A LONE WOLF

Chapter 12

"Damian.... they call me Damian"...... Adia didn't say anything. It was the most unusal name she had ever heard. She kept replaying it over and over again in her head. She sat staring into Damian's bright blue eyes. Then she noticed something on the left side of his face. She look closely and noticed that it was a scar. Adia began to wonder how he had a scar on his face. "emm is everything okay?" asked Damian. "I guess so" replied Adia "but how did you get that scar?" Adia looked to the scar on his face. Damian chuckled to himself. Adia was puzzled, why would he laugh about something like that. Damian stood up from sitting down "You really need to mind your own business" said Damian seriously. Adia was taken aback by his comment. His voice seemed so cold and scary. It was like nothing she had ever heard before. Damian noticed that Adia looked slightly frightend so he reached his hand out to help her stand up. Adia looked up at him confused and slightly surprised. She grabbed onto his hand and he helped her up. "but since you seem like a decent person" Damian continued "i got in when i got into a fight a few years ago". Adia was surprised she didn't expect him to answer. "how come your out here?" asked Damian. Adia looked down to the ground trying very hard to hold back her tears. Then she looked up to the sky. "i miss you brother" Said Adia up to the sky. A single tear ran down adias face and fell down and landed on the snow just beside her feet. Damian didn't say anything he just sighed, he was waiting on Adia saying anything else. After a few silent minuets Adia decided to break the silence. "My pack was attacked" said Adia softly. Damian's eyes widened at what Adia said. "i don't know who done it and i don't want to know, my brother was the first to be sot. he was my best friend in the whole world. Andrew and Adam died right away from blood loss and my father passed away the following night in the hospital" Damian didn't know what to say. He could see that Adia was hurting and that she was holding back tears as her eyes began to get watery. "who was your brother?" asked Damian. Adia looked at Damian she could see that he was concerned and he looked intrested. "my brother was the most amazing person on this planet, he was brave, strong, always looked out for his family, we were very alike. lookes wise and personality. his name was Alden"

Damian thought for a few seconds. Alden wasn't a very common name but he recognised the name although he couldn't think from where. "If you don't mind me asking, whats your last name" Damian asked Adia. "mai-coh" replied Adia. Damian recognised the name right away. He knew who Alden was. He had spoken to him a few months ago asking for help. Damian remembered him mentioning a girl. who he cared for deeply and he remembered Alden saying that he would die for her in a heartbeat and have no regret. "I knew your brother" said Damian after a few seconds of silence. Aida's eyes widened and she was shocked. She didn't expect those words to come out of his mouth. He knew who Alden was. "I think we should get you out of this forest" Damian continued. He looked at Adia and she could see a look of concern in his eyes. She could tell that he wanted to help her. Adia began to follow Damian through the forest. To her it seemed as though they were getting deeper and deeper into the forest and not out of it. They walked for hours and talked about random stuff. Eventually Damian stopped walking. Adia could see a large open field and a few miles away was a cottage. "were almost there" said Damian begining to walk again into the direction of the cottage. Adia followed him. Evenually they made it to the front door of the cottage. 

Damian opened the door and walked right in. Adia stood outside just at the door not sure if she should follow him in or not. "Is anyone in!" called Damian. There was a silence and no reply. Damian turned round and saw Adia standing in the entry way, he signald to her that she could come in. "there's a spare room upstairs to the far right, you can sleep there" said Damian. Adia smiled. she was very thankfull that Damian had been so kind to let her stay. she guessed that it was his house but she also wondered who else lived there. It was small so obiously not a tone of people. "who else stays here?" asked Adia. "Just me and my mum" replied Damian "she should be back soon". Adia decided that she had asked enough questions and made her way up to the guest room. it had wood walls and wood floor and wood celing. just like the rest of the house. There was a wooden bed on the left side of the room and a wooden desk with a chair oppisite it. It wasn't what Adia was used to but it was cosy and she liked it. She lay down on the bed and fell asleep because she was so exaused. 

Aida woke up to the sound of talking down the stairs. She could hear Damians voice and another voice she had never heard before. It was a womans voice and it was calm and sweet. Adia guessed that it must be his mum. Adia walked down the stairs and into the kitchen following the voices. The woman had her back facing Adia. She had platmun blonde hair that was up in a messy bun. Damian saw Adia standing. "Adia! come in" said Damian happily. Adia took a few steps and the woman turned round to face her. Adia stopped in shock when she saw the womans face.
