Chapter 8 Who Is He?

  • Octavia POV
  • It was already getting late, and mom and dad are yet to come back from labor. I would've gone out to search for them, but they already pleaded to never step out of the house, no matter what happens, the reason behind that, is still a mystery, which I'm yet to understand, and I'm already dying of curiosity.
  • Letting out a sigh, I yawned hungrily, before continuing with reading my book, but my mind kept wandering away from it. My stomach wouldn't stop grumbling violently, I haven't eaten anything since morning, so I don't blame my tiny bowel to be making noise. Even my wolf was hungry too, but we just gat to endure it, until mom and dad gets back, I'm sure they'll bring something home for me.
  • I fixated my gaze on the book, giving it all my attention, trying to get distracted from the hunger, that kept trying to take over me.
  • After reading with an empty stomach for what seemed like forever, I started feeling weak and sleepy, I couldn't even get on my feet, so I just laid on the mat, and allowed sleep take over me, taking me to dreamland.
  • "Let me go you bastard!" I growled angrily, as I kept struggling to free myself, from the two hefty men, that held me down on my knees. Looking around the place, I realized that I was in what seemed like a courtroom. How did I got here? What have I done?
  • I tried using my power, but nothing seemed to be working.
  • "You bastards! I'm so going to deal with you!" I growled angrily, but the idiots paid deaf ears to my threats, they neither said a word, neither did they react, which left me thinking they must be deaf or something.
  • "How can you be harassing a lady in this manner, huh? Don't you have respect, huh!" I yelled angrily, still struggling to free myself from their dirty grip, but it only got worsened, as they tightened their grip on me. Ok now I'm screwed. What the heck is happening here?
  • "Ok I'll be calmed now, just let me go, we can sort this amicably, you know? Just tell me what I've done wrong, I promise, I'll apologize, just stop this harassment." I said calmly, trying to get them to reason with me.
  • The idiots didn't say a word to me. Like, what the heck! Are they dumb?
  • "Are you both dumb or deaf? Don't make me lose it, I promise, you won't like what will happen, if I lose it. I'm warning you now, let me go before I do something nasty." I yelled angrily.
  • "You're going to lose your energy if you continue like that, Octavia." A deep demonic voice filled the place, followed by a dark and intimidating aura, which consumed the entire place.
  • What! Who's that? How did he know my name?
  • The two hefty men, holding me down, quivered in fear, as they seemed to be affected by the aura. I didn't need anyone to tell me that whoever the person is, must be a dangerous creature.
  • They finally left me, and I heaved a sigh, before getting up on my feet. Turning around to check out where the aura was coming from, I was welcomed with the most scaring creature I've ever set my eyes on. It was a mysterious man, he looked so dangerous, with his very long claws, a big cloak wore on his body, with the big hoodie cap, covering his head, making his face invisible.
  • My heart tightened in fear, as I felt adrenaline pumping all over my body, my legs started wobbling on the floor, as my whole body trembled in rhythm with the violent beating of my heart, the atmosphere was very cool, but yet, I felt my whole body heat up, sweats emanating from all parts of my body.
  • The demon or whatever he is, took slow and steady steps towards me, and with every steps he takes, I found my whole body getting drown in fear, my soul was leaving me slowly, as his aura kept consuming me.
  • He finally stopped in front of me, and slowly, he raised his long claws to touch my face. My heart skipped at the sight of him, in as much as I wanted to step away from him and run for my life, I couldn't bring myself to moving, as I felt my legs, rooted to the spot with an invisible force, in as much as I wanted to run from the death, standing before me, my curiosity to know he is, kept consuming me, as I found myself, staring deep at the demon, trying to get a glimpse of what he actually look like. Even if he is going to kill me, I should see his face, right?
  • "Wh...who are you?" I finally forced myself to ask the question, which have I have been asking loudly inside of me.
  • He stopped his hand in mid air, and clenched his fist slowly, watching me. Even if I can't see his face, I know he isn't having pleasing look on.
  • "Do you want to know who I am?" His demonic voice thundered, ripping me of my braveness. I felt like my heart was being ripped off my chest, the fear in me triggered again, as my whole body started trembling and drowning in fear. I know I won't survive this though, he's sure going to kill me, but why? What exactly is my crime?
  • Like he was contemplating on whether to take the hoodie off his face, it took him what seemed like forever, before his hand finally reached his head, holding the hoodie, and ready to pull it off.
  • My eyes suddenly became heavy, by the time he pulled off the hoodie off his head, his face was blur,. I tried forcing my eyes opened, at least to see his face, but the more I tried, the more they became heavy, and slowly, his image faded away, followed by a faint voice, calling my name...
