Taming The Beast In Him
Ready to protect

Roseline POV

I took deeper breaths while trying to calm my racing heart, I couldn't believe it when Lucas said those words.

"We have to leave" I urged Jefferson, who ultimately looked panicked as I am. "What is the matter," he asked while looking at me with an uneven expression.

"The.. the pack" I stammered, unable to voice out of the pain.

"What happened to the pack?".

"It's been invaded," I said, as hot tears sprinkled down my cheeks, I couldn't bring myself to say a word, because I was feeling nothing but immense pain, he brought me closer to his chest while trying to comfort me.

"You need to calm down, Because everything would be alright" he assured me, while I knew deep within me. There is that lurking fear in me that I can't deny, even if I wanted to.

I ruffled my hair in frustration. He cupped my cheeks making me look at him, which I did, it was clear enough that he was feeling my pain, I couldn't hold myself any longer, no matter how I tried.

"We need to go," he said to me, I agreed with him, before I joined him in the car as we left, while the driver was driving, I felt cold shivers run down my spine, making me even more restless than I had expected, I couldn't bring myself to say a word, I was feeling so scared and I knew that something was wrong. After some time, I decided that I needed to do the right thing, which was to meet Micheal personally.

I noticed the way Jefferson would steal glances at me before he would stretch a worried look on his Face.

"I Know you are worried, but I want to assure you that everything would be alright" he consoled, which made me relish a deep breath, I can't bring myself to say a word, but I was already scared about the lives of people in the pack. After thirty minutes of driving the long highway, the driver then packed his car beside a nearby tree, due to the ear-piercing screams that filled the air.

My heart rumbled in agony, as I hear the sound of people crying and wailing at the thought of everything happening to them, I can't bring myself to adjust to the single thought of it. my heart sank while a cold shiver was sent down my spine. Then Jefferson held me close by embracing me, "you need to stay back in the car while I see what's happening there" he said to me while trying to gather my bearings, I was trying so hard not to think much about it, but I just can't help it, at the slight thought of what would eventually become of me, I seeped in mouthfuls of breaths, before I stopped him from going.

He looked at me confused, almost like I was delaying the outcome of the situation.

My eyes welled before I moved closer to him and I placed a gentle on his lips, it made me so overwhelmed with different emotions, " please take care of yourself, I don't want anything to happen to you" I voiced out my pain, making me took a deep breath, that made me even more overwhelmed.

He then allowed the whole thought it sink in before he dived deeper into the kiss, then he turned to the driver who was still sitting in the driver's seat.

"Take care of her, protect her with your life if you have to" he commanded with a harsh tone before he vanished into thin air.

I then shoved myself inside the car, before I cuddled myself in a ball, slight thoughts of what was happening, made me curl my fist in rage, wondering who might have come to trigger our moment of peace. I just want to have peace of mind, have kids, then enjoy my life to the fullest.

But certain problems, Just kept on arising making me even more self-conscious of myself, then Stared at the driver who maintained eye contact on the car wheel, almost like he was thinking about something.

There was fear etched on his face, the fear that was clear enough on his face, making him look even more handsome and wonderful, I can't bring myself to say a word, but I just wanted to be fully sure that everything would be alright. After countless minutes of trying to wrap my thoughts around what is happening, I then Heard sounds of grunts, growls, and groans that fills the air, which managed to send a cold shiver down my spine.

I felt even more scared than I had earlier expected, the moment I noticed a pack of wolves approaching, they bared their fangs and snarled at me, still maintaining eye contact with me, while I was still in the car, I jolted in fear, almost feeling numb at the thought of what they would do to me, I don't know what to do, but I was scared, I want to make things right and be better in my life, but at the, I can't get even a little time with Jefferson, I just hope he arrives as fast as possible, I don't want anything to happen to him.

Time went by so swiftly before I was yanked into the strong hands of an old man who seemed way so older than me.

"Come with me," he said with a husky too, his disgusting breath fanned my nostrils, I yelped in pain while trying to adjust myself, I tried as much to take deeper breathes, in other to stop myself from achieving my aims, I can't help it, I sincerely want to be out there and fight for my rights, but I'm not strong enough.

I only replace my unknown energy when I see Jefferson is on the plains, it made me baffled at the thought of everything, and what had triggered this invasion.

"Who had ordered you here?" I asked, while being dragged, I noticed the driver transformed into a full wolf as he launched himself at the man who had me in his grip, tears filled my eyes, the way I noticed the driver was fighting relentlessly while showing his great skills of fighting, I wanted to cry and shout at the top of my voice, but I know it'll be of no use.

I tried as much as possible to forget about everything, but I can't, no matter how hard I tried, I then saw a man who seemed to be in his early twenties, he had an expression, that showed he was not happy with the outcome of the situation, tears filled my eyes and made me aware that they might have captured a lot of people from the pack.

The driver continued fighting, but not until one of the men drive a knife into his being, allowing himself to make an ear-piercing growl, it took me by surprise knowing full well he was sending an alarm signal to Jefferson that I'm about to be captured. I cried, a cry of both pain and agony, I couldn't bring myself to say a word, but deep within me, I felt everything.

Before I could realize what was going on, I felt a punch being roughly Landed on me, which made my vision blurry and my Head dizzy, my heart sank, I tried to keep my eyes open but I can't, no matter how hard I tried before I succumb to the darkness that envelope my entire being.
