*9:45pm*

The forest was damp from the rain that poured and all the animals seemed to be nonexistent. All around around her she heard the howls of the hunting wolves.

She hurriedly ran through the forest, frantically looking for a place to hide. The moon's light was her enemy for it weakened her and strengthened the wolves.

Adrenaline and fear pumped through her veins as she pushed past branches and jumped over rocks. She was swift and well balanced.

She was running at 80mph but the wolves were gaining speed, and they'd catch her soon for the alpha had come to help.

The multicolored wolf had kept up with her, killing her hopes of an escape. Come on. Don't give up. She pushed her legs harder, going faster than she'd ever gone before. Everything became blurrier as she picked up speed, putting distance between her and the wolves.

The alpha snarled and ran faster to keep up with the leech. She was fast but soon all this running would be for nothing. No vampire, no matter how old or how strong, could escape him. Many have tried and all have failed. The gods must have been on his side because he chased the leech out into a meadow and the full moon's light fully illuminated him. His woof became bigger, his senses more focused and his power increased.

He became a blur as he picked up speed and in seconds he was right behind the leech. He snarled and bit down on her ankle and hurled her toward a tree.

CRACK!

Veronica crashed to the moist ground and the tree on her. She screamed in pain as her ribs and spine were crushed. That's gonna take days to heal.

A furry hand gripped Veronica's skull, it's claws digging into her skin. She closed her eyes and struggled to hold back her sobs as she waited for him to do his worst. I'm sorry mom.

The alpha stared down at the girl as he struggled to kill her. Just crush her skull, quick and easy. He ordered his hand to do so but it wouldn't. Hr couldn't kill her. Their was something about her. A reason as to why this young leech had come into his territory. No he wouldn't kill her, but then what will he do. I could use her.

Yes he could break down her will, use her for his needs, have her do whatever he wanted, and show her off like she was a prized pet. She could be his prize. His little pet. The only vampire that had a chance at escaping him.

The tree was lifted off of her and she screamed as she was roughly lifted off the ground by her neck. Pain sliced through her like a knife, making her feel as if she'd been cut straight through her center, from hip to hip.

Veronica's bright blue gaze came in contact with the alpha's red one and she gulped. Was he going to choke her to death? Decapitate her? Send her corspe to her mother in pieces. The possibilities of her fate were endless.

The alpha seemed to smirk, like he had a little secret. Veronica frowned. Why wasn't he killing her?

Why is she not begging for her life? Usually a vampire would be begging for mercy by this time. They'd became a blubbering mess. But not this one. She's special. My little prize.

The other wolves finally found them and Veronica whimpered. Come one girl. Be strong. If this is your time...well...there ain't no fighting it. Veronica knew those words to be true. She needed to accept fate. Like her father had. He always told her "When death comes don't be afraid. Just stare that son of a bitch in the eyes with nothing but bravery in yours. Show him you ain't afraid of him."

Veronica did just that. She wrapped her hands around the alpha's wrist as she stared into the his eyes with nothing but bravery in hers. He seemed surprised by that as well as the other wolves. "Come on buddy. Do your worse. Ain't no fear in my body for you." The other wolves looked at each other, shocked, and them at their alpha, trying to determine his reaction to her bold statement. He just smiled and looked as if he'd one the best prize at the carnival.

"Oh don't worry sweetheart. I will. I promise you that."
