The Beast Within

Chapter 51

NINA

"Are you ready?" Bryan asked Nina as she zips her bag pack's zipper, she turned around and faced him smilling.

"I'am" She said. For a while Bryan just stared at her, he seems to study her face.

"Is something wrong?" She asked him with a worried expression, Bryan just shook his head and smiled. He then leaned down and kissed her.

"Nothing, it's just...you're so beautiful today." He said after he kissed her. Nina smiled and nods her head.

"so where are we heading?" She asked him. Bryan sighed and walk closer to the small table that is in the room. On top of it a map lay where a few mark are drawn.

"He is in a constant move, he is last seen in RiverMaya pack. And they said they see him heading to west side of the territory. If he is going to target the Cresent pack... We will have to intercept him at the border of your old pack land." Bryan explained, he notice how Nina's back tensed, he then place his hand on her back.

"You okay?" He asked her. Nina smiled at him and shakes her head.

"No...to be honest i'am afraid. Afraid that you two might get hurt. I don't wanna lose either of you. So i'm afraid because i don't what will happen next." Nina bit her lip and then she wipes the tears that had fallen from her eyes.

"I'm sorry, i know i shouldn't be crying...it's just i've been so emotional this past few days because... Of what is happening, and...and i just...i don't know what to feel anymore." Nina sniffs, Bryan hugged her tightly and kissed her on her temple, forehead, cheeks and down to her lips.

"It's alright, i know how hard it is and i know how stressed you are, so it's alright to feel emotional.." He said caressing her back.

"Yeah...So that's why you have to promise me....that we're going to have a lot of sex once we get him back." Nina joked trying to lighten up the mood, Bryan couldn't help but chuckle, he kissed her lips again.

"Oh yes, definitely. We are going to have a lot of sex and break the whole room down." He joked too, Nina snorted and playfully slapped in his chest.

"No, i must disagree with the breaking the whole room down. It's very hard and expensive replacing the things in our bedroom." She said before hugging him, the two of them stayed like that for a minute, before they were interupted by a knock on the door, and Nix opened it.

"We're ready to leave." She said with a serious look on her face, Bryan and Nina let go before walking out of the room.

"I'm so sorry i couldn't accompany you. But you Mason's help, together with his pack member." Author said, Nina looks behind her and smiled on her brothers who were already on their wolf forms.

"I believe that the Goddess will guide you." Author added before stepping back. Selena then came forward and held Nina's hand.

"Stay safe, may the good Goddess bless you on your journey and guide you." After that she let go of Nina's hand and gave her an encouraging smile. After there good byes Nina and Adonis shifted and run together with their pack members.

They decided to travel on form, it would be much more faster and safer than riding a car. They just hope that this will be easy.

BRYAN

He growled when he felt his beast try to claw it's ways to his mind. Bryan can already feel it, the weakening of his barier as the big full moon came in closer. He had only three days before he loose his control. But he wished that before that time come, they have already captured him, or it would be much more worst. He just wished that he could get rid of this curse.

He looked at Nina who is running beside him.
If he lose his control, he might end up hurting her, and he don't wanna do that. So for the first time in a long time, he asked for help, he prayed. He prayed that for Goddess to give him control and power, if the full moon comes.

ADONIS

He heard as the bone crack when he bite down on it. He could smell the blood that coated his fur and the taste of it in his mouth.

Adonis could see his beast as it ate the flesh of their victim. A young man, about the age of 17 is their latest victim, or should he say the victim of the beast that controls him. He clenched his fist and shouted, he hated this feeling, he hated to see this. Yet why can't he do anything? Why is he so weak? He tried to move his hand but he still couldn't move it, the chain of control dangled infront of him taunting him, if he could just move his hand and reach it, then control would be his. But the more he tried, the rope that tied him to the wall kept on tightening, and now the wall is starting to swallow him, rapidly.

"Nina." He said, it breaks his heart the he couldn't see her, that he couldn't touch her. He just wish to feel her warmth, to embrace her, to kiss her. He wanted to see her.

Adonis head hung low, as tears started to pour from his eyes. Even a man can cry when he felt this kind of despair, of loneliness. He felt so powerless and useless. He just wished to end this, to end it, so he could have Nina back. His sweet sweet Nina
