Thread: The Hunt {PatientOne & Enigma_x}

Nat Natalia had barely gathered her breath when she felt a sharp pain ripple through her scalp. A low growl rumbled from within her as she noticed the napkin drift past her face. His words were infuriating. How dare he. Of course, she understood why, but he had no idea how his actions had broken her world apart. Her father was her world her family was everything to her. His actions had made it impossible for her to see them, not even once. They couldnt know she was alive and that very fact was killing her. Whenever her rage subsided, the pain was overwhelming. It was easier to be furious, to be driven. The truth was so much more painful. The moment she had the Alpha alone, she would end this all. No more rage, no more anger. Slowly, she began to rise to her feet. The pain that tore through her body was incredible. As a wolf, she could endure far more pain than she expected. If shed been human, shed no doubt have gone into shock. Not now. Gradually, she made her way home. The she wolf made a stop into a herbalist shop on her way. An old hunter recipe shed received from her father was a good tool to boost her immune system and promote healing. Hopefully itd help her ease some of the pain she was feeling. By the time she got home, the pain was almost unbearable. After the healing tonic was made, Natalia drank it and began patching up what wounds she could. Next, she applied some ice and anti-inflammatory cream. She appeared just as one would expect after a beating swollen, bruised and clearly in a good deal of pain. A soft sigh departed from her body as she curled up onto the make shift bed in a cold, dark house. Sleep wouldnt be easy, but she needed to take as much as she could. If she was even going to face the pack, Natalia needed to know she could still throw a punch without wincing. Over the next few days, Natalia was healing well. There were still aches and pains but a lot of bruising had gone down, the only real pain remained with her broken ribs that were attempting to heal. Still, her face looked considerably better. The woman chose her usual tight fitting jeans along with a well fitted v neck shirt. Her trusty jacket and boots remained the same, the blood cleaned from them of course. Despite her disdain for the Alpha, the woman couldnt help but feel a pull toward him. It had been difficult to fight the urge to go to the pack house sooner. It was beyond infuriating. The she wolf didnt have a mode of transport, she simply caught a cab to the street. As she stepped from the cab, Natalia almost fell backward. The house was A mansion. How the hell did they get so rich? As if she couldnt have felt anymore awkward. Since it was the Alphas intention, Natalia did her best to set herself at ease. The moment she approached the gates she immediately smelled the two guards. Wolves. Im the pup, The female spat coldly, her gaze meeting theirs. Her posture was straight and confident, despite the pain seeping into her right side. I was asked here, so step aside or call your master. Her gaze never left the pair, it simply hardened as she waited for them to contact the Alpha. The blonde crossed her arms over her chest, a rather defensive stance as she began to gaze through the gates. It looked incredible. However, that wasnt the point. She shouldnt enjoy it this wasnt her life. Her life was destined to be wiped out, and it would be once she got close enough to take the beast of a man with her. Something within her stirred another part of her couldnt help but want to see him, crave to see him, to smell him. It made the huntress sick, the she wolf in her craved something Natalia would never allow. This all had to end before her inner wolf managed to take hold.
