A Stranger In The Dark

I shifted mid-run, feeling the thing behind me run faster. It wasn’t a rogue I knew that much. I couldn’t see where I was going, but I kept running, my ankle screamed at me in protest, and I stumbled a few times.

Although my mind screamed at me to turn and look at what was chasing me, a basic instinct. One which was of no use to me I wouldn’t be able to see. I hit a wall and growled, turning I knew I had to fight, or I was done for. I lashed out but I was knocked to the ground. I could hear it approaching as I got up once again. I felt it sniffing me and I tensed, did it not want to kill me. I was wrong, the next thing I felt was something bite into my neck making me howl in pain. The wound stung and I felt my body force itself to shift. Nly shoulder was aching painfully.

A loud growl ripped through the air, and I felt something push my attacker off me. I couldn’t see but I could hear a fight going on. Biting, growling and the sounds of bones breaking.

“Someone who fucking saved you pup,” came the most delicious voice I had ever heard. My heart skipped a beat at the rugged tone that seemed to make my skin hum.

“Kia!” I hear Raven’s voice and the sound of running. Before I could say anything, I felt the man leave and I wished he hadn’t.

“Oi! What the…” Damon said “Fuck Kia!” Liam said and I felt him pulling his shirt over me before scooping me into his arms.

“She’s injured. Oh god.” Raven said, sounding panicked.

“I’m fine,” I said, sounding weaker than I wanted.

“What the hell was that…” Raven asked as I felt myself being placed in the car; Raven got in next to me pulling me into her arms.
