"Were you a nail tech before you became part of the pack?",I ask when Spence leaves.I had held his fist the whole time and when Lizzy was done,he got up immediately and left the room.So much for caring."How did you know?",she says as she draws on a French curve on one of my toenails."Tell me more about it".Lizzy was a nail tech before she had decided to quit her job and join the pack.She had a boyfriend,whom she didn't know was a werewolf.Long story short,they had a spicy night and instead of giving her a hickey,he gave her a bite instead."What was his name?"Her hand freezes."Todd",she says and goes back to painting my nails."I'm sorry about that""It's fine.W take turns going into the city and buying supplies .Maybe one day you'll follow me"."That'd be great.Can I visit my mom too?".I thought she'd object so I waited for a strict reply."I don't see why not.You've trained so hard and can obviously control yourself"******Turns out it was Lizzy's turn to go get the groceries t
The ride back home was silent. I pondered about the moonstone as I ran my fingers through the fur on my hands which were slowly spreading to my shoulder and then my chest. Lizzy would glance at me and then speed up when she saw how thick my fur was getting. I looked at myself from the rearview mirror. I had started to grow ears at the top of my head and my nose was turning into a snout. My canines were growing long and sharp and my mouth was too small for it so it pierced my jaw. I had to keep my mouth open for the rest of the journey. By the time we got back, the lower half of my body was covered in fur and I had started to howl. Immediately Lizzy parks the car, I get out of the car and run back to the house. For a moment, I thought I'd get lost but the more turns I take, the closer the house gets. As I run, I notice the fur on my hands disappear and my voice returns to normal. All the other unusually large parts of me also return to normal. She was right about the moonstone."What
4 years earlier Yanni's POV It isn't exactly pleasant to wake up to darkness. You're already waking out of it only to meet it again. I open my mouth to scream but all that comes out is a small squeak. I move my hands and legs but they're limp and my body feels like it's burning up. Maybe I would just die here or I was already dead.A flash of light illuminates a tree that had been next to me the whole time. I was outside.I was alive.I move my legs and hands vigorously, trying to get the attention of whoever has the light. I throw in some squeaks too and include moving my head about,although it hurt so bad.I groan in pain.The ray of light gets brighter and is accompanied by a pair of approaching footsteps. But I was so exhausted. "What is it?" "It's a girl. I think she's dead" I wanted to scream that I wasn't dead. I was very much alive and needed help and the attention of a doctor.But I remember how much I wanted this.To die.I use the last of my strength to give a final squeak
YANNI'S POV"Which werewolf?", I ask. I was already a fan of fantasy novels so the term wasn't foreign to me."A wolf from another pack. Our rival to be exact", said the middle-aged man."They bit you to kill you wolf digs their fangs so far into your neck if they want to turn you", said the heavy makeup girl. She blew puffs of smoke into my face as she talked and I wouldn't dare complain. I touched my neck which was inches underneath the thick cast."Some werewolves prefer raw meat to food.", says the short-haired girl."Raw human meat""You had seemed to be healing already when we found you", said the auburn hair girl."It's a wonder they didn't eat you and a miracle that you're alive".She almost sounded sad that they hadn't found me dead: like she desired human meat too.Mike stands and stretches his hand towards me."I'm Mike", he says. I take his hand and shake it. The auburn girl did the same."Lizzy", she said.Like a chain reaction, everyone stretched their hands out for a handsha
YANNI'S POVSpence took me out of the shower and into the bathtub, never letting his lips leave mine. He turns on the tap and while it fills up, he straddles me and kisses my neck."Go on all fours", he says after he turns on the tap.I go on my hands and knees, waiting for what would happen next. I hear the rip of a condom."From the first time I saw you, all I could think about was touching you", he says as he fingers my asshole."Keep on talking", I moan."I just wanted to hold your boobs and finger you till you moan for me to stop", Spence whispers into my ear. I feel him press the tip of his penis into my ass."More", I groan."You're so sexy, " he says, pushing more of him inside me. He uses one of his hands to finger me, looking for my G-spot."You're my first time",I say and he pushes more of himself into me."You're so big"He pushes in more of it. He dips his hand in the water and keeps on fingering me."Spence".I feel his balls on my ass." I'm coming"He takes out his wet fin
I shouldn't have asked that question. I thought the silence that occurred between us would be broken by her telling the truth. But Sharon only scoffs. She got up and dusted her boots. It was a stupid move, her fingers got sticky with sap. When she realized, she stomped her boots on the dirt wildly and screamed. I watched her sadly as she slowly lost her mind, stomping and crying and screaming till she sat back down and sobbed. I felt sorry for her and draped my hands over her and put my lips to her ear. I sang a lullaby my mom had made up for me whenever I was a crying mess. Little girl, little girl Come to mommy's arms Don't be scared, I'm here With all our good luck charms Why do you fret so much? What happened to our silly dreams? If you want kisses, I've got a bunch And sunrays and moonbeams I sang softly, not wanting to startle Sharon or make her mad. Her breathing calmed down and soon her sobs were reduced to hushed whimpers and eventually, they stopped. She had fallen
