Chapter 1

• Chapter 1
• DAVINA’S POV
• The creaking sound of my door opening made my eyes shoot open. I heaved a small sigh, slowly reaching for my bedside lamp.
• My heart raced like it was part of a marathon, as muffled steps approached my bed. That familiar pine scent filled my nostrils and my stomach churned in discomfort.
• I flickered the switch on and jolted out of my bed. My stepbrother paused on his track, frozen as if he had just been caught doing the unthinkable.
• "Ryan!!! Uh! What are you doing here so late at night? Do you need something?" I asked, backing away from him.
• "Hi! Urm. I apologize for disrupting your sleep, it's midnight and I am not supposed to be here…
• "Y–Yes! You are not supposed to be here." I drew on those words, making it known that his presence made me super uncomfortable.
• Ryan remained quiet as if thinking of his next line, my eyes drifted to the wall clock and it clearly showed 2 am. My stepmother would be fast asleep, I guess that's why he is here at such an unruly hour.
• "Davina. Why do you look so tense, I promise I am not here to harm you."Ryan took a step forward and I backed away immediately.
• "It's inappropriate to be in my room by this time of the night. Please leave, whatever you need, I will help you out with it tomorrow." I said hoping he would leave without causing a ruckus.
• "Fine,"Ryan said, his lips stretching into a smirk.
• Everything was off about that smirk, yet I didn't realize what his plans were until he bolted my door lock and slipped the key into his pocket.
• "W–Why did you do that?" I stuttered, fear crawling up my skin like a wide animal.
• This cannot be happening, it has to be a very bad dream, I wiped my wet palms on my flimsy nightgown and thought of a possible escape route.
• I live in a duplex and right now I am regretting it. My room was on the top floor, and if I tried to get out the window, I might break a leg.
• Fuck! I can't even defend myself, I don't have my wolf yet, it just keeps getting worse.
• Oh moon Goddess please if you are up there, help me.
• "Get out of my room Ryan, please just go." I clasped my hand, tears blurring my vision.
• "Oh come on Davina, you are my sister. Step–sister and I would never hurt you. Let's not beat around the bush, okay? Give me what I want and I will be out of here even before you know it."
• Ryan sank into my bed, wearing a confident smile on his face. "Come on, let's get this over with." He beckoned on me but I didn't move an inch.
• Escaping looked so slim, but I wasn't going to give up that easily. With a racing heart and a foggy mind, I dashed for the door and pulled hard on it, Nothing.
• It didn't open, I tried harder but it still didn't open, my heart sank in my stomach, and tears streamed down my face. I kept pulling and pulling ignoring Ryan who laughed and made a mockery of my attempt.
• It made me feel weak, I had never felt this weak in my 17 years of living. I banged on the wooden door, screaming at the top of my voice." HELP!!! Somebody help me please, anyone at all, please, stepmother."
• Ryan laughter increased and my hope diminished, there was no one out there, no one to save me. Tears streamed down my face as I slumped down in defeat.
• He got up from my bed, taking slow strides toward me, I coiled up to the door tightly wrapping my hands around my legs, scared of what he would do to me.
• His tall and broad figure towered over me like a palm tree, I felt small and timid under his stare.
• "Oh little sis, are you crying? Why cry when big brother is here for you? I will be in and out in a jiffy, now wipe those precious tears." Anger welled up inside me as he tried to brush my tears off, my blood boiled in fury, that I didn't realize I had grabbed his hand and bitten deep into it.
• I thought it was my imagination, but his loud groan said otherwise." Arrh! You fucking bitch." He snatched his hand from my grip and collided the other to my face.
• My cheek stung so bad, I let out a whimper, I spat out the blood that formed in my mouth and glared hard at Ryan who was nurturing his bleeding hand.
• I felt content to see him in pain but dreaded what he would do to me after this.
• "You are such a fool, you ruined it all, I wanted to go easy on you but not anymore." Ryan roughly pulled me up and tossed me on my bed, I hit my head hard on the headrest and coiled up in pain.
• I grabbed my banging head trying to relieve myself of the pain, but Ryan didn't give me a chance.
• He pounced on me and captured my hands, pinning them above my head. I struggled to get out of his strong grip but I only angered him.
• Another ear-deafening slap landed on my face." Please!" I cried out helplessly.
• Ryan tore my nightgown rendering me naked with just my panties on, his eyes glimmered with lust, as he stared at my exposed boobs.
• Shame washed through my entire being, I wished I could shut my mind off, I tried to but the feel of his mouth on my nipple snapped me back to reality.
• I couldn't let this happen, my flesh had given up, but my spirit was strong and unwilling to let him succeed.
• I couldn't comprehend what happened next but I suddenly lost control, it felt like something was drawing my mind back, I blinked repeatedly trying to fight off whatever was getting access to my mind, then it felt like I was looking out of someone else's eyes, I was no longer in control of my body.
• "GET OFF HER!!!" A loud unknown voice erupted from me, but it wasn't me, it was someone else.
• Realization hit me hard and tears streamed down my face. I finally had my wolf and she came to save me.
• The shock on Ryan’s face was one in a million, he crawled away from me and fell off my bed, backing away like I was a monster.
• Then I noticed my white fur and really large paws. I stood taller than my five foot one inch, so tall I was almost reaching the ceiling.
• Now it was my turn to pounce on a frightened Ryan, my wolf growled and snarled at him. I could feel her anger and it was enough to tear Ryan into pieces that moment, but I was no murderer and neither will my wolf be.
• This was my first shift, and the bond was new to me, but I had to calm her down.
• " Please let him go." There was silence and only Ryan whimpers could be heard, then she backed away, and Vince used that as a means to run out of my room, he had almost forgotten he locked the door.
• The keys trembled in his hands as he opened the door, he ran out the moment the door bolted open.
• Alone in my room, I slumped to the ground tired, my eyes grew heavy and closed on their own accord, darkness followed.
