The Lycan Kings Witch Beneath the Crimson Moon

Anastasia's POV

The wind blew my hair in all directions as I ran as fast as I could from my captors. I only had a few minutes to get over the barrier before they could track my scent again. If it hadn't been for that cocky meathead guard, I don't think I would have ever escaped. Who knew challenging him to an arm wrestling match would work in my favor?

My heart was racing in my chest and my lungs were burning. My legs felt weak and brittle, but I couldn't stop running. I had to make it. If I stayed here any longer, I knew I wouldn't survive another day. The trees broke and the barrier was in clear view now. Just when I thought I would finally be free, a howl sounded in the distance and more howls joined in. He must have noticed I was gone. I push my legs to run even faster.

I couldn't let him catch me. Not again. My coven and I were a peaceful bunch. We keep to ourselves and would help others if they needed. There was a time when we were able to mingle freely between the humans and the wolves until unexplained deaths began to surface.

The wolves didn't mind at first because it was only humans. That was until wolves began to turn up dead as well. Witches were blamed automatically, of course. We thought that we could continue to ignore the war between the witches and the wolves.

We chose to stay out of it, but the wolves didn't care if you participated or not. They only knew hate. Our coven remained visible to the outside world until the year I turned 10. We were attacked, losing many of our people, including my parents. That's when our High Priestess decided that it was safest to cloak our coven.

Had I stayed within the boarders of my coven, I wouldn't have come in contact with the Silver Moon pack. I had only ventured a few feet south of the boarder when he caught me.

He held me captive for two years! Two years his entire pack abused me in ways unimaginable. For two years I was forced to do his bidding. I was a green witch. I followed specific laws with my magic, but for the past two years, I had no choice but to forget those laws. My magic was ment to heal, not hurt but I had no choice.
