Chapter 81 - Deep In The Woods, Live The Wolves.



Her father did not budge on the topic of homeschooling. Whenever she came close to talk about it, he would just change the topic or would just reply that he would think about it.

He was most certainly not thinking about it. Or at least the eat she wanted him to.

​​

How was she being homeschooled ever going to help?

This time, again at night Adeline felt hungry which she felt was weird because the medicines that she took should have knocked her out for the night. Some were quite heavy but the doctors feared for any kind of damage because of which she was on heavy meds.

But like every other night for the past three weeks, she had to get up and eating. A lot more than usual and she has the same diet for the past years. Was it the meds that were making her hungry?

This time she made a peanut butter sandwich with cheese and pickles and it was delish!

It was enough for her to make three more. She took a seat on the porch again and enjoyed the night. Same as she had done every night. It had become a routine and she had fallen into it with ease.

This time she was thinking about the homeschooling that her father had talked about. As much as the benefits it had she did not want to be a new girl once again in her last year of high school. Homeschooling could surely make her grade go up but it could also end up making her lonely and depressed which was once again going to affect her grades more than it would have it pick up.

She knew that her father would understand if she talked to him about it, a little heart to heart. Her mother's that had shaken him to the very core and her existence is kept him going but almost losing her had been hard for him.

"Hey, neighbour." She looked to the same boy that had been talking to her. "Whatcha eating?" Hr stared at the food in her hands, trying to make it out. 

She smiled and answered, "Peanut butter sandwich with cheese and pickles."

The disgust on his face was clear. He blinked and looked away. "Ahem," he cleared his throat as she watched in amusement, "Well, enjoy. I am a good soul who won't ask you to share."

"But I want to share." She held up one and watched him keenly. "I want to be a good neighbour and a good friend."

"I think not." He joined his hand and shook his head making her laugh. He watched her eat before commenting, "Instead of having weird food combinations and adventures what do you think of having a real adventure?"

Adeline's ears perked up at that. For a long, while she had just been on bed rest and nothing had been exciting to her. She was not even allowed to get up from the bed. Xavier and her father had made sure of that and she was annoyed about that.

Everyone had been after her to rest and not take any pressure on her fractures. By now, with whatever wonders she had been given, she was able to walk on both legs without any pain now.

"What adventure?" She asked equally intrigued as he wanted her to be. This could be the remotely exciting thing she had had in a month.

He smirked and pointed to the woods. "Deep into the words, live wolves."

Adeline felt herself shiver at the words and tone he used.

But he continued, "We thought that they were instinct by now but they live inside and rarely make any appearances." He explained as he watched her expression grow even more fascinated. 'i think they are purposely trying to make us think that they are extinct. So that we won't bother going inside the Forrest or bother finding them."

"Do you know that they are of different colours?"

"Wolves are?!" She whispered back. They had different colours? 

He nodded. "Auburn, sliver, white, grey and black. Even more, I think." He wiggled his brows. "Do your want to go and see?"

Adaline was truly in treat about the whole situation and she wanted to see the wolves for herself. This might be a Discovery that could change her world forever. Wolves that too in a town like this? She always thought that's he would find them somewhere in Siberia or even Antarctica. This was news and music to her ears! 

But there was also another fact that scared her more. Wolves were not the creatures to play around with. They were scary and attacked the instant if poked. Also, a wolf's nose was a thousand times better than humans and they could probably sense Adeline step into the forest.

So all in all it would be a death sentence that she would be getting herself into. 

She had no wish to die for a moment of fun.

"Not really," she shook her head. "Wolves are dangerous creatures and I have no ways to die tonight. What makes you think that we would even be able to enter their territory before they come out to kill us?"

He tsked. "You think I want to kill you?" He shook his head and stared at her. "There is something that can make them not smell us." He suggested. 

Adeline blinked and scoffed. "If you want me to believe that, then you can leave. I'm not stupid." She scoffed at that. What kind of person did he take her for? First of all, he wanted her to believe that their werewolves in a forest when humans went in and out frequently me and none of them have shaved one. Then he wanted her to believe that there was something that could mask their smell from them. 

This one seriously must have considered being an idiot which she was not. 

She looked at only for him to hiss and jump through the fence making Adeline stand up. Her heart had picked up the pace she saw him coming closer to her which an expression that she knew was not good. 

"What are you doing?" She frowned looking at him standing on her property without permission. "You need to go back." She stated as firmly she could. She wanted him away from her now. 

"I will." He smiled and his teeth flashed to her making her see his abnormally large teeth. "But you need to come with me."

Her frown grew even more evident. "No, I won't. I don't want to die too. . . ." Her words died as she stared into his eyes where the pupils dilated more and she found herself in a trance. Her body once again gave up the control. 

"Adeline, I want you to come with me." He said again and stared into her eyes. "You will follow me." His words were embedded in her mind and she was ready to follow through. 

She nodded. It seemed like she wasn't provided with any other option.

"Come now," he took her hand and she followed home without a word. She wanted to rebel but her soul wasn't listening. It wanted to follow the man, to where he led her. There was no stopping her.

In a flash, he was behind her and she couldn't even react to it. Her body listened to him. He didn't want her to flinch, so she didn't.

It was scaring her but she was trapped inside her mind. It was like a whole room was there but she was just stuck in a corner and unable to move. She wanted to get out and take the reins but something pulled her back down no matter how hard she tried. 

He held her shoulders and they walked deeper into the forest and the light from the houses now seemed far away. She wanted to reach out and follow it but he didn't allow it. Her body just moved forward. 

"You know, people like you don't listen well." He commented and her fear picked up even more. 

Excuse me? She wanted to say but her mouth remained shut. It was sealed but without the thread and the needle.

"I had tried with the others but unfortunately, it had come to the point where they could no longer take it without dying. Stupid bitches belong to the dogs!" He hissed and her heart rate picked up even more. His voice was almost demonic with whispers and underlying tones. "I hate it that their transition never takes anyone's life and us almost bring the other to the brink of death!" His grip tightened on her shoulders but she couldn't protest even when she tried to cry out. 

The hell was this boy talking about?

She was scared.

"I just need a little bit of your help," he whispered in her ear making her body shiver and discuss the closeness they had. "Don't worry, since you are not marked maybe you could survive it."
