I'm in Love with a Lycanthrope

Chapter 9

Crystal's POV

Johnny took off running and I ran after him. Thanks to my wolf side, I caught up to him in plenty of time. I tackled him to the ground and lipped him over. He looked scared and hurt, but not in a physically pain, emotionally.

"Please Johnny, you have to let me explain." I said, on the verge of tears. He nodded and I sighed in relief.

"Ok. I was born to be a Lycanthrope or as other people say would say, werewolf. I don't eat people and I sure as hell don't hurt them for joy. I'm supposed to be in my wolf form right now, but since the legend is true, I'm actually human right now. Let me explain before you interrupt. The legend says that if a Lycanthrope is near its mate, they will turn into a wolf and stay like that until the mate is alright with you being what you are or if a Blood Moon rises." I said as I pointed to the sky.

"So, you aren't going to hurt me?" he asks.

"No." I said as I got off of him and sat next to him.

"Do you have any powers?"

"Yeah. I can obviously turn into a wolf an control water. Like freeze it, heat it up, and make it move." I said. He looked shocked. I mean who wouldn't be at this point?

"So, all that time you were actually a werewolf?"

"A Lycanthrope, but yes."

"Who is your mate?" he asks. I looked down and blushed.

"Soda." I said. He smiles brightly and I actually felt nice talking about it with him.

"Oh." he says while smirking. I lightly punched his shoulder and he took his hand and patted my head. I moved away.

"Where are you really from and why did you come to this dump??" he asks

"I'm from Kentucky and umm.......... my dad went insane when my mom died........ he started beating me and.......... I ran away. I don't know why I came here, I just had this feeling that I had to." I said quietly.

"That's why you helped me more than everyone else, it was because I'm going through the same thing you went through." he said sadly. I nodded and looked up at the sky. He hugged me and I instantly hugged back.

"So, when are you going back?" he asks, referring to home.

"When the sun rises, that's when I'll turn back to my wolf form." I said. He nods and lays on the ground. I did the same thing and we started talking about me being a wolf. It was getting pretty late, so we went to the lot and laid down. I cuddled close to him, keeping him warm. It was a chilly night and Johnny was shivering, my wolf side kept me from being cold and I tried to keep Johnny warm with the warmth that I had. I looked down to see him peacefully asleep. I closed my eyes and fell asleep myself.
