When I awoke, I smelt a familiar scent. I tried to move towards the scent, but found I was tied to a tree. When I tried to call out I found I was gagged. Now I was starting to panic. I felt my eyes turn yellow and I growled at the back of my throat. I bit the gag off, and bared my teeth. I wouldn't transform yet, I needed to find out why I was being held here.
"Ahh the tame one," I heard someone say, but I couldn't quite put my finger on who it was.
"Nice to see you again Maddy, we didn't really connect in our last visit did we now."
Oh great. Ceri. Rhydian's mam. Joy. Oh how I hated this stupid woman. She'd taken Rhydian away from me. Bitch. I growled at her. That means Rhydian must be nearby.
"Where's Rhydian and what the hell do you want." I growled. She laughed.
"Rhydian's gone, "she sniggered. Whaaaat? I thought to myself.
"What?" I questioned. Ceri didn't reply so I repeated it again, but in a more menacing tone. She still didn't reply. I was getting angry now and I couldn't hold it in anymore. Where was Rhydian? I repeated it once more and when I didn't get a reply again, I growled and felt my inner wolf coming out. Before I knew it, I was on all fours and racing through the woods. So many questions were whizzing round inside my head. Why did Ceri want me? Where was Rhydain? Why didn't she answer? Ceri would've known that I would of wolfed out so why didn't she keep me in a cage or something? I was concentrating so hard on these questions, that I didn't even know where I was going. And before I knew it, I was racing back to my house, still in wolf form. I quickly changed back and then climbed in through my window. I felt weak and dizzy and I felt myself slowly buckling. I fell to the floor with a loud bang. My eyes were still open, but I just couldn't move. My mam came in followed by two other people. One of them was my dad but I couldn't tilt my head up enough to see the other persons face. My mam hoisted me up onto my bed and my jaw dropped to the floor. It was him. Rhydian, and he'd come back to me.
"We'll leave you to it," my parents said and they exited the room.
"Hey Mads," Rhydian said. Is that all he had to say? `hey Mads`? I kept my mouth closed.
"Maddy look I'm sorry okay? Please just accept that," he pleaded. I don't know what came across me, but I had a sudden burst of energy and I stood up and pressed into his body, wrapping my arms around him. He did the same back to me and I tilted my head up to look at him. He grinned at me. He hadn't changed at all. I didn't smile back, instead I pressed my lips into his. He replied to this motion by lifting me up and wrapping my legs around his waist. His lips were warm and just how I imagined them to be. We broke apart and the burst of energy left me, and I collapsed back onto the bed.
