Wolf Unleashed

d.

I can believe Im stuck in the mud. Could this day get any worse?

I feel like Ive experienced all the bad luck in a year in just one night.

I set my forehead against the cool steering wheel as if itll help.

Theres another heave, then the car rocks, as if something has hit underneath the front and I jerk as my eyes dart ahead into the darkness, but I see nothing.

But I was sure I felt something under my tire.

Crunch goes the car again.

It doesn move but I hear something hit my car and it moved back just a little bit then lurches forward.

Now Im getting really scared.

I must have angered the creature I hit and its trying to pass vengeance on my car. Maybe I deserve that but I can come down from the car now.

I wonder what animal it is. Well, this place is quite out of civilization so it could be a wolf, Mountain lion, or bear.

Whatever animal it is; itll mess me up if I set my feet out.

At least Im in the car now, so I should be safe for now.

I pick up my phone but theres still no signal. I can call anyone. I decide to dial 911, but there is no network bar on my phone.

I hear another noise this time, but this time its not coming from the car. It feels like Im being watched.

I move my neck slowly to the side.

Something is looking in the window at me. I gasp, holding my phone in my hand and taking in those reflective eyes, the long line of fur down to a big black nose. A wolf. A massively gigantic wolf, bigger than any wolf Ive ever seen in a zoo or even on television, is peering through the window.

It sniffs and condensation forms on the glass around its face.

Shit! I think it wants to eat me.

I haul air into my lungs. And then… nothing. Im frozen, in shock, as I see those eyes on me.

I can breathe.

I try to control my breath slowly and exhale.

At least Im inside the car, but I am trapped here.

I am beginning to accept the reality that I might spend the night inside my car.

Now I don even know which scenario is better.

Spending the night with three strangers who wish to use me as a sex toy.

of spending the night here in my car, while a massive wolf is waiting for me to step out of my car so it can devour me.

Ill just have to stay put until morning so I can be sure its gone before I can leg it to look for a phone signal.

There is silence now. I think its gone. I look over from the window to see and then I gasp in shock as I now see a man. A man is unfolding from a bent position and stretching his back as he stares at me now from the same spot.

What the **?

What manner of sorcery is this?

I clean my eyes and slap my cheeks to be sure Im not dreaming.

I know I did not just see a wolf turn into a man right before my very eyes.

But it was exactly in the same position that the animal was in.

No, he didn there must be an explanation for this.

Hes huge. He has long, curly hair.

Hes naked.

Naked!

I hear the shocked blinks I make, which sound as loud to me as those dolls I had as a kid with eyes that open and shut.

What in tarnation?
