Howl at me by Cama Seeney (best non fiction books to read txt) 📕

the music hypnotically. Suddenly I was wrenched around, pulled to face another direction. By hands I had once thought were soft but now not so. I turned and faced the man who I immediately called my best friend. 'So stupid' He muttered pulling me roughly away from the guy I had been dancing with....

 

 

And the big fight

 

Chapter 23 

 

'What do you want Nel?' I spluttered more than slightly annoyed, my feet wobbly and unstable on the ground. I felt like I had some kind of net wavering and intertwining around my brain and skull ... was that even correct? I didn't even know my head hurt. Nelson too was feeling the affects of the alcohol he had previously drunken, you could see it in the very way he walked. Well and that he stunk of alcohol, although that could have been me.. But I hadn't drank much. 

 

'I thought you were grown up! Not drinking yourself silly and going off with the first guy that looks your way! How could you be so stupid, how would you know you've never even been with a man!' He ground out angrily. He looked like he wanted to hit something, I hated it when he became angry. He would start to become the very man that he strived not to be. His anger was so strong I could almost taste it. I had seem him angry before but never this much and certainly never at me... 

 

The music that had once surrounded me in energy now felt toxic and dangerous. My head screamed something was wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. 'Ffor-for your information Nelson green' I hiccuped not helping prove my innocence. 'I had four shots and a sip of beer! It' is not me who is the drunk. I am no innocent Nelson, stop being controlling you're not my mother!' I shouted at him so he could hear me over the music. He visibly blanched and took a step back looking like he wanted to slap me, I knew he would never raise his hand to me but I could help but being petrified. 

 

He lifted a hand, maybe to hit me. But more likely to move the strand of hair obscuring my face. 'Max you are so behind on life! It's unreal. You're a child, sometimes it amazes me you can do simple things a person your age can. Look just let me drive you home.' He pleaded but the damage had already been done. His eyes were glassy like he didn't even realise he was still talking to me. I was no child and I could find my own damn way home. 'Take your self home, get off of whatever high your on and leave me dam well alone. You immature, inconsiderate asshat.' I screamed in anger. He just laughed at me and patted my head. A gentle hand took  position on my shoulder 'Come on Max. He won't even remember this in the morning.' Chase said softly appearing at my side when I needed him most. I smiled half heartedly even as my heart broke in two. He thought I was a child. Why didn't people ever see me more than cute or broken! 

 

I looked at the man ahead of me who had undergone pain under the same extreme condition as I had. I took his calloused hand in my smaller one. Walking a little wobbly into the forest. 'D-d-d-o we have to swim back to s-s-s-hore?' I asked as shivers racked my body. 'Na. We can go through the forest. Well if you don't pass out or fall over first.' He chuckled and took off the burgundy blazer he wore and rapped it around my shoulders, his arm soon followed suit; resting across my waist. 'B-b-b-uhht you'll be a.a.a.achew!' I muttered a sneeze breaking my sentence, as the anger fled from my body, weariness and intoxication played double time with my confused mind. 'Um. I think I'll be fine.' He said chuckling gently.

 

'I-i-i-i Think m-m-my drink. Spiked.' I tried to explain but my mind was too muddled. Hehe like a mud pie. Mud pies are funny things. You can't eat them cause there made from mud. 'Hmm. Maybe. What are you thinking about kitty?' He asked peering into my face. Well at-least I think it was his face. All I could see was a flash of white. Maybe his eyes. More like his teeth. Ohh what big teeth you have my deer... 'Th-that it'z funny mud pies. Eaten. Can't' I'm pretty sure my response was muddled. The cold air seemed to make me even more drunker. As time passed I found it harder to even walk straight. Suddenly I blacked out.

 

They surrounded us, about ten of them. All in large cloaks that seemed to keep there hooded form from our view. They had fitted in just fine because of the fancy and  funky dressing going on but I could tell the men lurking in the forests were not here to party. All of a sudden I heard a raw of rage but I could no longer see what was happening. My head hurt to much. Something icky fell across my face. 

