Chapter 11

It did not take long for me to find my mother; she was laying in her human form sprawled out naked by the stream. I immediately howled in distress and shifted back to my human form. Not caring that I was now naked and sensed that he had followed me. 

  I rushed to my poor mother and started to cry because I was scared. 

  What if she died? 

  She was barely breathing and looked like she had been attacked since she was covered in cuts that looked fresh. 

  “Isla, please allow me to help. This is my fault.” he sighed, and I could see that he meant well but that did not mean I was about to give him any chance of hope with me. 

  “Here.” he suddenly went behind a huge oak tree. I wondered what he was doing when he reappeared with a bundle of clothing. He was also dressed in a tracksuit bottom and white plain top. 

  “What is this?” I frowned and took the clothing that he was holding out to me.
