Ready to protect.” She tilted her head, soft smile playing on her lips. “And I’m ready to let you.” The forest responded again — branches swayed, leaves shimmered, and sunlight painted a golden glow across the clearing. Even the watcher seemed to pause, silent, observing, recognizing the significance of what was unfolding.

I love her too much and didn’t want her to hate me for lashing out at him. Victoria made excuses, and we went to our room. She undressed and went inside the shower. I walked in behind her and touched her softly. Her body leaned on me. I can’t get tired of her scent and her soft skin. I sense her need, my hands on her, feeling loved. Still insecure, she was back in this place, questioning everything again. I needed to show her again that I was real, and what we have is real. It’s like starting over. I had to be patient with her.

Peaceful. Then my wolf spoke up. *We need to shift today. Can't keep putting it off.* I groaned internally. *Good morning to you too.* *Morning, afternoon, night—doesn't matter. We need to shift. You're getting weaker the longer you resist.* *I'm not resisting,* I thought back, irritation flaring. *I literally can't shift. Remember? It's not like I'm choosing not to.* *You are choosing,* he insisted. *Every time you tense up, every time you panic, every time you overthink. You're choosing fear over trust.*

The full moon hung round and perfect in the sky. I stood in the middle of the park, gazing upward. Beautiful and terrifying all at once. Liam stood beside me. “Listen carefully. Shifting isn’t just about the body. It’s about the mind and control. Breathe deeply. Feel the moon above you. Let its light flow into your body.”

Still, I wanted to make the effort. “Hello ladies!” They all nodded their heads, acknowledging me. I walked over to the oldest woman weaving a blanket and put my hand on her shoulder, and tried to give my warmest smile. “Can you show me how to do that?” I asked. Again, I was given a small nod. I watched her fingers work as if they were making magic. “Wow, I don’t think I can do that! You’re amazing!” Next thing I know, all of the women were laughing. I let out a small smile, trying to hide my embarrassment. “What’s so funny?” I asked. “Nothing child, we’ve been doing this since we were pups. So we’ve had over two centuries to practice.” The old lady smiled. “Oh don’t be so hard on yourself!

“Hold it out flat. Now envision exactly what you want to happen.” I bit my lip. I thought as hard as I could, but still nothing happened. I let out a breath I hadn’t realised I’d been holding in a great huff. “It’s not working,” I whispered. “I can’t do it. I can’t shift.” “No, of course you can! Don’t say that. You’ve just forgotten how, that’s all.” “But what if I haven’t forgotten?” I blinked up at him helplessly. “What if I could never shift in the first place?”

And I could feel their warning from all the way they hid in. 'you better not hurt her.' Was the warning and I took it to heart. I will not hurt her. I would end myself first before I could ever hurt her again. The warning of the elders gave me comfort. Because if I even think of losing control, they would stop me before I could get to her. "So..." I started, only to stop to suck in a breath and lick my dry lips. "I've been trying to... Shift." Zinnia tilted her head a bit as she stared at me.

“Honey, you know you can talk to me about anything. There is nothing you can ask us.” Mom explained and I shook my head at her “Okay, well I know I need to practice more shifting but does it get easier to do?” “Yes, it will get easier the more you shift.” Justin said

I immediately decided to do better at my next training. I walked into my bedroom. This was the first time in weeks that the room wasn't as suffocating as it always was. I freshened up and sat on my bed, staring into blank space. I needed to shift, no matter how weak I am. Shifting made me strong. I clenched my fist in determination. I removed my dress and took a deep breath as I summoned all my strength then shifted. The joy that it brought compare to my last shifting was immense. The sound of bones cracking brought me a sense of belonging and security.
