Episode 10

After Noah kissed me, something felt very wrong. I heard my parents calling me, but I couldn't answer. It felt like I wasn't home anymore. I heard my godmother's voice, and I was lying there in that place from my dream, on that altar. I could no longer distinguish between reality and dreams. I woke up three days after being there.

My godmother, Segnora, told me I wasn't human. She said I was 195 years old, not 20, and that to protect the worlds she had to bind and seal my wolf. I couldn't believe I was a werewolf too. I didn't know whether to be angry or cry with disappointment at the lies. My family wasn't really my family. They assured me they truly loved me, but I didn't know if I could believe them.

The pain in my body was excruciating. It felt like something was tearing me apart from the inside. Sometimes I couldn't breathe. As much as my godmother and the others cast spells to contain the pain, it all seemed too much for me. She said I was in so much pain because my wolf had been imprisoned for years, and wolves can't go more than fifteen days without a run.

Today, specifically at dinnertime, I started to hear howls and cries. Then I collapsed, and my body began to convulse. I could feel my bones breaking and my jaw growing. I understood that I was transforming. The pain of my bones breaking and rearranging to become my wolf form was excruciating. I don't know how I endured it without screaming. I felt a white fur take over my body. My senses all sharpened. I was on all fours. I approached a glass door and saw a completely white wolf. It was the wolf from my dream. It was me. She always tried to warn me.
