The Badass Behind The Girl: The Choice of Love

Chapter Twenty

When the rest of the wolves and I came back from our run; we figured it wasn't a long run since the moon was still high in the sky and Leah and Jake were still standing in the clearing. As soon as I arrived my body tingled and I soon found myself staring at human hands and feet. "That was awesome!" I shouted as I walked up to them. I thought that it would be harder to shift back. Guess having a warrior wolf spirit guiding you makes it easier for me. Lucky gal I am.

"Hey, no fair!" Damon's voice rang out and I turned to face him. He came out of the forest wearing the black robe he had on when I shifted. I was kind disappointed that he was covered but it didn't last long because he still had a considerable amount of skin on show. A feeling of jealousy flooded me when I saw some of the other female wolves giving him lingering looks. I shook it off and focused on Damon's comment.

I look at him confused, "What's not fair?" I asked and he shook his head as if to say "this is unbelievable".

"You. How come when we shift back we are completely naked but you get some Tarzan outfit on you? It's not right." He shook his head again in the same manner before. I furrowed my eyebrows and looked down. He was right; I had a white top and skirt made out of what looked like cloth on. It did look like Jane's outfit from Tarzan. Only white.

I looked up at him, "Now this is freaking awesome." I said and did a twirl. The other wolves just shook their heads in disbelief. A feeling appeared inside of me to look at Leah and Jake. I went with it and turned to face them...and nearly screamed.

The look of alarm crossed my face and they asked if I was okay. I just stood still and Damon and Adrian came to stand next to me.

"Angel, what's wrong?" Damon asked in a worried tone but I just kept staring at my brother and best friend.

"You mean you don't see it? Leah and Jake?" I asked in a tone that suggested that I had just gone completely insane and they shook his head after he squinted a look at them.

"No, I don't. What do you see?"

Walk up to them and lay your hands on them. You must unleash them. A voice whispered.

Unleash? What the hell does that mean? Either way I slowly walked up to them after a moment of hesitation and laid a hand on each of their shoulders. The swirls around them became clearer and I could finally make out what I was seeing around them.

"Guys, don't freak out, okay?" I said and they nodded although they were pale.

"Avita?" Damon called unsure but I hushed him.

"Wait, I think it's my wolf that is speaking to me." I said and everybody kept quiet.

You may not understand this yet but you are special. I cannot tell you what you need to know or why. You need to figure it out for yourself. You have the ability to unleash their wolves; only you. Somehow their wolves could not come out but you will break the hold. The words will come to you. Do not hold them back. Feel the power you have inside of you and relax in it. Do not be afraid of who and what you are. You are strong and you are The Royal.

With those words she faded. I could still feel her but I knew her speaking days were over for now. I came back down to reality and heard the comments of my father, "She's not suppose to be able to speak to her wolf. It should just be a presence." I scoffed at that. What the hell did I just get myself into? I thought.

I snapped out of it when a warm sensation filled my body. My body tensed but relaxed after I realized that it was the 'power' that my wolf was 'speaking' of. I surrendered to it and let it guide me. Words started to flow out of my mouth before I even registered that I was talking.
