Corruption (SalemxMaleReader)

The Whisperer

A/N: Hello, my dear readers and followers! ^_^ 

So if any of you are wondering or for those who didn't see my post, my story's been removed without notice by Wattpad.

Pfft. Like that'd stop me.

I wouldn't say everything's bad though. I've been thinking of rewriting my story even before the deletion. Let's be honest, my writing was shite and the plot was also shite. HAHAHAHAHA! Gotta thank Wattpad for the fresh start.

Also, a curious question. 

Despite my story being somewhat shitty, what exactly did you like about our story? 

Just curious.

Without further ado, let the rewrite of our first book, BEGIN!

/-/

Fire and smoke greyed the skies above. My nose feels so burnt and heavy, the smell chokes me. 

Everything around me was burning. The homes I once played within were gone. The happy merchants and parents were now glaring at me with unbridled fear.

And within their eyes of fear, I saw rage.

All I saw were the frightened gazes and angry glares aimed at me and the creature I clutched tightly within my arms. Growls emanated from behind me yet I dared not look. For I knew they hungered not for me.

But for the ones in front of me.

Someone pointed at me. Brig, his name was. He was one of the town bullies that loved to pick on me. His eyes let out a steady stream of tears as he held onto his dangling arm that was nearly torn from its elbow joint.

"He's the one that brought them here!"

What had I done wrong? None of these was my fault. I didn't bring them here! They were the ones who attacked me!

"I-I didn't-!"

"Monster! You're protecting monsters!"

"You brought them here, you piece of shit!"

Everyone began screaming and shouting at me. From the children to their parents, everyone was angry Their faces turned black and my head started feeling light. As the screams started to overwhelm me, the growls behind me started to become roars. I stretched out my shaky arm, stopping them from moving.

"P-please, listen to me-"

But from the corner of my vision, I saw something thrown at me, something gray; a rock.
