Chapter 35 – A Lavender Wolf
••• Kyson’s POV •••
“Ready, Aleena?” I asked as the moon had turned into a perfect silver sphere.
“Rea-” Her words stopped, and I heard the cracking sound of her bones being broken.
“Oh, my Goddess,” she groaned.
Looking at her, her legs were the first to be broken, then her arms.
“Oh, Goddess!” she cried. I knew how painful it must be for her. I had to grit my teeth and clench my jaws to stop myself from going to her and taking her into my arms.
“Arrggghhhh!” her shout of agony filled the silent night.
“Hang in there, Aleena. You are doing great,” I mind-linked her. That was the only thing for me to do: praise her and encourage her in the hope that it could lessen her pain.
“I can’t… Kyson, it hurts. Please help me,” she sobbed as I heard more cracking sounds.
“Kyson… She’s in pain… I can’t stand it…” I swore I heard Night gasping as if he was having a panic attack.
“She’ll get through this, Night. She’s strong,” I comforted my wolf, even though it felt like I was comforting myself too.
“I can’t… Please stop this…” Aleena kept sobbing as she fell to her hands and knees.
It was time. She was getting closer to shifting entirely.
“Please…” Aleena begged with a gasp and trembling voice.
“You are doing great, Aleena. Just a little bit more. Focus on my voice. You will be able to get through this,” I tried to sound calm for her. It would add to her agony if she knew how anxious and afraid I was.
“Kyson… This is too much. It hurts… It hurts… I’m dying. I can’t take this anymore.” she cried as her limbs and body lengthened.
The worst part was when she hunched, and the bones on her back broke, sending a cracking sound that made even me shiver.
“Kyson… Help me…” she kept begging me, yet there was nothing I could do to help her.
“Argghhhhhhhh!” her last chilling scream of agony raised all the hair on my body and nearly made me want to stop her from shifting. I couldn’t take it. I couldn’t see her suffer that much.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
But then I saw her body slowly start to be covered by fur, and everything went dead silent.
The wolf in front of me panted after going through the gruesome shifting process.
“Aleena, you okay?” I mindlinked her.
The wolf turned its head toward me and said in a weak voice, “I’m okay, Kyson.”
I walked toward her slowly, looking at her magnificent wolf form.
“Kyson… Our mate. She’s so beautiful,” Night howled in joy.
Never had I seen such a beautiful wolf. She was as big as an Alpha. What differentiated her from the rest was that she was lavender in color.
I stroked her lavender fur. It was as soft as Aleena’s hair. “You are so beautiful,” I whispered.
I looked into her eyes and was puzzled. Doesn’t Celia have silver eyes? How can her wolf form have Aleena’s bottomless dark brown eyes?
“Kyson… Is Celia really beautiful?” she asked.
This shocked me. “Aleena?”
“Yes…” she answered hesitantly as though she was afraid her answer was wrong.
“You can talk?” Never have I seen any wolves that can talk, except for Lycanthropes.
“Umm… I can? I thought I was mindlinking you.” She was confused, too.
“Yes, you can. And you are in control of your wolf form?” Usually, when werewolves shifted into their wolf forms, the wolf was the one taking control of their bodies, and they could NOT talk.
“Is that… Is that a bad thing? Is my first shift unsuccessful?” She was doubting herself, scared that her shift was a failure.
A failure? It definitely was NOT a failure.
“Is Celia’s fur lavender in color?” She sat on her hind legs and lifted one of her front paws. Her eyes shone with wonder as she kept looking at her front paws.
“Yes,” I whispered as I kept looking at her and stroking her fur. I had never heard of a lavender wolf ever.
“Night, have you encountered a lavender wolf before?” I asked Night.
“Never. But I’ve heard about it. There was a lavender wolf a long time ago, only one. It was said to be a myth. She only appeared because she was given a mission by the Moon Goddess. You could say that she was the strongest female wolf and the direct descendant of the Moon Goddess.” Night even had awe in his voice.
Direct descendant? Mission from Moon Goddess?
“I can’t believe our mate is the strongest female wolf,” Night sighed wistfully.
I wasn’t too bothered about the mission part. She should be sent to help revive the Lycan’s race, but could Celia also be a direct descendant of the Moon Goddess? If that were the case, she should be powerful.
“Could you also merge with Celia?” I asked Aleena. The only ones who could merge with their wolf form were Lycans.
“Merge?” Aleena’s wolf form looked cute when as was confused. She had puppy eyes dog, drawing a smile on my face.
