For some reason, the tension in the room had completely dissipated the moment Nicolas picked me up in his arms. As he carried me, I felt the warmth of his body surrounding me, and I drifted off to sleep.“I don’t think that’s the case!”“You’re not the only one who knows things now!”I woke up late at night to a heated argument right in my ears. Annie and Nicolas seemed to be debating something. I opened my eyes slightly, seeing Annie waving a record in front of the bed, while Nicolas sat at the foot of it, his back to me.“This isn’t the best album” Nicolas countered.“Actually, it is the best album” I forced myself to sit up and answered. “At least for me.”“See?” Annie flashed a triumphant smile and skipped over to me. “The lyrics are much deeper. You sounded more inspired, Lisa.”“Sorry, did we wake you?” Nicolas was no longer focused on the album debate. “We should’ve kept it down.”“I was going to wake her up anyway.” Annie dashed out of the room and came back moments later with

"This whole wolf healing thing is amazing!" Annie said, examining the spot where my wound used to be. This was my sixth day at her house, and all that remained was a faint scar.On the second day, Annie started going to class again and bringing me my assignments so I could study and do my homework at home. By the third day, I was already able to move around and take care of myself, but I decided to keep resting at her place until I was sure the wound wouldn’t reopen.Nicolas came to see me every day after school and always brought me something to eat. On the fourth day, Liam showed up too, but he didn’t stay long. For some reason, William hadn’t come to see me even once, which made me think he was either really pissed about what happened or just didn’t care."Thank you for everything!" I said to Marta as she removed the stitches.She had taken me in and cared for me like a daughter, with much more kindness than my own mother ever had. Annie was so lucky to have her."You’re amazing!

The week started with clear skies. I felt the sun on my face as I warmed up for the race. I glanced around at the unfamiliar faces of the other competitors, but none of them seemed to notice me. Meanwhile, Lorraine was getting looks from everyone, as if she were the strongest rival at Siram High."Ready to lose again?"A tall girl with curly black hair and dark skin stood face-to-face with Lorraine. A logo was printed on her white uniform—a red bow and arrow inside a stylish crest. Judging by the symbol, I could bet this was the school Nicolas had said was better than ours in this category. Apparently, they were better at racing too…"Sorry, sweetheart, I didn’t even notice you," Lorraine mocked. "Maybe that’s because you’re not good enough to win again this year.""Excuse me? You think you're better than me now?" The irritation on the competitor’s face was obvious in her aggressive stance. Lorraine just snorted and shrugged."I’m not talking about myself. I’m talking about our newbie

I woke up early the next day. It was the first time I’d been back to the forest since the incident. I ran with my wolf until I was exhausted, then turned to my bow, which was still hanging from the tree. After retrieving it, I headed home for a hearty breakfast before heading out for the third day of the tournament.Unlike the other competitors I’d faced throughout the week, the young woman gearing up next to me seemed to know exactly what she was doing. She was from Alvorada High, and her long brown hair was tied up in a bun. Every subtle move she made told me she’d been practicing archery since she was a kid. I wasn’t wrong!The targets were set up outdoors. As soon as she started warming up, I noticed her perfect form. After taking careful aim, her first shot was flawless.A worthy opponent, my wolf said from inside me. I studied her profile: oval face, thin lips, dark brown eyes. She was about my height, around 5'5".Without worrying too much about my posture or other details, I q

The sun had already started rising over the horizon when I slipped back into my room. I barely avoided getting caught sneaking into the bathroom. I needed a shower to wash off my wolf’s strong scent.When I stepped out of the shower, I noticed a different smell in the air and walked down the hallway to take a peek. The table was set for breakfast, and an unexpected guest was sitting there. Clutching my towel tightly around me, I rushed back to my room, embarrassed, hoping I hadn’t been seen.What’s he doing here? Lisa asked.I have no idea.The scent of freshly baked cookies, rich with spices, masked William’s woody fragrance. My heart pounded as I hurried to get dressed, then I reluctantly returned to the kitchen. William gave me a small smile when he saw me, but I ignored him and sat as far away as possible, on the opposite side of the table."Good morning, Grandma! Good morning, Auntie!""Aren’t you going to greet our guest?" Grandma chided, setting two mugs on the table."What are

He didn’t say a word on the way back, nor did he show any signs of regret. As soon as we stopped, I hurried out of the car without looking back. There was no time to grab something to eat—I had to run straight to the ring to make it in time for the tournament.I pity your opponents today, my wolf said in a serious tone. She knew very well that all this rage inside me would be taken out on them.I tightened my white gi, securing it with a simple gray belt from the locker room. It didn’t match my rank—when I left Heington, I was already a purple belt—but I hadn’t brought it with me when I moved. I kicked off my shoes, tossing them carelessly into the locker, and started stretching.The moment I stepped onto the tatami, I noticed a huge crowd gathered around, watching the final moments of an ongoing match."Eliza!" my instructor called the moment she saw me. "Where were you? I thought you wouldn’t make it in time. You’re up next!"I nodded at her and took my position.My first opponent w

