The Forgotten Shifter

Chapter 4: The Alpha

"Come with me." Jaxson said. I hadn't seen him come up behind me so I jumped when I heard his voice.
"Why?" I questioned.
"Because I said to, now don't fight, follow me."
"Fine." I grumbled and slowly followed him.
"Good."Jaxson led me back to my cell, gave me some food, locked the cell door and left the building
*******

I ate the food the Jaxson gave me even though I wasn't hungry. I sat in the cell for hours. No one came down to check on me or keep me company.

I decided to take a nap so I lay down close my eyes. I'm just about to fall asleep when I hear the basement door open and close with a slam.

I opened my eyes to see a tall man with brown hair and blue eyes. He looked tough, but he was cute. He came to my cell and looked at me. I went to the back wall of my cell and lay down not looking at him. I didn't know what it was but it felt like I was being pulled to him.

"I know who you are. I knew your family when I was young, you probably don't remember me but I used to see you all the time. We played in the field behind your house. Until my family grew apart from yours. Our fathers and mothers were great friends." I kept looking at the ground.

"Ok. Have you heard what happened to ShadowMoon?" I said with tears in my eyes.

"No, but will you please look at me when you're speaking I can barely hear you." He said roughly.

"No I don't want to. " I said on the verge of a break down.

"And why not."

"Because I don't want to."

"Please Amelia look at me."

"But I don't even know you, why should I trust you."

"Please just look at me Amelia."

"I'm tired, go away I'll talk more tomorrow."

"Ok whatever see you tomorrow."

He left the building. I started to cry, I was happy he left. I hated crying in front of people. I got up and looked out the window, I tried to call for my pack once more, but of course nothing. That made me cry harder. I sat down in the corner of the cell and looked at the wall for what felt like years. Luckily I fell asleep.

When I woke up there was a new pair of clothes laying on the chair in the corner of my cell and some food. I ate the food and waited for the alpha to come back. I had some questions for him. I heard the basement door open so I sat in the corner of my cell waiting.

"I see you're up. Now, will you look at me and answer my questions?"

"I will not look at you but, I will answer questions as long as I get to ask some too."

"Ok that's fair. I'll ask a question then you can ask one. First, what happened with ShadowMoon? You never answered that question yesterday."

"I don't know what happened." I said looking at the floor.

"And why can't you tell me? I would like to know Amelia. Please, tell me." He pleaded.

"I told you, I don't know what happened, that's why I asked you to see if you knew. All I know is that when I woke up all I saw was the pack house in ashes and no one was around. That's when I noticed that I was in wolf form and that I couldn't shift back into human form. I don't know who you are but I'm telling you all of this. Why?"
