My mate

Chapter 27

Harper's POV (Flashback)

I open my eyes as I hear someone scream. It was horrible, more like a long and pained screech.

With my heart pounding harder into my chest, I gathered the courage to get out of bed and make my way to my bedroom door.

"M-mummy?" I peak round the slightly opened door at the stairs, but I can't see anything.

I see a few shadows dart across the wall into what I guess was the living room. I heard whispering but I couldn't quite make out what was being said.

I started to relax and was about to make my way back into bed when I heard yet another scream, but louder from a male that I couldn't recognise.

Panic started to rise inside of me, do I go down? Or stay here, and wait for someone? I thought
I was too panicked to make a decision quickly, God why am I so indecisive?

"QUICK YOU TWO GO GET HER AND LEAVE HERE WITHOUT LOOKING BACK!! I KNEW IT WAS A BAD IDEA TO COME AND VISIT HER" I man shouts demandingly.

I heard a loud thud next, followed by a few glasses and vases breaking. Next, there was a pair of shadows growing as they came closer. I didn't know who it was, so I ran to my bed and hid under it, covering my mouth with my hands as I held my breath and chocked on my tears.

The door to my room swung open and two people ran in,

"Harper? Baby where are you?" I heard my mum cry out for me

I instantly climbed out from under my bed and ran to my mothers open arms.

She hugged me tightly and said,

"Perrie, we need to go. I need you to be as quiet as you can okay? Can you do that for me?" She smiled at me through tears as she cupped my face.

I nodded my head, and in the split second before she picked me up I saw that the left side of her forehead was bleeding, along with a cut lip.

"Good girl, but I think its quicker if you walk. You've grown a lot since the last time I picked you up" She said before placing me back down on the ground

My dad kissed me on my forehead and slightly whispered,

"Avoid looking at anything okay honey? I need you to just focus on us and stay with us" My dad said seriously as he moved my hair out of my face with his bloody hands.

I nodded my head and grabbed my mums hand tightly. Soon after, we started moving.

Dad went first, and we followed behind him, I could hear dads voice whispering as quietly as he could to mum. I saw him grab some sort of tracker from the ground before we went down the stairs as quietly and as quickly as we could. As we got to the bottom of the stairs I heard something smash into the wall, very close to us.

Out of reflex, my head shot up and saw the scene my dad warned me about.

There were these people with armour and swords fighting, these wolves?
Our once small and cozy house was now ruined, glass broken everywhere. Curtains ripped, tables flipped, furniture cut in half or clawed out.

"DON'T CHANGE SIR! YOU KNOW WE CAN'T IN THE CITY!!" One of them shouted to another.

"GODDAMMIT THEY PLANNED THIS" He roared as he slashed his sword against the wolves dark brown fur.

The howl that escaped the wolf made my hair stand. I was about to cry from sheer panic and horror. But then my dad grabbed my mum and I, we left. We ran as fast as we humanly could.

"D.. don't stop!" My dad panted as he gave me a glimpse to make sure I was still there. I didn't seem to be as tired as they were for some reason.

We ran for a while, into the streets. No one seemed to be awake.

"Where a-are we going?" I panted

"Nearly there Perrie, keep running!" My dad whisper-shouted as he checked the tracker.

About a minute or two later, my dad halted to a stop and stared into an alleyway.

"Are you sure this is it?" My mum said uneasily as she tried to steady her breathing.

"Positive, lets go" dad said jogging into the alleyway. We hid behind a dumpster, which wasn't really the best plan but there really wasn't much there.

We all hugged each other as we sat there. We waited and waited when finally something happened. The tracker started buzzing rapidly. We panicked as we didn't know what was happening, but soon after someone came out of the shadows making us jump.

"Sorry to scare you, are you Mr. Silvius?" The man said calmly

"Y-Yes I am" My dad replied

Everything around me started to fade after every blink.

"Don't worry, you're now safe" The man said reassuringly, before I completely gave in and closed my eyes.

                                            * * *
I opened my eyes, what was that about?
I had the weirdest dream..

I tried moving, but the dampness of the bed sheets made me stop. I slowly got up to see what happened. I saw Jungkook knocked out next to me. He had messy hair and his mouth was slightly open, he really must be tired.
Then I looked where I was sleeping, everywhere was wet. Soon the memories of yesterday flood back, and I realise that it was all sweat; gross.

I tried to get out of bed smoothly but got pulled back in.

"Where do you think you're going?" Jungkook said groggily as he tried to keep his eyes open.

"I'm just gonna change my clothes and the bedsheets.. so you might have to get up" I whispered, I cringed as I felt the wet bedsheets touch me again.

"But I'm tired.. you're such a handful when you're on your heat, you woke up so many times and lashed out" He gave a tired laugh as he rubbed his eyes.

"Oh I'm sorry I don't even remember half of what happened" I gave an apologetic look.

"No it's fine!! It's not your fault, plus it wasn't anything I couldn't handle" He gave a triumphant look.

"Oh god" I roll my eyes.
