I woke up to the sound of people mumbling with each other. I groan slowly when I try to move my body as a wave of pain flood through every part of my delicate body. The mumbles stop and I feel a pair of familiar hands holding my shoulder as gently as possible.
I flutter my eyes when I'm met with the beautiful eyes of my mate, Lucas. He looks so miserable with his dark circle forming under his eyes and I gave him a small smile to him.
"How are you feeling?"
He carefully supports my back when I try to sit up on the bed and lay me against the pillow.
"It hurts like a bitch."
I reply softly and I hear him chuckle. I look around and see that I'm in a small ward. I quickly notice there is an iv inserted in the back of my right hand.
"How long was I out?"
I ask Lucas as he sits down next to me at the edge of the bed, wrapping his arm around my shoulder where I instantly lean on his chest.
"Almost two days."
He replies shortly and I nod.
"It's just a guess, but I think your wolf is coming out. I think in a few days you will shift and the pain you feel is just the beginning of the process of shifting."
He adds, and I didn't dare to look at him. The pain is terrifying and yet it is just the beginning.
We sat there in silence when a guy with a white long coat enters the room. I raise my head and look at the tall pale older man with his glasses on and smile at him. He smiles back and comes greeting me.
"I'm Dr. Arlen. You can call me Arlen."
He introduced himself. He quickly pulls the chair and place it next to us.
"Do you mind if I sit, Alpha? Old age."
He speaks and Lucas just nods his head.
"How old are you Luna?"
Arlen begins to ask me.
"20."
I reply shortly.
"I was informed that you have never shifted before?"
I nod quickly.
"Shifting is never easy. The pain intensifies the closer you are to shift into your wolf form. I can only give you painkillers but that's it because there's nothing we can do."
I gulp slowly and tightens my grip on Lucas's hands.
"The painkillers will help with the pain right?" I ask Arlen.
"Yes it will help, but only to lessen the pain. A little not much."
After that, Arlen left us when all the details have finally been inform to Lucas and I. Arlen told us to be with each other at all times because mates too can lessen the pain.
Honestly, I'm not complaining with Lucas being with me 24/7. I'm only complaining about the pain. I have heard about shifting before.
They said the higher you are in rank, the more you will experience the pain and that scares me. Although I am the Luna of this pack, I'm not formally link yet to the other pack members.
That makes my rank low but even when my rank is this low, it still hurts like a bitch. My eyes darts to Lucas. He is the Alpha, it must be really hurt for him.
Some of the Alphas needs to be confined in the dungeon because they lost control of their wolf on the first shifting.
"It will be okay Lys. I'm here. You don't have to fight the pain. It will be easier like that."
Lucas soothes me while hugging me tenderly.
"I know."
I reply shortly, still traumatize from yesterday. Later, we were told we can go home and Lucas wasting no time and pick me up and carry me the whole walk to the house.
He insisted in carrying me when I try to protest. I finally obey him and let him do whatever he wants. So for the past few days, I have been staying close to Lucas and my energy depleted significantly after each waves of pain struck me.
This is hell. Just shift already for god's sake.
Lucas and I have just finishes our lunch and we are heading back to our bedroom when my knees buckle out and I fall on my knees with a loud thud. The fall is so sudden that it catches both me and Lucas off guard.
This ain't a romantic movie where the main guy luckily catches his lover when she almost falls. A shiver ran through my body and I have a bad feeling about it.
Is it today? My forehead starts to form cold sweats, and I zoned out from Lucas. Slowly the familiar pain increase and I clutch my clothes tightly in hoping it would ease the pain.
I didn't realize when Lucas take me out of the house and carry me to the backyard when he lay me down on the soft grass.
It finally happening is it?
Now I'm rethinking my whole decision of wanting to get this over with. I have such a foul mouth. My limbs are pounding with pain and I feel like they are going to explode.
I scream loudly when another wave of unbearable pain flow through every part of my body. I feel like I am dead. I gasp for air and curl my body as another pain erupts in me.
After a few minutes or maybe hours battling with the pain. It vanishes and the last thing I saw was a pair of yellowish eyes looking straight at me.
When I open my eyes, I saw a black wolf stands a few feet above me. I recognize the wolf instantly. Lucas. His snoot nudge me slowly and that's when I realize. I am in my wolf form. My wolf is beautiful, coated with light gray, thick fur with a little black dots at the edge of my fluffy tail.
Alyssa.
I hear another voice in my head calling out to me.
It's me, Esma. Your wolf.
The voice speaks again inside of my head.
What took you so long?
I reply shortly. She's just laughs me off. Lucas nudge me again and I focus on him. He starts to jog and I know what he wants.
A run. I slowly follow him, feeling foreign in this form but once I get the hang of it, I sprint through the woods past Lucas. I feel free, like I'm flying.
I keep on running when I hear Lucas growl. I instantly stop my track, and that's when I realize I almost cross over the border. Oops. I jog back playfully at him and nudge his neck with my snoot. For a few hours, we play and run around the woods and I had the best time of my life.
When we shift back, Lucas has already mindlinked his sister to prepare some of my clothes for me to change. Shifting back to human form is much easier than my first shifting.
"You are a fast runner. No one ever beats me to it."
He says to me as he softly kiss my forehead.
"What can I say. I'm natural."
I smiled giving him my best smile.
"Are you feeling okay now?"
He asks me while tugging my hair behind my ear.
"Yeah but I'm hungry." He laughs and take my hand as we walk back to the pack house.
