Damien...

He didn't even hesitate before trying to find me as soon as he woke...he held me tightly in his arm as if afraid that I might just disappear. I wrapped my arms around him and took a shaky breath.

He's awake...awake and alive... Opening my eyes I looked up at him but he refused to pull away. I was relieved he wasn't hurt, and At least he wasn't going absolutely berserk...

Henry quickly got to his feet standing up and, watched us surprised. "Sera..."

In an instant, Damien spun around snarling in his direction. This startled him and Henry backed up against the wall.

"Damien no! He's a friend! Please we have to get out of here!" Grabbing his arm he stopped before looking down at me.

"Sera wait!"

He snarled at Henry again before sweeping me up off my feet. I squeaked blushing and wrapped my arms around the back of his neck as he held me bridal style.

Before I knew what was happening he raced up the flight of stairs as Henry called out for us. Thomas was coming down the stairs followed by the two men who dragged me down to their basement.

"Stop right there!" Damien only snarled in their direction before making a break for the door.

Someone opened the door as they came inside, and had to dive out of the way as Damien rushed past, bringing us to the outside. The sky was grey and cloudy, I knew I had been down there for a while but I didn't think I had been locked up all night. The people outside stopped what they were doing and looked at us both curious and confused. Soon enough of few of the men in the village stepped up as if to try and stop us. Damien only snarled in their direction before setting me down on my feet. I held onto him as Henry and the others followed us outside. Now we were surrounded.

"Just leave us alone! Let us leave!" Some of them started stepping closer in turn earning some very angry growling from Damien.

Thomas stepped closer looking a bit frustrated with the situation. Damien quickly faced him hiding me behind him, as if he was the bigger threat among the many people.

"You need to stand down rogue!" He stepped closer and I could see Damiens body grow tenser. He was about to transform!

I grabbed onto his arm in an attempt to keep him from doing so unless absolutely necessary. If he hurts anyone then there's no chance of us getting out of here.

Thomas stepped closer and the familiar heavy feeling started to fill the air, this time it was so strong I became weak to my knees, and almost couldn't stand. What is going on? Was Thomas somehow responsible for the pressure I was feeling?

Everyone seemed to step back, obviously being affected by it as well, but I knew it was being directed towards us. Damien however hardly seemed fazed, in fact, it only seemed to make him angrier and in turn, he stepped forward letting out a warning of his own, an animalistic roar directed at Thomas. Everyone seemed shocked as the pressure in the air completely disappears, and they all had to step back.

Thomas looked at Damien in complete shock, he didn't expect this...he must have thought Damien would back away.

Henry looked absolutely horrified as well as a few others. "How is he not submitting?"
