The real question is what did she do? ---------------------------- I turn around to close the door but something or more like someone is blocking me with their foot. "Hey, can you move your foot?" I ask but the person doesn't make a move to open or close the door. Suddenly I am pressed up against a wall near the door. I hate being manhandled. "Let me go! I will hurt you if you don't." I say with as much courage as I have. "Oh, Alexandra. You don't scare me one bit." A guy says in a deep voice. "Who are you? Why are you here?" I ask the two questions in my head. I then take a whiff of the air and know that this is a high ranking werewolf. Probably a Beta or Delta. "I am the one to bring the alpha what he wants. And if it wasn't obvious I am here to take you to the alpha. You are a rogue after all." The guy says behind me in a tone that makes me want to run from him but punch him at the same time. "But anyway before you get any ideas...This is going to make it easier to carry you without you struggling." He says then injects me with something that burns in my blood stream.
