As Alex made his way through the forbidden forest, an uneasy feeling settled in the pit of his stomach. He couldn't shake the sensation that he was being followed, and every snap of a twig or rustle of leaves sent a jolt of fear through him.
Despite his rising panic, Alex tried to remain composed, keeping his footsteps steady and his breathing even. He knew that any sign of weakness would only embolden whatever was stalking him.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity of tense silence, Alex saw the edge of the forest in the distance. He quickened his pace, heart hammering in his chest, relief almost palpable.
But just as he thought he was in the clear, a fierce growl shattered the stillness of the forest. Before he had a chance to react, a massive werewolf leapt from the shadows, fangs bared and eyes blazing with hunger.
Alex tried to dodge the creature's attack, but it was too quick for him. Its jaws closed around his arm, crushing bone and tearing flesh. Alex screamed in agony as he felt the werewolf's hot breath on his face, its eyes boring into his with a deadly intensity.
Desperately, he struggled to break free, to fight back, but it was no use. The werewolf was too strong, too ferocious, and Alex was no match for its primal power.
As darkness closed in around him, Alex knew that he was done for. He had wandered into the forbidden forest alone, and now he was paying the ultimate price for his recklessness.
