8- Truth

When she seen Steve running alongside us in the woods and found him beautiful an idea bloomed in my mind.  I mind link him, Chris and several others to join him, they all chuckled since they were there just hidden further in the forest to not spook her.  Her excitement level soared as more of the wolves joined the run.  I pulled onto our access road and stopped the car.  She unbuckled her seatbelt and moved closer to me, staring at the wolves.  When she talked about Steve being courageous and Chris being strong, I have to admit I was impressed.  She was reading the wolves, she even called Leah sweet and knew she was a she and that she liked Chris a lot.  I reach my hand out to her, my eyes pleading for her to take it and reluctantly she does.  I give it a little squeeze and breath out, I look out to the wolves and they all bow their heads to the car.  Charlie watches in amazement and gasps, she looks back at me her eyes wide, "how, how'd you do that?"

I smile, "I'm one of them, actually I'm their Alpha."  She pulls her hand from me, her knees rise to her chest, her arms wrap around them pulling them closer to her body, her green eyes flicker to grey as she stares at me.  I go to speak but my wolf Ceasar stops me, "wait, her wolf is talking to her and she's actually listening to her."

I watch as Charlie smiles, nods and her arms release her legs, she grabs my hand, "Ceasar is your wolf's name," she whispers to me.  

My eyes flash black as Ceasar comes forward, she giggles, "hi Ceasar, I'm Charlie." 

I push Ceasar back, "Charlie would you like to see the wolves up close, go out there and watch as they shift back to humans?"  

Her body moves closer to me, her eyes never leaving the wolves as her hands grab the dashboard, she leans forward, "yea, I would like to see that," she scrunches her nose up, "will they be naked?"

I chuckle, "well, yes, will that bother you."

She looks at me in shock, "very much, can you tell the boys to cover themselves, I don't want to see their private parts."

I smile as I look at my pack mates, "no problem, my love." 

Again, her head snaps towards me, she looks at my face like she's reading it then turns back to the wolves.  "So how are you going to tell them?"

I look at my pack, "well through our minds, it's just one of the gifts having a wolf gives you, I think of who I want to talk to and bam I'm in their head, it's kind of like your wolf Charlie, the voice in your head, she's your wolf."

She snaps her head to me, "wolf, naw, it's just me being crazy, like this dream I'm in right now."  

My brows crease, "Charlie I assure you your wide awake my love, this is the truth of who you are, what you are, what we all are."

She eyes me warily and then nods, "okay."

I point forward and she looks at the wolves, she watches in amazement as they all begin to shift into human form, all the men do their best to cover their fronts with their hands.  Her eyes widen as she watches and she squints, she bounces in the seat, "that's Steve and that's Chris, she claps her hands together and looks at me, "okay get out and turn into Ceasar, I want to see your wolf."

I snicker at her, "demanding aren't you?"

I open the door and step out, I stand behind the open door and begin undressing.  Her eyes widen at me, "Woah, what are you doing?"

 "Uhm, saving my clothes, unless you want me driving with you in the car naked," I arch my brow to her.

Her face flushes red and she smirks at me, "okay, you have a point."  I remove my shirt and her eyes take me in, her tongue flicks out and she licks her lips.  I pull off my sweatpants and throw them ontop of the car.  I move to the front of the car as she steps out, I get on all fours and shift into Ceasar.  She moves from the door and stumbles backwards as she looks up at Ceasar, "WHOA, your huge," Ceasar sits in front of her and bows his head down, she reaches up and runs her hand threw his black fur, she whispers, "you're so soft Ceasar."  Ceasar moves closer to her, his head lowers to her face, she giggles, "I see a leader who possess great strength, bravery, compassion," she creases her brows and shakes her head, "I also see a ruthless warrior who shows no mercy."  Ceasar puffs out his chest and she goes back to the front of the car, "please change back to a human."  Her hand stokes through my fur as she passes mumbling, "I hope I remember this when I wake up or come out of this coma." 

She heads towards the pack and I mind link Steve and Chris, "she thinks she dreaming or in a coma, fuck."  I shift back, grab my pants and pull them on. 

I walk towards her as she talks to Steve, "your wolf is beautiful, I hope I remember all this." 

He smiles at her, "Charlie you're not dreaming," he waves around at all the people, "it's real, shall I pinch you for you to understand it's real."

I growl at him, "don't even think about laying a finger on her Gamma."

Charlie backs up away from me and stops, tears fall from her eyes, "I think it's ending and I don't want to face the reality," she hits ground on her knees.

I fall in front of her, cupping her face and pull it up to meet mind, "Charlie what's wrong?"

She frowns, "I feel pain, in my stomack."

Ceasar growls in my head, "her wolf is pushing for the shift, she's afraid that if she doesn't shift now, Charlie will crack."  

I scoop Charlie into my arms, "you're going to be fine Charlie, I just need to get you inside our borders, I look at Chris take the car back home, Leah come with me please.  I run into the border and set her down in an open field of wild flowers.  She screams in pain, I shake my head, "this isn't good."

Leah removes her shoes and socks, then moves to take her pants off and Charlie swats at her hands, "no, please, just let me die with some dignity." 

I look at Charlie and her eyes are tightly shut, I lean over her, placing my hand on her arm, "my love your shifting into your wolf, you're not going to die." 

She doesn't move, nor open her eyes, her breathing slows, Leah looks at me, "keep your hand on her Alpha, your helping with the pain." 

Leah goes back to unbutton her pants, but this time, Charlie whispers, "don't look at me please, I can smell you," a tear falls from the corner of her eye and I pull her head into my lap.  Leah removes her pants and gasps.  Charlie's body begins to contort, but she doesn't make a sound, I stay in place as long as I can as I watch white fur come out of her skin, her bones begin to crack and realign, I move her head off me and step back, the scream that leaves her mouth is heartbreaking as her shirt rips off her, Leah grabs the head band off and tears flow out of her eyes, as she looks at the bold spots on her head.  

After another ear shattering scream, Chalie completes her transformation, her white wolf lays on the ground not moving, her breathing is ragged, her tongue hangs out of the corner of her mouth.  I move to her side, stroking her fur, "well hello mate, aren't you the prettiest she-wolf I've ever seen."
