Jupiter's Pov.
My heart is racing and my mind is reeling. All I wanted was fresh air and a taste of freedom.
I come from a happy home. A loving home. For the past fourteen years of my life I have grown up with my mom and dad near the edge of the woods. When my mom first learned of her pregnancy her and my dad had bought this two storey house and well raised me here. They are really protective because you see my mom is a unicorn half-breed and my dad is a pegasus half-breed so I suppose I am rare because I am a mix between the two. So I'm not allowed to go outside but the windows are always open which creates an airy open feeling and the forest outside my window is very inviting. Every morning I would wake up to a soft breeze and warm sunlight. And every morning I would stretch my arm out so that my hand would just reach the outside. And then I would go eat breakfast. After breakfast I would read.
But every so often when the smell of pine hit my nose I would look up and sigh. I loved my family but I also loved the outside and that is why when the need to go outside became too strong I would sneak out but only at night. It's dangerous yes mainly because of hunters but it's impossible for me to stay inside I hate it.
So when night did finally arrive I jumped out my window and glided down to the forest edge. I took a step forward and readied myself to take off. I planted my feet and bent my knees. My arms loosely by my sides and my wings raised slightly higher ready to beat down at full force.
But before I can an arm is wrapped around my waist and I'm pulled into a strong male body. The man then claps a hand over my mouth and easily picks me up. Another man appears in front of me and signals for the other to follow.
They carry me silently through the forest. My feet just skim the ground and my wings are pinned awkwardly behind me, trapped between me and the man's chest. I had given up struggling a few minutes ago seeing as the arm holding me in place was an unmovable clamp.
After another few minutes we reached the other side of the woods. They threw me into the back of a black van and I immediately curled up on my side. My wings surrounding me and silent tears running down my face.
After a awhile of driving the van came to a stop and I'm pulled out and forced up the pathway towards the door. Before I'm forced inside I take in my surroundings. It looks like a quiet neighborhood with small but homey looking houses. The lawns are all cut and well looked after. Once inside I notice the inside is quite simple. White walls with almost no decoration and carpeting throughout. But there is a darker patch of carpeting in the living room.
I'm forced up the hallway and into a small room with chipped paint. It looks like someone used to live in the room and their stuff is still here. And there is a faint sent of cinnamon and mint in the air.
Before the two men leave the one tells me this is only temporary and then the door is closed and locked. And I scan my new prison.
