Chapter 6: Discovering Powers

"How many are we talking about?" Selena asked, running after Darius and the twins.

"I'm not quite sure. I believe there are five of ours there, but I don't know how many of them."

"Got it!"

They ran for a few minutes inside the forest until they were able to see the packs battling.

Selena could instantly recognize the five wolves from her pack, but they were outnumbered. For what she could count from that distance, there were at least eight wolves from the rival pack.

She looked at Darius, but he was already on the way to the fight, already turned into his wolf shape. The twins did the same, and Selena followed them, suddenly feeling more powerful. She always felt great as a wolf.

Her fur was dark black like her hair and her eyes yellow like the sun. She felt her senses getting more sharp. She could sense the scent of each wolf distinctly and see even better.

She gained speed and went in the direction of two enemy wolves that were unjustly beating one of hers. She grabbed one of them through his neck with her teeth and tossed him away. One of the twins came beside her and fought the other, engaging themselves in some angry battle.

Selena turned to see what was happening with the others.

The enemy pack didn't seem to be very organized, if she could put it like that. They seemed to be a band of rogue wolves, that always appeared to cause trouble and mess up with others. Selena had never seen them around though.

She got a little deeper into the woods, planning her next move. She had a glimpse of Darius and the other twin fighting three of the rogue wolves, but they didn't seem to be needing her help.

That's when she saw one wolf from her pack basically dead, and the enemy wolf didn't seem to care about that. He continued to beat and bite her pack member, even though he was not responding anymore.

Selena's blood boiled in anger and she roared so loud, that the brownish wolf stopped his endless beating and looked at her.

She was trembling with fury and was starting to feel some strange force inside her, something very unfamiliar.

It was like she was getting an electric shock and a warm feeling on her stomach, all at the same time. The longer she stared at the enemy wolf, the bigger and stronger that feeling became.

The wolf started to walk towards her, and Selena roared again, taking an impulse on the ground and jumping on him. She grabbed him, and they rolled together for a few seconds, until they knocked on a tree and got separated from each other.

At that time, her whole body was shivering and it was starting to get hard for her to stand firmly. She shook her head a few times, trying to stay concentrated and gather strength to attack again.

The wolf looked at her, confused as why she stopped making a move against him. Selena took a few steps in his direction, trying to get closer to him.

She felt like she could take down more than one wolf at once, if she was able to get hold of herself. She had never felt so mighty in her life.

But at the same time, she couldn't understand how to control that feeling, how to use that power properly. Specially with an enemy looking at her so close, able to kill her at any moment.

What would she do now? She couldn't stand still, her head was dizzy and she didn't know how to approach the enemy without falling with her face on the ground.

He would kill her for sure. It didn't seem to have anyone around to help her either. She could hear some growls and knocks far from where they were, but she couldn't even ask for help. She was numb.

The brownish wolf made a sound, that looked like a mock to Selena, and she wanted to kill him. She was frustrated because she didn't know what to do, and she hated to lose control. Specially in a fight.

The wolf took advantage of her confusion and made a move, jumping on her and tossing her a few feet away. She fell on the soil with a loud boom. She cringed in pain, praying that she could regain control of her senses and her body soon.

Selena got on her four paws again, just in time to dodge the wolf's blow. The wolf, surprised by her sudden response, got a bit distracted. Selena gathered some strength and hit him on his back, throwing him miles away.

She couldn't believe how far he went. She didn't expect that her move would make him go so far. Her strike was much more strong than usual. She was never able to fight like that.

But at that same moment, she started to feel dizzy and out of control again.

The wolf, she didn't know how, was able to recover from the strike and came back running towards her. With her mind out of the scene, he continued to run, faster and faster, and threw her against the tree trunk behind her.

Selena's back bumped into the tree and she felt a very sharping pain on the back of her head.

She could sense the wolf getting closer, but couldn't move.

"Selena! Selena!" she heard a distant voice inside her head calling her, but she couldn't respond.

The wolf made one last move, bitting her skin so strongly that she felt unconscious on the floor.

