My hands were still a little bit shaky as I held the knife to Percy's neck.
That f*****g bastard f*****g knocked me out and kidnaped me.
My whole body still buzzing from the drug.
Shit, he used something strong, because there is no way that a simple s**t would make me feel this way.
Bastard.
"First, lower the knife, before you hurt yourself or make me cause an accident and kill us both."
How much I hate his slow, calm tone. I have a knife against his neck and he stays calm.
FUCK HIM.
I know that he is right, because there is no way that I could kill or cut him, without killing myself in the process. And my hands were shaking so badly that I probably would just nick him even if I tried.
So I slowly lowered the knife to my lap and met his gaze.
"Good. Now this is better."
"Where are we going?"
I tried to keep my voice as steady as possible, but I could feel it shaking just as badly as my arm.
"Well, we are going home, just as I said before."
I stared at him, refusing to believe what I had just heard.
Home...
To his pack...
To my pack.
FUCK.
I haven't since... since he bit me.
I can still remember that feeling of my blood dripping down my neck as I ran out of there. Pain ripped my chest into pieces...

Three years ago
Percy invited me to meet him at his place.
It will be the first time that I will be at his house.
He was so nervous as he brought me flowers and asked me to meet him at his place. I was nervous at first, because the full moon is tonight.
For the last three I have been pretending that I am attending some family business, but that was a lie. I was running with Emanuel.
I have thought about it for a while now and I know that we love each other. Hiding my true self from him has been so hard.
Especially when he is open with me about everything, about his family, his problems with his mother and not knowing who his father was. Building his life from scratch. Without the help of anyone, he made a life for himself on his own.
He built a company and a successful one.
Goddess how much I admire this man.
I am scared to tell him the truth, but something inside me tells me that he will accept me no matter what.
Emanuel made me promise that if he reacted badly I would call him and he would fix everything.
I know that he meant to kill him, because we can never tell humans our secrets and what I am about to do is very risky, but... but I know that I can trust Percy.
I stepped out of a taxi in front of Percy's house and almost fell on my ass. I stared at it with my mouth open.
It was magnificent.
When you read a fairy tail and they describe a castle, this is what I imagined.
So I guess this makes Percy my prince charming...
With a big smile on my face, I walked to the front door and ran to the door and rang the bell.
Percy opened the door in a few moments and pulled me into his arms.
His huge frame fitted so perfectly around mine. He made me feel safe for the first time since I was a child.
As he was holding me in his arms I almost started to cry, but I pushed those emotions down. There will be time for that latter, now I have a more important task to finish.
"Hi."
He whispered to the side of my neck where he buried his face.
"Hi."
For some reason my "hi" was barely hearable, but I was sure that he heard me.
We stood like that for a few more moments. Enjoying the warmth we provided for each other.
He was the first one to step back a little.
"Did you find the house easily?"
"Yeah, your directions helped. The taxi driver was a bit confused when I first gave him the address."
The smile on his face was so broad and so genuine, that I could feel love and happiness grip my chest.
Goddess how much I love this man.
"Good, do you want to freshen up before dinner?"
"Yes, that would be great."
To freshen up and to release the speech I prepared.
"Great, then follow me."
He led me to a small bathroom on the first floor.
The moment the doors closed behind me, I gripped the counter and tried to regain control.
The full moon wasn't helping me with my nerves. It made me feel even more on the edge, if that is even possible.
I stared at myself in the mirror, seeing how red my cheeks were from the cold autumn wind. I could see my wolf in my eyes, she was close, really close. I still had a few hours before I had to turn, so it gave me a bit of time to prepare Percy for it.
My wolf has wanted to meet him for months now.
She has taken a liking to him since the moment we met. And I take it as a good sign.
I could feel how desperate she was to show herself to him and I could only hope that he would accept us, because if not...
I don't want to think about what would happen then.
I took one last deep breath and washed my hands.
Percy will come looking for me if I spend any more time hiding here.
I checked myself out one last time and left the comfort of the tiny bathroom and walked in the direction he pointed in before.
I found the kitchen first and stared at him, finishing the last complex-looking dish, with a goofy smile on my face.
Okay... here goes nothing....
