Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Forty minutes later From a distance, Shelia could be seen dragging something across the ground. She had one hand filled with a pile of fruits and the other holding what seemed to look like a tail.

After quite some time of walking, she finally stopped. Shelia wiped the sweat off of her forehead as her eyes drifted to the boy leaning against the tree.

 “I’m exhausted. Luckily, I didn’t get lost. Are you hungry, Van?” Victor did not go anywhere.

The truth was that, he was capable of walking nonstop for forty minutes.

However, he was completely clueless as to why he did not take his leave. 

Perhaps, he was too injured to walk. Victor tried to convince himself this was the reason he didn’t leave. His eyes followed the sweat dripping from her forehead before looking at what was behind her. 

From a distance, he couldn’t quite tell what she was dragging around.It was a dead wolf. The same exact one that Victor killed.

“Why did you bring that here?” Victor asked in confusion.

There was a smile on Shelia’s lips as she turned to get a glimpse of the dead wolf. 

“For food!”

“Food?”

“Yeah, but the thing is, I have no idea if would meat would be delicious. Still, it’s better than nothing. I’ve thought about it. We can’t always just eat fruits all the time. Besides, you need to eat something good in order to recover from your injuries. That’s why I went back to the place where you fainted last night to check if the wolves were still there.”

Exhaustion ran on Shelia’s nerves. After all, she had been walking for quite some time now. She picked up a fruit and took a generous bite of it. 

“I didn’t anticipate for them to still be there. Maybe God really is looking after us.” Victor’s eyes drifted from the dead wolf towards Shelia. 

Not a single word escaped his lips. The smell of the blood from his throat grew stronger. 

Suddenly, he felt suffocated. He had the urge to cough, but he knew very well that once he did, blood would come out of his mouth. Despite having rested the entire night, he still did not get better. He was barely able to hold on.
