I woke up from the voices around me. I meantally scoffed as I remember my dream, I got abducted? yeah right.

I turned around and hugged the pillow beside me. I frowned at the fluffy-less pillow. This ain't Ana.

"She's awake." a man's voice said.

My eyes immediately fluttered open as my brain sink in the information that I am, not in my house. Two men were staring at me, strangers.

I got up and run the opposite side of them in panic. I was relieved when I noticed that I still got my clothes on. I returned my gaze to the two strangers. "Who are you?" I said as I scroutch down into a fighting stance.

Their hands shot up in surrender.

"We. Mean. No. Harm." The blonde guy said slowly like I was gonna kill them in lesss than a second. Well, I could have if I was Natha-

No, I won't mention it.

After a minute of full of stares and glares, someone barged into the room. 

My veins almost pop up at the sight of him. So he did this!

"You." I said in a threatening voice.

Eric stood there with his hair in it's usually messy way. He was looking at me with terror. "This is not what you think." 

I crossed my arms and tapped my foot impatiently. "I'm all ears."

Let me tell you a fact, if you tell a person not to freak out, that person will definitely freak out. Especially when you're gonna tell a person that they have been kidnapped and you know what's  worse? by werewolves.

Yes, I have been kidnapped by werewolves.. As I've been told.

"Kelly called me, she was asking me about your whereabouts, she told me you were missing." He paused. I raised an eyebrow, "I can handle it, continue." I said and he did. "Before she called me, my patrol officers warned me about rouges."

"So you thought that me, missing and those rouges.. are somewhat connected?" I asked him.

"Thought of and proven." he nodded, proud at himself.

"and now what? don't tell me you found me in a toilet." I scoffed, sarcasm in my tone.

He frowned at me, quite angry at ruining his moment. "You were in a car." he slowly said.

So that wasn't a dream after all.

You might be thinking how the heck did that happen, so I'll fill you in with what happened in that morning. 

10 hours ago..

Do you know the feeling when you walk in the streets and you feel like someone's looking at you? because I freaking do.

For the past 2 weeks I can't shake of this scary feeling that someone's looking at me. Creepy I know.

I thought it was one of Eric's tricks for me to join the pack life again, but when I confronted him, he just raised an eyebrow in boredom and returned to what he was doing. Playing flappybird.

"Hey! Can't you hear me!? SOMEONE IS STALKING ME!" I shouted at his ear to get his attention away from that freaking bird. He fliched at my tone before looking at me with wide eyes. "Seriously? You're not kidding?" I rolled my eyes at him before we continue our same old bickering.

That guy.. seesh, he really thought. I said to myself.

"You thinking something?" Kelly stopped abruptly beside me, before looking into my eyes.

"No." I lied. Then I heard her sigh, "What did I say for the last 20 minutes?" she said, making me rethink but nothing came into my mind. 

We both looked at each other as our favorite store come into focus. The shop's name in a huge banner designed in a very girly way. We didn't waste another minute and went inside the shop. 

We're not looking for a specific item, shopping is only one of our way to enjoy life. Well, she influenced me, since my only way of enjoying my so called life was staying at home and reading fictional books.

We both went through different rackets, and sometimes she'd stop and ask me if what she picked out matched her figure. 

It went like that for nearly 2 and a half hours before we decided to take a break. 

"So, what ya got?" she asked me, peeking in the 3 shopping bags beside me as she took a sip on her milkshake.

I looked at my bags with a slight frown, trying to remember what I bought. "Uh, two shirts, one pants and doll shoes." 

"oh goody." she grinned. I rolled my eyes at her, "Yes it can fit." I smiled, meaning that she can borrow it.

Friends.

I placed my drink down the table before excusing myself. "I need to go to the bathroom." I said standing up. "Okay, I'll just wait for Kently." she gave me a smile before opening her phone.

"I'll be right back okay?" I said before walking away.

And you can think that I didn't come back after that. Even now I still don't know how did that happen, though I do know that this dude in front of me right now has something to do with my disappearance in that time zone. So let's go on to what's happening. 

Present

"Does Kelly know?" I peeked through my fingers since I was covering my face with my hands because of this stress full situation.

"Yeah, just told her that you told me you forgot something and went home." he shrugged like it was no big deal.

"Isn't that a weird and pathetic excuse?"

He glared at me, "Let's switch places shall we?"

Instead of replying with another one of my comebacks I just apologized at him, which earned a shocked look from him.

"You were out for 3 days, just so you know." he said before standing up and heading towards the door.

My eyes widened, thinking of how could I possibly sleep for 3 freakind days without even remembering a single thing of what happened to myself.

When I felt him leave, I lowered my head to the table before banging it slightly.

Is the Moon Goddess punishing me?

Then Eric's voice echoed through my head. 

"You can't hide your true self forever Nathalie."
