Chapter 37

Klaire's P.O.V

I hissed because my wound sting for a bit. Blood started dripping out of my hand.

"It's time Princess." She frowned when the scent of blood reaches her nostrils. She looks bored for a little then called someone.

Ali arrived in a minute, he came closer to me. I move a little to avoid him but he yanked my arm.

"We can't let you be awake; we wouldn't want you getting out again this time." He utters then pulled a syringe from his pocket.

My eyes went wide at the sight, shit! Ria came to my other side because I started struggling. I can't get knocked down, I need to stay awake.

"Stop moving around." I gasp for air when I felt his fist in my stomach. He punches me right at my abdomen.

"See, it was effective." He said proudly, then I felt a slight sting in my neck following the heaviness of my eyelids.

"Careful Princess." I felt an arm caught me before everything turn black.

***Vision***

I looked around and found myself in a dark place, it was an old dungeon. I glanced at my hands and found both my tiny hands were tied up. Where am I? And why is my hands being so tiny. I looked at my feet and they were also small. Did I turn into a child?

I heard the sounds of footsteps and my body moves on its own, moving to the far end of the cell. I can feel my fear rising? Then following the loud laughter was three adult werewolves. The other one was holding a torch, while the other two was looking down at me. One of them is holding a key for my chains.

"Hey kid wake up!" One of them said, they move the torch closer to me to see what I'm doing.

"Oh she was already awake, good thing." The one with the torch said. I heard slight thud when the other one push both of them to the side to get closer to me.

I almost cried when he pulled my hair up. It felt like my hair will going to be pulled out of my head.

"Hey Rob, we wouldn't want to leave her with bruises again. You know what happened last time." The one with the torch utter. He was cowering just by the thought of what he was talking about.

"Tsk! They wouldn't even notice! She was covered with blood anyway." The one pulling my hair said. When he said that I was covered with blood that was when I notice that he was right.

The fainting scent of blood was coming from me not in the dungeon.

"You know she will notice, especially him." When the him reached his ears, he immediately let go of my hair. I landed on my butt because it was too sudden.

I glared at him but their backs were already on my face. I heard the clicking sound of keys and the next thing happened the chains on my risk was undone.

"Carry her." He ordered, the other one started walking closer to me. I took a step back, my reaction made him look annoyed.

"Look kid, even if you try to run or stick yourself in the far corner. I can still get you." He mumbled annoyed, I tried struggling by punching him in the face when he lifted me. I scratch his right eye, making him loosen his grip on me

I tried to run but he caught my hair and pulled it harder.

"Look at what you've done!" He mumbled then I felt my whole body trembled in pain. I clench on the floor holding my abdomen where he punches me.

"Now behave yourself and stop making it hard for me!" He ordered, I tried to stand using my weak feet but it was useless my tiny body can't handle the punch of a 6-foot adult werewolf.

When he notices my lack of reaction he lifted me one more. I was right over his shoulders. I wanted to struggle again but I don't have any strength left in me.

I shut my eyes close when we reach the doorway, a blinding light welcome me. This is probably the first light that I saw since it was too dark in that cold dungeon.

I saw some people who are wearing lab gowns, the place looks like a hospital? Or clinic. White paint was all I can see in the place. They lay me at the hospital bed when we entered a plain white room.

"Now stay still." The other one mumbled then the other two started strapping me in the bed.

"What are you doing! Let go of me!" I finally found my voice, I tried to struggle again but then a woman wearing a lab gown entered the room.

"You can all go now." She said then went straight to me. The three assholes walk out of the room. Leaving me tied down in bed with this woman.

She smiled at me when she notices me watching her. She was holding a file in her hand. She looks like she was in mid 30s? Red hair that matches her pale skin and hazel brown eyes. She looks pretty too be exact.

"How are you feeling?" She started talking casually, I frowned at her familiarity in her way of speaking.

"Who are you?" I asked, she looked surprised by my question but her smile never leaves her face.

"I see, you wanna start talking now ha? That was really nice just keep doing that. And as of for your question. I will say my name again. I am Via and I am here to help you." Her voice was soft and sincere. She looks warm at the moment or I still feel dizzy?

"Why am I here?" I ask, she started doing something with the file she was holding.

"Because I need to observe you." She mumbled, she was writing something in the file.

Her eyes were scanning me; she stops for a moment then reach for something in the cabinet. She gave it to me after. I open it and found a white dress. It was a children's dress. I even forgot that I was at a body of a child.

"Come with me, let's get you clean up." I didn't say anything and remain silent. "Don't try escaping, you know what happened last time right?" I have no idea what she was talking about but end up nodding my head. Her grin widens at my response.

She reaches for the straps and undone them one by one. Once both my hands and feet were free I jump of the bed by stumbled on the floor. She came closer to me and help me stand. My whole body felt weak.

"Oh careful your wounds aren't fully healed, now come with me. Let's get you cleaned up." She guided me into a small bathroom inside the room. I glance at myself in the mirror.

I was literally covered in blood, not even a single part of my body wasn't covered with blood. My long hair was now color red, I stared at my eyes, it was gold and red.

"Now shall we?" She started giving me a bath, the water turns red as the blood started washing down my body. I look like around 7? I was glancing at my hands the whole time. After that I slip into the white dress earlier. She looks satisfied when I was done.

"So right now let's go back and meet him." I froze by what she said. Him? Whose him? I wanted to ask something but we started moving.

She pulled a card on her lab coat pocket and the slight click following a door opening in front of us. She motions me to follow her and I have no other choice but to follow her.

It was a long staircase. Only the sound of my footsteps and her heels clicking echoes. When we reach the top the door opens on its own.

My eyes went wide at the sight in front of me. There are 5 young children tied up into something like a capsule? There is some tube attached in their bodies. They were the same age as this body of mine around 7-8 years old. They were also some people wearing lab coats moving around them.

"Come with me." I didn't say anything and she pulled my hand. We entered another room it was like an office. The chair turns slowly to us showing a handsome middle age man around 30s. He had a pair grey eyes, I never saw anyone with those shade of grey eyes.

"Welcome my daughter."

***Vision end***

When I woke up I was gasping for air, I felt the heaviness in my head like someone just hammered it. Who the hell is that guy? I place my hand in my head.

I felt the familiar cold feeling of chains in my skin, glancing down both my hands were tied down. I look around and found myself inside a glass box.

I heard a clicking sound then the light turned on. I was looking at the unfamiliar face in front of me. She was smiling at me.

"Good to see you again Amara."
