I woke up to the sound of Becca quietly whispering my name. I'm not a heavy sleeper, so for her to wake me up was pretty easy.

"We're here, at Luke's cottage" she said, looking towards the large house we were parked in front of.

We grabbed our things and found Luke already waiting for us at the door.

He gave us a quick nod and opened the door to his cottage.

"Oh thank god you brought them". Ashton said, as soon as we stepped into the beautiful home.

The cottage was all hardwood. Hardwood panelling, floors, and windows. The furniture was clean and vintage, but at the same time it looked modern.

There was a large wood fireplace in the corner, and off to the right there was an enormous kitchen.

The place was absolutely breathtaking.

I was broken out of my little trance by Ashton engulfing me in a bear hug.

"I know we only just met you guys, but you've already affected our lives more than you think", the curly haired boy said to Becca and I.

I sighed, "you guys have so much explaining to do".

Luke then looked over to Ashton and it looked like they had a conversation with only their eyes. But then I remembered Luke's power, he probably spoke to Ashton telepathically.

"Just take a seat guys, Calum and Mike should be here any minute" Luke said to the two of us.

We did as he said so, but as we sat down on the couch, we heard the door slam causing the both of us to bolt up.

"Ugh"! I heard a male voice yell.

"Michael? Oh my god Mike! You need to calm down now! The girls are here"! I heard Luke say to who I'm pretty sure was Michael.

I then walked back up to the front door, and saw the most horrible thing imaginable.

Michael, wasn't Michael. He didn't have his coloured hair and the same facial features, and he didn't look human at all.

"MICHAEL STOP"! Luke yelled.

But he couldn't stop Michael from what was happening to him.

Michael was changing, all that I could hear was bones cracking and screams. Not only were the screams coming from Luke, who was trying to calm down the boy, but also from Michael, who was now on all fours.

It was then my turn to scream. And let me tell you right now, the scream that I let out was bloodcurdling.

Michael, who I just saw as a human. Was no longer that, instead, he was a giant wolf.

He had reddish fur and green eyes, the same eyes as he had when he was a human.

I was scared to say the least. Not only did one of my friends just turned into a wild animal, but he was snarling and growling at Becca, who was standing shocked beside me.
She wasn't screaming, but she was shaking so bad I thought she was going to collapse.

We started to back up when we realized Michael was now slowly walking towards us. He was growling and snapping his sharp teeth.

"ASHTON! CAL"! I heard Luke scream.

The two boys obviously heard Luke's distressed call to them, because they came dashing towards where we were.

Calum came first, only dressed in sweatpants which hung though on his hips, his toned stomach on full display.

Ashton was quick to follow and as soon as they caught sight of the giant wolf trying to kill Becca and I, their eyes went as wide as golf balls and they lunged at Michael, tackling him.

"MICHAEL CALM DOWN" Calum yelled at his friend.

But Michael didn't stop, he just growled at his three best friends and looked even angrier before.

Then Calum gave Ashton and Luke looks and the the three of them shoved Michael out the door onto the lawn.

Becca and I quickly followed them outside, trying to figure what was going to happen.

Then it all stopped. We didn't hear growling or screaming anymore. And we didn't see Wolf-Michael anymore.

All that we could see was Luke, Ashton and Calum huddled around something.

We then ran over, maybe it wasn't the best idea considering the fact that we were just almost killed by a friend of ours, but we did it anyway.

Michael was there, lying on the ground sobbing, "I- I'm so sorry girls, I d-don't know what came over me, I would n-never hurt you guys" he said holding his head in his hands.

I didn't answer, I couldn't. I was shaking too much. I couldn't make a sound come out of my mouth, so I did what my body told me to do and I ran.

I ran back inside the house and locked myself in the spare bedroom at the end of the large hallway.

I then collapsed on the bed and cried violently.

What did I do to deserve this? My best friend and I are now stuck in a house with a psychopathic boy with telepathic powers, and also a boy that changed into a wolf.

What if.....no. Those things aren't real. Those type of creatures only exist in stupid books like Twilight.

But it happened. Michael changed into a wolf. He turned into a murderous beast who definitely looked like he wanted to kill Becca and I.

I saw it with my own eyes and I was positive that I didn't hallucinate. All the others seem to see it too so it had to be real.

The word kept replaying in my head. Over and over. Werewolf.

Before I knew it, I found myself drifting off to the sound of people calling my name from outside of the door, it sounded like Luke and Calum. But I didn't get up, I couldn't stand to talk to them right now.

Not after what I just went through.
