This was him, I thought. It kept playing over and over again in the back of my head— Valdomore. This was my chance to learn about him, maybe something could trigger my memories. "You do not look so surprised... I guess my name was brought up in a conversation?" "Doesn't ring a fucking bell," I snarled, "Careful wolf... I know you might not remember this, but I have a... The thing for beasts with potty mouths. And that's interesting because I heard a rumor about you and your— awakening, it stirring up trouble in the underworld, and the humans," "And what?" I stared down at him, "Should I feel special?" "Oh, darling but you are special... You somehow survived your execution, and even though I tried getting rid of— it, you somehow got... the gift," What did he mean he tried getting rid of it? And what was this 'it' he is referring to?&n

Griping firmly on my neck, I gasped for air as the vampire twice my size hoisted me off the ground, Al and Amber were too busy with fights of their own to see my struggle. Fisting him repeatedly in the ribs, he groaned in pain staggering back as I fell to the ground, "You are clearly outnumbered hybrid... Give up now and our Lord might spare mercy on you," "And you are clearly outmatched," Amber bit off his head from behind, spitting it out with a face of disgust as she dragged her tongue across the grass, "Vampire blood is just bland and tasteless," she shifted into her human form, gagging. The remaining three vampires disappeared into a black mist, one looking directly in my eyes before vanishing, he hated me... They all did, Vampires, W.I.K.D, rogues wolves... They all hated me for reasons I don't know why, "Hey," Al jogged over to us, "You guys ok?" "Yeah

"What— what do you mean... My pack, I— I can't go back into another portal..."                   "Listen..." Amber cut me off, "We don't have time to explain, we have to jump in right now... We have fought enough for the last few days... We need a safe place right now," Saying nothing I nodded my in understanding, they need to understand that all of this is still new to me and I need time... A lot of time, "You ready?" Al murmured to me, "Yeah, I— am ready," Taking my hand, Amber squeezed it firmly, her grip was filled with so much fear and worry. Where ever we are about to go, Amber was scared... And that terrified me because Amber is the bravest person I know. "Ready?" She looked over at me, her glossy eyes filled with excitement, the fake smile she t

Flashback I begged over and over again, trying to convince these people that I was no wolf but a scientist, but they didn't care what I have to say. Men came in daily tortured me, shouting that I should I shift, but shift to what? After a few weeks, closer to a month they electrocuted me, under a full moon. And that's when it happened, I shifted. My body ached all over and I begged for it to stop, but I didn't. White fur traveled up my arms and legs until it took over my body, I was no longer I girl with dark hair and brown, I was a big dog, with fur and red eyes. Everything that went blank, I woke the next day naked, the men who tortured me for weeks bodies surrounded me, well, what was left of them. The beast I turned into that night shred them to pieces and I have no memory of it. I remember being angry, the type of anger I remember having as a child... A teenager, but never acted out on it, I suppressed that anger for a long time until I cou
