Chosen By The Moon

Chapter 34

I heard my moms voice screaming at me and turned my head quickly only to be tackled to the floor by two men. The gun flew out of my hand, as I hit the floor with my stomach.

The men’s eyes were black as night as I turned onto my back, while one of them aimed their claws at my neck.

“WAIT!” Silence hit the street as a high ranking wolf walked up to where I was being held. “She’s just a child, she can be taught our ways!” I was lifted up onto my feet while the wolf man walked closer and closer to me. “Take her to the square, she still fought back and so She will take the first punishment.” As soon as those words left his mouth I was lifted and dragged to the square, kicking and screaming as I went. The humans of the town were gathered and I was roughly tied to two posts.

“Humans, welcome to the new world! Before the rules are recited, punishment must be given. 20 lashings will be given to the girl, as an example to you all.” Before I could wrap my head around what was going on, my top was torn off my body leaving me in just my training bra and I felt a large bolt of pain burn on my back, I went to scream out but bit my lip hard instead. I will do whatever it takes not to show weakness to those beasts.

So unlike most 12 year olds I kept quiet, I took my punishment that day without so much as a cry leaving my mouth, I also vowed that i Dylan Riley would never ever back down to a wolf. I would stay strong for my family, and I wouldn’t ever forget what the world was like before the lycans.
