Theo's Secret

Almost Kidnapped!

The werewolf smirks down at me. I shiver as he hovers his claws on my thigh. He comes closer to my face, making me lean back. He breathes out, making me look away. He then growls in a deep voice, "We'll have to finish this later."

Before I can process it, he stabs all five claws in my stomach. I let out a loud pained scream. The werewolf runs off, leaving me bleeding in the woods at midnight.

Theo's POV:

I lead Scott and the others away from Asher. I don't want them to know about us. I just need to finish school so I can get a good job so I can take Asher away from here. Then we can be free.

Liam walked on my left and Scott on my right. Isaac and Derek walked behind us. Liam started complaining, "You should really stop walking around in the woods at midnight. It's weird and dangerous." I nod, rolling my eyes and ignoring the baby wolf.

Scott and Liam go on to talk about the next lacrosse game. I ignore them like usual, in my own world.

Suddenly an ear shattering scream catches our attention. It almost breaks my imaginary heart as I easily recognize the person it came from. I take off running, much faster and more determined than the others.

I run past the place I left Asher. Soon I make it to the place that has the boy on the ground. He's breathing fast and hard. I crash down, placing my hands firmly on his wounds. He grunts and whimpers at the force.

His wide eyes stare at me with tears slipping down, "Theo?" I nod, trying to keep it together.

The others jump out from the trees. Isaac gasps and runs forward, "Ash? Oh my god!" He grabbed his brother, holding him close. Isaac looked at me, also trying to keep it together.

I spoke to Isaac, trying to remain calm in my voice, "I'm gonna pick him up. We have to get him to a hospital." Isaac nodded weakly.

I breathed out, deeply. I moved one hand to grab Asher's, setting it on his wound to keep him somewhat patched up. I slip a shaky arm under his legs and my other one under his back. I stand up and hold him close as we start sprinting out of the woods.

We make it to where my truck was parked on the edge of the reserve. Scott pulls the back down so we can hop in the bed of the truck. Once I have Asher securely on my lap, I throw my keys to Liam. He catches them but stares at me, "But you don't let anyone drive your truck!"

I yell, "Just fucking drive!" He hops in, turning on the engine and speeding out of park. We all jerk at the force. Scott and Isaac with me in the bed and Derek next to Liam in the truck.

We were all so worried, we didn't think about leaving Derek of all people with Liam. And we also didn't think about the fact that Liam doesn't have a license...

We could hear Derek yelling directions in the front but the truck still swerved all over the road. I held Asher, praying to him, because I'm an atheist and he's the closest to a god there is.

Eventually the truck halted outside of the familiar building. I jumped out and rushed inside, hoping we made it in time.
