Desa tumbled painfully and eventually landed on her front. She thought she heard someone gasp, but she wasn't sure. She tried to prop herself up with her arms, but the fall had taken it out of her. She just collapsed back onto the tables surface.

"O-Oh my god, a-are you okay?" A worried and slightly startled voice met her ears. If she was still in the walls, she wouldn't have been so scared of being addressed. Desa wasn't in the walls, though. She was in the predators living room, laying on the coffee table as if she were some sort of treat for the giant. A few seconds passed of Desa trying to build up enough strength to stand and get away, but she was stopped with a shuddery gasp of air as a giant hand gently wrapped around her. It lifted her up into the air and making her face the predator.

"A-Are you hurt? I-I can do first aid, hang in there, little miss," the giant spoke in a worried tone. There was even a hint of panic in his voice, catching the borrower off guard. Desa was moved to a warm, soft blanket on the couch as she got a good look at the predator.

She had to admit, he was handsome. His eyes were a shimmering forest green and his dark, black hair complimented them perfectly. His jawline was sharp and dotted with a light scruff that went along with his hair. He wore a pair of glasses in front of his warm eyes. He was wearing a muscle shirt that sure as hell did its job. A pair of large, powerful muscles made up his arms. His broad chest was outlined by the shirt, sending a frightened shiver down Desa's spine. Was he a bodybuilder?

The man left the room, leaving Desa to her thoughts, considering that she could barely move. She was way too tired to try and run and besides, the predator was offering to help her, for some reason. Maybe he just wanted Desa to have enough strength to squirm around in him once he eats her? Predators did love prey that fought back. Desa just sighed nervously and let herself lean into the blanket. It was strange. She actually felt rather cozy. Shouldn't she be scared? Shouldn't she be trying to escape? What was wrong with her? Tears started to form in her brown eyes, the feeling of hurt kicking her in the gut.

"Alright, I got the first aid ki-... W-Why are you crying? What's wrong?" The predator returned. Desa just closed her eyes and curled up a bit more. Why did she have to be different? Why couldn't she just be normal? More tears spilt down her cheeks, a soft sob escaping her lips. She shied back at the sound of something being set on the table, being followed by shifting.

"Little miss?" The predators voice was much softer now, but sounded much closer. Desa nervously opened her eyes and took a shaky breath when her ocean blue eyes flooded into the calm forests greens of his. They were level with her, but that only made her uncomfortable.

"Please... L-Let me go, I promise I'll leave immediately and-" she was cut off by a gasp when a large hand suddenly curled around her, cupping her into a small space.

"Let you... I-I'm so sorry, but I can't. Y-You're hurt, and it's late, something could happen!" He sounded actually concerned, but Desa didn't hear it. She only heard the words that left his mouth, and they angered her.

"Well, that hasn't stopped me before! You can't just keep me tr-trapped here!" She snapped. Her hands were shaking, from fear or anger, she didn't know. All that she knew was that she had just snapped at a predator. Her courage quickly faded away and was replaced by horror. Was he going to punish her for yelling like that?

"I....." the predator stuttered, seemingly caught off guard. He probably wasn't expecting her to lash out like that. His surprise was soon washed over with guilt. She probably only yelled because she was scared, and she was right. He couldn't keep her here. It wouldn't be right.

"Y-You're right. I'm sorry, but, please, let me help you. You can go anytime you want, but at least let me tend to your injuries first," he said, much softer. His eyes pleaded nervously, sending another shudder down Desa's spine. Maybe she could trust him. Maybe.....
