Hard, cold...floor? Where am I? Wait! , What the hell happened? Now that was the main question. Getting up from the floor I stand to walk a bit, I realizing I can't see a thing.

"What the?" I mumble when take a few steps and feel bars, metal bars. Is this...am I in a cage? What the fuck! Why am I locked in a cage? A flash of a man stabbing me came to my mind as I feel something tight. I touch my stomach and feel that my wound had been band-aid.

"Who...who did this? What's going on?" My head is full of questions but mostly filled with blocked memory. I door opening wakes me from my thoughts, quickly, I walk to the end till my back touches the cold stoned wall.

"Good, you're awake" someone said walking and stopping in front on the other side of the bars, I'm guessing is a guy cos of his voice.

"How are you feeling?" he ask. I opened my mouth, but close it fast. Wait, why was he asking me this? "I ask you a question" he said as he hit the bars

"Well..." I breathe out nearly hearable.

"You lost a lot of blood." Now that I remembered. There's was a paused until he talked again saying:

"We found this" he added as he drew something at me from the floor. It took me a while to recognize it; the neckless. I grabbed it and dusted the dirt off it from floor. I stared at is half-moon figure. I ignore that commend and ask:

"Who are you?" I looked up "Why am I here?" asking again a little stronger. I needed to know why I was here and why I can't remember. He better tell me.

"Hey! If it wasn't for us you'll be probably be dead right now, so I ask the question, understood?" His voice had power that made me jump a little. "What was the last thing you remember?" He ask a little calmer yet that's what I want to know, my mind is black.

"I don't know "I whispered so low I thought he didn't heard me....I wrong again.

"Think harder" he insisted, as I could feel he was about to break the bars as they sounded. Forcing my mind to go back, it took me a few minutes then...then a memory dinner came to me and...

"I was walking home after work when a man stared following me, it was dark and lonely" I paused trying to think about what happened next.

"And?" he added after a while, probably annoyed.

"I ended in the woods running from him, I didn't know where I was. I just wanted to escape him. Then something happened, I did....he hurt me and then I heard growling and...and that's it.

"I don't remember anything after that" I hold my breath so my I wouldn't let out a sob as the tears came out. I decided not to tell about the force field or whatever it was; I'll keep to myself.

I felt the pain in my chest, also agony.

"Well, you're safe from him now" his voice woke me up and I stared at him in confusion.

Save?

"Wha-what did you do?" I ask with stutter.

"That doesn't concerned you." He answer fast and very serious.

"Why not?!" Curiosity bet me, plus what are they going to do to him...to me?

He said in silent. Obviously he wasn't going to tell me...

"What about me?" My heart race with just the thought of what they were going to with me .

"Well, in your case; it's complicated" He let out a deep breath.

"How's that?" But I insistent before he could continue.

"Let me talk, would you?" I stayed in silent as he inhales and says:

"As far as we know you were chase to our territory without knowing, also that he was rapping you when we got there. Adding the fact that you got hurt-"

"And was it necessary to lock me in a cage?!" I cut him off angry. They can't just lock me like some kind of animal.

"Yes it was. Now can you stop interrupting me?!" he shout it louder. I wanted to say something, but I didn't want to make things worst, so let him, as he continued not wanting to get him angrier than he already was.

"I decided to wait for the Alpha to say what to do with you"

"Alpha?" the question came out without thinking yet I felt tingles in my body for no reason.

Weird...

"That doesn't-"

"Oh bloody hell. Who the hell is that?!" I yelled, interrupting...again.

"Listen you little-" I closed my eyes prepared for the yelling insult and warning, but he stop in paused and stayed silent...for a long while. I thought he left but I still see his shadow and an intimating presences against the bars.

"You'll stay here until he returns then it will be decided what to do with you" he said very cold and serious changing his voice and attitude. What was with the change of attitude all the time?

"Wait, what do you mean? You can't keep me here, how long will I be here? I'm talking to you!" I couldn't help but yelled at him ever more while I heard his footsteps fade.

"Quite!" I jumped of fright as I he growled at me.

What the..?

"You will stay here in silent until he returns. So get comfortable. It might take a while" he chuckled and I can swear he smirked as the noisy door closed, tears falling down my cheeks as I hold myself from screaming.

Anger.

Fuck I'm so mad right now. This is not happening. Breath, stay calm. Don't let fear take over.

"You can't do this to me. Who do you think you are?" I yelled to see if he comes back or at least someone would hear me...nothing.

"Why? Why me? Asshole" I mumble as I couldn't control my anger mix with frustration and everything else. Pushing the wall like 3 times hopefully to drain out some of it. My knuckles hurt and I bet that there bleeding and there blood stain on the wall.

Not that it matter.

Holding my hand I slide down to the cold ground against the wall, hugging my knees to my chest. Felling my body tired and weak, regretting I wish I could remember what has happened.

I lay on the floor looking at the neckless that belong to my mother. I wished she was here, she always knew what to do.

Even on the simple problems.

My eye lids became to close and an image of the dream guy came to me. I wish he was real or at least I could dream about it him again. To escape all of this. In the dream he felt so warm and I felt safe.

I wish you were here...now.

Remembering him and the dreams that I had about him, including the one from this morning I found myself thinking:

Please come for me...I need you.

And I felled asleep.