 

'City mark, just ahead'

 

'Three hours'

 

'She's coming too again' 

 

The lights seemed to flutter like the new born wings of a delicate bird. Refracted off of the car windows I could see we were in an garage. The people who carried Chase stopped at a Mercedes, don't ask me what make because even on a good day I wouldn't know. I couldn't scream or even speak. Graffiti seemed to cover every surface. Words seeming to come alive with my mind, they were small and insignificant. Leaving my mark behind I was dragged like a rag doll. 'HELP ME!' 'Stolen' 'Taken' 'Chase is with me!' 'Black car. mercs.. warehouse in north. heard own city... theyyy've city. city city. be there 3 ....3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3.' My magic for the first time seemed to fail me. Blood dripped from my head wound, obscuring my eyes. Confused thoughts filled me to the core, over whelmed me. Once again I was greeted with the peace that was darkness.

 

I woke in a room that seemed to have little light but much darkness. The walls riddled with mould and rust, all marking the white dull bricks. Tiles on the floors child me to the bone. If not for the slight sheet that seemed to cover me I would freeze. 'H-h-hell.' I Tried to shout, my broken voice failed me. It sounded so weak and pathetic in the monstrous room I was in. 'H-e-e-ll-o' I finally managed. But what I really meant was hell-hole. My voice as brittle as a hair.

 

I heard a quiet groan from across the room and rushed towards it, my mind still foggy and I was clumsy in the dark but never the less I was determined to make my way to Chase. I tripped over what must have been Chases foot because he groaned once again. I cuddled his warm form up to me and placed the blazer he had leant me under his head. Curled up against his side, I lay deadly awake. Just waiting for Chase to awake. Whispering 'Heal' Over and over again, soon though my energy depleted. Deserted me like everything else. 

 

The rude awakening

Chapter 24 

  

 'Wake up!' Something or more likely some one shoved me roughly. I fell onto the floor banging my head once again, painfully. The heat of chases body instantly gone. The cold atmosphere and the tiles bit into my very core; freezing even my bones. A light was force-ably shined in my face, black dots were left to dance across my vision. Stopping me from seeing the attacker from grabbing me once more. Ice cold thundered down around we. 'We are awake!' I screamed in anger, Chase who was suddenly right next to me covered me with his arms. 'Awh now don't do that wolf boy. She has such a lovely figure to see.' Came a snotty nosed, nasal sounding voice. A bandage was strapped across his nose and I couldn't help but grin. It probably came across distorted and crazy but in that moment I couldn't care less.  Aquaphobia, Aquaphobia, Aquaphobia. For a coupple of seconds I was actually scared of water.. 

 

'Don't dry yourself.' Chase murmured into my hair. What he wanted them to keep ogling me!? Ew no. I'm not going to stay wet, eventually I'd dry. Oh he means magically, I nodded almost impeccably. 'Don't do any M N M.' He put extra force in the first M. Magic? Damn how I wish I was telepathic sometimes. The dragged us apart and chained us on opposite ends of the walls. I held Chases unyielding eyes, if he was going to survive so would I. I had already under gone the worst torture from my family. What more could they do? 

 

So much more...

 

First came the questioning. 

'Why are you friends with a pack of wolves. They are monsters. You are a disgrace to man kind for merging and uniting with them' 

'No one will save you now'

'WHERE DO THEY LIVE?' 

'How many are there?'

 

Question after question. Taunting voice after taunting voice. I answered voice like steel They already had me pinned right. 'Cause there just so darn pretty and you smell just so god damn bad.' I was struck across the face and blood dribbled from my mouth. Sticking in my gums and parched lips. 'Hmm if I say there with  your mother is that an inappropriate response.' This time the hit was to the belly. I was determined not to make a noise. Eyes steady on Chase as he howled and growled at my pain. 'Umm could be sixty six. But Its probably more one thousand one hundred and three. No wait I change my response!! There's one.' They all seemed to get closer to me, all held their breaths. 'It's the monster standing right before me.' I told him snarly. This time i was hit in the stomach again. I gasped for air but never took my gaze from Chase. He was my rock. I seemed to gain power from him. I muttered the fear of pain under my breath again and again like a little chan. 

 

Algophobia, Algophobia, Algophobia, Algophobia. 

 

He smiled at me only a little but it was enough for me to endure anything they would throw my way. If we didn't and spilt all of his secrets then we wouldn't be alive for long. I hummed softly to myself and then began singing, it was a song about summer and the long days and short nights to come. Sandy beaches and skinny dipping in the madness.

 

 

The room was heaved in silence as the last
