"That won't get you anywhere."

Alison instantly turned around facing the shadows from where the voice came from. A woman stalked out from the darkness with a evil grin on her face which had a burn on her jaw. She had dark silky hair that reached her shoulders and her clothing looked a bit dirty and broken. The woman was probably a few years older than Alison.

She stopped walking and tilted her head to the side.

"Such a pretty girl...... It's a shame they put you down here" She laughed evilly and grabbed Alison's wrist yanking her to the ground. 

"Ha! you're weak too." The woman laughed

" What's your name? you must've done something terrible for them to even consider putting you in here with me." She spat

Alison was angry, she had enough of being pushed around for one day and it was getting on her nerves.

"I'm not weak and my name is Alison." She said getting up onto her feet then scowling in the woman's direction.

The woman despised the fact that Alison stood up for herself. She pulled a switchblade from her side and walked over to Alison. 

Alerted by this Alison backed away from her slowly. The cell was cold, dark and with every step she took, it echoed through it. She wondered why they would let her keep a weapon.

The woman had Alison backed up against the wall. she took the switchblade, trailed it along Alison's jaw, running it up the side of her left cheek and applying enough pressure actually cutting her.

A scream emitted from her while blood dripped from her face onto the floor. The cut was deep.

Without even thinking Alison flicked her wrist sending the woman crashing against the opposite wall. She had no idea why the woman started attacking her for she had done absolutely nothing to offend or hurt her. 

The woman rose up from the ground and gave Alison a glare that sent her into a coughing fit. Her insides burned, she couldn't breathe and it was like she was suffocating from trying to breathe.

The girl tried to use her abilities but she was already weak. Just as she was about to give in, the cell unlocked and Lewis burst in. 

"Clarissa! Let go of the girl."

Alison used the distraction, raised her fist and brought it down in one quick motion making both Lewis and the woman crash to the floor.

She gasped for breath while the blood kept dripping from the wound on her cheek.

Lewis recovered from the attack instantly grabbed Alison forced her on her knees.

"Aye I see we have another one hey." He said in disgust before dragging her by her hair to the council.

Meanwhile after the meeting was over Luca went back to go look for Alison only to find the room empty. He caught her scent as well as another's which he quickly recognised as Lewis's. 

Luca ran full speed following the scent but sensing a new way it went and following it to the council's hall.

"Shit"

He entered the hall quietly and stood amongst the Protectors who were most likely called in case Alison was a great danger. Which he somehow knew she was.

The Council were really intimidating. To Alison all this things were strange. She did not know they were werewolves or that this was the most respected ones amongst all of them.

" I didn't do anything! Let me g-go!" She cried, shouting, kicking and pulling to break free from Lewis and three other guys that were keeping her in place on her knees in front of the Council.

The others in the room gasped at her disrespect while the Four members which consisted of quadruplets, James, Kindra, Derwaro and Nova, just glared at her not saying a word.

Luca felt bad for her. He wanted to help her but he knew he would just make it worse.

Everything was silent except for Alison's soft sobs.

" Sister and brothers, What do you think we should do with her?" The one that was called Kindra said with a sly smirk.

"Oh I do not know, Maybe we could remove her limbs one by one?"  Derwaro suggested letting out a laugh at Alison's frightened face.

They all burst out laughing making all the other people laugh too.

" I could take her." Luca suggested stepping forward. The Council gave him a peculiar look.

"And why would you do that?" James inquired sitting up straighter.

" She could be useful like maybe she could be a maid or something Sir. James." He answered confidently.

The council looked at one another before giving him a curt nod.

" Very well Alpha Davids you may take her but if she tries anything like this again or disrespect our laws she'll be coming back-" Sir. James was cut off by the Hall's door being swung open and one of the Protectors ran in frantically.

He was out of breath and almost collapsed but still kept his posture.

"Sir. James! Clarissa!" He shouted taking another breath. Luca stiffened. Clarissa was the worst woman in everyone's eyes. She slaughtered many innocent people and children in one go without showing emotion. She was the one who killed Luca's sister, Evangeline.

"What About Clarissa?" Luca bellowed out in anger.

"Clarissa...She escaped!" And with that everything was in complete chaos.
