After Three Days…
Today was the day for the hunt. The excitement and the thrill were basically in the air.
After the first day when I lost Darkena to these beasts, I tried my hard to practice and plan to get revenge for her.
I still can remember how they took her.

Flashback "Good morning Amelia.”
"Good morning to you too Dark."
"Hey, I'm really sorry for yesterday. I was afraid and frightened...That's why I didn't talk much. I hope you understand Amee."
"Why? what happened Dark?"
“Can you remember the guy who talk to us when we first came. Well I have been feeling weird vibes from him.
Like I can trust him and want him with me.”
"I was so afraid...But last night I figured it out. I think he is my mate Amee.”
“WHAT??? No, Dark, it can't be. Oh no...but he is so violent.”
“I know, right? Let's just hope I'm wrong.”
After we had that little talk two guards came to the room with a maid.
“Who is Darkena? "
“That's me. Why? "
"Yeah why? You got a problem with my friend dudes?"
"Seize the girl! "
"Oh no!! You are not taking my friend away. Dark, please not her, you sick bastards!"
"Amee...Ame please save me!"
They hold me until my friend was taken to God knows where.
And I just watched it helplessly.
The only friend I found in this god forsaken place was gone.
End of Flashback.

After a quick breakfast we were asked to be prepared by maids.
I wore my leather gear with the dagger.
I got in front of the mirror and the maid started to do a side braid on my hair.
So much has changed in these past couple of days. From inside out.
My normal bluish black hair is reddish brown at the ends my normal tan color skin glows to a golden hue.
My midnight black eyes shine with a spark.
And is almost glowing like two black orbs.
My body is glowing and my already curious figure is taking an hourglass shape with the extra care to my body.
All in all it seems like the polishing did a great work on me.
After getting ready we were escorted to the edge of the forest.
Werewolf guards took us there and no one spoke to us.
Then the man from first night I think someone named as High Beta came.
"Ladies today we mark the beginning of Royal Mate Hunt. On my signal you are to be released.
Then you have to run and when I say run, RUN for your lives."
"Good luck! "
And with that the sly bastard was gone and we were forced to look ahead.
After what felt like forever, there was a loud bang along with the words run.
I was shocked for a moment. But after the initial shock I ran.
And hell yeah I ran like I'm going to die.
Like it’s my life at risk.
Because I felt and knew what was coming after me. After all of us.
The unmated wolves.
After five minutes I heard the thundering sound of paws and the crunching sounds of leaves.
And just like that I knew we were given a head start just to make the chase more enjoyable. To give that thrill for the wolves.
They are the predators and luckily we are the preys. Note the sarcasm.
I didn't slow down a bit. I knew for sure that what it will do to me. Also I knew that I can't run for long.
So I weighed my options and thought to hide.
After running like hell I came up to a huge tree. And I took off climbing the tree. I was already exhausted. So I climbed it to get a rest and to hide.
But when I climbed I heard the screaming of women begging for help.
They were screaming and crying for help, and it pained me that how much I'm helpless to help them.
Few minutes passed with the screaming, and it died down to an eerily silence.
A deathly silence and with the exhaustion my body gave up and fell asleep.
A little sleep won't hurt a fly isn't it?
Or Does it??
