บท 7: The Escape

I was hanging by a thread by this point. All I could see was blood. My dress was even more torn. I was bleeding from different parts of my body. I struggled to stand from the loss of blood.

Lucas laughed at the sight in front of him. I could hear genuine happiness from the way he sounded and soon enough, Mia's laugh joined in. She had also come to watch my demise.

The wolves were vicious, angry and I was the perfect prey for them. They rounded me again and one of them lunged for me and I dodged it but another one jumped on me from behind and its teeth sunk into my arm.

I screamed in pain and I tried to shake it off. I raised the sharp branch I was holding and stuck it in its side. It let out a loud welp and jumped off me, tearing off some skin in the process.

I winced in pain as I backed off from them.

I couldn't hold up much longer but it was hard to just give up. I needed to live up to my father's mantra.
