When the wolves come knocking by Becca (best fantasy books to read TXT) 📖

feeling this was going to be a very weroid day. I went into the bathroom and looked in the mirror. My hair usally dosn't get messed up when im sleeping, and it didn't this time. I quickly ran a brush through it. My hair wasn't that curly, just wavy and it wasn't very thick eaither. I went back into my room, and you might have guessed this already, Demetri was leaning agenist a wall, waiting. I sighed. "What freakish thing is ganna happen to me today?" I asked. He smirked. "Not everything happens to be freakish. Why can't this bea normal day?" Ha, normal. "Because not one day in my life is normal" I said, now I was the one hiding a smirk. He held out his hand to me, showing the 2 white pills. Smile gone now, I grumbled and took them. I felt just fine, I dont need them. I took them anyway. "How come you don't drink anything with it?" he asked.

I looked at him, shocked for a moment. "I always do it like that, not like Im the only one" I said, rembering Ryan, and Lissa. They both didn't need water. The thought of them made me wish I was there, and I was regreting that promise last night. "Don't look like that. What are you thikning?" he asked, walking twords me. Oh god, now I felt like I cheated on Ryan. How could I ever do that? "Nouthing" I replided, looking at my glasses case. I had to get rid of that thing, or I was break my bromise within 2 hours. I think he decided not to push it. "Well, today is proubly going to be freakish, you might think. My father wants you to start classes, and they're just fighting really, so thats what we're doing today. Say hello to your new teacher" he said smirking. My jaw almost dropped to the floor. I wanted to burst out laughing, him teaching me to fight? Wasn't he the one who got thrown into a tree? "Hey, are you laughing at me?" he asked, mock offended. I guess I was laughing. "Well, you kinda got beat by a tree" I said, surpressing my laughter. "That was a very tough tree" he replied. "Now lets go, you hungrey?" he started walking twords the door, I fallowed. "No" I wasn't hungry at all. He looked at me hesitantily, "You sure?" he asked. I rolled my eyes, "Yeah, Im not hungry".

He shrugged and I fallowed him out the door and through the confussing halls. I was about to question him when if seemed like we've been walking for 15 min. But we entered a, what looked like half weight room, the other half was nouthing but the mat on the floor. It was huge. "Okay, Im pretty sure you know the basics of fighting" he said, looking at me. I shrugged, of course I did. He took that as a yes. "Show me" he becond me twords him. I didn't like this, I feel self-concious. I hesitated, and he saw that I didn't want to start it off. "Or I will" he said. I took a step forward, he was on offencive, me on defencive. His leg shot out to knock my feet from under me, I already saw it comming and I jumpped. His fist shot out twords my shoulder as soon as I jumpped, I was kinda expecting that, I twisted away from the blow. When I landed I regained my balance quickly. He tried to hit me again, he was getting quick. He managed to get my shoulder, that made me stumble a little. Round house kick, I just managed to duck it. His fist shot out twords me, but it didn't connect, instead his leg shot out and knocked my feet out from under me. Just as quickly as I landed, he pinned me down. He smirked down at me. "Pretty good, give uup yet?" he asked. "You wish" I said, pushing him off me. He didn't expect me to push him off, so thats proubly the only reason I got up. He was on his feet, beconing me twords him. Oh this was going to be fun. He was fast, I was faster. I kicked out at his side, he was suprised by my quickness and I managed to nick him before I was out of range. He copyed me, and I doged him. Okay, maby he wasn't going to copy me, because now I was on defencive. Fists flying, kicks going. He got me proubly 20 times, we were in there for 3 hours.

In the end, I tried a round house kick, but he caught my foot and flipped me, I ended up on my back. That hurt. Demetri looked down at me. "You okay?" he asked, holding his hand out to me. I took it, "Nope, I feel like I was run over by a car" I grumbled. "Next time you can just run" he chuckled. I really hoped he was joking, I hate running. "Oh, Aliki wants to see you" he said, laughter fading. Damnit, I was hoping he wouldn't tell. I groaned. "Groan all you want, not like your ganna die. Come one" he said leading me through all the halls that I was yet to rember. He opened the door and called to Aliki. We stood akwardly in the room as Aliki came in. He too looked kinda akward. "Can I see your...wrist?" he asked finally. I hesitated, then held out my hand out, wrist up. He gingerly took it, looking at it cauticualy. Oh god, this was embaressing, do I have no personal life? "Do you know why you did it?" he asked. "Yup" I said nonchallantly. There was meanig to my word, meaning, there was no way in hell I was ganna tell him. He took the hint. "Well, they look fine, just...think before you act, okay?" he said. I could see he was concerned, but I didn't want his concern. He let go of my wrist, and I pulled my sleeve back down. He took out a pill bottal from a drawer, handing it to Demetri. Course, dont trust the suicidal teen. "Depressing pills" he explained. Demetri seemed to already know about it. If I hadn't been tired and starving, I sware I would slap them both. Before we left, Aliki asked what I had been hoping no one would. "What did you use?" I flinched. I kinda felt like smirking too, because I was smarter than all the idoits here. No one ever checks the glasses case. "Somthing" I mumbled. Neither one of them liked the answer. "What somthing?" Demetri pressed. I threw my arms up. "Look, Im not ganna do it again, so don't worry about it" They left it at that.

