His Silent Mate

    When I woke up, I was cold and alone. Currently sitting in a place that was unfamiliar to me.

    I was in a room that had oak looking walls, and a huge bed, in which I was currently laying in, and a matching set of dresser drawers and a side table with a lamp on it.

    As I was easing out of the bed, a loud rumbling noise sounded throughout the room. It was so loud, it scared me to the point of where I fell unceremoniously off the bed and with a loud thump onto the floor.

    After a quick look around the empty room from my spot on the ground, I realized it was my stomach, voicing its displeasure at being empty.

    So I picked myself from the floor, and cautiously slipped out of the room, going in search for a kitchen.

    As I walked from out of the bedroom, I noticed two things.

    One, there was no one around. Not a sound was made; not a soul in sight.

    Two, in the particular hallway that I was currently standing in, there were at least another fifteen doors that ran down on both sides of the hallway.

    I sighed to myself, realizing that the search for the kitchen in my stranger mate's house was going to be more difficult than i had originally intended.

    It could be worse, my wolf whispered in my head.

    Yeah, there could be even more strange men lounging around, just waiting for the perfect moment to grab me and take me back to my old pack.

    With that thought, tears stung at the corner of my eyes. I would not go back there. No matter the circumstances.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

    After about half an hour of searching for the damn kitchen, I finally found it.

    But I knew I wouldn't be making it back the bedroom on my own any time soon.

    The place was just too big. I had gone through countless doors. Walked down many halls. And finally found a kitchen in what I thought was the second floor.

    Opening the huge refrigerator, I realized that there wasn't much to eat.

    So I grabbed the only thing that looked remotely edible. It looked like some kind of lasagna.
