Chapter 9

Lucas' POV:

As I felt the moon rise high into the sky, a familiar sensation started to stir within me. It's a feeling that's hard to describe, like an itch that needs to be scratched, a restlessness that demands release. I know what's coming, and there's nothing I can do to stop it.

My body began to convulse, my bones cracking and snapping as they reshape themselves into a different form. It's an excruciating pain, one that I've grown used to over the years, but it never gets any easier. I grit my teeth and try to hold back the howl that's building in my throat.

My muscles bulge, and fur sprouts all over my body. It's like wearing a suit made of needles, but I can't help but feel a sense of satisfaction as I feel the transformation complete. The wolf inside me is free, and I am now one with the night.

My senses were heightened, and the world seemed to come alive around me. I can smell the nearby prey, feel the dampness of the grass beneath my paws, and hear the rustling of the leaves in the wind. It's a primal feeling, one that's hard to put into words.

I take off into the woods, my powerful legs propelling me forward with incredible speed. It's a liberating feeling, one that I can never experience in my human form.

After a while, I noticed a familiar figure coming toward me. It was on all fours and ran at a very fast speed. As it got closer, the figure transformed into a naked human form. It was Matilda. She had a beautiful hourglass figure with her round breasts and her hard nipples jutting out, accentuating her sexy, irresistible body.

As she approached me, seductively biting her lower lip, I shifted back to my human form. My manhood was hardened at the sight of Matilda's naked body. I swiftly walked up to her, hugging her bare body and wrapping my hands at the swell behind her back. Her ass was firm and soft to the touch. Damn, she's just perfect!

As I crashed my lips against hers, parting her lips open with my tongue and drowning in the pleasure that her lips offered, I could feel her hands run over my bulge. I swallowed hard and stiffened as she began to use her hand to make a swirling movement around my cock.

I kissed her hard, exploring her mouth with my tongue and when she began to gasp for breath, I withdrew from her lips and kissed my way down to her firm nipples. As I sucked on her breast, while cupping the other, I heard her stifle a moan. Slowly I began to trace my finger down her abdomen and to her core. She was slimy wet and slipping my index finger into her, she let out a loud moan. I could see her biting her lower lip as she tilted her head backward in utmost ecstasy.

"Damn Lucas, fuck me. Get your fucking cock inside me you motherfucker" she swore amidst moan.

I was enjoying the torture I gave her as I swirled my tongue on her nipples and kept massaging her core with my fingers, I could her whisper my name.

"How badly do you want me inside of you" I whispered into her ear, nibbling her earlobe.

"Do you want to torture me or you wanna get down on me" she gasped, arching her hips wider to give me a seamless entrance into her.

In a swift move, I laid her down on the damp grass and got on top of her. Kissing her lips slowly and leaving feathery kisses on her nipples and neck, I plunged my dick into her.

"Fuck!" She moaned loudly. I loved the sound of her voice.

In and out, I moved inside her in a rhythmic motion. My hard cock rammed into her slimy core and swam in her insides. She cried my name as she tugged on my arms, raising her legs wider to give me even more entrance. It felt like bliss and a surge of pleasure ricocheted through my veins as I felt my ejaculation coming. A bolt of inexplicable excitement raced through my veins as I felt a release.

Matilda was on birth control pills so I didn't have to bother about pregnancy.

"Oh fuck, I needed this after today's bore," she said, trying to catch her breath.

I laid down beside her, my breath coming in short rasps.

"You saw her, didn't you?" I asked, running my fingers slowly over her thighs.

"Yeah, I don't like her. She seems fragile but I just don't like the aura that she exudes" Matilda turned to meet my gaze.

"Well, I think it's time to get dressed. It'll start raining soon" Matilda said, standing up and dusting her body. She brought out a chiffon dress from the branch of a tree.

"Don't tell me you hid a dress in the tree" I asked with a bewildered look on my face.

"You don't expect me to go back home naked, do you?" She retorted, rolling her eyes as she pointed at the piece of my shredded clothes.

Crap! I forgot to bring a new set of clothes since I left the palace in a rush. It was already late and the only option was to go home naked.

Matilda kissed me goodnight and disappeared into the shadows. Shifting back into my wolf form, I ran through the woods till I got to the palace walls.

"I can't go into the palace naked," I thought to myself. Taking a quick scan to know if anyone was watching, I climbed the palace wall and jumped right into the garden.

I shifted back to my human form and began to make my way to my room, hiding behind the hedges to avoid being seen by the palace servants. I stopped in my tracks when I saw a room light up and a slim figure walk up to the window of the room. She drew the curtain open and looked around the garden. I quickly ducked to avoid being caught.

After a few minutes of looking to and fro, the figure closed the curtain and turned off the lights. I heaved a sigh of relief and continued my journey but almost immediately, I heard the palace doors open quietly. I could see the slim figure walking stealthily to the garden, I could make out her features as she sat on one of the stone benches, close to the hedge where I hid.

It was Veronica.

She sat down and took in three deep breaths, looking around the garden leisurely as though she'd never seen something that beautiful in her life. I knew I couldn't hide behind the hedges anymore as the cold night air whipped my skin mercilessly.

Impulsively, I began walking towards her. I could see the terror clearly written on her face as I strode to where she sat.

"Hi, I'm Lucas," I said, flashing her a bright smile as I stretched out my hand.

She froze for a minute before quickly turning away her face. I could hear her heartbeat rise.

"You've never seen a naked man before?" I questioned, bending over and peering into her face.

"Please go away", her voice was mild and soothing.

"And what if I don't?" I teased.

"Then I might regret what I'll do next," she said and in one swift motion, she turned around and crushed her lips into mine.

I froze instantly, my eyes bulging in shock. I could hear her heart beating very fast or maybe I was mistaken. It was my heart racing wildly.

"My lady, I think you have to—"

The statement was interrupted by a short gasp. The voice was strikingly familiar.

Immediately, I tore my lips away from Veronica's and turned in the direction of the voice. Standing there with her eyes wide open and her palms covering her mouth was Beatrice.

She saw everything.
