Chapter 1
Isabella Whitlock knew she was in trouble the moment she turned the corner on the darkened street. She wasn't sure why she decided to wonder off; common sense wasn't exactly her strong point. Neither was asking for help. That's probably why she was more than a few blocks away from her shitty motel room in this god awful town.
What was a strong point of hers were her instincts. But for some reason she wasn't listening to them earlier and since she didn't plan on wondering off in this strange town, she figured everything would be ok. Judging by the looks of the three men in front of her, they didn't look like they would be willing to give her directions back.
Common sense would have been to start screaming or to turn around and run. As stated earlier, she didn't have any.
She did have fear though and that fear caused her to stay where she was and do nothing. Peter and Char would be so disappointed and pissed if she got herself killed. All those self-defense classes wasted.
The guy in front, obviously the leader, stepped forward a few feet. It put him directly under the street light and she got her first look at him. She fought the urge to puke. He was about 5'10'' and a hundred pounds overweight. His hair looked like it hadn't been washed in over a year, and what little teeth he did have was rotten. Must be either homeless or he just doesn't give a shit about his appearance, Isabella thought to herself.
"Hey there darling. What's a sweet smelling thing like you doing all the way out here in my territory? We don't get many visitors, 'specially good looking ones like you. I bet you taste mighty good. Good enough to eat." He smiled, showing off his black teeth. His two sidekicks, who she just noticed had stepped forward a couple feet, laughed with him; they didn't look any better than him.
Most of what he said didn't fully register with her. Her main focus was on the knife he just pulled out of his boot. It wouldn't be the first time she had a knife pulled on her. Unfortunately, she didn't see herself making it out of this one alive.
Peter and Char, her parents for all intents, were not here to help. No, she decided that she needed a break from them and wanted to travel by herself for a few weeks. Of course, there were other vampires she knew, but none close enough for her to call. This would be kind of hard seeing as how she left her phone back at the motel.
Add being stupid to the list of 'not so strong points.'
Her only hope was that Peter 'knew' this was going to happen and send her some help. Him and Char were probably too busy enjoying the alone time. This being the first time she has been away from them in 18 years.
While in her own little world, the three guys had moved a little closer. Before they came too close, she heard a loud growl coming from her left. She knew that sound came from a vampire; she spent her whole life around nothing but those sounds.
Hopefully, he was sent by Peter to save her. If not, she had to deal with a possibly hungry vampire and the 3 guys in front of her. She had absolutely no chance of coming out of this one alive.
Obviously the 3 guys heard the growl too, but what surprised her was their answering growl. It didn't exactly sound human, but not vampire either. Suddenly, what they said earlier registered.
Oh god.
"Hey vamp, this ain't your territory. This is the territory of our Alpha Jake, and he ain't going to be too happy when we tell him about you being here and interrupting our fun. Why don't ya get out of here while you still can?" The one in front who I thought was the leader spoke up. Now Isabella knew what they were and she tried to contain the fear she was felling knowing that both the vampire and the werewolves in front of her would smell it.
Werewolves and not the ones that could shape shift whenever they wanted; these were the true full moon wolves. She had heard stories growing up about them. To vampires they smelt of rotting flesh, probably because that's mainly what they ate while in wolf form. They spent most of their time between full moons finding the best humans around; didn't matter if they were men, women, or children.
Disgusting creatures.
The vampire had stayed in the shadows but began to walk forward once the creature in front of her quit talking. She had met plenty vampires in her short life with Peter and Charlotte; good looking and ugly, but there was just something about this one that was different. His very being screamed 'stay the fuck away from me'.
Very feral, dominating and very, very sexy.
A/N: ok so I know this is a short chapter and it's been a few weeks, but I just wanted to get this out there. I haven't had much time to write since my kids have been sick most of the time. Sorry, I will try to get the next one out quicker.
