All Chapters of Therianthrope: A New Kind of Curse: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

James looked at the men before him; the werewolves were bound around their wrists with silver laced chains so they could not break free and the humans with normal handcuffs. All of them were on their knees in a straight line; there were a total of five werewolves and three humans.James kept his shoulders back in a rigid, erect position, glaring down on them, hoping to appear intimidating, and Tony was doing the same at his left. Andrew walked in front of them with an angry expression that James, if he didn’t know him better, would consider hateful. Doctor Thompson stood not far behind the alpha, glaring at all of them with an angry expression as well.He watched as Andrew began his speech to the werewolves. He started out kindly, promising that they would receive the highest level of mercy if they cooperated with him. James was sure some were about to speak, but something seemed to keep them quiet. The alpha let his disappointme

He could’ve found her and taken her home, James reasoned. With one final deep calming breath, he ran back towards the alpha’s house as quick as he could. “Alpha, we have to talk,” James demanded as soon as he saw Andrew. The alpha gave him a worried look.“What is it?” Tony asked, having overheard James. Before he could answer, Chris came out of the woods and walked towards them.“Alpha, we have searched everywhere the doctor told us too and still no sign of Lily or anything out of the ordinary. What do you want us to do now?” He asked, and Andrew looked at him, confused.“Why aren’t you asking, Xavier? I left him in charge,” the alpha told the younger werewolf.“I haven’t seen the doc since he

Xavier looked down at Lily with something that looked almost like admiration. “You are something special, you know that? Not only are you intelligent, attractive, but incredibly strong. You keep getting up no matter how many times you get knocked down. Your parents neglected you and you had to climb out your own bedroom window in the dead of night to escape some of their more unmoral guests,” he started, and she looked at him in shock.She told no one about the men that would creep into her bedroom during those parties that her biological parents had thrown, except Andrew. “Yes, the alpha told me the story. Many people become hateful, bitter creatures or timid, fearful ones with experiences like that, but not you. You fearlessly faced Kyle, even though he could have killed you more easily than you can imagine. I forced you to change into one of us and yet you have embraced what you’

“Please,” Lily said, her voice coming out in pants as her eyes snapped open, looking at Andrew. James stared at her eyes; they weren’t the same color anymore. Her once brown eyes were now a golden brown and outside the iris was a thin blood red ring. What did that mean? His eyes were never like that.“Make it stop, please,” she pleaded, and Andrew gave her a helpless look. “Kill me,” she whispered and James felt those words stab him and by the look on Andrew’s face, he felt the same way. The alpha pulled her against him as she resumed screaming.“We’re too late, aren’t we?” Chris asked, his face looking pasty and pale. James nodded; his voice seemed trapped in his throat.“Yes, she is going through the change now. It’s like being injected with acid that starts eating at your insides, which are set on fire. Your skin

It was everywhere; no matter where Lily turned, blood was everywhere. It oozed from the walls; it flooded the floor, threatening to drown her. Lily ran down the hallway, trying to escape the wave of blood that chased her only to reach a dead-end. She begged and pleaded, hitting her fists against the wall. There had to be an escape!“Why should you escape it, when I didn’t get that chance,” a rough voice demanded, and she turned to see Fluffy or Kyle, which was his real name, standing there with the gaping stab wound in his chest. “I was only trying to help you and look what I got for it!” he shouted at her.“I was only doing what the doc told me so I could put food on the table for my children,” another rough voice called out to her and she turned to see the human who she killed accidentally by tearing out his throat. &
