I open my eyes slowly feeling a throbbing pain pulsating from my neck and radiating throughout my body . A wave of emotions wash over me , hitting me like a brick and trying to drown me in them . Satisfaction , love , admiration .

I turn to my side and notice that Jace was already awake and was staring at me . It was his emotions .

I want to be mad but his emotions weren't letting me . I wonder if there was a way I could block them out .

" I'm sorry about that . " He admits but he doesn't look the slightest bit of guilty , he has the widest smile on his face so much that the corner of his eyes are crinkling .

" Do you know what you've done ? " I ask dryly in disbelief . I put my hand against my neck and flinch at the pain , I withdraw it and see some residual blood on my hand . It hasn't healed yet . I shift on my weight and flinch once more . Everything from below my waist till my knees is sore.

" You won't lose your identity . I made sure of that

    " Didn't you say you opened the box with your blood ? " Jace questioned , brooding his forehead as he searches his memories .I nod .Then it hits me ." I'm an idiot . "If the box was opened with my blood then why wouldn't the paper unravel it's truth in the same way ? I wonder if I would have thought about it if Jace hadn't brought it up . I honestly feel like I am getting more careless as every single day passes .I grab the paper from Alec along with the knife placed on the coffee table .For some reason I feel myself sweating and get the urge to take my shirt off so I could cool down my warm body . It's really strange because I've been cold since I've turned and suddenly I feel warm ." Don't . You're not feeling well . " Jace complains as if he read my thoughts and I only roll my eyes in response . It was just a simple cut , I don't see how that would make a difference , besides at least it would heal fast .I pres

    " Seriously , you want me to be in bed all day ? I'll die from boredom . " I complain .He throws the TV remote at me and I catch it easily ." I'll go get some medicine . You , stay put . " He threatens with a side eye before leaving .Stay put ? He words it like I'm a dog . Well , I don't entirely mind . Dogs are really cute and I would want one if I had a stable home where I was sure he'd be safe . Keeping animals in a vampire lair isn't exactly the best idea , not because they would drink or kill them . Just because dogs are the warmest animals and they don't deserve to be around cold people .I've heard that after transitioning into a vampire , you start losing your feelings until eventually you don't care about anything anymore . I'm sure that's a partial lie . You definitely feel , just not to the intensity that you felt before . You don't care as much about what's right or wrong , you don't bother with a human's pain , nor do you dare to sympathis

  • Just a bite   The Truth

    " Turning ? " Jace questions in disbelief as if he couldn't comprehend the sentence ." What do you mean ? " I ask .It was progressively worsening , I could feel beads of sweat form on my forehead and my muscles were aching . It's like cramps after a deadly workout where you tried to do everything at once in one day and failed resulting in pain that wouldn't let you move for days ." You're turning into a wolf . " He words his sentence slowly seemingly concerned of our reaction .He has to be joking right ? There's no way I would be turning into a wolf . The thought alone is so ridiculous I can't fathom even considering it in reality . Vampires can't turn into wolves !" If you don't know what's wrong with me then you don't have to joke about it . " I pull the covers off of me since it was getting too warm for me to stay under them . I was sweating like crazy . All I wanted to do was to go take a shower . A cold one to get rid of this heat and the

    I scream as my arm twists in the other direction , possibly breaking and adjusting my elbow joint to match a wolf's . In my whole life , I have never felt such excruciating pain before . Sure there were moments that were particularly hard to bear but this ..I wanted to die than endure another second of it ." You don't have to feel it . " I tell him painfully with tears in my eyes . The searing burn and throb of a fracture made me drop to the ground and pant as my heart beats hard enough to rip out of my chest .Jace was flinching with my every move , every wave of pain caused him to grunt and grit his teeth . Why was he not putting up the wall ? Just because I'm going through it doesn't mean he has to as well . He's already done this before , there's no reason for him to experience such unpleasantness ( such an understatement ) twice ." You'll be okay , just breathe through it . You'll be okay . " he whispers lovingly in my ear , supporting my battered

