Pertemis: A Wolf’s Tale
Chapter 2 Secrets of The Tale
Artemis's POV
I froze on my spot.
It happened just so fast that I didn't know what to do. The monster growled, trying to bend the silver bars. It's teeth glowing in the dark, like the razor of a saw, trying to cut the metal bars off. It's eyes were on fire. Red and glowing full of anger and madness.
The monster was no bear, but no wolf either. It was big, two and a half meters at least. It's head was a head of a black wolf, the ones with steroids. The shaggy hair grown out around its neck down to it back and arms like a black warm furry coat in winter. It's chest were human, pitch black skin, but smooth. Though there was skin fur cover it. In the end, its torso looked like an athletic gorilla. Its hands grabbed on the bars, trying to break it off and the claws were the last things I wanted to touch. Sharp like knives but hard like diamonds and they seemed like its hands had grown fangs.
Where the hell did this thing come from? I screamed inside my head. I wanted to scream out, but my jaw kept clenching like it wanted to break my teeth into pieces. I knew what it was, the moment I looked into its eyes. It was a werewolf.
It pulled all my courage, rising the bow and pulled my arrow backward once more. My eyes stared deep into the monster's. My breath was trembling, like a had a minor panic attack. My fingers were about to let the arrow go when a voice came to interrupt.
"ARTEMIS STOP!"
I turned to my side and Leto was there, breathing hardly. I lowered my bow, but the monster didn't lower its anger.
"C-can you explain why you have a werewolf on your island?" I stuttered pointing at the monster.
"I will tell you" she said. "I will tell you everything but please! Please don't kill him."
She was scared. It was written all over her face despite the face she was trying to calm me down. Like a cop trying to take a gun from a criminal through conversations.
"And why shouldn't I kill it?" I breathed hard, about to rise my bow again.
"Because..." She paused, her lips trembling, trying hard not to spill it out. But she looked up at me slowly. "Because he is your brother..."
Every last word of her like a hammer bagging on my ears. I let out a gasp.
"What do you mean?"

"Ok can you explain for me now?" I sat on the chair, more like threw my self on it.