I had gone to wash up and when I came back Lizzy was still in my room, in her nighties with a big bowl of chip and dip."Let's watch a movie", she says and shows me her phone with a big red N on it.I didn't see why not."Sure", I untied my nightrobe."When did you start liking girls?" Lizzy asks, putting a chip in her mouth.I pondered over her question as I rummaged through my wardrobe for nighties. I never really had the chance to explore my sexuality. I just lived my boring old life and assumed I liked boys. Nobody wanted to date me anyway."I don't know. You came up to me, asked for sex and I didn't see why not", I shrugged and put on a big t-shirt."I'm not so attractive anyway".Lizzy didn't believe what I said."Nobody's ever tried to hit on you?.But you're so sexy!" she gestured to my body and made figures with her hands like she was molding a vase in the shape of a figure 8.I dip a chip and nibble it."It's also because I never put myself out there".Lizzy pinches my chin and mo
Mike rubbed his chin and scratched the nape of his neck. "What?", I asked. He sat down on a huge tree stump."That's Jay alright" Of course, it was Jay. If it were Tristan he wouldn't have rescued me. Right? "When do you think I will be ready for the ritual?", I asked, joining Mike on the tree stump. "Well, your mark is already coming in so early. So I'd say in about 3 or 4 months if you train well" 4 months didn't sound so bad. Speaking of Tristan- "Shouldn't Angela be a permanent werewolf by now?".If she had been gone this long, she should've transformed without the help of the moonstone. "Not if she stayed in another pack's territory" "Wouldn't they kill her?" "Not all packs are like the Archers. Angela was from another pack. She must've gone back home".Mike's expression softens.That was surprising to hear, everyone had made it clear that packs would and always will hate each other. They had never mentioned anything about Angela coming from another pack or anything about
The door burst open with a deafening crash, splintering into pieces as the force of the blow sent us all reeling backward. Shadows poured into the room, dark and menacing figures silhouetted against the moonlight. The Archers had arrived."Stand your ground!" Sharon shouted, her voice cutting through the chaos. She let loose an arrow, the projectile whistling through the air and striking the first intruder square in the chest. The Archer fell, but more were right behind him.Jay swung his crossbow around, firing bolts with deadly accuracy, his expression calm and detached. Spence and Lizzy were armed and ready, fighting with a desperate ferocity. I gripped the dagger tightly, my heart pounding in my ears as I scanned the room for an opening."Camilla, stay close to me!" Sharon ordered, firing another arrow. She was a blur of motion, her precision and determination awe-inspiring.But the Archers were relentless. They advanced in waves, their dark cloaks billowing as they closed in. One
The cabin creaked with age, every sound amplified in the tense silence. We moved through the cramped space, each of us finding a corner to call our own for the night. Sharon and Jay were huddled near the window, whispering strategies and keeping watch. Spence was busy unpacking the last of our supplies, and Lizzy was arranging the clothes she had packed, trying to create some semblance of order in the chaos.I settled by the fireplace, its long-dead ashes a reminder of better times. I laid out the weapons in front of me: the bow, the arrows, the dagger. Each piece felt heavy with the weight of expectation. As I examined the intricate carvings on the dagger's hilt, I wondered about Sarah—the warrior who had wielded it before me. What had she faced? What fears had she overcome?"Camilla," Sharon's voice broke through my thoughts. I looked up to see her standing over me, her expression unreadable. "Can you come with me for a moment?"I nodded, setting the dagger down and following her to
"What is Andrea talking about?",I asked when the door to her room slammed shut."Do we have a second house?"But nobody was answering me.They were all nervously pacing the room."We do have a second home",Sharon said."But you wouldn't call it that""Are we really leaving?",Lizzy asked."None of this would've happened if you didn't bring him back",Spence said.Ever since Sharon revived him,he had been laying on the floor in a kind of subconscious trance."Excuse me?""You shouldn't have brought him back!.It's not like we got any answers and we can't erase his memories either!""At least I'm making an effort!.You all laze around and wait for the day they attack!"She goes on her knees to talk to Spence face to face.She pokes at his chest."Whether you like it or not,this was bound to happen.I'm trying my best to save us!!"As hurt and proud as she sounded,she was right.Since she shunned our original plan, no one else has made an effort.The situation was exactly as she described it; lazing
