The Wolf In Me

Chapter 5: Part 2 The voice within

My skin was too small for my body and felt like I wanted to shred it into pieces just like she said what happened to her. I started to think of how much my future must change now that I got into this mess.

I had a normal life and just because of that stupid photo my boss gave me, I am becoming something else. Something I never thought was real. I was wondering if it was all but a dream. I closed my eyes tightly and rubbed them with my shaking hands, and then I opened them just hoping I would find myself in my bedroom waking up from a nightmare.

No, I was still there, naked and alone in that darkness feeling scared and worried at the same time. I started weeping feeling like everything I have worked for has been flushed away in a moment. My job, my friends. What would I say to my boss? Or to mum? Hey ma, I have just been upgraded from human into a wolf. Awesome right? I rolled my eyes, thinking how stupid I was for even thinking of telling her.

That's it, I have to start anew. I wept till I got tired, feeling frustrated with the situation and everything.

"You'll feel lighter, yet stronger. The best feeling would be of the wind touching your skin as you run smelling the freshness of the trees around you. The freedom is worth every inch of pain you are feeling right now. Trust me," Mei said earlier before leaving the room.

A vision came to me where this beautiful woman was wearing a white, more transparent dress that flowed down her thin waste. The light breeze made her light brown hair flow away from her face, revealing her beautiful face. The scent coming from her made me want to follow her. It was Mei. She looked at me and smiled, then turned away walking seductively on the grass that takes you to a large lake. I tried to stand from the ground but I was pushed back by the solid chains that were heavy around my arms and ankles.

"No, don't. It's not safe! Come back," I screamed out as I watched her walking into the lake, disappearing. I was brought back to reality by the clinging of chains.

I tried to stand up from the floor to walk just a little and try to relieve some of the stress I was having but my body felt weak and I fell back on the cold hard ground. The pain was slowly consuming me and I needed to scream out all the stress.

I felt my senses heighten and my vision became more clear in the dark. I closed my eyes and stood there in the silence. I started hearing people walking and chatting from the other side of the door. I tried to walk closer to it to listen to the conversation but the chains pulled my legs and stopped me from getting any further. I felt like a prisoner. I tried pulling the chains but I was growing weaker and weaker and my energy level was getting way to low for me to break free.

I laid on the floor and stared at the ceiling. Images of my friends and family were going through my mind. I imagined myself at a party having fun. My mother and father were there too dancing their asses off and giggling at each other. Aunt Linda sipping down some wine and smiling at her guests feeling proud of herself for being a good organiser. My cousin Katie flirting with my best friend Dean that used to follow me wherever I go. That would be very much typical of her. Then I was snapped out of it when I heard footsteps approaching which brought me back to reality.

I waited for a while before Mei arrived with my phone in her hand and she handed it to me. I noticed the time was eleven o'clock. I was worried about mum as she must have thought something was wrong.

"Don't tell her. Our kind must remain a secret. Promise!" She insisted looking at me with her head held a bit low.
