"Celeste," I heard Elijah's voice and I turned around to look at him. He was putting on a gray suit with a white inner shirt and his hair was combed to sleek. His shoe was as black at night reflecting his suit as he walks and on his left hand was his golden crown and royal robe that dragged on the ground and he seems to go not care one bit.
"I was looking for you," He continued, stopping in front of me with a smile while I gave him one too but his smile flattered when he saw my tear stained cheek and bloodshot eyes.

I woke up with my eyes red and puffy from crying. I sighed as I flinged the blue duvet over my body and got out of bed. The wooden floor felt cold against my bare feet as I sauntered to the bathroom.I looked at myself in the mirror and I could no longer recognize myself. My green eyes looked lifeless with dark bags underneath them from crying to much. My cheeks were hallowed like I have not eaten for days but they appeared there from the stress I've been passing through lately.The messy bun I put my hair in last night was now loose and a few strangs were laying on my forehead.I licked my dry lips and shook my head adverting my gaze from the mirror.

The sky was dark and the moon hid behind the clouds. For others it might not be safe for them to be walking alone in the woods but I felt free, free from my problems.I found a perfect spot behind a large tree to shift into and I quickly strip from my clothes. Bending on all fours, I closed my eyes and imagined my dark wolf.I growled as my body transformed, and I slouched like an animal. My bones snapped, lengthened, and popped back into place.