This time,I was going first.I chose so. Although my mark wasn't dark enough. I was taking a huge risk.I stood in the chalk circle and calmed my nerves as Mike got ready. Sharon stared at him with teary eyes the whole time, surprisingly leaning on Spence for support. He had his arm around her shoulder,The closer I looked the more I noticed their injuries healed.Maybe even the ones they have on their hearts. "Camilla,are you sure about this?" I looked at mike and nodded.He began. I closed my eyes and let whatever magic was present to take over.The slower chants made It a cool breeze but he faster he got,the more powerful.I felt my feet leave the ground and the space between them only increased. "Camilla,you need to calm down" This was happening.I was some werewolf part of some pack, and here I am going through a ritual to get actual powers. Even if I gain control of being a werewolf and I defeat these stupid Archers, My life will never be the same.This wasn't a dream. I floated
"Do you really think you're stronger than me?",the dark haired boy asked.He proceeded to spread his arms wide and slowly lift them up.And as he did the rocks above us started ascending.It triggered a hidden memory."Blade!"He looked surprised to hear that."How do you know my name?.I erased your memory for goodness sake!"He then points his arm to me and sends a rock flying in my direction.I brace myself for the impact.But I don't feel it.When I open my eyes,I see Sharon in front of me.Somehow,she had stopped the rock."Sharon-""Give me your knife",she says and places an open hand behind her.As soon as I placed the handle in her palm,it was like she dissapeared.She got to Blade at the speed of light before he could do anything and stabbed him in his shoulders.All the rocks fell to the ground as he fell.Sharon picked him up by the neck effortlessly as he groaned in pain."This is no blade.It's Todd",she scoffed.I remembered that Todd was Lizzy's ex.The one who turned her."Put
The next few days were hell on earth. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't eat. I couldn't even think straight. Everything, every move, and every action I took reminded me of her. Her short curly hair.Her tan skin.Even her claws. Sometimes I'd hurt myself, just so I could feel her presence. Her absence was making me go crazy. I couldn't live without her. And Jay was making it worse. Every passing moment I'd stare at his pocket, wishing it was there and it would fall out any moment.I couldn't look for Angela without the moonstone.I also couldn't leave them here without the moonstone. Staying too far away from it could cause the rest to stay in their werewolf form forever. But at the risk of my sanity? After a week of terror, I finally knew what to do .***** "Hey" It had been a long day of hunting in the forest. Everyone but me had gone deep into the forest to train, they promised they'd also look for Angela Maybe the rest didn't know it. but Jay had cravings. For carcass. Sometimes I
TRISTAN'S POVThe next 3 days passed like a breeze. They drooled into each other to become one long day or at least that's how it felt. Every morning,I would wake up and go straight to Angela's room just to stare at her and hope that she was breathing because I would never forgive myself if anything were to happen to her.Sometimes I'd hold her hand so hard that her claws dig into my skin and I bleed out. I miss her so much that I even miss when she hurts me. If she were to wake up now and dig her claws into me, I'd be fine. As long as she was alive.Not a single moment passed that I didn't replay how I pushed her to the wall in my head.The guilt hurt and it was slowly eating me up and all everyone could do was blame me.******"She's gone!"Today was the fourth day, the day she was supposed to wake up and I had spent almost all night by her side in case she woke up so I could be the first person she saw. Someone must've dragged me to my room because I didn't remember falling asleep t
Tristan's POV I pushed the vase to the floor. Angela shrieked and covered her ears as she crouched in a corner. I dragged her by the collar so we could see eye-to-eye.If she thought she could get out of this with one of her pity parties,she was so wrong. "What do you mean?",I asked again,shaking her while I spaced my words so she could hear them clearly She held my fist with both of her hands,trying to pry them off her collar.She dug her nails into my hands till they bled.I hissed and slammed her on the wall .She trembled like a coward in my hands.Her eyes held a silent plea,but I wasn't having it.Not after what she did to me. "Talk,bitch!",I threw her to the table.Her back and her head slammed the dressing table with a loud smash and she fell to the floor with closed eyes.She was probably acting.I used the tip of my sneakers to push her."Get up.I'm not falling for that",but she refused.She lay there with her face to the floor.My anger was waning and it was slowly turning to fear
Jay's hands slid to my ass and he groped me.I did a little jump and wrapped my legs around him.He pushed me higher with my ass so that my knees would be at his waist.I held him tighter with my knees and hands,never allowing my lips to leave his.He carried me to the dining room and set me on the table,like I was precious porcelain.He slowly dipped his hands into my panties till he touched my bare butt.I sat up straight so he could dip lower till he had both of his hands on my butt cheeks.He rubbed and squeezed and it turned me on.He took his hand out of my butt and started lifting the hem of my shirt.He lifts it till it got to the cup of my bra then he looked at me,as if for permission.I nod a little then vigorously as I remember Lizzy's lips on mine last night.The fear in her eyes that her eyelids hid from me.I didn't know what we were but it was more than just people who had sex for a release.I felt something last night and it was different.But I shouldn't be thinking about that now
