Chapter 7
Zara’s point of view
No. No. I cried as I shook my head. The bloodshot red eyes looked deep into my eyes for a while, snarling and growling <b>at </b>me <b>as </b>I shook my head, trying to fight it off,
“No! No!” I cried
My eyes suddenly snap open <b>as </b><b>I </b>found myself looking up at a very unfamiliar ceiling. My heart is racing and I feel like there’s a burning sensation In my upper arm.
<b>“</b><b>Fuck</b>!” I <b>groaned </b>as I forced myself to sit up. I was in a T–shirt and a pair of joggers.
my feet as I struggled to get walk, feeling all drowsy.
1 slowly got up to my
“What the hell <b>was </b>she doing all the way there?” 1 heard Matco’s voice asking as I slowly strode out.
I don’t know. <b>Maybe </b>she went for a run” A voice I wasn’t familiar with responded as I listened to their conversation
<b>“</b><b>A </b>run? No bags or anything like that!” Mateo <b>asked</b>.
My heart was <b>racing </b><b>as </b>fast as I closed my eyes, wondering who he <b>was </b>speaking with. Could it be one of the pack members!
“Nothing. I didn’t find a bag or anything, the man lied as 1 frowned.
Why was he lying to Mateo I thought to <b>myself </b>as I staggered, making my way into the area that seemed like <b>a </b>living room.
You are awake,” Mateo beamed with a smile as I walked out, my eyes meeting with the man <b>who </b>was standing by the kitchen counter with his <b>hands </b>folded
I nonchntly nod my head.
“You shouldn’t be walking. The poison is still in y
<b>your </b>system” Mateo rushed to me as I sniffled back, thinking about those eyes I saw.
“What was that thing?” I asked him as he tried toe to my aid, but I lifted my hand, stopping him from touching me.
“<b>Uhmm</b><b>.. </b>We don’t know,” he finally <b>says </b>after a long pause while ncing at the man who was standing by the window.
“You saved my life. Thank you,” I thanked <b>him </b>as he bowed his head<b>, </b>looking <b>at </b>Mateo,
“Let’s get you home,” He said, trying toe near me, but I looked at the stranger, hoping he had my bag.
“I can take herter. She can <b>rest </b><b>until </b>the poison wears off” He suggested <b>as </b>Mateo let out a long growl in disagreement
I <b>ground</b>, holding my <b>head</b><b>, </b>and he let out an exasperated sigh.
“Rest up. I will check on youter,” he said, <b>walking </b>out of the room
I curtly bowed my head as he walked towards the door. I peeped out the window as he walked back to the car getting in and I listened out for anyone around the house.
“You lied to him. Why?” I asked him as he dropped his hands.
“I didn’t lie,” He retorted monotone <b>as </b>I pursed my lips together, holding my arm as I strode over to the kitchen counter.
“Here” he offered me a cup of coffee <b>as </b>I shook my head.
“I’m good. Not a coffee person,” I declined as I inhaled heavily.
“I know you have my bag 1 said to him as he sipped from the cup
I sighed heavily while gently stroking my hand.
“If you want to leave. Just ask him, the woods can be dangerous to people who don’t know them. He said to me as I swallowed hard
“I just can’t leave,” I muttered under my breath, lowering my head.
I cant believe this is what I found myself in when all I wanted was to get away from my family and backstabbing friends.
We can leave It’s just get theirst names and we can reject them. Paris remarked <b>as </b>I scoffed, making the stranger look at me.

“I don’t think I got your <b>naine</b>,” I said to him, leaning against the counter as his lips turned up into a smile
“I don’t think you asked,” He replied, grabbing a bag u
under the kitchen sink and handing it over to me.
My bag-
“I believe everything is there,” He stated as I took the bag from him.
“Thank you. UMM..
“Daniel,” He responded as I nonchntly nodded my head.
“It’s <b>my </b>pleasure..
Zara
“Nice to meet you, Zara,” he <b>said </b>to me, beaming with a smile, his green eyes lighting up
“I will be out of your <b>hair </b>now,” I said, making my way towards the door, my head was a bit drowsy, but I <b>knew </b>I should be getting out of there.
I made my way out of the house as soon as I stepped outside the house and I was lost.
I don’t know which way to go as step <b>back </b>into the house
“Can you point me toward the other type of cabin?”
“The not–so–nice ones?” H
He asked me as I nodded my head, chuckling.
“I will show you,” he said as we made our way out of the house, going through the different types
before we <b>finally </b>could see the cabins<b>.</b>
“So, which pack are you from? You are not a rogue<b>, </b>obviously,” he asked me as I swallowed hard, not sure if I should tell him.
“You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to,” he added <b>as </b><b>I </b>sighed heavily
Sorry Just don’t think I would want to tell you where I’m from right now,” I said to him, my lips turning into <b>a </b>smile as he chuckled softly. nodding his head.
“No problem. I understand,”
“Guess this is me,” I said <b>as </b>I stood outside the cabin and he nodded his head.
“Will leave you here then” He curtly bowed his head as I chuckled
“Please don’t do that” I gave him a weak smile
u one,” I said to him, lifting my bag as he nodded his head, waving at me.
“Thanks so much. I owe you
Sighing <b>heavily</b>, I entered the cabin, looking at all the dust collected on the covers.
Right now, leaving was not an option. I had to settle into this forsaken pack <b>until </b>I came up with a better n.
I would have to earn Daniel’s trust and maybe, just maybe, he would help me escape this fucking <b>pack</b>.
In the meantime, I was going to change this fucking house.
“Are we staying?” Skye <b>asked</b>, finally saying something after not uttering a word sincest night after <b>I </b>asked her to help Paris.
“Yes. Only <b>until </b>we find a way to get <b>out </b>of here,” I remarked as I stood in the middle of the room <b>thinking </b>of what life would be like for me after deciding to stay here.
