Petra

  Petra was still fuming about her encounter with Sebastian. The man was a giant dick, he was full of himself, I'm the boss around here, what a cock. And who was he to give her a nickname! She barely knew him, yes she may have shared a bed with him, something which caused her stomach to churn, what was she going to say to Tony?  Hi baby, how was your trip? Oh by the way I asked a random to sleep with me. 

  "P, are you okay?" Damien asked her, his arms wrapped around a red head who looked put out by the fact that Damien was talking to her.

  "I'm fine Damien, go have fun I'm just gonna get another drink." She forced herself to smile brightly at him as she stood and made her way to the drinks table. Grabbing a glass of wine, she made her way back to the bench that she had been sitting on all night and continued to watch the festivities around her. She had spoken to a couple of people all of which had been pleasant but her anxieties stopped her from pursuing further conversations with others. That was what the alcohol was for, it would help her relax and then she could try and mingle, the problem was the giant named Sebastian who was situated in the opposite side of the large bonfire that had been set up.

  She couldn't really see him but knowing he was there had her body on full alert, why she didn't know he was after all a cock, but her body had different ideas. It was still thrumming from their close contact earlier. She took a large mouthful of her wine in an attempt to push away the strange sensations she felt just at the thought of his handsome face so close to her own, or the way his voice had caused her panties to dampen when he had whispered against her ear. 

  "Looking lonely Petra." Nico smiled at her and sat down. 

  "Just observing." She smiled back.

  "So what happened with you and Seb? He looks as pissed and conflicted as you." He laughed taking a mouthful of his beer. 

  "I think it's his inflated ego that has him pissed." She shrugged which had Nico laughing again. 

  "He's a good guy, a little rough round the edges but good." Petra snorted at Nico's comment.

  "I don't wanna talk about him Nico, he makes me....he just....." she growled in frustration she had no idea what she was trying to say and hoped the growl said it all.

  Nico looked like he was going to say something before a piercing scream cut through the air. Everyone including Petra remained silent but turned their heads trying to glean where the scream had come from. Then there was the growl, it was deep and loud and Petra found her eyes taking in the scene as a large pack of huge and scary looking wolves appeared from the surrounding woodland. "Holy shit." She breathed.

  "Run!" Nico yelled at her, "Get back to the house!" Then he was gone running toward Sebastian along with several others. She couldn't move just stared as the wolves suddenly picked up pace and ran toward the people who had been partying and then she watched in horror as the people they were running toward began to change, shift somehow and where the people once stood wolves appeared. 

  "Petra, get to the fucking house!" Damien hollered at her before changing right there in front of her to a dark chocolate coloured wolf and joined the fight. She couldn't help but compare the wolves from the wood to those who had been the party goers. The wood wolves seemed slimmer, their fur more rough than the party goers whose wolves looked almost majestic, their fur silken, what was wrong with her! She managed to shake herself awake and began to make her way to the house when she heard a whimper and then full blown cry. 

  Petra turned to see a toddler crying amongst the fighting wolves calling out for its mother, then she noticed a dull grey wolf turn toward the toddler and stalk toward him. Without thought Petra rushed toward the child, she saw a baseball bat under the drinks table and dive to get it before running as fast as her body would allow toward the screaming child.

  Just as the mangy wolf went to lunge at the child Petra swung the bat as hard as she could across the animals head and stood in front of the child, what she was doing she had no idea but she raised the bat again her adrenaline pumping through her veins, she swung at the wolf again whilst it was still somewhat dazed and heard a crack before the bat split in two. She could have sworn the wolf smirked at her before crouching down reacting itself to pounce.

  She looked down at the child there was no way she could outrun the wolf, she definitely couldn't fight it, the wolf pulled back its lips baring it's large and sharp teeth. With a scream Petra bent down and covered the small child with her body, maybe she might die but the child would be okay. But instead of feeling the beasts teeth sinking into her skin an inhuman shriek sliced through the air causing Petra to look up from her curled position. A large white wolf had attacked the grey one, which was now lifeless on the floor. 

  The large white wolf walked toward them and stood over Petra and the toddler who she had cradled baring it's teeth and growling menacingly at any wolf that looked their way. The fight seemed to be subsiding with the healthier looking wolves winning. The white wolf did not move from its protective stance over Petra and the still crying toddler until the remainder of intruding wolves were gone.

  The wolf moved from its position and turned to face Petra, she gathered the small child in her arms and stared into the wolf's emerald eyes, that seemed almost familiar. "Just let the child go." She whispered hoping the animal understood her. "Please." The wolf began to change, as too did the other animals around her and for a moment she forgot to breathe as the once white wolf turned into Sebastian. 

  A woman was suddenly by her side removing the child from her grasp, she relax when she heard the child murmur 'mummy' to the female. "Thank you." The woman looked at her with glassy eyes as the child cling to her neck. 

  "Petra..." Sebastian almost whispered, suddenly she seemed to wake up for whatever trance had held her. She scrambled to her feet taking a step further away from Sebastian, she noticed movement in the corner of her and swung round to see a naked Damien looking almost as uncomfortable as she felt. 

  "Petra, I-" Damien began but Petra was shaking her head.

  "No!" She almost shrieked as Damien took a step toward her. "Stay the fuck away from me." She yelled at him moving backward, she saw Sebastian move toward her in her peripheral, "All of you, stay back!" Her voice was becoming higher pitches as she felt her anxieties pushing to the forefront. She could barely breathe, her head was becoming light as her panic attack began to take over her body.

 "Petra, baby girl just breathe." She heard Damien trying to soothe her, but she was beyond soothing, instead she ran.
