Chapter ninety
Chapter Fourteen
Anna’s POV
I heard a beeping sound. It sure does not sound like my alarm. It was a steady beeping like that.
In the hospital reality show, Dad watches sometimes when the patient is hooked up to the heart monitor.
Maybe I'm in the sitting room and Dad's
watching a show. He probably knocked me
out. I don't remember him knocking me out and I don't remember falling asleep.
I opened my eyes and saw a white wall with a
tv on it. Not recognizing my surroundings I sat up with a start looking around the room frantically. The room is painted all white. Even the curtain on the window is white in colour. There are other machines in the room apart from the one attached to me. So I guess I must be in the hospital.
I noticed Asher sitting on the sofa.
Asher stood up straight and rushed to me when he noticed that I was awake.
Why am I here? What happened?
The memory of everything that happened since I came back from school slowly came back. From the pictures of me and Asher hugging, my dad hitting me hard, the man who paid my dad to have his way with me Asher coming to save me and also his eyes turning to the darkest shade of black.
I thank god that nothing terrible happened to me. I don’t even want to imagine what could have possibly happened to me. Thank the heavens Asher came to my rescue.
But why were his eyes black? It just doesn't make any sense. Maybe it was a trick of the light. However, that couldn't be it. I started trying to back away from him but that didn't work because I was in a hospital bed connected to a heart monitor and an IV.
The wires attached to me wouldn't let me move I tried to pull them out but Asher stopped me.
He reached out and put a hand on my shoulder and pulled me in for a hug. I flinched at first but then relaxed into him.
Even though his eyes went black and deadly, he saved me and I trust him. I can't believe I actually trust someone. Well from the moment I met him, I guess I trusted him there's something about him. Besides, why would he take me to the
hospital if he wanted to hurt me? That doesn't make sense. Maybe I imagined the whole eyes
turning black thing.
"I know I have a lot of explaining to do. So I will just start. But please don’t freak out. I'ma werewolf."
I nodded okay, not exactly what I expected.
Werewolves exist. So his eyes did turn black.
That would explain the growling but. Well, I don't know what I expected but it's cool they
exist. Wait, do vampires and witches exist too?
Ok, mind blown. I mean I always wanted to believe in that stuff but it's actually real.
Maybe he's joking. No, he couldn't be.
"Are you ok with that? I mean I know it's a lot to take in and you probably need to rest after
today I mean me well or if you're..." he rambled
I cut him off by putting my hand over his mouth. He looked shocked. He's cute when he's shocked. Well, he's cute all the time.
What's wrong with me? I shouldn't be thinking that and he's a werewolf. There's no way he likes me like that.
"I believe you. I mean it's crazy but I believe you. Since we met I've just always felt like I
can trust you."
"Do you have any questions?" he asked me relieved.
" Can you only change on a full moon? Are there other supernatural creatures? Do you have special powers?" I stopped my question
when he chuckled. I guess I got a little carried away in my questions.
"We can change whenever we want from the age of fourteen. Not that I know of. No, sadly I can only turn into a huge wolf. Well, I suppose my senses are enhanced and super strength and speed. They're sorta special powers just all
werewolves have them but on different levels."
"Cool can I see you in your wolf form sometime," I said grinning. This was amazing
think of the whole world of possibilities out there.
He smiled and replied of course. Then my stomach growled. My cheeks instantly went red.
My stomach never growls this is so embarrassing. I mean I guess I haven't eaten
in a while.
"Let's get you something to eat, we need to put some meat on those bones."