Annie walked with me and waited while I changed. After that, we crossed the garden to leave the school and walked down the street for about ten minutes in complete silence."How about that diner?" I asked Annie, pointing to a rustic brick building with a large sign above its wooden double doors that read: "Parada Certa Diner.""The portions aren’t very well-seasoned, but the pastries and pies are amazing.""Then it’s settled."Even though the sign on the door said "Open," there were no customers or waitstaff inside. The only person there was an older woman near the counter, placing a freshly made pie next to two others on the back counter."Oh, hi! Good morning, girls!" The woman turned to us with a bright, welcoming smile."Are you really open?" Annie asked. I thought the sign on the door made that pretty clear."I decided to open a little earlier today. Lucky you! The first customers of the day get a ten percent discount. What can I get you?""A slice of each pie and a cappuccino wi

The sky was overcast, but the fresh breeze and the birds soaring happily overhead suggested it wouldn’t rain today. I sat on the edge of the fountain in the town’s main square, and Annie settled beside me.“Why did you want to walk to the square?” she asked.“I thought it would be a good place to wait.” Since I had managed to push the pain down, even if only temporarily, a ray of light broke through the fog in my mind. This wasn’t about me anymore.“Wait for what?”“I’ve already opened up. Now it’s your turn.” I was sure her strange behavior earlier hadn’t been for nothing.“So you noticed…” She crossed her arms over her chest and gazed thoughtfully at the water.“Annie, you can count on me too. I saw that Liam and the others deliberately gave us this time alone. What’s on your mind?”“It’s about my birthday. Liam thinks I’m going to ask you to help with the party preparations, but my mom’s already handling that…”“Go on,” I encouraged her.She let out a long sigh, then met my eyes. “

I hadn’t heard many stories about it since romantic relationships had never been my focus. Still, I knew that werewolves tended to have a much more active sex life than humans. Mating was crucial for wolves, strengthening the bond with their mate and, in turn, the wolf itself. More than just a desire, it was an instinctual need—something that, fortunately, Lisa didn’t seem to experience. At least not yet. I guess even in that regard, she was an unusual wolf.“Well, you really do seem ready for this. Just be careful, okay?”“Don’t worry, I’ve thought of everything! I—”“No need to tell me the details,” I cut her off. “I’m still underage, remember?”I’d much rather talk about monsters and battles than hear about relationships and intimacy. Annie let out a soft laugh and stayed still, smiling like a lovestruck fool.“Hold on a second,” I told her as I went to my aunt’s room to borrow a mirror. I positioned it behind her so she could get a better look at the hairstyle I had done.“Eliza,

Saturday morning was sunny. I spent the entire morning helping my grandmother fill mini crostatas with the jams my aunt had prepared throughout the week. After lunch, I took a taxi to deliver the order to the party venue."Hey! Over here!" Annie waved at me as soon as she saw me arriving. The taxi passed by the alpha's house and stopped in front of a wall at the neighboring estate. Annie opened a large, white-painted iron gate that led onto the property, and the taxi drove in.I was surprised by the number of flowers arranged in beds along the pathway. The taxi stopped in front of a glass-walled building covered in vines climbing all the way to the roof. Annie quickly caught up to me and helped unload the order."Thanks for bringing this. Liam’s busy with other things, so he couldn’t come pick it up," Annie said, grinning as she helped me carry the boxes inside."No need to thank me—I’m happy to help. And if there’s anything else I can do, just let me know!""Everything’s pretty much

I stretched my arms and yawned, accidentally bumping into the figure sleeping peacefully beside me. It was probably around 3 a.m., the time I’d biologically set to train with Lisa.I stepped out of the tent and sat by the water. The sense of peace I felt was indescribable. I couldn’t quite understand why this place brought out two completely opposite emotions in me. Sometimes, I felt restless, my heart racing, and other times, like now, I felt calm.It's so peaceful! How about we go hunting? Lisa suggested."I don’t want to leave Annie alone," I whispered, mesmerized by the movement of the water. "Besides, we should start heading back if we want to keep a pace that's manageable for her."Lisa agreed right away. I stood up and began packing my things into my bag. Then, I gently nudged her shoulder. She shifted a bit and opened her eyes."Hmm, why are you awake? It’s still so dark!""I need to head back. While you get the day off from school, that’s not the case for me.""But the guide

