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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2NYLlz3LQ
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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNVaVGCiiv
"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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqZ1LDcLlz
"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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHccCSdyph
"Where's Liam?" I winced. I didn't know why, but I needed him to be with me. "I need... my Liam."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZYZ2TyO3d
"What's happening?" another voice, vaguely familiar, asked. Bryan Mitchell, the back of my mind told me.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG4PBlC7Mq
"She's shifting," Martyn answered, releasing my arm from his grip.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxpg9XA3KX
"But, how?"875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZk3w85U4ma
"Liam," I groaned, my spine cracking. "Where's my Liam?"875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12BLbOMUf7
"That's how," he muttered. "Will must've strengthened her bond or something."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjVxtMQV3z
"Alpha is going to kill him when he finds out."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeBHSDPlyM
"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?"875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb822kxPo6
"She's shifting," Martyn explained. "Her bones have just started to-"875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr55o5MPHXj
"How did this happen?" His voice was increasing in pitch, as he gradually lost his temper with them.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7n6kle2uU
"It wasn't us!" Bryan exclaimed, a little too quickly.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRH6oAPoTqQ
"THEN WHO WAS IT?"875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaKagf1S9C
"Me." 875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNFC4rXAqV
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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7k8ITsypb
"Liam," I breathed.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodIHzqPeaQ
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. 875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5HLIRnK9A
"You'll be alright, Lyn."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAluJ11QNa
The pain practically vanished, as I began to lose myself in the endless storm in his eyes.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroISdXQMWg
"Do you know what's happening?" he whispered.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1mXqtWOYW
"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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexFjppV7lG
"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."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkIlrpigDG
"But it's not full moon..."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDzqAXIU9f
"Full moon has nothing to do with it," Martyn explained. "At least not for Gray Wolves. However, Brown Wolves are a different story. They-"875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZsGeZLrh9
A sharp crack of pain attacked my joints and I screamed.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDN67APctD
"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."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZb4fxYo9tk
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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPUpV07Zof
"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."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13EvFg45Cf
I focused on him; only him.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Fkv9gR2es
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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY19KiAgpuc
"I love you, Weslyn."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWsc8jFm8x
"I love you, too, Liam."875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6FaBpB7UG
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.875Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfFsD5sVVc
I had shifted into a Gray Wolf.
