Mates But Enemies

Chapter 1: Enchanted

Nadia's POV

I hadn't necessarily had it good in my life, I never wanted to mess with the wrong attachments but fate

it's own say in my life. One night stand and pop, a son appeared, I intended to make a relationship out

of it but I didn't know if it was natural or intentional. He just couldn't stick to one person or should I say

being?

I let him go even suffering a heartbreak from it but it wasn't over. Those bastards wouldn't just let me

be.

After a stressful night at the office, I decided to go for a ride to release some steam. Even though I

used to work on weekends, I had decided against that for sometime.

I drove my Camry through town and listened to music as I sung along. I was a few miles from my

house when I noticed that a car was following me and it took every turn I did.

I wasn't bothered the least because I thought I was armed until I checked to see it was nowhere to be

found.

“Damn you Dad, now I am in trouble ” I cursed.

I started speeding up and it followed right behind me, I thought I was on my way home until I saw that I

was rather on the highway.

‘Shit, who could this be? is this a robbery? are they going to eventually kill me?’ I thought as I kept on

speeding.

Then I saw I had completely lost my way so I took my phone and quickly sent my location to the police.

Since I was watching my way, I looked up to see a truck right in front of me and I was running into it in

a few meters away. So I hurriedly stepped on the brakes and turned the wheel in my left direction but it

was a huge mistake. I ran straight into the woods and hit a tree directly in front of me, my head crashed

with the wheel and as a result blood started dripping down my head. Injured and in pain, I opened the

door and it opened, I thanked my stars I wasn't locked up and got out if it slowly.

I looked on the road to find the car that was chasing me stop with the truck too. A man stepped out of

the car with a gun in his hands and I made a ran for it, it wasn't that I couldn't defend myself but I knew

with guns and me defend less, I couldn't have too much luck.

A few minutes later, I stopped to check my surrounding to find myself nowhere, fear and frustration ran

wild in my body. And my shirt stained with so much blood, I was pleased I was in jeans and sneakers

otherwise I wouldn't know how I could manage to so far.

Then suddenly I heard howls coming from where the moon was the brightest and footsteps coming my

way. I wondered how they could trace me so easily in the forest but that was far from the problem at

hand, they were getting closer and I needed to do something.

I didn't know which way to go at that point, to the animals howling or to the people coming my way, the

most dangerous among them I didn't know. So I took to the darkest part and took a wood in my hand. I

hid behind a tree ready to attack anything that came my way. I heard one loud howl and everything

went silent, I didn't know what was happening then.

Soon I heard human cries and growls.

‘What is going in there?’ I wondered.

A few minutes later, and everything went silent again, then I heard a small growl right beside the tree I

was hiding. I got up silently and quickly peeked at the back if the tree to find, bodies on the ground, as

to whether they were alive or not I didn't know. I got back into hiding shaking in fear, the animal growled

louder and I almost pissed on myself. So I got up once again and mastered all my strength in the wood

I was holding.

The animal's head popped slightly in front of me and I jumped and stricken him as hard as I could and

made a ran for it in the direction I had come from. I heard the animal howl again and I turned to look at

it to find the most brightest green eyes I've ever seen.

I watched it for a few seconds and saw it limp forward and I knew I had injured his left leg. I ran again

with determination and saw flashlights coming my way so I hid behind another tree. I peeked at them to

find out they were actually the police. They led me out of the forest but then those bloodshot brightest

green eyes were not leaving my sight.

I was enchanted by those eyes.
