Playing with fire

3

Bursting into my fathers room I probably should have knocked.

"Sky a little busy if you don't mind.... Holy hell what the hell happened to you girl?"
As my father covered up he didn't exactly cover up the whores face that was in bed with him.

"You get out! Now!!! My daughter and I are going to have a little chat, I will come get you to finish my business if I have need of you"

Watching the girl scramble to collect her dress and get out fearing my fathers wrath.

"What happened to you? How did this happen to you? Why are you wearing your brothers robe?" He covered himself in his own robe and quickly sat down on his lounge chair

"Mother played her cards and I lost it. Why I'm in James' robe is really of no concern. What has happened to me and how do I fix it?" Sitting down my heart began to race and I whined softly fearing what could possibly happen to me.

"Tell me what happened at dinner.' looking to,his left he summoned a servant to go collect my brother. 'I need to know what happened. Everything sky."

For the better part of the night james and i recounted the story of the dinner disaster and the whole exploding room part.

After the recounting of how my destructive habits had led me to lose my temper once again.

"Father.... How did this happen? I know you used to tell us a story as a child about a boy who lost control and stayed in his shifting form. Could that actually be true?" looking at james i honestly wanted to smack,the hell out of him.

Silently i watched father chew his lip as if dwbating with himself on revealing important information.

"Yes james my boy.... It is possible. When you and your sister were born, you came out a hissing, mewling, and very hungry panter cub. Your sister came into this world screaming at the top of herlungs clutching your tail. As far as your mother and I know you have not shifted.... Not once since you were birthed into the world. I believe that it is possible to be stuck in your shifting form."

James and i stared at each other in utter shock.

"Your mother and i have tried to raise you like equals. However that did not seem to happen james and for that im truly sorry. I should have tried harder to find a way to restore your shifting. However, unlike your mother i do not believe that you have lost it. I think it is just buried deep within you. Panthers have been known to come out at peculiar times. I vow that i shall try harder to get yougto,shift before my time is up as king."

Looking at the my brother and my father i could see the same intense light in their eyes; as if they were having a private conversation i wasnt allowed to hear.

Standing up I quiclly left the room more confused than when i had first entered. Heading to the west wing library i roard in frustration and hit the nearest wall in anger.

"I dont know anymore than i did when i went inti his room! Fine... I should have done my own research" i muttered as i started pulling book after book off the shelves.
