Shifting Methods For Beginners Novels & Stories

" I said as I gently caressed his face. His eyes slowly closed as he leaned into my hand. Almost right away I heard the sound of his bones snapping and popping. He began to whimper and cry as his bones broke then realigned. "That's it, you're doing so good!" I said, running my hand through his hair then down his back, but staying away from the center, letting my hand run along the side of his back. It would only hurt him if I touched his spine as those bones broke and realigned. So I stayed away from them, but gently ran my hand along the side of his back where I knew it would feel good and soothe him. When you first shift, the bones break, and realign slower than they do for someone like me

“Close your eyes. Feel where the wolf starts.” I did what he said. My wolf was right there, pacing, listening to his voice. “Good,” he said softly near my ear. “Now breathe in for four. Hold for four. Out for six. Slowly.” I followed his count. In, hold, out, again, again and the pacing slowed. Wowwwww, what an awesome teacher. I admit. “Picture a wall,” he said. “Build it brick by brick between you and the shift.” I tried. The first bricks crumbled. He kept talking, calmly. Ten minutes… twenty.

"I want one group over here, and another group facing them over here!" "Well, here goes nothing," Seven said as he jogged off, but I stayed on the opposite side. "Go!" Eve said, and the first two shifters ran straight into each other, and both fell backward. They yelped a bit and then went back to the end of their lines. "Anticipate what your enemy will do!" Eve yelled. "Next two, go!" The following two shifters ran toward each other, and one went high, and the other went low, using his shoulder to flip his opponent.

I asked. “Where’s the fun in that?” she asked. “Alright. So, one down, what’s next?” I asked. “Solo shift,” she said. “First, you get a friend. Next one is each of you. One at a time.” My stomach twisted into knots. I knew I had to go through the stages and do all the steps. Was I ever going to stop feeling nervous about shifting? “Kyle first,” she said. “Why did I put my pants back on?” He tugged his jeans off.

Even in wolf form he’s bigger than me. Where’s the justice in that ? He nudges me with his nose and I know he wants me to shift. I take a few breaths and prepare for the pain. Shifting is painful for anyone but you eventually build up a tolerance to it the more you shift and it becomes quicker and easier. Unless of course you are someone like me who only shifts when I absolutely have to. Then it’s slow and painful. “Nala, it’s time” I call to her here. I feel her running in my mind , quick to want to take over. She reaches forward and pain slams into me as the shift begins.

We were far from done with this bullshit, only the Goddess knew what Eden was doing as if there wasn’t a trap set for her in that damned house. “Shift back,” I finally told Leo. He instantly got back to his feet and shook his body like a real dog would. His facial expression turned extremely serious as he started making weird sounds, but nothing happened. After watching him make a fool out of himself for about two minutes, I decided to put him out of his misery. “Focus on Titus and how he looks. Imagine your claws becoming hands, face morphing into human form and so on. That’s the only way you can shift. Perfectly, try to force Titus to take control, that could make the shifting process easi

When I feel my body begin to shrink, I smile. “Now, tuck your wings into your back,” he says. “That’s the part I struggle with,” I tell him. “I think of it as folding them into a compartment, then closing the door on them so they can’t pop out again until you're ready for them,” he says, grinning. It’s a good visualization and I use it to help me pull my wings into my back. “Thanks, Iniko. You should tell Kaylani to use that visualization in her shifting class.”

“If you’re flat, you’re slow.” I adjusted, watching his eyes skim over me in quick, deliberate assessments. He moved behind me. “If someone grabs you—” His arm locked loosely around my waist, drawing me back against him. His breath was warm against my temple. “Shift, break the hold. Don’t freeze.” I followed the movement, twisting out. He caught my wrist before I got too far, pulling me back into position. “Again.” We repeated it until I could feel the shape of him behind me without looking. The next time, his hand slid from my hip to my ribs as he corrected me, his voice low. “Keep your elbows tight. You leave them open, you’re giving them space to pin you.”

“The color of your cheeks says otherwise, little star.” I rolled my eyes, shaking my head. “You’re impossible.” Peter stood, languidly stretching those long limbs. “Maybe so. But I’m also pretty good at impossible things.” He paused, seeming to consider something. “You know, I could give you some tips about shifting, if you want.” I blinked in surprise. “I’ve never told anyone this before,” he continued, “but I had trouble shifting at first, too. I hid it well, so no one found out, but it’s true. I can help you.”
