” Do you think he might be referring to our daughter? ” I asked my husband.

” And why would you think like that? ” He asked back.

” Because Diana is the only one who has a puppy. ” I replied.

” Had. ” He corrected. ” And besides, Micky is gone for a long time. So, it’s definitely not our daughter. ”

” I think so, but I don’t know why I still feel like it’s her he’s talking about. ” I said, feeling worried and scared.

” That’s because you’re overthinking about it. Who knows if they are actually lying in order to take one of us? Those creatures are the least thing you’ll ever want to believe. Don’t bother yourself about them, okay? ”

I nodded, even though it still wasn’t convincing at all.
Diana has a blond her, and she’s the only one with a puppy.

Not that there’s no other girls with a pet, nor a dog, I’m just trying to explain that Diana’s puppy is still little compared to the others.

I don’t know why they were here last night, but whatever reason they’ve got, it’s really not safe for the Acandians.

We have only tonight to provide the girl. What if it was Diana he was referring to, what are we going to do?

Call Kelvin, informing him that some kinda human-animal wants our daughter? What do you think he’s gonna say?

Are you crazy? You really want to give out your daughter to some animal? For what?

That’s the part I can’t answer. For what??

It’s two months to Christmas and I’ve always wished desperately for the days to run faster. But seeing as things are going complicated, I’m wishing tonight will be eternity.

I cuddled my blanket around my body, thinking of how tommorow will go.

One could notice the fear in the other, it was too obvious in the eyes that we all looked scared since they left.

*

Now I know that not all prayers are being answered. The night passed like the other nights, the entire streets was still dried.

I stared out of the window, like I was some kind of watch knight awaiting to ring their coming to everyone.

There was a young boy, aged eighteen I guess, he was assigned to notify if they were coming to the village.

I don’t know if anyone else is as scared as I am but, I can feel my heart drumming against my chest that I could notice my teeth gnashing too.

” Are you okay? ” He asked.

” Yeah, I am. ” I said, cuddling myself tighter. ” Good morning. ”

” Good morning. Come on, I made you breakfast. ”

I nodded.

While we ate, we were eating silently. It’s half past nine o’clock and yet, everywhere is as dried as twelve midnight.

We were alarmed as the young boy shouted aloud, ” They are coming! The wolves are coming!! They are getting closer!!! ”

We dropped our food, looking at each other with fright written on our face.

We left our homes, leaving to the field. We always do that each time the wolves were coming, it was part of the rules they had given us.

They conclude in a particular decision and next time it’s changed. A new one is made and we’re left to follow them or we’ll face the consequences.

We’re humans and they’re animals. Animals are meant to be submissive to humans and we are to have dominion over them.

But this ones are different, this is the opposite…

They have dominion power over us, and we are the submissive creatures. We all gathered before they could make it to the village.

As usual, we all bowed in unison the moment they all halted. ” Is the girl here? ” Was the first thing he asked.

No one could look at his neighbor, no one dares to do that. We were forbidden to misbehave in front of the alpha wolf, and it also has it’s punishment.

Lot of rules were made and we have no other choice but to follow them.

” Do I have to repeat myself again?! ” He stormed, ” Where is the girl?! ” He repeated.

” We can’t find here, Sire because we don’t know who she is. ” Said a man. He was shivering but when he tried to talk further, one of the wolves had his throat sliced.

He held his neck, shocking for air. He was bleeding profusely and we were all left in awe and more fear grew in us.

He scoffs, ” Seems like I’ll just have to kill the rest of you. So, I’m gonna ask for the last time, where is the girl? ” He asked again.

Marco held my hand as he noticed the way I was trembling in fear. I wasn’t putting on something too heavy, but I was sweating profusely.

I can feel my sweat, rolling from my face down to my abdomen. Nothing, not even his grip seems to be helping matters.

I shut my eyes close, and when I opened it, I saw him staring at me. Trying to compose myself was all in vain as he was directly looking at me.

” Marco, he’s looking at me. ” I whispered in a way only Marco could hear.

” Calm down, you’re too nervous and he’s noticed it.” He whispered. ” Don’t let him suspect you. ”

” What if he already has? ”

” Just calm down. Take a deep breath. ”

I took a deep breath, exhaling heavily.

But do you think that’s enough to convince him? He already caught me, who am I fooling around?

He rode his horse towards our direction, halting in front of me. ” You’re nervous, why? ” He asked.

I never knew an alpha would sound so good like this. We have believed alpha wolfs were this rude, hungry-tasted and scary annoying creatures.

But guess I’m a bit wrong about that. ” No,” I replied, ” I’m not. ”

” Do you know anything about the girl I’m talking about? ”

” I… ”

He interrupted, ” Don’t think about lying to me, I know when you lie and when you tell the truth. ”

I notice Marco hold me tight, I couldn’t stop staring into his eyes. If I have to lie, I just couldn’t. Staring in his eyes was like staring into the mirror of truth.

” She’s not here. ” I managed to say, at least I aren’t lying.

” Where is she? ” He asked again.

I didn’t talk. ” Where is she? ” He repeated.

” Sh.. she’s… at.. ” I took a deep breath, ” She’s at America with her uncle. ”

” What part of America is she? ”

” New York City. That’s where she’s staying. ” I started crying. I should be protecting my daughter, but I was seeing myself betraying her.

” Good. ” He smirked for a while. ” But, if I ever find out that you are lying to me, I will come back for you and every single soul here. ” He wore an evil smirk on his face, exiting the village with the rest of his packs.