The transformation was now complete, but her body remained on the ground, convulsing as her paws twitched as if trying to grasp something. I lay down beside her, and it seemed to calm her. Minutes later, she reacted, showing that she had regained consciousness. A newly awakened wolf wants only one thing—to run! Unfortunately, when it was my turn, I couldn’t give that to Lisa, but I made it up to her later.Annie’s wolf clumsily rolled over, trying to get to her feet. I used my body to help steady her and walked in front of her, locking eyes with her. The glow in her gaze told me the worst had passed. From this point on, it was just a matter of making small adjustments as she got used to her new form. I wrapped both bags around my neck and walked ahead slowly, waiting for her to follow.Her paws wobbled as she took slow, uncertain steps forward. Little by little, her stride became steadier, and when I saw she was starting to find her rhythm, I picked up the pace, matching my pace to he

We started the hike right after I checked the items Annie brought. I wanted to put some distance between us before the sun set. After nightfall, the latest time for the wolf’s awakening would be during the peak of the full moon in the sky."Where are we going?""Putting some distance so we can strip down without worrying about being seen," I replied briefly. I was too focused on sensing the surroundings."How will you know there’s no danger without your wolf?""But I’ve got my wolf with me! The whole time!" I stopped for a moment, turned to her, and pointed to my nose, then my ears. "How do you think I found you so quickly?""I don’t get how you do that without being in wolf form. Isn’t that hard?""Remember when I asked you how I should teach you about this?""I remember. You said there was your way and the book way.""What you know says that you and your wolf are separate beings sharing the same body, but have you thought about the possibility that your wolf has been with you since

It was a long and exhausting hike. When I bought the tent and the rest of the camping gear, I had no idea how tiring it would be to cover this entire distance in my human form. Because of Lisa’s strength, I had thought the load would be light, but the distance felt countless times longer than when I traveled it in my wolf form. It wasn’t even midnight yet when I slipped out of my room, and even though I kept a fast pace, I felt like time was against me.Looks like you’re not getting any sleep tonight! my wolf commented.And I don’t need to, I replied. I had eaten dinner early and managed to sleep for a few hours before coming here. My next rest would probably be in the early hours of the following day since I’d be starting the journey with Annie before sunset.Still in my human form, I set everything down and inspected the area, using Lisa’s senses along with my flashlight. Finally, I stopped in front of the waterfall, staring at it for a few minutes. The water flow had already return

As Annie browsed through the options, she suddenly stopped, her gaze fixed on a particular dress. Her eyes lit up as she took it off the rack and held it against her body.“I love this one! It’s gorgeous!” she exclaimed excitedly.While she stepped into one of the fitting rooms, Lorraine stormed out of another, looking frustrated. She was wearing a dress but had to hold the side zipper and front in place to keep it from slipping. I couldn’t help but chuckle—a quiet laugh, but loud enough for her to hear.“What’s so funny?” she snapped, her eyes blazing with anger.“I didn’t say anything…” I turned my back on her, pretending I had nothing to do with it as I waited for Annie to come out. Lorraine marched over to the saleswoman, and even though she spoke in hushed tones, my sharp ears caught their conversation.“Is there any way to alter it?” Lorraine asked, her voice laced with desperation.“Impossible! If it just needed to be taken in, that’d be one thing, but letting it out…”Fashion

I wandered aimlessly beside Annie, stopping the moment my eyes landed on a watch store’s display window. There were various models on display, ranging from the simplest to the most sophisticated.“Do you think Maxsuel would like a watch as a present?” I asked Annie while scanning the models.“I think so,” she replied with a bright smile, following my gaze.“Wait here a sec. I already have one in mind—I won’t be long.”The brand was known for its quality, and its watches were stylish without being flashy. As soon as I saw one in the display, I felt the urge to go in and ask about it. Though it wasn’t the most expensive watch brand in the store, the price would probably startle Annie if she came in with me, so I preferred to go alone.“Good afternoon! How can I help you?” the saleswoman asked politely.“I’d like to buy a watch as a gift for a friend. Do you have any other models of the Omega brand besides the one in the display?”“Yes, I do!” She took out three different models and plac

The scent of wet earth filled the air as the rain intensified. There was nowhere to hide. I shifted into my human form and let the rain completely soak my bare body while watching the waterfall swell, its raging waters growing fiercer by the second.Do you think the rain will ruin Annie’s night? Lisa asked me, concerned.It was around 2 a.m. when I quietly slipped out of my bedroom window. My goal was to return to the waterfall to map out the route more precisely and find the best paths. Although the night was darker and cloudier than usual, there hadn’t been any sign of rain—until I got close to the waterfall and was suddenly caught in a downpour. I walked slowly across the terrain, scanning my surroundings."Better for the skies to pour now than on the big night," I said hopefully. It wouldn’t be as fun if we couldn’t bathe in the waterfall or howl at the moon during our girls' night, which would take place in two days, on a Thursday. Just to be safe, I decided I should stock up on
