The Curse of the Silenced Wolf

Chapter 25: The Ambush

Amelia POV

I had trailed off from Ralf and Luke and was looking at some of other rubble. I had found a section that hadn't been demolished by the fire. I noticed the symbol Bree and Beth had been talking about carved into the wall that was still standing. I shifted through the debris. I lifted a piece on concrete and saw something. I lifted it and pushed it away. I found a strange withered semi burned book. I wiped the cover and saw many symbols on the cover.

I carefully opened it. There were blood stains on the some of the pages. I couldn't read any of it.

"Amelia RUN! HIDE" I could hear Luke voice echo through my head. I could feel he was in pain since he marked me and we mind linked...

I didn't want to run. I wanted to run towards him. I knew he was in danger, but the tone of his fading voice seemed urgent that I shouldn't. I quickly grabbed the book and took off. I ran as fast as I could. I saw a hollow log and quickly crawled into it. I held my breath.

I could hear foot steps running all around me.

"Find her! she has to be here. spread out" a mans voice growled. I could hear the growls of wolves maybe like 2-3 fade out as they ran. I covered my mouth with my hand. I could hear the shuffling of feet and then they began to depart...

shit. shit. shit what do I do.

I sat there for a few more minutes making sure not to hear anything. I slowly peaked my head out of the log.

No one

I quietly crawled out. I lay the book back inside the log.

I gotta find Bree, Alcide, Luke or Ralf...

I had never been more quiet in my entire life. I walked back to the rubble. I could hear faint voices a little ways away.

I finally found Luke's body. He was laying unconscious with a dart stuck in his neck. I pulled it out and barely got it to my face when I smelled the Wolfsbane.

Shit....Think..Think... I began to slowly drag his body. I found a small pond with a bank. I slid his body down the slope. I covered him with sand, dirt, mud, leaves, sticks, anything I could find and reach quickly.

I'll be right back.

I walked around and couldn't find anyone else. I began to very VERY quietly ease over to where I heard the voices. I stood far away behind a tree but could barely make out two figures and some wolves.

Shit that's Bree...talking to...I can't tell.

I scanned the area. No sign of Alcide. I saw a couple of vehicles parked across the way.

Shit....

I slowly made a giant semi circle. I stopped every so often to make sure no one heard me. I opened up the door and saw Alcide slumped in the seat.

Fuck. I quickly looked around.

Fuck he's heavy

I had barely got my arm around him when I heard, "Grab her body. We're taking it back Rais's. Grab the rest of them too and find that bitch"

Body...oh no Bree...Oh no us...shit shit shit what do I do

I quickly pushed his body back into the vehicle. I climbed into the front seat.

Thank fucking god yes key

I quickly started the vehicle and put it in drive.

I drove like a bat out of hell. Dodging through trees and hitting every bump, limb, small tree in the way. I finally made it to a paved road and reached top speed.
