Chapter 5 A Promise

"Arhhhh oh by the gods you feral monster. You beast!" My fur was drenched in blood. I took another bite from Osborne's legs as he screamed in pain. His flesh and bone went down my throat with ease. It wasn't disgusting, it surely wasn't. Such a vile, gruesome and abominable act.

I knew it was wrong. Every chew screamed abomination and yet it was divine. It was unlike the meat I normally ate. The scent of flesh and blood satisfied me beyond all bounds.

He continued screaming while plucked out his fingers one by one. I shredded the fleshy muscles of his hands and mashed them under the rage of my teeth. Osborne had stopped crying now he seemed to be dying as he looked at me still in a confused manner. He still couldn't comprehend all that had happened.

Speaking in werewolf form was difficult for werewolves but it wasn't impossible. "Maybe in your next life you won't take advantage of a lady ever again." These were the last words I said to him before my jaws sank into his neck, ending him in the process.

I didn't stop. Of course I couldn't. The taste and each bite I took made me addicted. Before I could tell what was happening I was done eating what remained of his guts.

I felt stronger, more powerful than ever. I turned to look at Baldur's dead corpse on the floor. Werewolves consumed meat twice their size so it wasn't really any issue for me to chew and gulp down his corpse in seconds.

Turning back to my human self I ran out of the warehouse, I had to be back home as soon as possible. I had left the farm to reach the main road. I felt so lost as I walked back home. My clothes were torn so I covered my body with a robe I found lying in one of the rooms. I took a lot of elixirs that day which I felt would be useful.

Twenty minutes had passed already and I could feel my frustration brewing from not seeing familiar buildings yet. All my life I had lived in Nevada. So it was safe to say that I was lost.

I noticed a jet black car slowly following me. I turned back to see it clearly. It was a classic 1969 Dodge Charger, the vehicle had this ominous feel to it. It wasn't everyday one saw such an exotic vehicle especially in a country like Bulgaria. The model was old but it was still ridiculously expensive. The last time I saw such luxury was on television.

I had to be careful. Maybe it was the client the two brothers were expecting that was hunting me down. The car drove nearer. The occupant rolled down the window asking me a question.

"Are you lost?" The voice asked firmly with a hint of worry. His lush white hair floated at his back, I remember how chiseled his cheekbones looked. He had no smile on his face, it was like he carried the weight of the world on his shoulder.

He looked to be in his late twenties but I wasn't so sure because werewolves aged slowly after thirty. I could tell from his green emerald gaze that he had good intentions. I was hypnotized by his scent. He smelt of honey and vanilla each second was gold as I starred shamelessly at the handsome stud in front of me. His nose was sculpted with care and perfection.

"Miss, I'm talking to you. Do you wanna get in?"

I was embarrassed now as I snapped out of my little trance. He didn't even acknowledge the fact that I admired him. He must be a pompous man then.

"No thank you, I'll be fine on my own." I replied.

"I promise I just want to help." Looking back at him, I opened the door without second thoughts and got into the car. It just felt right. "I was abducted, but don't worry about that. I dealt with them. I live in Nevada, but I don't know where I am now." He had a much deeper look of worry for me now, and it made feel more safe.

"I'm deeply sorry to hear that. Bulgaria is known for its dangers. I am Ser Alexander."

"Okay. Thank you for offering your help Ser Alexander, I'm Elsa."

"It's a beautiful name and by the gods I'm happy you're safe." He said his lips curving into a little smile for the first time. He looked more dashing now while smiling, his facial side beard sat perfectly on his face with effortless precision. A man's hair is truly his own makeup.

"We are currently in Hamilton, a neighboring state to Bulgaria."

"Take me back to Nevada, I'll direct you where to stop. My dad must be searching the whole place for me."

"That's nice he must really love you a lot." He answered his frown returning to his face once more.

"Why do you sound that way, did you loose your dad?"

"I wish it were that. Maybe things would have been better for me but he is very much alive, hail and hearthy."

"It seems you've daddy issues."

"I didn't take you to be rude Elsa."

"I'm sorry Alexander it's just when you've been through all I went through today... a lot of things just seem rather petty." I answered almost in a whisper.

"Trust me it's deeper than it seems."

"Can i trust you Alexander?" I asked with a crack in my tone. His eyes were fixed intensely on me for a second.

"Yes, as crazy as that sounds, you can trust me. A total stranger."

"I know it sounds insane and we just met, but I feel I can really trust you."

"Well then, you must always trust your guts and ofcourse the gods."

"Do you believe our meeting was already fated?" I asked.

"I believe everything happens for a reason Elsa." His answer satisfied me for some reason. I narrated every event that took place today. His face portrayed different emotions as I spoke, from surprise, to anger from anger to disgust then surprise again.

"Elsa your story is quite unique but I think you shouldn't go around just saying this to anybody. That would be dangerous."

"I know that Alex. What I just told you is a secret I don't plan on telling even my parents. I feel I can trust you Alex."

"Your secret is safe elsa. I don't really have a lot of friends to share it with even if I wanted to." He said with an alluring smile. We had reached the store were I was abducted. I directed Alex to my home and he stopped a few blocks away.

"Elsa, please take my card and reach out to me whenever you feel the need to."

"Sure Alex, and thank you for saving me from a possible abduction again." I said causing a stifled chuckling expression from him.

"I believe our paths will cross again alex till then take care." I knew I wouldn't be reaching out to him anytime soon. That's why I told him to stop a few blocks away from my home so he wouldn't know it or come looking for me. I had a lot to figure out and I didn't want to drag him into my mess."

Stepping out of the car, I watched as he turned and left.

"Elsa, what are you still doing in bed? Do you even know what time it is?"
