Chapter Escape Through this Hole

Faye's Point of View.

Yelling, punching, loud banging— side to side— I've been bombarded. I was almost about to pass out because of the fact that I couldn't take all of this shit anymore. It was all nonsense to continue interfering and asking not to fight if their own gut is what will they act upon. No words will ever gonna change their mindset. It's like having to ask someone for an explanation when you've already judged them in your head. Ugh, sucked these two.

Giving up, I sat at the edge of the bed, opened the top layer of the drawer beside the bed, took out pringles, eat it simply. I acted as if nothing was happening in front of me. That will just give me much more things to think about if I do bother about it.

I'm not finishing half of the pringles, and silence rumbled to my ears. Ouch, I almost ruin my eardrums. The silence is too loud to even handle, so I need to break it.

"What?" I asked, crunching the pringles inside my mouth, and I don't even know why I did that.

"What is this? Why are you eating?" asked Damion.

"Am I not allowed to do EVEN this, Damion? For goodness sake," I replied annoyingly.

"In this situation, in case you got involved, did you know that you have to get in between?" asked Ralph.

"Hmm, and I'm choosing not to get involved. It's my own decision that matters in the end, anyway. Why bother stopping you to argue over petty things when it's actually funny and loving to just watch? You know, you guys are compatible. Maybe, you'll pass being in a relationship," I said, trying to hide the chortle struggling to come out of my mouth.

They both grip each other's collar, and now what I said bothers them, they instantly pushed themselves to get away from one another with furrowed brows. Damn, these two, they're funny. Now, I couldn't help myself laughing my lungs out. Even my hands are clapping hilariously. My jaws are getting ready to lock, but honestly, I couldn't help.

For a short moment of time, I forget my situation. Any minute, I could die. In just a snap of a finger, I could be dead meat— a lump of fresh dead meat. Gradually, these loud noises from clapping and laughing turned into tears. My eyes are now a faucet.

I've been hurt every day. But tears just won't visit since I lost my parents. All I feel is complete numbness. Despite knowing I felt pain at the back of my head, I couldn't feel anything. Well, maybe today's the D-day to get succumb to the pain I unconsciously avoid feeling.

My eyes were closed as my tears streamed down. When I open it, Damion and Ralph are looking at each other, cursing without sounds but I could still decipher.

"It's your fault she's crying! You're such a nuisance and always appear like a mushroom when it's my turn to show off!" Ralph silently roared with an action to complement the mood.

"Not to mention, I'm her mate? If she's crying, I am too. LOOK AT THESE EYES! FUCKING SHIT! I'm crying while cursing at you? See how embarrassing I appear in front of my enemy? Damn that Moon Goddess and you, you must be the one to take the blame," Damion replied. His voice is sometimes slipping out, but he managed to talk quietly. Damion was right, he was crying too. Cripes this is so ridiculous and incredibly hilarious!

Damion and Ralph jerked their head on me in sync and their face turned red. Now, they were looking away.

"Do you want to have some fun?" I asked, smiling.

3rd Point of View.

"Uhm, is it okay if—"

Jacob was cut short by the sudden spear that appeared before his eyes, which even wounded his cheeks. His reflexes are so fast, Lucy's now behind him.

"What is that?" Hunter whispered. His hands are now trembling. He even tried to calm it down using the other that is also trembling. How odd the situation he's in.

Jacob shushed him. They needed to be quiet to discern who did that. This part of the forest is difficult to reach. Something dark happened while traveling here, Jacob thought. Jacob was panting, as well as Lucy and Hunter. How will they escape this now? The spears continued to penetrate through the hole.

Jacob can't take this anymore.

"Lucy, go with Hunter and leave. Save our daughter. If not me, you will be," Jacob snarled.

"No," Lucy replied while the edge of her eyes formed water.

"No too, Lucy. We have to sacrifice," Jacob who was so down replied.

"Sacrifice doesn't always mean dying alone. You have me. What if it's not that dangerous outside?"

