"Cierra watch out!!!!"

I screamed in hope my sister would hit the breaks soon enough to avoid the white mass that had jumped out from the woods.

She took a sharp turn causing the car to skid into the guard rail and descend down a steep hill.

I heard the constant THWAP THWAP of nearby branches.

We started to pick up speed and head right for a massive tree.
I braced myself for the impact that would end my life, but it never came.

I jolted awake just as the hood of the car struck the thick base of the tree.

"AHHHHHHOOOWOOOOOO!!!!," I howled out.

I woke up in a sweat.
My whole body radiated heat.
And there was this god awful taste in my mouth.
It tasted like....metal.
Like blood.

I felt a familiar sense of power coursing through my body.
Not a surge, but rather a constant flow that I could control.

I rubbed my tongue along my top front teeth.

"Ah!," I whimpered.

I cut my tongue on my canines, which were now three times larger and sharper than normal.

"Shit," I muttered under my breath.

I looked at my hands.
Claws.

"What the hell!"

I had to do a double take.
There were shackles on my wrists?!
I threw my arm forward, which was quickly thrusted backward from the restraint of the shackles.
I followed the chain to see that it ended at a large rock wall.
It was the same on the other wrist.

"What.....?"

I couldn't remember anything.
How did I get here?

"Ahhmm!," I screamed in pain.

A massive headache radiated out from behind my eyes.
Images flashed through my mind.

Paris.
Holding a needle.
Injecting me with it.
Then there was a figure.

The pain subsided and all I could see were sun spots.
I blinked my eyes furiously until my vision cleared.
Everything came back.
The fight with Paris.
Her injecting me.
The figure.

All of it.

Okay so I know how I got here.
But where is here?

I scanned the room.
It looked like I was in a cave sorts.
I couldn't make out much.
The entire cave was pitch black.

I heard the shuffling of feet then I heard a loud thud.
Like someone bumped into something.

"Owwww," a deep male voice whimpered.

"Niiiiice," I chuckled.

I heard more shuffling.
Then I saw them.
These big beautiful orbs of orange, yellow, and blue swirled together.
It was like there was a literal fire in his eyes.

"Shit"

"Huh," I heard him chuckle.

He had a REALLY sexy laugh.
Deep but not too deep.

My mind started to wander.
I started to wonder if the rest of him was just as sexy as his laugh and eyes.

I felt this irresistible attraction to him.
Like I'd known him for years.
Like I'd do anything for him.
NO! Get out of la la land Cira!
You can't like him.
He's probably the one who took you.