“Yes. Try letting Celia take control. But instead of her taking over completely, you combined with them, just like when Night and I merged during our first mating,” I illustrated to her.
“Let me show you,” I said and shifted to our Lycan’s form. My shift lasted only a few seconds.
“Like this, Aleena Luv,” Night and I said.
She scrutinized us and then closed her eyes. When she opened them, I saw one of her eyes was deep brown in color and the other silver, just like my Lycan form, which had one onyx eye and one gold eye when I merged with Night.
“You did it.” My heart was filled with two emotions – pride and confusion. For all I knew, only Lycans could do what we could do. Is she part Lycan? It couldn’t be. She doesn’t have a Lycan’s scent, and her wolf form is a… wolf.
“Hello, handsome Kyson,” the lavender wolf in front of me purred, and I felt my jaw drop, literally!
Alrightttt… If I had doubt before, it went away once I heard the way she spoke. Aleena wouldn’t purr sensually, nor would she call me ‘handsome Kyson.”
“Well… Well… We have a seductive mate,” Night chuckled.
“Let me talk to my mate.” Night pushed me to take over, and I let him. Unlike me, who believed we wouldn’t find our mate before I met Aleena, Night had been waiting for his mate since he was with me.
“Aleena, let Celia take full control. We should give them time to be together,” I mindlinked Aleena since I couldn’t talk anymore.
“Okay!” I heard Aleena agree readily at my request.
From Night’s eyes, I saw Celia’s eyes turn silver. Lavender fur and silver eyes. A fucking beautiful combination. Our mate’s human form was beautiful, and her wolf form was just as beautiful.
“We are lucky, Kyson,” Night said with a proud arrogance. Indeed, we are lucky.
“Hey there, handsome,” Celia purred again.
“Hey there, beautiful,” Night replied in a deep and husky voice filled with sexual suggestions.
I groaned and heard Aleena’s shy voice through our mindlink, “They are flirting with each other.”
“You know, Night. And I guess Celia has been containing her lust for a long time,” I chuckled.
“Kyson!” Aleena’s embarrassed voice sounded in my mind again. I smirked, thinking how pink her cheeks must be right now.
“Aleena, you are something else. You are able to do so many amazing things. I’m proud to have you as my mate,” I told her with all the pride I felt toward her.
“I’m… I’m not that amazing,” Aleena’s shy voice reached my mind.
Oh, but you fucking are, little mate… I smirked at how humble she was.
“You are so beautiful, mate,” Night said to Celia as he kept caressing her fur.
“Wanna play?” Celia asked coquettishly as she nuzzled the cheek against Night’s body.
“Keep doing that, and I’ll fuck you soon, mate,” Night’s voice became even more alluring.
“You have to catch me before fucking me.” Celia actually fluttered her eyelashes flirtatiously before running away from Night.
It didn’t take long for Night to catch up with her, tackled her, and they rolled around on the ground. Their joyful laughter was contagious, making Aleena and I laugh with them.
“I’ve caught you… And now I’m going to fuck you,” Night said seductively with a wicked smile and turned Celia around so she was on all four.
Okay! It was time for me and Aleena to go to our corners so we didn’t have to witness a Lycan standing on two feet fucking a wolf.
“They look very happy,” Aleena sighed in gladness. We were happy they could finally meet and interact in their natural forms.
“Everything is perfect now,” she continued, and I agreed with her.
My wolf has his mate. I knew Night was disappointed and sad when we first thought that Aleena had no wolf, so to be able to see his mate was exhilarating for him.
“Celia is beautiful, isn’t she? Lavender fur and silver eyes. I still can’t believe I have a wolf,” she sighed dreamily.
“Aleena… You are also very beautiful,” I told her earnestly.
“Kyson… You are… You are also very handsome,” Aleena said shyly.
I had to laugh at our interaction. It was the same as what Night and Celia told each other, but there was a stark difference between our tones. One was flirtatious, while ours was innocent and shy.
“Aleena, I’ve asked Liam to gather all the pack members at the main training ground tomorrow. I will introduce you as my Luna then,” I informed her.
“What… What if they won’t acknowledge me as their Luna?” I could hear the fear in her voice.
“Then we’ll just have to show them how fit and worthy you are to be their Luna.” I had no doubts whatsoever that they would accept her. Even though the pack members didn’t know about the prophecy, they could witness how strong Aleena was and would be happy to have someone as unique as her to be the Luna of the pack.
Beautiful… Strong… Have witch’s abilities… Able to manipulate elements of nature… Wolf as huge as an Alpha… And that lavender color fur… I wondered what other surprises she had in store for me.
