You could feel the hot burning sensation filling your lungs as you ran, only accented by the cold air you drew in with each breath. The crunch of the snow under your footfalls fell on deaf ears as all you could hear was the hammering of your own heart in your ears. This was not how you imagined spending your Christmas, but this was something you had wanted for a while. You clutched at your chest, trying to to contain the perverse thrill that gripped your core. Part of you wanted to stay here, to let her catch you, but where was the fun in that. Right now you were prey and all prey could do was run.

You shot off like a bolt, running deeper and deeper into the forest. You vaulted over trees, ducked under branches as the scenery rushed by in a blur. And that's when you heard it, a loud howl piercing the air. She was on the loose. Even from here you could hear the thunderous sounds of her steps, the sounds of branches splintering as she passed. Every part of you was screaming to run, to fly further than you ever had before, an instinct you quickly obeyed. Determined to lose the predator on your heels, you wound your way through the trees until everything went silent. You ducked behind cover to catch your breath. Seems the big hound wasn't as good as she bragged. All you had to do now was make it back to the house and you were home free...but which way was it again. As you took in your surroundings you were well and truly lost. As the panic began to set in you heard a branch snap in the distance and as you swiveled your head around all you could see was a massive blur that seemed to disappear from sight. You froze, only your heavy breathing could be heard and seen, puffs of hot air made visible from the cold. There was another noise, this time like something grinding against stone. At this point you just picked a direction and started running. You had to get away from whatever that was. You leaped over a fallen tree and suddenly everything went dark.

You felt yourself tumbling to the ground, another body pressed against yours in the form of a tackle. You hit the ground with a pained gasp as the wind left your lungs. And it took a minute for your eyes to focus.

"Hello little prey~ Seems like our game is over and I win~"

You shook your head in a daze, but you already knew who it was that had you pinned to the snow by the sound of her voice. You make a joke about how she could have taken it a bit easier on you with the takedown.

"And ruin the fun? Now why would I do a silly thing like that? Prey are meant to be chased and devoured~ And I'm going to have fun devouring you~"

This was one helluva way to spend Christmas with Naomi, but you wouldn't have it any other way.
