Chapter Four Getting To Know

           

               "It's good are wake dear." The mother says her voice sincere. "And keep drinking the tea, it will you." She says and walks away. I do as she says and takes more sips of the tea. I start to relax.

             "What is your name?" I ask moving over slightly on the bed letting her to have more room sitting.

             "Leah. Yours?" She asks settling down.

            "Leah, that's beautiful. Mine's Clara." I say taking in my surroundings. Its like an old house not lived in for a while. But there's a small fire going on and an old tea pot by it.

           "We had to find a place to lay you without other people seeing. And we came across this place. Sorry it's been abandon and we knew people would not come in here. If they did and they saw you we all would be in trouble." Leah says looking around as well. There are holes in the wall and a little mouldy form the rain.

             "Thank you though for being so nice and helping me." I say taking her hand.

            "And not for eating you." Leah says with a playful smirk.

           "Ah yes indeed thank you for sparing me." I laugh and Leah joined. "So werewolf? Right?" I ask and she just nods. "That's pretty amazing you got to admit." I say and she just looks at me funny. "Well besides getting your leg in a trapped and other people in the village sometimes out for you. Oh and the fear of getting caught." I list off.

           "Yes not as glamorous as ones thought." Leah chuckles.

          "But it's got to be fun right?" I ask hoping it's not all bad for them.

         "Oh yes." Leah smiles taking my hand.

         "That's good." I said smiling, Leah smiles back happily but then the smile fades.

         "I am glad you think that way." Leah moods change and acts like she is walking on egg shells.      

          "Why you say that?" I ask with a confused chuckle. My heart starts pounding.