    Selena opened her eyes with some difficulty, feeling her whole body ache. At first, she could only look at the ceiling, feeling some sort of familiarity with the place. It seemed to be her grandmother's living room. She also realized that the smell of medicines that made her wake up came from her grandmother, that was beside her. "Ah, you're finally awake!" her Grandma said, smiling at her. "I thought you wouldn't wake up anymore.""What is this smell?" Selena frowned. "I'm cleaning your wounds. It's not pretty." Grandma answered.Selena tried to sit on the bed, but her grandmother slapped her arm and commanded her to stay laid down.Not that she would be able to, since with just that little movement, she felt so much pain that almost fainted."Ah!" Selena moaned. "It's hurting like hell!""Don't say that!" Grandma protested. "I was hoping you could tell me what happened. No one could tell me how you got in this state."Selena's mind was spinning while she tried to remember anything

    "Lord Shane! Lord Shane!" a dark-haired guy came shouting at a tall and serious man that was contemplating the moon through the window, with the hands on his pockets.They were inside of an old and abandoned warehouse outside of the city, where their pack lived.Lord Shane was their leader and they were a band of rogue wolves that thought they were better and stronger than most of the other wolves. They didn't care about any rules and always did what they wanted.Shane was a young man with blonde hair, green eyes and a face full of scars. His presence was terrifying and it was almost like the place got colder every time he arrived.They always liked to terrorize and put up a fight with other packs at the city for no reason."Why are you shouting? Didn't I tell you that I hate when you shout?" Shane closed his eyes for a moment before turning to the man in front of him. "What is it?" The young man seemed so excited, that he didn't seem to care that Shane looked very angry with the inte

    Selena woke up feeling much better, with no more bruises or broken bones. She took a very cold shower to scare away the laziness from her sore body. 
While washing her hair and lathering all the ointment off of her skin, Selena took deep breaths to forget about the nightmare she was living at home.
She was still very upset about the whole conversation she had with her father on the previous night. 
She also remembered the night at the bar. And Lucas. For a moment, she thought that it had all been a bad dream. With the battle, she was able to take him off of her mind for a while. But now she would have to face him at college. Although she thought that maybe it would be easy to avoid him, since she had never seen him there before. However, there was also Robbie.She left without talking to him. Would he be upset with her? She owed him an apology, but wasn't ready to do it yet. She was still trying to figure out what she felt about Lucas.She arrived at college and went straight to

    Selena didn't have much time to think. She suddenly saw herself facing four wolves at the end of the street. She could instantly recognize the wolf that had attacked her on the forest the other day. It was his smell that Selena felt the whole day after all."What the hell do you want from me? Are you not satisfied yet?" she shouted to the brownish wolf that was coming near her slowly, followed by the others.Selena was still on her human form.She considered turning her back and running to where she came from, but that would attract them to Maddie's house, and she didn't want that.She wouldn't be able to handle four wolves by herself, specially not in a human form. In any scenario, she was screwed. She would have to shift into a wolf, because they would eat her alive if she remained like that. Selena took a few steps back and turned herself into a big black wolf with yellow eyes. The wolves didn't seem to be impressed by her though.She started to feel the shivering slightly growing

  • Under the Full Moon   Chapter 11: Grandma Knows Something

    Selena ran back home when she saw that the wolves were no longer able to follow her. Since the mysterious white wolf helped her, she found the chance to escape.She calmed herself down and when she was near her home and felt safe, she shifted back to her human form.She had to tell her grandmother what had happened. Maybe she could explain what Selena had just experienced, because she had no idea."Grandma! Grandma! Are you home?" she shouted, opening the door at her grandmother's home. She found Grandma at the kitchen, mixing something at the pot on the stove. The smell was incredible, but Selena was too agitated to ask what it was."What happened?" her grandmother asked, looking at her. "You don't look fine. It seems like you saw a ghost." Selena took deep breaths to recover from the running before she started to talk."Something happened to me on the way home. I was leaving Maddie's house when I was ambushed by four wolves." Selena sat in one of the chairs at the kitchen, while h

    Selena passed the whole morning thinking about the ambush. She was starting to get suspicious of everything and everyone. Why would someone try to ambush her? Did it have something to do with her powers? Her grandmother insisted that she kept that a secret, which made a lot of sense, since they were a threat even for Selena herself.While leaving class, Selena had to stop at the library to grab some books, and Maddie had to go home in a hurry because she had a job interview scheduled.Selena was left alone and while she went outside of the building checking the books she had just gotten, she didn't see when someone stopped in front of her.It was Robbie, and she almost bumped into him, if she hadn't gotten her head up in time."Oh, I'm sorry! I was distracted and didn't see you there." she apologized, getting herself together after the scare."It's ok, actually I shouldn't stop in front of you like that. " Robbie said with a smile. " Anyway… If I didn't know better, I'd think you're