We walked into the kitchen, Im starting to think Demetri can hear my thoughts, or stomachs. "I know your hungry" he said, handing me a sandwich that I think popped out of thin air. "Yup" I said taking a bite. Ham and cheese, my second fave. He is a stalker, I am now deciding. He sat on a stool next to me, eating his sandwhich. When we finished, he went to the fridge. "Pepsi?" he asked, not looking at me. Big time stalked. "Yeah" I said, taking it from him. He had Dr. pepper. "Um..you gotta take this" he said, handing me a yellowish pill. Depression. I surpressed the urge to scream and took it. Demetri thought for a moment. "Do you want to look around?" he finally asked. I nodded slowly, he didn't think I would plan on escaping. Honestly, I wasn't going to. What would be the point, because I would either die, of get caught. "Okay, lets go" he said, getting off his chair. I hopped off mine and fallowed him. As we walked, he pointed out things, where they were, how to get outside (now I know he dosn't think I can) and I didn't rember any of it. There was reasturaunts, cafes, and I couldn't belive it eaither, a pet shop. When he pointed it out I stopped and looked at the kittens. He seemed to chuckle at me for being childish about animals, but I loved them. Two orange ones were jumpping on a dark grey one so I shooed them off and picked the grey one up. The kitten purred happily in my hands and licked my thumb. I let out a small laugh and set the kitten down. Demetri was looking at me with that adoring look he seemed to have alot. "Lets keep going" I said before he could ask any questions. We continued through the halls, went outside staying near the, well whatever building this is. When we got back, dinner was on the table, and I was tired. I didn't pay attion to it, and don't rember what it even was, as I ate it. Demetri, however seemed amused at my tiredness. "You seem tired" he said when we finished eating. We began walking twords my room, "No duh" I said, yawning. He opened my door and I went stright to my dresser and took out pjs. "Cant you handle a day without passing out?" he teased. "Go die in a hole" I mumbled and shut the bathroom door behind me. I had grabbed a purple kammie and silky purple bottams with black hearts. I went back into my room and threw my clothes in the hamper. I turned to Demetri, who was looking at my necklaces that hung on a small rack kinda thing on the dresser. "Do you hace to look through my stuff?" I asked. He grinned at me and pulled me twords him. "Yeah, I do" he said, lightly kissing my neck. He let me go, "Night Kit" he whispered, then went into his room. Slightly dazed, I stumbled to bed and fell asleep.

I ghasped and sat up. I don't know what wake me up, and Im not sure if it was a dream. I don't rember having a dream at all. Then I sensed it, someone was in the room, very close. I listened, I could hear Demetri slightly snoring in his room, and slow breathing to my right. I whipped around to see a Demon lunging at me. I screamed, hoping it would wake up Demetri. I flew off the bed and a hand clamped over my mouth. Two more deamons came out of the shadows as Demetri came into my room. I was yanked to my feet and a knife pressed to my throut. It felt like ice agenist my skin, and I instantly became still. Demetri, who had been battling with the two other Deamons stopped. "Come any closer and the girls dead" the deamon behind me hissed. Demetri took a step closer. The knife pressed deeper into my skin, and I whimperd. Hot blood trickled down my neck. Demetri froze. "My name is Sal, were taking dear Charolette here with us. We might bring her back, but that chance will be gone if you take one step forward" sal, the deamon behind me said. Demetri took a step back. He looked torn, pain in his eyes. Sal chuckled, "Thats a good dog" he said, stepping back, pulling me with him. The knife was gone from my neck, but a arm was wrapped firmly around my arms. I made one last feeble attempt to escape by kicking out behing me. Nouthing happened. "I will get you back" Demetri said, looking into my eyes. I nodded, beliving the detiremation in his voice. Sal picked me up, and lept out the window with the others, just as 4 armed people burst into the room.

All of this happened so fast, I was half convinced I was dreaming. One thing I knew for sure right now is that deamons