    I paw at him to gain his attention . How do I tell him that I want to turn back ? He looks at me and raises his eyebrow .I try to feel the desire to turn back to my human self , hoping that he would feel it too and would let me know how . As expected , he hadn't put up a wall and realised almost immediately what I meant . I wonder if Jace and I will be able to communicate through mild link just like Alec and Michael . It seems fun , intruiging and more than anything a different sort of connection that I'd like to try out ." Step by step you need to focus on your limbs and visualise them returning to normal . Will it with your strength . " he explains , still stroking my fur . I try to do as he says and he gets up from the ground , walking over to a nearby tree . I was too busy to notice until he dropped the bag in front of me which contained presumably my clothes .Following his instructions , it doesn't take long before I slowly return to my original body .

    " Are you sure you want to go back ? " he asks ."Jace , I can't be stuck in here and hide forever . I'll have to go out at some point , besides , it's been a few days and I'm much better at controlling it now . "It was true that the slight temper issues brought on by the werewolf transition definitely ended up in me having a more difficult time with controlling my thirst than before but I was managing . I swear I was . And I was getting really bored hanging around in this hotel all day . If I'm going to be honest , being bored is a worse combination anyway so it's a better idea for me to return .This way I could finally have some distractions and also something to do instead of sitting around watching TV or playing some pool . It could be good in curbing my urges . Shouldn't I take my willpower out for a test drive ?" I'm not so sure about that .

    " You're crushing her . Loosen up . " Jace warns as Kayla practically squishes me to death . Perhaps if it was my human self , I'd be choking for air right now but since I have grown much stronger over the span of the past few days , it actually doesn't bother me in the slightest . Jace was probably concerned that I'd suddenly be bombarded with blood lust and I would end up tearing her apart .

  • Just a bite   Epilogue

    " They are healing up nicely " the pack doctor tells me and I sigh with relief . I'm glad we decided to ask a neighbouring pack doctor for help ( Alpha Reiner ) . Apparently , Dianna .. I mean , Mom , was successful in convincing him after all and he doesn't seem to have a problem with her meeting me anymore as long as she doesn't come close to Dracula in the slightest . The pack doctor was a good call , those injuries were not my cup of tea at all . Michael was pacing around outside the room the whole time . The guilt was eating him alive . He was with Michelle at the time and his phone was outside their room . I don't blame him and I'm honestly glad that he wasn't there when it happened . Because then what happened to Alec could have happened to him as well . I blame myself for what happened to Alec . I was the one who called him , I should have just went myself without him . I'm the reason he's human now . ' Thank you . ' he had told me .

    I see Noah entering the cottage as he goes to take a seat on the living room couch ." How did you frame her ? " I question ." It isn't hard for a powerful witch to use an element . " she says simply as she gets up and puts the leftover tea in the sink. " Enough with the questions .. a little birdie told me that you have exactly what I'm looking for . "I look away ." What are you talking about ? " I ask innocently ." Aren't we past pretending ? The channeling device , I know you have it . I saw it . With great power , you get a fraction of seer like abilities , if you know how to use them " she purses her lips , making her slight wrinkles more evident than they were before ." I have no clue what you are referring to . " I shrug . " I think we are done here . " I stand up slowly .What would happen if she used the dagger to steal Jace's essence . Would he die ?" Sit down .

    " Since when ? " I questioned her as I stood a good few feet away from the bed ." The beginning . " she admits ." You were a lackey for my mother since the moment you met us ? " I ask incredulously ." Of course not . It was the next day that your mother approached me . I knew about the existence of supernatural beings , I just didn't know that you were one . "" Until she told you and asked you to spy on me . " I sigh and put my hands on the temples of my cheek in disbelief . This whole time then , our friendship was fake . She didn't care about me , she was just doing her job ." I needed the money for my family . " she says quietly ." I don't care anymore , Kayla . It's fine .
