Werewolf Academy

Chapter Four

Miceala stayed beside me the entire way. She even tried to hold my hand but I kept my arms crossed.

The man opened a door and let me and Miceala walk through before closing the door. "Alright. There is adequate room to shift. Now do it."

I shrugged and smiled as the warmth filled my body. The sound of my bones moving echoed off the walls and my skin itched for a second as the hair erupted from my pores. When I was fully shifted I shook my fur and smirked as the both of them stared at me like I was a ghost.

I sat on my hind legs and stared at them. They didn't say anything so I started to lick my paws.

"You're a tiger." I laughed in my head.

'Took you long enough.'

The man circled me. "How?"

I gave a shrug. 'Don't quite know. I shifted for the first time and this was the product. Gorgeous, isn't she?'

Miceala was still staring speechless. The man on the other hand was curious. "Can either of your parents do this? Can you possibly change even more into a wolf?"

I shrugged. 'I'm not sure. My dad didn't want me exploring with it until I was old enough.' I licked one of my paws again.

The man stood and looked me over. "Alright, this stays between us. No one else is to know, and if I hear a breath of it anywhere then I will suspend you."

'Suspend me? You have that kind of power? I thought you were just some training guy.'

"I'm the headmaster of this school." He paused. "Alright. You're definitely not training to be a warrior. We can't risk anyone seeing this."

'What!? I want to be a warrior! I don't want to be anything else.' I argued with him.

He looked to Miceala. She seemed to have calmed down some. "She's obviously capable, I mean." She looked back to me with a confused look. "I just hope..." She trailed off. "It's up to you headmaster." Finally she turned to him.

He looked between me and the door. "Fine, but you are to keep this part of you completely hidden until further notice. I will call your father and speak to him about this."

I shrugged. 'Fine by me.' He walked out leaving me with Miceala.

"You're a gorgeous white tiger." She reached a hand out and I stayed still. My fur was beautifully plush and soft, I couldn't blame her for wanting to touch it. "Do you have the mark?"

I tilted my head in confusion. 'What mark?'

She quickly pulled her hand back. "Nothing. I'll bring you some clothes."

She left the room and I sat in silence. 'What the hell does she mean by mark?' I asked my tiger.

'Hell if I know. I just know that I'm fabulous.' She flaunted around making me laugh a little.

'You are such a sassy cat.' She scoffed.

'I'm not a cat. I'm a tigress. Beautiful in every way.'

'And so humble.' I snickered.

She didn't respond because Miceala came back with a bundle of clothes. "They're robes." I nodded and she put them down before leaving.

I let my bones click back into place before slipping on a black robe. Just as I stepped out of the room a voice came on above my head. "Sophelia Desperte, return to the training area." I rolled my eyes and walked into the huge room. A woman grabbed my arm and began dragging me along.

"Um, excuse me?" I snatched my arm out of her grip.

She turned back to me and a flash of fear ran through her. "Sorry, but I have to take you to the headmaster's office. You don't know where it is so he sent me to take you there."
