I woke up a sore and tried standing up, only to fall back down and sighed hearing a weird noise. Looking for the source, my eyes landed upon a bloody body.

I tried to scream but it somehow came out as a weird cross between a yelp and a howl. Finally, I noticed my surroundings: a forest. What am I doing in a forest?

It was then that I remembered recent events; me getting rejected and raped, both at the hands of alphas. Like father, like son.

But the last thing I remembered was the rogue launching at me to kill while I was- shifting! I looked down to see black paws. I had finally shifted after all this time?

Fate must be playing an evil joke.

'What happened after that?' I wondered staring at the bloody dead body. 'I couldn't have done that could I?' if I did I wasn't freaked at all.

"I see you're finally awake." The voice startled me making me yelp in surprise. I turned towards the shadowed edge of the forest growling in a defensive position. Don't ask me how I knew he was there. I just knew.

A figure emerged from the shadows, chuckling. Making me growl again as he kept approaching. He stopped a few feet from me, raising his hands in a motion of surrender. "Calm down, would you?"

I relaxed a little until I smelt the air. Rogue. I tensed once again.

He stared at me before sighing. "Relax, okay? I'm not going to hurt you especially after I saved you." He spoke sincerely. So he was the one who killed the rogue. Why?

He must have seen the question in my eyes because he responded. "Why wouldn't I help a damsel in distress?" He smirked. Jeez such a great reason.

"So... are you going to shift back or what?" He was still smirking but, his question registered- I didn't know how to shift back. At that, I whimpered and laid on the ground my head on my two front paws.

"Oh." His smirk dropped. It was an awkward silent for a while before he sighed and cautiously approached me. I didn't even bother to growl or try anything to warn him or defend myself. What's the point? I may as well lay here and wait for my death; I've got nothing to live for anyway. They destroyed everything.

He moved closer until he stood in front of me, kneeled down, and passed his hands over my fur making me flinch before I relaxed after a while. I just watched him whilst he watched me before he suddenly stood up straight making me flinch once again.

Expecting a hit or a kick I whimper burying my fury head deeper into my paws... waiting. "Come on try standing up, I'm going to teach you how to shift back." I snapped my head up in surprise. Why is he helping me? Why isn't he doing anything like attacking me or spitting insults at me?

"Come on now." He gave me a smirk as I wobbled waiting for me to find balance. It felt foreign being on four legs and not to mention the tail and the enhanced senses.

"Alright to turn back concentrate on turning human, you can picture it in you mind if it helps" he explained.

I concentrated as he said and tried to picture it but just couldn't since sadly I avoided any way of seeing my reflection, even when cleaning the mirrors and windows.

I concentrated again not bothering to try picturing myself and soon enough I felt a pulling and tingling sensation like I was being stretched or shrunk in this case. Opening my eyes, I saw that I was back on my own two feet when suddenly all I could see was darkness. My hands went towards my eyes in panic only to feel fabric. Oh right I'm naked, I thought, pulling on the shirt, it reached mid-thigh.

I stood there awkwardly while the guy was staring at me making me uncomfortable. "What?" I asked timidly. I couldn't help but notice how my voice sounded a little different. Probably because of all the screaming.

"You're hot." he randomly commented assessing me from head to toe not even looking embarrassed or ashamed. Yet still I couldn't help but blush but, I was confused. I couldn't help picture the rogues from his look making me shiver striking fear into my heart.

"What are you trying to do make me laugh? Because that's not funny." I narrowed my eyes at him surprised where the sudden courage came from. What if he did what the rogues did to me? What if I'm actually killed this time? Would that be a bad thing?

'Yes' what was-

"Have you seen yourself?" He asked, raising an eyebrow with an 'are you kidding me?' look.

"Well I'm just skin and bones. Doubt anyone would be interested." I shrugged. Unless they have a really good reason like freedom.

"Skin and bones? What gave you that idea because I see more than skin and bones "I caught his stare at my chest? Pervert! I barely have anything to look at anyway.

He just sighed and took my hand not noticing my flinch as my heart beat began to spike in fear, dragging me. We walked a distance before we came to a river.

"Look." He pointed at the water while I watches him warily. "It's not like I'm going to try and drown you after all I did to help?" He rolled his eyes. Narrowing my eyes I did as he said and went to the edge of the lake, looking in gasping at what I saw.

My dry and lifeless brown hair was now black and alive, and my usual dull lifeless blue eyes were now a light combination of blue and green. They still held pain and sadness within them, but now they radiated viciousness and power.

Not believing it I kept leaning closer and closer before I slipped and went hurtling towards the water, accidentally dragging the rogue down with me. There was a loud splash, followed by deep breaths as we resurfaced. I turned towards the rogue who now had an irritated look on his face. I couldn't help it - I began giggling, which turned into full-blown laughter. I hadn't giggle much less laugh like this for a long time.

The guy stared at me in amusement. "You think this is funny?" He raised an eyebrow and I nodded, trying to stifle my remaining giggles.

He suddenly dove under water, making me Look around in confusion before I felt something grab me by the ankle, and pull me below. We came back up to the surface with him laughing as I pouted.

"You know you should laugh more often" he commented out of the blue. I felt my cheeks warm until the situation finally caught up to me.

"This wasn't how I looked before, you know." I spoke quietly.

"Really?" he asked.

"Yeah." I closed my eyes and floated on the water. It was so peaceful. For once I had someone who was talking to me properly; not saying profanities, hitting me, or looking in disgust.

"Must have something to do with you being a pure black wolf" he stated.

"My wolf is pure black?" I asked, excited. No one in my pack has that wolf color, I would know, sometimes they use me as a dummy for training or simply make me run before tracking me in wolf form. Then what he said dawned on me. "What does that have to do with me being a pure black wolf?" I asked curiously. Sure no one in my pack is a black wolf but I'm sure there are in other packs.

"You mean you don't know?" He sounded shocked.

"Know what?" I was more confused than ever.

"The prophecy."

"Prophecy?"

"Prophecy of how mates, alphas and packs came to be along with the pure white and black wolf."
