The pain in my skull had stopped, but the memories were somehow more agonising. What I saw, proved that I was a Werewolf and also that I was an orphan. Neither my father, nor my mother had any siblings and so my only family remaining was West. Nice brother, he was. Kidnapping his sister and locking her up.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2u45cfWJQ
But then more agony came. It wasn't in my head, though. My knees began to burn and forearms stung. I froze, more shocked then affected by the pain. A large crack echoed throughout the room and pain exploded in my joints, weakening my stance. I sunk down to my knees, screaming in agony. My heart raced and my blood burnt like fire in my veins.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSFipilmUB
"LUNA!" I yelled. "LUNA, SAVE ME!" The door swung open and several people bombarded in at once. One grabbed my hand and checked my pulse.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKpltfsM03
"It's happening," he stated. I glanced down at my wrist and found a dark-skinned hand gripping it tightly. Some far away part of me recognised him. He was his friend, Martyn.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0fNNBtBmF
"Where's Liam?" I winced. I didn't know why, but I needed him to be with me. "I need... my Liam."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaixJcYdyr
"What's happening?" another voice, vaguely familiar, asked. Bryan Mitchell, the back of my mind told me.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN93LBJGHTo
"She's shifting," Martyn answered, releasing my arm from his grip.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LIbHvlhrx
"But, how?"807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC5MAENIRw
"Liam," I groaned, my spine cracking. "Where's my Liam?"807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnBspKAMji
"That's how," he muttered. "Will must've strengthened her bond or something."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbAfRdLuyO
"Alpha is going to kill him when he finds out."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmkzjiQFm9
"Who am I going to kill?" a new voice demanded. I didn't even need to try to recognise who it belonged to. West Grayson. "What did you morons do to her?"807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjfPlErLcI
"She's shifting," Martyn explained. "Her bones have just started to-"807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXWmAJmUD1
"How did this happen?" His voice was increasing in pitch, as he gradually lost his temper with them.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGUdvlVcOL
"It wasn't us!" Bryan exclaimed, a little too quickly.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTRoDae7ay
"THEN WHO WAS IT?"807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuBB6jQcEz
"Me." 807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0wlIoHQdd
The voice was calm and composed, contrasting West's outraged tone. He only said one word, but it was enough for the pain to evaporate, many times faster than it had arrived and I felt my heart return to its normal pace.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH4dYvUvoZ
"Liam," I breathed.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWW1VTdKYj
He ignored West entirely and kneeled beside me, slipping his hand into mine. My eyes locked with his and I could almost talk to him without words. 807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWpqf6QvW8
"You'll be alright, Lyn."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8OjGLvVvn
The pain practically vanished, as I began to lose myself in the endless storm in his eyes.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KBiTbnzeG
"Do you know what's happening?" he whispered.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxooYdseN1
"I'm shifting?" My reply came out as a question rather than a statement. It was what Martyn had said repeatedly, but I wasn't sure of what it meant.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4zBsXqrqL
"Yes, Lyn. You're shifting... Shifting into a wolf, for the first time. Usually for a Gray Wolf, it first happens around 12 or so but since your wolf has been suppressed... It's resurfacing soon after the bond was recreated."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDBmjMEHzC
"But it's not full moon..."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAl0IU2jcl
"Full moon has nothing to do with it," Martyn explained. "At least not for Gray Wolves. However, Brown Wolves are a different story. They-"807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyvw7upVz2
A sharp crack of pain attacked my joints and I screamed.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pVS6tOYDh
"It's only the first time that hurts," Liam assured me. "If you pass this... There's nothing better than being a Gray Wolf. You get insane speed, enhanced hearing, a strong sense of smell and tracking qualities along with it."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvYD7091Yr
I opened my mouth to reply but found that I couldn't speak. A quiet whine fell from my lips and I felt a tear slide down my cheek.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0S4AvOIPFf
"You've already started changing internally," he told me. "You won't be able to talk until you shift back." He ran his other hand through my hair and smiled sadly. "Look at me," he murmured. "You're going to get through this, Lyn... No matter what."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHb419eEYo
I focused on him; only him.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwF6NNRujg7
Soon enough, the rest of the world seemed to fade away and all I could feel was his presence. Every cell and vein in my body ached for him... For his presence to be forever.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2PTsPjJH8
"I love you, Weslyn."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlP0lVQfwQ
"I love you, too, Liam."807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLY4hOCMqBQ
My voice was no longer a sound but rather, an echo in my head. I didn't even need to see my silvery-gray fur to realise that I had already shifted.807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWneFVCw4ZG
I had shifted into a Gray Wolf.
