Prologue
How could I ever return to the life I had been living before. I looked at everything and everyone that walked by me on the crowded street. Looking up at the tall buildings, I was mesmerized. I had never stepped foot into the large cities that seemed to be everywhere. I had spent my life, all twenty years of it, in the forest. With my pack. I stopped walking as I felt a light touch on my mind as someone tried reading my thoughts. I looked around, panicked.
If they had found me I was definitely dead. My eyes scanned everyone, but no one seemed to be staring directly at me. I turned on my heel and kept walking down the sidewalk. My heart was racing in my chest. When I rounded the corner I leaned up against the wall and tried to catch my breath. I mentally slapped myself, 'How are you going to function in the city if your panicking every two minutes?' My wolf screamed at me. I looked around again, ignoring my wolf as she paced back and forth inside of me. 'We should have stayed in the woods.' She said as she faded into the darkness.
Closing my eyes and taking a deep breath I started walking again. I would get away from them. They would never find me, especially in such a large city. I stumbled as my eyesight became blurry and someone bumped into me making me fall into an alley. I tried getting to my feet but I couldn't seem to get my legs to work, 'Come on Megara, you have to get up' my wolf whined as I looked in front of me and there stood a man. With a sinister grin he lifted me into his arms and walked half way down the alley before opening a door and throwing me in. I flailed in the air before I landed on the concrete floor. With a groan I looked up and saw the door closing, "No I didn't escape my pack just to be caught by you." I yelled and stood.
I wasn't quick enough and the door slammed closed. I took a deep breath and tried to stay calm. I was in total darkness, without a clue as to where I was exactly when I heard something growling low in its throat. I looked around even though I couldn't see anything. When out of nowhere two red orbs appeared. I screamed at the top of my lungs and ran towards where the door was. I didn't reach it on my own. The owner of those red eyes slammed me into it making the door rattle. I couldn't find enough courage inside of me to shift into my wolf as I was dragged away from the door by my shoulder. I could feel blood running down my shoulder as it growled and chomped down harder. I screamed again at the pain. I was loosing consciousness fast when the door was blown of its hinges. I closed my eyes, I was getting weaker I could feel it as I passed out from loosing too much blood.