    Selena arrived at the Treehouse Bar and found Robbie, Maddie and William right away. She sat at the table with them and ordered a beer, still a little uncomfortable with the whole situation.But just when she was starting to get a bit more relaxed, the most unexpected thing happened.She was seated inside the bar facing the door, and when she lifted her head, she had to blink twice to make sure she wasn't imagining things.That was no one other than Lucas himself entering the place. And even worst than him being there, was the fact that he wasn't alone.He had a beautiful blonde girl beside him. And she was also a werewolf, from what Selena could tell. Selena's guts shrunk in anger, surprising even herself. Why would she bother if Lucas was with someone else?She never imagined something like that would make her feel those type of feelings."Hey, look! It's Lucas and Demi." William said loudly, with his hand already up, waving to the newcomers.Selena cursed inside her head.Lucas and

    Selena shook her head, but that was not a smart move. Since she had already drunk a lot of beers, the shaking just made her head even more dizzy.She couldn't fall for him. She didn't even know him well. And he was a jerk. How could she fall in love with someone like him?While thinking about that, Selena looked at herself in the mirror and fixed her hair. It was getting hard to have control over her actions, and specially over her tongue.If Lucas continued to tease her, she was afraid that she would give him some sharp answers in front of everyone.She left the bathroom looking down, taking deep breaths to sober up. And then she bumped into something. Or better yet, someone.Before she had the chance to lift her head, she already knew who that was. That man fragrance and that fresh morning smell were unmistakable. She couldn't take it off of her mind for days now."I thought you had run away again." his voice was low, but at the same time, strong enough for her to hear. The sentence

    They were staring at the sky for a while now, just examining the clouds and listening to the sound of the waves bursting on the shore.Selena and Lucas had gone inside to shower and put warm clothes since the weather was getting colder outside. Then, Lucas grabbed a bottle of wine and some food while Selena placed a towel on the sand so they could have a night picnic. Selena was still on cloud nine after the incredible day they had. It was exactly what she needed in life at that moment.Their lives were just beginning and they had a promising future ahead of them."Hey, why is it that every time I leave you alone you seem to get into a sort of interior analysis?" Lucas said as he got back with the wine and the food.Selena smiled and helped him by serving the wine into the glasses.They made a toast as Selena thought about what to answer him.Not that she had much to say, but it was starting to be a habit of hers to think about the future lately."I was just thinking about our future

Just being at each other's presence was more than enough.The sun was almost setting when Lucas told Selena about what had happened at the wedding party.Selena's jaw was widely opened and she forgot to breath for a moment."You saw… your mom?" she stuttered.Lucas nodded."Is that even possible?" she continued."I mean, I thought the same thing, but apparently it is. I mean, she did came here once right. Otherwise I wouldn't have been born." he said.Selena slapped his arm slightly."You know what I meant." she rolled her eyes.Lucas laughed

    It took Lucas a few more minutes to pull himself together and go back to the party.It still felt like a dream that he had seen his mother, but he had to go back to his wedding.Selena should be looking for him.He went back to the house and bumped into someone on the way out."Hey, Lucas! We were looking for you." It was Maddie. The girl was already blushed from so many margaritas she had drank. "Hey! What happened? Why were you looking for me?" he asked nonchalantly."Well, we need the groom to cut the cake, you know? It is your wedding after all." the girl said annoyed but smiling. "Come on, Selena will kill us if we take too long." Maddie grabbed him by his hand and pulled Lucas outside to where the party was still going strong.He saw Selena at a distance looking at him with worried and curious eyes. She was actually really cute when she acted like that.Lucas saw her coming towards him with her arms crossed and trying to look angrier than she actually was."Where were you? I s

