SWNOVELS Chapter Chapter Five: On the loose
I stare at my reflection in the nearby creek and sigh out; I don't look like the girl I was even a week ago. My once black hair has mud caked into it, making it an ugly brown colour that has my hair looking dull and lifeless. My green eyes that used to look like the green in the forest is now a dull, lifeless lime green colour. I roll my eyes and jump into the creek, fully clothed. I am back in no man’s land, and if anyone comes out ready to kill me, I don't want to be strake naked like the day I was born. I run my hand through my hair, allowing the mud to disappear. My once injured leg is much better due to werewolf speed and being in my stupid mates’ presence.
"Hey, you there, what are you doing?" I hear a gruff voice making me put on a cold hard look.
"bathing, you got a problem with that?" I question already knowing the answer, but I might as well play around with them a bit before I die. "that is our only source of water, and we don't need to be drinking your mud and sweat" he growls, I watch as another lot of rouges come out of the trees and bushes some I recognise as the group that tried to eat bens sister.
"hey, that's the weird-smelling girl" one of them calls.
"didn't know I smelt that bad, glad I am taking a bath" I smile out.
"I will kill you" the first wolf howls before lunging at me; I hold my hands out as they do in the titanic only to find his head in my hand “sorry human, can't let us die’ i hear summers voice in my head making me growl at her.
“did you want to die summer?" i question
i did but Matthew awake, his wolf calling’ she snarls in my head.
'he is not our mate anymore’ i snarl back making her roll her eyes.
“yes but I don't want to die anymore’ she states
“you are bipolar" i state before shutting off our link.
"ops, sorry" I smile cheekily making everyone run back into the cover, I look down and notice the once muddy water is now covered in blood making me groan in annoyance. I was enjoying washing my skin clean but not any more stupid wolf.
I hop out of the water and start shaking my body off, deciding to go for a run. I drop the head and strip my clothing off before tying it to my leg. I jump into the air and shift into my wolf.
“freedom’ summer screams in my head before taking control and running around loose in no man’s land, I feel our body tense as bens scent starts heading towards us, what the hell, why is he back in no mans land? I run towards his pack line and notice his scent is strongest on his side. I notice a wolf smelling like him jump out. He immediately shifts back and stares at me.
"Erika come across, stay with us. Please, we don't feel like its a good idea for you to run loose. you can have all the freedom you want just, please come across” ben begs making summer shake her head no and runoff in the other direction
"wait, please" I hear him begin the distance.
“can we rest?" i question summer feeling drained.
“sure can human’ summer replies before finding a bush to curl up in “night human’ is the last thing I head before I drift off to sleep. *dream*
I walk through the doors of a small log cabin and sigh in relief
"what are you girls doing, I told you not to run off like that" I smile before wrapping them up in my arms
"daddy called us for a meal” they giggle before rushing into the kitchen where I see Matthew standing over the stove dishing up tea.
"What did you make us dear mate?" I question in disbelief. Matthew
turns around and stabs me through the stomach.
"dead wolf."
