying in a corner, the next moment, Jordan and a brown wolf bashed in tossing and stabbing the three drunks who tried to rape her.Jordan looked straight at her. His eyes filled with anger as blood dripped down his hands.As much as she was glad that he saved her, she dreaded going close to him. Something wadded her off but she still found herself wrapping her two shaking hands around him.Japh shifted and put on some of the clothes he found in the cabin. He gave Jordan a cloth to clean his hands.She quietly cried on his chest and for a moment, he let her until he painfully grabbed her arm."I regret ever looking for you" Jordan growled and dragged her out. Japh cautiously followed them."I just wanted to…""You didn't have to do anything!" He let her go with a slight push. "You are a problem!""We need to keep moving guys"
