Whatever it was, she didn’t want to be caught by it.
Just when she thought her legs would give out on her, the howling sounds in the background seemed to multiply. They were coming from all directions.
Amy how gotten so far ahead of her, Kaliah lost sight.
She was all alone and the monsters were closing in. Her heart beat so fast it felt as if it would burst from her chest.
“I didn’t come here to die,” she whispered to herself. “You have to keep moving.”
“Little rabbit…” A graveling voice called from beyond the trees.
What the entire fuck?”
The muscles in Kaliah’s legs screamed in agony but she pushed herself to go father.
“Little rabbit…I smell you.” Again that graveling voice echoed through the woods. It was a terrifying mixture of man and beast.
She glanced over her shoulder which proved to be a gross miscalculation because she tripped over a tree root and fell to the ground face first.
She always thought the women in movies were careless for falling down in the midst of a chase but now here she was on the ground. When she attempted to pull herself up, she cried out from the pain in her ankle.
Fuck. She wasn’t sure if it was twisted or broken but either way she couldn’t afford to stick around to nurse it.
“I hear you breathing, little rabbit…” The voice was eerily close.
Ignoring the pain, she hobbled as fast as she could. Tears coursed down her face. She grew nauseous because it hurt so much but her only thought was survival.
A hand fell on her shoulder and she released an ear splitting shriek.
“Kaliah! It’s me!”
She turned to see Amy.
“Amy! How did you get behind me?”
“I must have gone in a circle but I think we’re surrounded. Those girls…the ones with the Rs on their foreheads…they’re all gone. I saw one of those creatures ripe the head of the girl with the bright red hair. It popped off like a doll. What do you think they’ll do to us when they catch up? I don’t think there’s any escaping.” Amy seemed to grow more hysterical with each word.
“We can’t give up. The water sounds close by, maybe we can swim our way to safety.”
“Little rabbit…I’m coming.”
“Let’s get the fuck out of here, there’s no time.” Kaliah attempted to run again but her ankle refused to cooperate. She hopped as fast as she could and once again Amy overtook her.
Kaliah didn’t get far when she was tackled from behind. This time when she met the ground, all the air whooshed from her lungs temporarily paralyzing her.
Something straddled her back and grabbed a handful of her braids with one hand and wrapped a clawed hand around her throat.
She wanted to cry out but fear keep her scream stuck in her throat. Kaliah squeezed her eyes and braced herself for a death swipe. The monster tightened his grip on her throat temporarily cutting off her oxygen and then loosening his grip.
She gasped for breath. “Please…just…make it quick.”
“Make it quick? I have no intention of doing that now that I’ve caught you.”
Just her luck to be captured by someone who liked to play with their food.
She wiggled beneath him in earnest but her attacker was too heavy.
He grunted and leaned over here until she felt his hot breath against her ear. “You keep doing that and I won’t be responsible for what happens next.”
He grinded what felt like a very large, stiff erection against her ass and to her horror, he ran his tongue along the shell of her ear.
This couldn’t be happening. The thought of being mauled to death was scary enough but Kaliah hadn’t counted on something far worse happening.
“What are you doing? Please stop. If you’re going to kill me, just do it!”
“Kill you?” He released a gravely laugh. “Oh, I have something much more interesting in mind.”
Before she could ask him what he meant he bit into her shoulder.
Kaliah screamed as loud as her sore throat would allow. If by some sliver of a miracle she survived this, she’d have no voice in the morning.
Tears stung her eyes from the hopelessness of her situation.
“You taste even better than you smell.” He licked her spot where he’d bitten. His weight was suddenly removed as if someone had yanked him off of her. Kaliah managed to roll over to see what happened.
Three hairy beastmen slightly smaller than the one who’d attacked her, surrounded him and appeared as though they were going to attack.
She wasn’t sure what was happening but she was no fool. She’d use this opportunity to escape. Kaliah crawled to her knees and hobbled to her feet. It hurt like fuck but she didn’t look back as she hopped away as fast as she could.
The snarling sounds of wild animals fighting, sounded in her ears.
“Run as fast as you can little, rabbit, but I will find you!” her attacker called out.
