Katerina's (P.O.V)
In 4 day's time, I heard the first crack of a twig that wasn't done by me. I was far, far away from Ever Falls. I had shifted three times, back and fourth to human and wolf as I travelled in and out of towns. I was now in wolf form again, walking through the woods looking for something, anything to drink. I was dying from dehydration and I swear my tongue hung out of my mouth like a sloppy dog. Pun intended.
The crack had me whipping my head around, a growl erupting from deep inside my throat. I barked, as if to ask who's there. I wish I hadn't, because no sooner than I did, I was faced with three wolves. All in the formation of a triangle, coming at me. A black one, large than the other two, at the front of the triangle, a grey one, at the right of the triangle, and a white one, to the left of the triangle. I watched there lips pull back from there teeth in a snarl as the patted over to me. I cowered away in fear, my nose touching my front paw's, my butt and hind leg's still in the air to show I surrender. I cast my wolfy eye's down at the muddy grounds of the woods, and waited to be killed.
Bone popping. No, bone cracking. They were shifting. I still kept my eye's down. There was a zipper and some rustling. "Shift." A voice of authority rang and I felt my body quiver in fear. Insinctively I shifted, curling into a ball on my knee's to hide my body. "Our eye's are closed, you may get dressed." He told me, the same voice who told me to shift.
Quickly, I slipped on some random clothes from the bag and got back down on my knees. "I'm done." I said slowly. "You can stand up you know. We won't bite." Another voice had said. I got up, finally meeting there eye's. They gasped. "Who are you, rogue?" The Authority was ringing in my ears again, I figured he would be the Alpha of the pack. "I'm Katerina." I muttered to them. They were all very good looking. Tight shirts and shorts. A duffel bag on the ground to their left.
I cocked my head to the side. "Katerina what?" The one who told me to stand up asked. "Bathas. Katerina Bathas." I said quickly. They looked at eachother, sharing looks I didn't know how to identify before looking back at me.
Why?" Cliff asked me. "I didn't realize there was another pack close by here. I ran from home, I'm only on the run. I swear." I defended myself. "Were not going to hurt you, stop cowering away from us. And there is another pack close by here, The Untamed pack. My pack." Elijah said and I gasped before I knew it happened. "I didn't.. I didn't know. I'm sorry." I told him,
us no harm if you're just about ready to run and hide. I was just wondering why you had crossed us, and now that I know, I'd like to ask you what's up with your bruises." He said clearly, his eye's traveling over me. I cleared my throat. "Fell." I said flatly. Once again, they all looked at eachother with a look I
suggest you re-think that answer of yours." Elijah told me smoothly. My eye's grew wide. "Me? And inviation to your pack? The strongest pack
of your minds or extremely desperate. I can't fight, I'm meant to be faught, and I'm always meant to loose. Oh my this is crazy talk. Holy crap." I rambled on and on, pacing back on forth. When
were getting ourselves into. You can be trained. Someone as slim as you can build muscle easily and can be taught to fight and defend like a wolf should." Cliff said smirking at me. I let out a snort.
"And to answer your question, I was abused." I told them. I watching their facial expressions shift into one's of rage. "Your pack did
again, they were calming themselves down. I cleared my throat. "We'll address this again later." Elijah states. "Will you be accepting our invitation little wolf?" Joel asks me. I met eyes
grass. "C'mon. Take a break for the day, you've been working non-stop for the past 6 weeks Kat." He told me enveloping me in a hug. "Yes, but that's what training is. Non-stop working out and training. " I told him pushing at his shoulder. Suddenly I was flat on my arse on the grass again. I groaned. "I wasn't ready." I told him. "Werewolve's are meant to be ready. At any given time. Learn to use all your senses,
push my red, fiery hair out of my face and stood up. I smile to myself as I
the answers I needed. He told me that it was a mix of