    Lucas blinked a few times, trying to make sure he wasn't imagining anything, after all, he had some drinks during the night.Maybe the day was so overwhelming, that his brain was making things up. It couldn't be what he thought it was.Specially because he had never had an experience like that during his whole life. So why now?But as much as he tried to ignore that light, something inside him kept bothering him. He needed to check.Selena was shooting some glances at him during the dance, but he tried to pretend everything was ok.He didn't want to make her worried at that night. It was their wedding after all. And he wouldn't say something like that if he wasn't sure.She would probably think he was crazy.The music ended and Maddie came to say something to Selena, and Lucas thanked the girl inside his head.He needed a minute for himself, but that seemed to be an impossible mission at that crowded place."Baby, I'll go to the bathroom real quick. I'll be right back." he gave Selena

    Lucas couldn't stand still during the whole day.He woke up early to finish some things before the ceremony, but as soon as he got back to the village and saw everyone organizing the place, the reality hit him.He would get married. To Selena, what was even more unbelievable.How could he be so lucky? He thought he would never be able to answer that question.It pissed him off that he couldn't see the girl until the end of the day, and not being able to enter the house made him even more anxious.He saw the night fall and the full moon appear very high in the sky, but the hours seemed to stop when the wedding hour was getting closer.He showered and got ready, and when he finally saw himself waiting for Selena at the end of that aisle, his heart was clearly trying to make a prank on him.He could hear his blood being pumped inside his veins, and as each minute passed without Selena appearing, all sort of thoughts came to his mind.She wouldn't give up. Right? She couldn't.She was so e

    Selena collapsed on the couch. Grandma had never really talked so openly about her mother. Actually, that was a subject rarely brought up in front of Selena even since she was born.She could count of her fingers the times she was able to know more about her mother in a conversation. So the fact that Grandma wanted to give her something from her mother took her off guard."What do you mean, Grandma?" Selena asked with a low voice.Her hands were shaking when Grandma offered her a tiny velvet jewelry bag. She took the little bag from Cora's hand, not able to think properly."Your mother gave this to me before she gave birth to you. It was like she knew something was going to happen to her." Selena took her eyes away from the bag and looked at Grandma."What do you mean?""A few hours before she went into labor, she called me in her room and gave me this. She said that if something happened to her, she wanted you to get this on your wedding day." Selena could feel her tears coming ba

    Selena and Maddie spent the whole day deciding the decoration, the food, the music, the dress, and all the stuff needed for the ceremony.The dress would take a little more time to be prepared, and Selena called Grandma during some time of that day, so she could ask if it was viable to do what she and Maddie thought.Grandma said it was a piece of cake for her, since she loved to sew and she would be more than honored to be the one that made her grandmother's wedding dress.Maddie stayed there for a few days, finishing everything up, and when Selena realized, it was already the day of the wedding.And she couldn't be feeling more nervous.Lucas had gone out really early that morning to grab some last stuff for the party, so when Selena woke up, he wasn't in the house anymore.Maddie was going to arrive right after lunch, so Selena still had some time alone to think about what that day meant to her.She could not believe she was marrying Lucas.

    After a few days, Selena was feeling much more relieved since the construction had finally been finalized. She and Lucas arranged to bring his pack at once, so they could accommodate and get used to their new lives. It took a few more days for everyone to be placed in their homes, tidy everything up and get acquaintance with the new members of the pack. And then Selena allowed herself to think about the wedding. That was consuming a lot of her time now, because she had to think of every single detail.Lucas did help when she asked, but she didn't think he would want to chose what type of flowers would match better with her dress.So she let the essential questions to him. For the rest, she invited Maddie to help.One morning, Selena woke up feeling very renewed and excited, so she grabbed her phone right after breakfast and called Maddie.The girl picked up after just one beep."What's up, girl?" she said lively."I'm going to pick you up now. So be ready in fifteen minutes." Selena

    Selena was about to answer him, but Lucas grabbed her lower lip with his teeth and invaded her mouth with his tongue, involving their tongues in a very seductive dance.Selena felt her wrists being loosen as Lucas lowered his hand to her waist and placed the other behind her head, intertwining his fingers on her hair.So she lifted her arms and pulled him against her, so she could feel the weight of his body on top of her. Even though he was heavy, she liked to feel him all over her. It gave her a sense of protection, but domination at the same time, like he was making a statement that her body belonged to him and no one else.She bit his lip slowly and provocatively, making space for them to breath. Lucas' hand was all over her body, and Selena was losing her mind with his movements.She grabbed the hem of his shirt and pulled it up, taking it off and tossing it somewhere. She was always amazed every time she saw him without a shirt. His abs were so defined, and she loved to run her
