CHAPTER FOUR
Everything was dark. While I knew I should be frightened, I somehow wasn't. My eyes were blindfolded, and my hands were fastened in front of me with a length of black cloth. Rex hadn't twisted it around them very tight, perhaps not wanting to leave marks.
Surely, he couldn't keep me captive for long. If I didn't return for dinner time, the werewolves would start wondering where I was and send a search party out after me. Compound staff would be at Rex's doorstep in a matter of hours. I was fairly certain I could expect a safe release. Then again, I didn't know this man at all. Who could really tell what his intentions were?
“I don't much see the point of a blindfold since I know who you are,” I told Rex.
“You'll want the blindfold, trust me,” he said in a low voice.
The implications of his words made the first real shiver of fear roll through my body. What was so bad that I couldn't see? Or, did he plan to . . .
“What do you want with me?” I asked.
“The same thing you want with me. To bring awareness to the lycanthropy disease.”
“Holding me hostage isn't going to make a strong case for werewolves.”
“I don't plan to hold you hostage.”
“Then what do you plan to do with me?”
“I plan to bring the issue a bit closer to home.”
“What's that supposed to mean?”
“You'll see.”
My breath hitched as Rex lifted up one of my feet, working to remove my sneaker. At first, I had no idea what he planned to do, but when both shoes were off, and he pushed me onto the bed to pull down my pants, my heart began to pound against my chest with a fierceness I had never felt before.
“You don't want to do this, Rex,” I told him. “Think of what they'll do to you if they find out.”
“They won't find out,” he assured me.
“What makes you think I won't tell them?”
“Because then you'd be stuck here like the rest of us. I thought you were smarter than that, Taya.”
Trying to get away from Rex, I kicked at him, but my efforts were fruitless. In fact, they only seemed to aid him in taking off my pants faster.
“Making me a werewolf won't do anything to help your cause. It will just make you look like blood-thirsty monsters incapable of living in normal society,” I insisted.
“Well, once your report is out, people read it, and then find out that you were turned into a werewolf while inside the reservation, I think they'll be more interested in sending aid for a cure. This report will be what skyrockets your career, no? Hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions of people will read it. You'll surely be interviewed on television because of it. Your face will be well known. And when the general populous discovers that it's the face of a werewolf, you'll become the poster child for the cure.”
“If I'm a werewolf, then my first shift will be the night that I leave the reservation.
