Hannah swallowed hard and pushed Kai slightly away from her so that she could hop back down to the floor. She smoothed down her t-shirt with nervous hands even as another booming sound came the living room door.
"When you say trouble do you mean what I think you mean?" She asked shakily, her hazel eyes looking anywhere but at him as she winced from yet another attack on her eardrums from the 'trouble' outside.
Kai speared her with an irritated glance and Hannah stiffened her spine. "It's a reasonable question." She hissed, wondering why the hell she had been kissing him a few seconds ago. The guy really was an asshole. "Well?" She demanded when there was no sign that he was planning to answer her question.
"Stay here." He ordered, this time not even looking her way before heading out to the living room.
Panic gripped her fast and hard and she ran after him as another BANG rocked her door. She ran ahead of him and slapped a hand on the it, blocking his way.
"Are you insane?" She asked, her tone disbelieving. "What is out there doesn't sound pretty and you were shot in case you don't remember, you haven't even been to a hospital or a vet or whatever, all you did was tape up your chest after cleaning up the wounds!"
He didn't answer her, instead he gripped her arms and just lifted her off her feet as if she weighed nothing and then plonked her down far away from the door.
"Do not leave the house, do you understand? No matter what, don't you dare put one foot outside." Then before she could utter another word, he moved in a way that made her sight blur, so that the door slammed closed when it should have been opening and he was gone. It was as if the very air stilled...everything seemed frozen in time as she stared, her mouth gaping open as her wide hazel eyes remained focused on the closed door. And then she heard it... growls... lots of them... as if a pack of wolves were fighting outside her door.
Her face paled as the thought really registered. He was fighting whoever was outside!!! The man was really stupid, now it really was confirmed. Rolling her eyes heavenwards she mentally went through everything inside her house that could be used as a weapon... knife... scissors... She really wasn't cut out for this sort of thing, those were the only two weapons she had... well they weren't weapons but in this instant...
Gritting her teeth she hurried into the kitchen and as she went to pull out the big butcher knife she heard a dull but heavy thud against her door and her heart tightened, her hand froze on the handle of the knife. Kai. That could be Kai. She ran as fast as she could and completely ignoring his stupid suicidal induced order for her to stay inside, she flung open the door and was literately frozen to the spot as the arctic winds of the snow storm cut into her.
"Kai!!!" She managed to shout, her eyes straining to catch a glimpse of anything she could in the heavy and vicious fall of snow. "Kai!" A handful of cold air forced itself down her throat almost freezing her vocal cords and she strained her eyes harder, looking all around her as she felt her feet sink into the snow. Damn she was as suicidal as he was!!! Coming out into a snow storm in a t-shirt and jeans. She opened her mouth to scream for him again when a flash of red on the snow caught her eye.
Feeling her t-shirt plastering to her body she bent to look at it... saw that there was an alarming amount of it... Hannah gasped. Blood! In her haste to get away she stumbled and fell back on the snow - the knife falling from her grasp. "Oh God." She uttered the words just as a growl came from behind her. She barely had time to turn before she was slammed back onto the snow, a searing pain tearing through her left shoulder so suddenly that the scream that was ripped from her left her throat raw.
Her eyes focused to see gleaming teeth dripping with saliva, foul breath streaming from the open jaw of the fearsome wolf that stood on her chest keeping her pinned to the snow. The animal weighed a ton. She caught a glimpse of obsidian eyes and knew that this was not Kai in wolf form. The wolf, seemed to snicker down at her, snapping it's powerful jaws right beside her ear, making it ring as the vicious teeth almost chopped her ear off. But then, just as the wolf geared up to go for the fatal blow - a grey bullet shot out of the fog of snow and caught the wolf on top of her around the neck with unbreakable grip of his teeth, sending them both rolling on the snow... and Hannah through the haze of fear in her mind still managed to gape in astonishment as in mid-turn both animals shifted into solid bodies of man...
His long black hair flaring around his shoulders as he snapped his head round to look at her, Kai pierced her with electric blue eyes as he wrestled the similarly built man down to the snow. "Get inside now!!!" he shouted, struggling to keep the man down.
Not needing to be told a second time Hannah got clumsily to her feet and ran inside the cabin, slamming the door shut as she did so. She was shaking violently now, from the cold yes... but there was something wrong, something that had nothing to do with being exposed to a snow storm. It was as if there was a consuming fire spreading over skin, making every place on her body tingle.
Oh God what now? As if in answer to her anguished thought, an intense sheet of fire swept over her body and sent her to her knees with a groan. What is this? She wanted to scream the question as she curled into a ball on the floor, clutching her middle as flash after flash of heat consumed her.
The door opened and she heard metal clatter to the wooden floor of the cabin, but she was so consumed by what was happening in her body that she didn't even think to check if it was Kai who had just walked into her cabin.
"Next time do as you're told!" Definitely Kai. "Oh and by the way thanks for handing him a knife, what did you want him to do? Dice me up?"
The best response that she could come up with was another groan as she jerked on the floor. That seemed to get his attention.
"Hannah?" His voice was carefully blank.
Stupid man, couldn't he see she was in pain? How was she supposed to answer him when it was too bloody painful to speak!
Suddenly his now blood covered jeans were in her line of vision as he knelt beside her. "Hannah, what's wrong?"
"I... don't... know." She manage to force out between teeth gritted with the intense pain. Then she felt freezing hands on her now burning skin turning her on her back, and heard his low gasp.
