Chapter 2

Lisa Pov:

My eyes slowly blinked open as I tried to take in my surroundings after waking up from a deep, long dreamless sleep, feeling better after yesterday’s stress.

The room looked pretty decent, and the window reflecting the sun rays showed the beautiful scenery of the environment. I was lying on a queen-size bed with a dresser, two side tables, a large mirror opposite the bed, and a door leading to a small ensuite. It smells like fresh citrus; it seems like it has just been washed and cleaned.

I swiftly took a few steps towards the large window when a light knock on the door brought my attention back from wondering. “Good evening, my dear, you are finally awake. Looking at the woman blankly, I remembered that she was the werewolf that approached me before I lost consciousness. From the strawberry scent and the change of clothes I had on, I am guessing she must have cleaned me up.

I’m Gina, the former Luna of the Crosswood Pack. I brought you home because I couldn’t leave you there in the cold." She said,

I timidly said, ‘‘Thank you, my lady.''

Noticing I was in no mood for conversation, Gina smiled, Your dinner will be brought to you soon; hopefully we can chat some other time." With that, she left. I sat on my bed, and after about 5 minutes, dinner was served by an old lady, whose name is written on the tag she wore; her name is Marta. Lady Gina will come by to see you after your meal. She said,

After eating, I laid in bed just wondering around my thought, “What will be my next move?” It all depends on my conversation with Lady Gina. Shortly after, Lady Gina came to see me, as she said.

“Hello dear, how are you doing?" She settled herself on the bed close to me, then stretched her hands with tablets towards me. Take this pain reliever; it will help heal your wound faster." Nodding my head, I collected the medicine and used the glass of water on the side table beside me to drink and push it down my throat.

She smiles at me before asking, “Who are you? And what are you doing in that abandoned building?”

“I am Lisa Giovanni Albert. I was trying to rest a little before you found me." “From the smell you gave off, I could tell you just recently became a rouge; even though the building I found you in was abandoned, you trespassed.”

Trying to keep my timid voice calm, I responded, “I’m really sorry; it wasn’t intentional; I was... as... sure you.” I stuttered. Bowing my head towards her as a sign of respect.

“No ... .no do that. I don’t need to scare you. You are lucky it wasn’t someone else that found you; the outcome could have been different." She stated.

Looking over at me, searching for any sign of fear, after confirming I was comfortable and now relaxed, she went further to ask, “Why did you become a rogue, dear?"

“I was kicked out of my family and pack. Tears run down my cheeks at the thought, and my lungs begin to burn from a lack of oxygen as I choke.

"Calm down, sweetheart; breathe in and out.I followed her instructions. After my breathing was back to normal, “do you still want to talk about it?" She said I nodded.

“I was in that abandoned building as the rain became very heavy and unbearable for me to keep moving, so I settled there while waiting for the rain to stop." I looked down on my fidgeting fingers while trying to keep my breathing at a calm pace. Gina came closer, soothing in an embrace.

After I calmed down, Gina helped put me in bed, covered me with the blanket, and kissed my temple to sleep.

Before leaving the room, she turned back and said, “Tomorrow I will inform my son the Alpha about you and request for you to be a member of our pack.” With that, she smiled and collected the glass on the side table and shut the door after her.