"Are you guys gonna continue your sweet and loving moments while the spears are right beside your faces?" Hunter asked in fright, but none of them ever heard him. Hunter was shivering too although it was not that cold.

"Let's go," Lucy murmured and pulled his hand. "There's a hole. Let's use that to escape."

She was successful to convince his husband to go and escape. But the intruders are born that way— to intrude— they came in to attack with one accord and one goal— to kill Lucy.

"When I was giving birth to Faye, Gora sees something inside Faye. Gora was my midwife, and she was scared to death when she saw Faye's face. I don't know what was that. Up until today, I have been left with no answers. If I ever die, please find all you could about this," Lucy said, hoping anyone, Hunter or Jacob, or at least one, hears her plead.

Faye's Point of View.

"Fun?" asked Ralph. "I like funny things, like you."

I rolled my eyes in cringes. Gosh, he's incredibly good at this kind of thing. Damion stood up before me and just simply glared at Ralph. Looking at his fist, it looks like he's ready to spare some time to have sparring with Ralph. It's like Damion loves wasting his time over petty things.

But really, when he's like this, he makes me blush and fluttered.

"I told you, not my mate," Damion threatened, making a fist.

Am I starting to — oh wait, I shall remove that toxic thought out of my head. This is just some sort of puberty hitting on me, that's all. Nothing more, nothing less.

Why would I even think about feeling romantically attached to Damion? He's shitty. He didn't deserve my cunning beauty. This face will end up with her mate? Nah, won't let it happen. I know how slut I can be with all the boys I like to have sex with, and it's kind of embarrassing to do it with Damion. He's too hot, I couldn't handle seducing him to do it with— WHAT? NOW I'M THINKING ABOUT HAVING SEX WITH HIM?!

"HEY!"

"Oh fucking great," I said, startled.

Two voices shouted at me while splashing their saliva. I couldn't even fathom where it was coming from, whether it was Damion or Ralph— jeez, both are disgusting.

"Why the shout?" I asked, rubbing my ear.

"You're preoccupied. What's bothering you?" asked Damion bluntly, in the long face.

"Enough with the questions. We need to go now. Do you want or you don't?" asked Ralph.

Squinting my eyes, slightly moving my head backward, I asked, " What's going on?"

He then explained about the hole behind the curtains positioned at the bottom of my bed. it was such a small hole, which I couldn't believe has the ability to suck me in. I didn't know where will this bring me to the other side of the hole, yet I need to take the risk or I will regret it forever.

"Does your Alpha King or whoever it is you're working for love any sort of underground doors?" I asked, squinting my eyes and making a disgusting face. Damion shushed me, widening his eyes to give me a 'shut up' look non-verbally. "What?" I peevishly said.

"God, could you trust me wholeheartedly, Damion?" asked Ralph.

Damion smirked, "Dude, don't give me orders."

"I'm asking, not demanding. Then we could move synchronically," Ralph replied.

I'm stuck watching them again. Instead of bugging to stop the two idiots, I went down the little hole Ralph was talking about, alone. It's too dark, I can't see anything. I closed my eyes to activate wolf eyes, and when I opened them, a slide surprised me. So it's differently structured, and kind of intelligent. Now, no one would bother to check what's after the slide out of fright not to go back upstairs.

Not me, though. There's a little thought lingering at the back of my head. Wild and poisonous animals must've been kept here. What if... what if—

"Aish, enough with the drama. Just slide down and feed your curiosity."

Who is that? I looked around. Damion and Ralph are still arguing. Ugh. pathetic guys always lose, so none of them lose 'cause both of them are pathetic.

"Damn, I'm your wolf! SLIDE, NOW!"

But you only appear when I'm sleeping?

"What do you call this now, then? I'm always here, just being quiet. As part of your developing personality, I'm always observing. It's like, I'm part of your characteristics, just being separated, now I acted like someone you could talk to. But it doesn't matter now. Just go, bye."

Poofed, now gone. My head hurts from rolling my eyes so many times today.

I slide down.

What welcomed me almost put me to death.
