Night of Omega
Sharon was sitting on a bench under the tree, drenched in rain water. Her black silk and satin glittering dress was shining more in the dark night, enhancing her delicate and glowing complexioned figure more. The ring in her left hand's finger was brightly glittering like it was shouting for attention. The small yet stone cut colorless diamond was beautiful, trying to show off the night that the girl the is owned by someone but the tears in her eyes were showing the mirror of her delicate and might be broken heart.
Sharon wiped the tears which couldn't be gone unnoticed even in the night full of heavy and scary rain. Her hairs were messily tied in a bun but few strands were willing to be touching her plump, pink cheeks which were almost red due to cold and her sobs. She shivered hearing the sound of thunder and curled her fist to stop herself from screaming; more tears rolled down from her eyes as the fear and loneliness surrounded her.
Sharon shifted her position and looked at her back as if wishing to see someone. Her face fell when she found no one but the lone darkness and empty road with that the street light which was about to burst due to electric current in it due to water, burst. This made Sharon squeeze her mouth with her palm and sobs louder. She looked at her cell phone covered in water drops and searched for signals again, in vain.
She rested her head on the pillar of the bench and closed trying to calm down her fragile heart which was beating at the speed of roller coaster right now. She sighed and tried to inhale fresh air. After few second, she heard a faint of growling sound. Her eyes jerked open and she tried to find the source of the voice but found no one. The sound was like someone is hissing and growling very lightly but still noticeable and that cleared the fact, that someone is here and she is alone here now.
She stood and walked towards the nearing forest like area from where the sound of coming. She touched the trees and the sand upon them irked her palms. She slightly rubbed them on her dress. She found another sound, a bit near and a bit more, scary! It was some animal, sure thing. Living in a place like Dehradun was always risky but she came here few weeks ago for her boy friend. Her love, because she couldn't spend 4 years of her life just talking to him on cell phone and seeing him on video chats.
Few days ago, she made a friend here named, Simi. She called her today at the party to her farm house, even after Swayam's constant insist that she shouldn't go. She went, but of course he promised that he do be coming to pick her up after the party ends but a leech boy tried to took advantage of her and without even informing Simi, she ran out of a party. After half an hour when she ran, she got a call from Simi scolding her for running away like that and the bottom line was has she was upset because she couldn't even come to find her because of this heavy stormy rainfall in town.
She knew Swayam must be on street finding her but he don't know where she could be gone in Dehradun. Shit, she just came here 3 weeks ago and she regretted going to the party now. It was super scary because she have heard lots of horror stories about Dehradun and the wolves or vampires here, though she never trusted them but the girl who was sitting right here alone, in the dark, under the rain, almost in the forest can only answer it.
She was in her deep thoughts when she heard her phone buzzing. She quickly got the look of it and it was Swayam. She picked the phone, "Swayam?" She tried to sound clear but the signals were pretty abnormal at the moment. "Sharon!? Are you there, babe? Hello? Sharon?" Swayam kept asking as if he didn't hear her saying in the very start. "Swayam, I am here!" She yelled a bit, "Thank God, Sharon, tell me where are you. I will be there in a minute?" He asked sound totally worried and shit scared.
Before Sharon could tell him that where she was a loud growling sound came and seconds later her cell phone shut down, batter dead. If only Sharon could cry and cry till there are no tears left then she would have done that because the only hope to get back to Swayam was dead now and this made Sharon scream in fear.
Something suddenly made Sharon stand and walk inside the forest, deep inside. She kept walking, her heart was bursting with fear but her legs didn't support her. It was like someone was calling her, someone close to her heart. She looked at her hands which were sticky suddenly and saw them covered in blood. Thick, deep red colored blood but it doesn't stink. It has a sweet scent in it, seeing this strangely her fear vanished and she was shocked that rather than shouting and screaming she is fine, totally. Blood was somewhat making her feel like she is feel and nothing will going to happen to her, something is protecting her or rather someone, who is the person whom blood is on her palms right now? She didn't touch any human being!
"Sharon." She heard a faint chanting of voice, not recognizing yet a bit recognizing. It seems like someone she knows is calling her name out with the voice is suddenly so heavy and scary that she can't recognize the voice, it could be scary for other but she wasn't scared of it. She felt a slight breathing on her nape which made her freeze with due to the intensity and warmness in the breath.
"Run, Sharon!" that voice in her ear but before she could analyze the depth of the words a growling thundered from behind her, turning back she looked a black wolf with almost red eyes howling at her. She was stunned and terrify, her legs were stuck to the ground, shaking. She didn't have ability to even overcome her scare for few seconds and run, run? Suddenly she realized that this wolf was the reason that the voice instructed her to run! But how did that voice knew? Who was he? She started taking slow steps backward while facing wolf. He growled ever louder, louder than thunder which couldn't be heard with outmost hearing in this high thundered rainfall. Wolf started taking slow and steady steps Sharon while she was taking back steps, even running couldn't help. She knew!
She knew he was just not the wolf but a human being in disguise of wolf. She turned around with a jerk and started running as fast as she can. After few seconds she looked back but found no one, as soon she looked front again the wolf was in front of her sight and attacked her on her arms which got highly stretched and soon she was laying on the ground, blood oozing out of her arm and wolf was bending over her. It seems like he was not going to kill her but was going to keep attacking her till she gets in the position to die, mercilessly and painfully. Wolf barked again at her face and soon tears were rolling down from her eyes, which led her to scream as loud as possible which only got lost in the deep surrounds of forest and heavy rain. Wolf bend more and Sharon closed her eyes, thinking of Swayam for the last time she could.
Before anything could happened she heard a howled screaming of paws clutching and painful growls in her ears. She jerked open her eyes and set on her elbows only to be get shocked again, only shocked this time. Another wolf was there killing the wolf which attacked. This wolf was beautiful covered in think and soft light brown furs. His eyes were pure and deep brown, it looked like heaven, home! She kept looking at the wolf until he finally finished the life out from the one tried to hurt her. She was standing now, and walking towards the brown wolf whom arm was a bit hurt.
