Demons, Magic and a Tragic Love

Chapter 14: The Wolf's Bite

"Celena? You may want to come over too Jason's apartment," Jess said cautiously as Celena answered her phone.

"Why?" Celena asked returning her nervous tone.

"Umm... Something... Well something's happened with Alec."

"What! What happened!" Celena yelled but Jess remained silent. "Jessica Tilan. Tell me what happened to Alec or so help me I will rip you throat out!"

"Umm...you won't believe me if I tell you."

"Jess please tell me he is alright."

"He's not hurt he is just kinda of ... You know... Freaking out." Jess sighed. "Please he isn't listening to me.and you may want to bring some clothes for him."

"Why?"

"Just trust me please."

Celena reluctantly agree and hastily packed a bag full of both Alec and her own clothes if Alec was hurt there was no way in hell she was leaving that apartment.

She rushed out and into the lobby. And immediately crashed into her little brother he stayed standing while she fell to the floor. "Where are you going in such a hurry?" He asked as he helped her to her feet.

the moment she was on her feet she started rushing to the exit again. "Alec is in trouble!" She shouted as she darted for the door.

Within minutes she was at the warlocks apartment. She burst up the stairs and started slamming the heal of her hand into the wood.

"Celena?" She heard Jessica shout

"Yeah,"

"Come in." Jessica sounded breathless so Celena didn't hesitate to enter. She burst into the apartment and the seen she saw was not one she had been expecting. Her entire trip to the apartment she had images of Alec flashing through her mind. Covered in blood and demon guts. Covered in bruises. The memory of the night Sergei Renwick had attacked him flooded every inch of her brain. But when all of those images had a broken and battered Alec in them. But this was not Alec this was a giant wolf. 'Alec' purred Celena's inner wolf recognising the beautiful wolf as her mate.

"I hate to interrupt this little dreamy eyes session your having but do you mind dealing with that!" The warlock indicated the wolf. "I do believe he wants to destroy my apartment."

Alec turned to snarl at Jason. As he did he knocked over a bookshelf and a lamp. The bookshelf landed with an all mighty thud. With his over sensitive hearing the noise scared the wolf and he bounded away from it knocking over the tv and several other items in the process.

"Really, you've got to be kidding me."

"Jason..."

"Both of you into the bedroom." Celena instructed talking to Jess and Jason. Jessica practically had to drag her boyfriend out of the room. The moment the door was closed Celena took off her shirt and then her shorts. She had dropped the bag with both her clothes and Alec's in the door way when she entered. Alec's wolf let out a low growl of disapproval. All though they were alone in this room his sister and a warlock were in the next room. Celena slipped out of her underwear and phased.

She stood in her wolf form in front of Alec. She didn't do anything just stood there allowed her mate to take in every part of her figure. From her blotchy brown fur to the wetness of her nose and the odd bend in her tail. Celena rubbed up against Alec who stood almost frozen. His wolf was a great deal different to Celena's. His was jet black with white paws, ears and a white stripe from the the centre of his head to his nose. He was the most beautiful wolf she had ever seen and best of all those piecing blue eyes. They saw into the depths of her soul and could make any girl weak at the knees. But he was hers and she was his. Nothing could tell her different. Savannah rubbed against him and he nuzzled into her neck. He whimpered softly. He was scared he wanted to be back in his human form but he didn't know how. Being in this form went against all of the things he had ever been taught. Celena shifted back into her human form and pulled one of Alec's baggy jumpers over her head so that Alec would stop growling and glaring at the closed door behind which Jessica and Jason stood. Celena pulled on her underwear and sat infront of Alec she phased merely so that Alec would know that he wouldn't hurt her not could he.

"Alec you need to let go of the anger. you need to calm down." Celena whispered attempting to place a hand against his muzzle. Alec skidded away and whimpered. Celena went forward again. "Your not going to hurt me Alec. But you need to do as I say. You must force the wolf back inside." He cocked his head to the side to express his confusion. "Concentrate all your energy into returning into your human form,"

Alec concentrated all his energy. Within what seemed like hours, the change began to happen. His face pushed back in on itself and sculpted into that of a human his fur grew backwards shrinking back into his skin his tail disappeared and his back striated. He was back in his normal human state. Celena sighed a breath of relief and handed him some clothes before pulling on her own jeans. After Alec was fully dressed he turned to her and asked, "is it always that painful?"

"It only last for a couple of phases. But it's the raining the wolf in that is hardest to get used to."

"My wolf doesn't like me very much." He muttered.

Celena laughed "Alec your wolf is you." Alec looked at her as if she was crazy. "You and your wolf act the same think the same love the same people and dislike the same as well. But sometimes your human side dose something stupid and your wolf side is left to clean up the mess so you don't see eye to eye on those things. It's like your soul gets split into too parts the wolf part and the human part but you live within the same mind. "

"Okay, your life is just confusing,"

"You mean our,"

"Is it safe to come out now." Jess stuck her head out the bedroom door with her hand over her eyes. "Are you both decent."

"Yeah Jess," Alec sighed "we're dressed."

Jessica and Jason exited the bedroom. Jessica went over and gave Alec a loose hug showing she was glad that he was back in his human form. Jason on the other hand seemed to be more annoyed then he had before,he glowered at Alec as he righted his furniture.

Once he finished he sat down and ignored the other three.

The girl drifted in and out of darkness. Images of her previous life ran through her mind but she could not connect them to her memories. 2 boys, a girl and an older couple flitted before her eyes like faces in a crowd, you see them but you do not know them or recognise them.

The darkness faded from around her. She was in what appeared to be a bedroom. She was hungry and she needed blood.

She went though the door of the bedroom looking for some form of life to feed off. She to her surprise found four people standing around not doing much in particular. A group of three stood talking in the middle of the living room. The forth sat alone with his head in a book completely oblivious to what was going on around him. Unfortunately for the girl his blood smelt putrid invested with that of the demon domain.

She looked toward the group. The girl with dark hair reeked of wet dog, 'Cani-lupus' her mind sung,'kill you if you tried' she looked to the other two the second girl wore all black and had weapons hanging off her belt. Including stakes of holy metal that would surely kill a vampire.

She had one option and one alone. The boy with dark hair and a slight tan to his skin.

She launched her self at him and sunk her fangs into his throat.
