<p>The screams coming from behind the pack house jolted Aella from her fitful sleep. Wild instincts kicked in immediately and she rolled off from the bed and landed nimbly on her feet, her teeth bared in a growl and her fangs extended. Her eyes were glowing amber and darting around, looking for any intruder. She was almost halfway into her wolf form as white hair was beginning to sprout on her arms and legs.</p>
<p>A few seconds later, she realised that the screams were not because of any intruder. She slowly relaxed, her fangs and claws retracting and her fur going back to normal. Her fight or flight instincts were so sharpened from living in the woods all her life, that any alien noise or sound was enough for her to go into full wolf form and attack any moving object.</p>
<p>Aella took another good look around her room to be sure that it wasn't someone trying to attack her. When she confirmed that the sounds hadn't been from an invader, she sighed and wanted to go back to bed. But as she climbed the bed and snuggled into the covers, another scream, even worse than the first, made her ears ring again.</p>
<p>She groaned in discomfort and clasped her hands to her ears. The screams were terrible, the wailing of a tortured man. It pulled painfully at her eardrums and made the insides of her head ring with its intensity. </p>
<p>She came down from the bed and closed her ears, tightly squeezing her eyes shut. The pain was unbearable, almost physical. She tried to hold back a scream that mirrored the one she was hearing. The noise rang through from her ears to the rest of her body and before she knew it, she was sobbing from the pain.</p>
<p>By the time the screams stopped finally and she opened her eyes, she saw that she was curled in the fetal position on the carpeted floor. She didn't realise that she had fallen to the ground.</p>
<p>Aella stood up slowly and dusted her body, then walked over to the double doors that led to the verandah and overlooked the lawn of the pack. She threw open the doors and walked into the verandah. She leaned over the banister and looked around, trying to figure out the source of the noise. She saw Logan and his beta from a distance. They were standing beside the kennels, talking to the man that was kept there. </p>
