That night Luna had gotten home all doe eyed. It was clear. She was in love. She was startled by her uncle who told her that he had to stay out tonight as he had some stuff to take care of as the moon was full. He didn’t explain it to her and left. Luna thought nothing of it as she knew that her uncle had his moods. She went up to her room to reminisce on the events of the day.
She lay down on her bed twirling her hair round her fingers thinking of the way that Luca had stared at her. She felt her blood rush just by the thought of him. Luna didn’t know why she was having those feelings. She’d had crushes on boys in the past but never to this extent. It was so bad that she hurt at the thought of him not being available. She wondered if he was even the slightest bit interested in her.
Maybe she should have asked whether he had a girlfriend but she didn’t want to come off as needy or desperate. She didn’t want him thinking that she was not worth being pursued. But he was so beautiful. So damn perfect. As Luna lay down staring at the night sky, she started to feel woozy. The moon had started to rise and she drifted off to sleep dreaming of none other than Luca.
She suddenly awoke and found herself in her wolf form at the top of the mountain near the creek. Having absolutely no recollection of how she got there she got up and howled at the moon as if questioning what was going on with her. She did how ever make use of this shift. He last shift had been much less painful but this one if she were in fact not dreaming was seamless. She’d felt nothing. Trying to be sure she tried to switch back. Before you knew it Luna had in a snap transformed back to her human form. She looked down at her hands and feet as she stood naked at the top of the mountain overlooking Attica.
Luna suddenly felt the urge to shift again and she did. The huge white wolf with blue eyes emerged only with this transformation she sensed danger and took a stance of authority at the top of the mountain. Luna looked behind her as he heard chanting toward the bottom of the mountain and ran quickly in the direction of the chanting. The chanting seemed to be bothering Luna as she felt woozy while running. It seemed to slow her down.
“What the hell was happening to her?” she thought to herself. She was in her room looking up at the moon while thinking of her beautiful Luca and the next thing she knew she was at the top of the mountain in her wolf form. Now she felt threatened and was hearing chanting in the distance and was running toward it not feeling well at all.
