As the incision on my neck started to gently close up, I gasped. As my body temperature rose once more and I started to burn, I hissed. I started to regain feeling in my body once my neck stopped bleeding. My skin tingled as I struggled to push myself up and onto all fours.I always imagined that when the day eventually arrived and I finally Shifted, I would be thrilled. when I eventually turn into a real werewolf. But I didn't feel excited at all. Nothing but anxiety, anguish, and terror were present. When I eventually Shifted, I never imagined that I would be lost, hurt, and by myself. Though I was. Alone and pleading for help. Nobody arrived.I screamed louder than I'd ever yelled before as my flesh bubbled and appeared to be on fire. Then, as my other leg violently shattered, my left leg snapped as well, and I buckled. Each of my bones fractured, formed, and then broke again as I lay on the ground sobbing and screaming.The bone shattered several times before reaching the proper f

The doctor said, "It's because of your age, Luna." "Because you had not Shifted, your body was preventing you from entering puberty. Wolves who Shift in their early teens gradually shift as their bodies get ready for the first Shift. However, only in little doses, nothing out of the ordinary for kids going through puberty. As a result, when they Shift, they have almost fully undergone the puberty transformation. Your body wasn't yet prepared to Shift, thus your puberty changes hadn't begun.I said, nodding in agreement, "And the forced Shift made all those changes happen at once."The doctor told Levi and I to call him if the temperature or illness started making me feel sick at all before he sent us on our way. We initially checked in with Josh, Dean, and the search teams, but neither Yemi nor Rafa had been located. I was grateful and dissatisfied at the same time; I wanted to punish them yet was afraid to run into them again."You ought to return home and recuperate. I can't spare D

It turns out I was really skilled at telling people what to do, so it was much easier for me to lead the pack than I had anticipated. Oh, right. However, despite how effective I was at "delegating," as Levi always referred to his demanding ways, there was still a ton of paperwork to process.Due to Seth's excessively high chair, I wound up spending the majority of my time there, attempting to avoid passing out from boredom. Fortunately, my illness had passed, and the next day I was returning to my old Pack. Not only would I finally see Seth, but I would also get to brag to everyone from my former Pack.Hey girl, are you prepared to leave this place? As she poked her head around the door, Shawna questioned. As I looked up at her, I sighed."Nah, I still have a ton of work to do. You may continue without me, I said.Okay, I have to go shopping anyhow. I'll get some dinner supplies and perhaps some ice cream. You can always come and see me later at the mall.Not going to happen, Shaw, I

When I entered the house where I grew up, my brother was the first person I saw. He had the same light brown skin, rounder eyes, and unruly dark hair appearance. But I didn't resemble the person I had been before I left at all. When he saw me, he shouted out in disbelief, "What the fuck?"My mother told me to "Roland, language" as she made her way from the kitchen to the living room. When she noticed me, she skidded to a stop. She glanced at my new appearance while blinking.She exhaled, "What the fuck?" similar to what she had just yelled at Roland for stating."Mabella? Hija?"Hey, madre, I said with a warm smile. Even if my mother and I didn't always get along and were at opposite ends of a fairly broad spectrum, she was still my mother. She reached out and tightly embraced me. She held me at arm's length and examined me before releasing me.She smiled and said, "Mabella.. you look so grown up. You look just like your abuela." identical to your namesake. As she tucked my hair behin

It is becoming late. As I took Levi's call, he moaned angrily. Chris and I were still at the shooting range, and it seemed like we had completely lost track of time."Is it? I retorted, gazing at my watch, "became distracted. Nearly one in the morning.The question "Are you alone?""No, I'm staying with Chris. Once we've put the stuff away, I'll go back.Levi groaned, "Okay, baby, I'll see you in a second."When he spoke up once more, I was going to hang up.Actually, I say don't go. I'll be there to fetch you."Levi, no problem. My travel time to reach you will be ten minutes. If you're so concerned, I'll ask Chris to accompany me."No, please wait until I get here. I'm going right now.Before I had a chance to dispute further, he hung up the phone. I sighed in annoyance and put my phone back in my pocket after that. Chris raised an eyebrow while lowering his bow.He made the right assumption when he asked, "We're done?"Yes, Levi is coming to get me up, she replied.He mocked, "Wow,
