Moonlit Forever

Maddie POV

Sitting up gingerly so as not to move my hand I looked down and saw the rough, ragged edge of the cut and the dried up blood, both on my hand and the knife still sticking out of it. Wincing, I took in several gulping breaths before leaning down and pulling the knife out. Rolling back I bit my lip to hold in my cries; holding my hand to my chest as I passed out again. What felt like hours later I opened my eyes to a pulsing throb in my hand. Looking at it, I tried to flex my fingers slightly which set off tremors going down my arm. Gulping I focused on finding the knife that had held me to the floor. Looking around I saw it laying on the floor close to the congealed puddle of blood. Wincing I scooted over to it and reached out to take it. The boot came out of nowhere to slam onto my wrist and pin my hand in place. Gasping I looked up at the stern face of my capture. Tugging on my wrist, I let out a slight growl when I felt it wasn't moving. Glaring up at him I saw him smirking down at me. Feeling a rage building up I could feel my mouth thinning out into a thin line. Turning my head so I was staring at the wall I took in several ragged breaths. Hearing his high pitched laugh made me grind my teeth together. Seeing him crouch down, still with his boot on my wrist I gazed at him coolly from a side glance. Hearing his laughter again, I clenched my jaw. Tugging my wrist again, I watched in slow motion as he lifted his foot up. Pulling it to me, I set it in my lap started to rub my wrist lightly. Turning to look at his smiling face I just scowled at him.

"I think your wolf might be coming back. You haven't been this angry since we brought you here." He observed. Trailing a finger down my arm, I could feel the low growls building up in my chest. Seeing his smile widen, I could feel them growing louder and a few escaped my lips. Standing once he heard those, he walked over to the door.

"Ready to see you your mate today?" Giving a gesture towards the door I forced myself to not respond. Sitting still I just watched him through the slits my eyes had formed. Seeing him gesture again, I slowly got to my feet and stood in place. Hearing his exasperated sigh had me smirking lightly. "Do you want to see your mate or not?" Weighing my options I watched as he stalked closer to me before grabbing my arm and dragging me out of the cell. We went up a flight of crumbling stairs before a bright light hit my eyes, making me hiss out. Bringing up one hand to shield my eyes I felt the burn of silver before the cuff clinked into place. Lunging at the person, I grabbed their shirt before I felt another cuff on my other wrist. Momentarily surprised, I let go of the shirt as I looked at the cuffs on my wrist. Slowly raising my head, I glared at my captor. Watching him tug the chains, I fell forward in front of him. Resting on my knees I glared at him defiantly, watching as he smirked.

"Behave runt. We want you to make it to see your mate alive." Heard the low rumble of the other wolves with him, I scanned the crowd quickly to see many rogues who looked rough and ragged. Surprised I glanced up back at my capture to see that however had cut his hair into a buzz cut, showcasing the scars marring his face. Studying him for another minute I scowled and stood with a lifted chin. Waiting until the rumble died down, He quickly told the group to follow the first car since they knew where we were going. Pulling on the chains, we started off towards a row of run down vehicles. Getting to a red one with severe body damage and rust, I watched as he opened the door. Gesturing for me to get in, I slid in awkwardly as he still held the chains. Grimacing, as they rubbed uncomfortably I put on straight face as he slid in next to me. Watching him smirk at me from the corner of eye, I stared forward with a blank expression. Feeling him jostle next to me I turned to look at him as he pulled a black bag out from his pocket. Scowling I just held my hands out and put it on. Smelling of soured milk, I grimaced inside the bag. Hearing the two other wolves get into the car and the three of them starting to talk, I let out a small sigh and leaned my head back. Worrying about my pack, I started to chew my bottom lip as the car started to move forward.

"It's not like you won't know where we are going. After all we are meeting on your parent's territory. The sack is to make sure you can't tell anybody where we are located." Gasping at the first part of his statement I flung my head up violently. Feeling his shaking laughter followed by the high pitched chortling, I felt my stomach turn and go sick. Breathing a little heavier, I tried to calm my breathing to no avail. Worrying even more so, I sat in silence as the chatter continued around me. Several hours later, the chatter died down and I could feel the tension rising in the car. Sitting up straighter I strained to see anything through the grainy sack material. Feeling the car slow down I waited with baited breath for what was going to happen next.
