The Hunt
During centuries my family has been the alphas of one of the few packs that is left here in Canada and we´ve been living in peace, but now there are hunters tracking every one of my pack members and killing them.
Since the day the hunters have been killing our pack we constanltly live in fear and moving form one place to another and one time we crossed our paths with another pack, to survive my parents and the other´s pack alphas decided to unite the packs by wedding his oldest son, Ian, with me when we both turn eighteen.
We spent years living with this new pack, when Ian and I turned eighteen the wedding was coming forward and we got married, until…
The hunters began to attack us, Ian grab me and we run away hidding, it was a slaughter, all of our packs were killed, no one survived except for us. We lived hiding and we didn´t have any family left and the packs in Canada were already extinct, we needed to survive because we were the last alpha couple in Canada, the only ones that could form a pack and don´t let werewolves get extinct.
“Ian can we stop here for a second? We´ve been walking all day long.” I said trying to catch my breath.
“Sure, we should get some rest, let´s stay in this cave and tomorrow we´ll continue, alright?” Ian said truning his head in every direction checking if we were safe.
We fell asleep. A really loud sound woke us up.
“Here, there are footprints here!” A male voice said.
“They have to be here somewhere, we need to find them and kill them!” Another male voice said.
“They found us Ian!” I said with a scared voice.
“I know Lynn, just stay quiet so they don´t find us.” Ian said while checking if they didn´t come. I noticed the anger in his voice, like he wanted revenge and to be honest I also wanted it for what they had done to my family.
“We´ll take turns watching. You sleep, I´ll take the first turn.” Ian said.
I fell asleep immediately. I remember dreaming about my family and how they were captured by hunters and Ian grabbing my hand while we ran into the woods. We hid behind a tree as we watched how they killed our families one by one, making them suffer. I began to cry and shout. Just then , Ian woke me up, embracing me in his arms.
“It´s okay Lynn, I´m here.” He said while he was holding me tight “You´re safe with me.” I hugged him as if it were the last time I would ever be in his arms.
The next morning we had to continue our walk to Alaska as we needed to get out of Canada so we could be safe. There had been hunters stalking us for four months now, we were the last of our species here and about a week before we found out that Ian had family in Alaska.
We spent one day walking and then when we finally arrived in Alaska, there were hunters waiting for us. We had no choice but to fight, as there were four of them, and only two us. Ian looked at me and nodded his head, in a few seconds we transformed into wolves and just before the fight began Ian´s family rescued us, killing the hunters and taking us to their house where we will be safe again.

My story was created because I like stories about werewolves and mythological creatures, so I decided to create a story based more less on one of the books I´m reading, named “Nightshade” by Andrea Cremer and I started writing my story “The Hunt”.
