Serenity

Three days have gone by and our new summer wear was finally introduced. Let me tell you that I had to be the model for the clothes since my original model had a family emergency and there was no one to take her place, so I had to do it myself.

I'm not a big fan of having my photo in ads for the whole world to see, but it had to be done.

I was currently home finishing some phone calls that need to be addressed. Once I finished I felt like going for a run. It has been weeks since I have gone out for a run since I have been so busy with work.

I make my way to the entrance of the woods. I take in a deep breath, enjoying the fresh smell of the forest. I shift in to my beautiful dark brown wolf. She had white paws and black ears as well as her tail. A weird combination of fur but I had to admit she was still beautiful.

I ran through the woods enjoying the Breeze through my fur as I ran. I playfully ran side to side, dodging each and every tree. I ran to my favorite spot which was about 20 miles away from my house.

It was a open space in the forest, the space was full of green grass and with many types of flowers. I just couldn't help my self but roll around on the ground. Sure I might be acting childish but can you really blame me. This is the only time I feel free from stress.

I shift back to human form. My clothes still on me as I do. I put my arms under my head as I close my eyes and take a deep breath. It's so peaceful sometime I wish I could just pause time so I can enjoy this to the fullest. Feeling a bit to comfortable I slowly start to fall asleep.

'Snap'

I open my eyes as I heard a branch snap. I sat up scanning the area but I don't see anyone. I notice that it has gotten dark. I should be getting home. I stood up and made my way to the forest that leads to my home. I couldn't help but feel that someone was watching me.

I decided not to shift just in case it was a person. I jogged and walked all the way home. It took me at least 20minutes to get back home. Just to put it out there I am a very fast walker and runner, even faster when I feel someone following me.

Once I was out of the wood I quickly made my way back to my house. I ran up the stairs to my room. I carefully look out my window but see nothing at all. I shrug it off and head to the bathroom for a quick shower.

Once done I change into my mid-thigh night gown. I laid down on the bed hoping that sleep would come to me, but it didn't so I got up and made my way to my balcony. Opening the doors I walked out feeling the cool breeze caress my skin. I lean on the railing and look up at the moon.

The moon was bright as always. I smile and sigh in content.

I was brought out of my happy place when I heard a growl coming from the forest. I look down but see nothing. That is until I saw something dark slowly move between the tress. I have no idea what it is but what I do know is that it was staring are me almost as if it could see right through me.

I back up and make my way back into my room locking the balcony doors. I sat on the bed thinking of those eyes staring at me. I shivered at the thought of it. I lay back down slowing allowing sleep to take over.

************

I woke up and got dressed for work. I didn't have time to eat breakfast so I hurried in to my car and drove off to work. As I entered the building my secretary handed me my schedule for today. Let me tell you I'm not leaving this building any time soon.

I had at least three meetings, this morning. I was getting everything ready for our winter close line, although we are in the beginning of summer. I wanted to have things ready ahead of time, I also wanted to give my hard working employees some time off.

I decided to call my secretary Jessica so that she could make the announcement "Jess, come to my office please" I called for her. Jessica was a middle aged woman, she is very kind and a very hard worker. She has told me so many stories of my parents, since she first was my parents PA.

I heard a soft knock "enter". She opens the door and walks in standing right in front of my desk. "How may I help you Ms.Night?" She asked with a smile.

"I want you to email all the employees that I will be giving them two weeks off starting next week, but only if they finish their work" I tell while looking over some documents. I look up when I hear her respond "Jess?" I call her snapping her out of who knows what.

"Sorry Miss. It's just that's been a while since any of us have had a vacation" she said still in shock. I smile "yes I know, but since everyone has been working hard and the winter preps are almost done. Why not have a little break?" I tell her.

She smiles and nods. "I will send the message out right now Miss." I nod and go back to my papers as she takes her leave.

I put down my documents and stood up to stretch. I walk to my all glass wall. The scenery was breath taking. I could see the forest from here as well as the city.

From the corner of my eye I saw a flash and heard a click sound, due to my super hearing as I like to call it. I look down to find a black car with dark Windows. There was a man pointing a camera my way. I take a step back not wanting him to keep taking any pictures of me.

I hate when the media tries to get into people's business making up scandals. There is no way that I am getting into one.
