Lila’s POV
Valentine bowed her head to me, a smile playing on her long mouth and her white, razor-sharp, teeth
being revealed. She was big and glorious; I had never seen anything like her before. This place was so
life-like and incredible as well. I could practically feel the mist of the ocean on my features and the light
breeze brushing through my hair.
It felt so freeing as I could finally breathe. There was no pain and there were no anxieties. It was just
happiness and love all around me. Most importantly, there was my wolf right in front of my eyes.
“Valentina…” I whispered, running my hand down her soft fur, allowing it to tickle my palms. I had no
idea having a wolf would feel like this. I already loved her so much.
“You are so beautiful, Lila. I’m so glad to finally meet you. I’ve been waiting to appear for some time
now…” she paused. “But I couldn’t…”
It was surreal; her mouth wasn’t moving when she spoke, but I could hear her words echoing in my
mind.
“The wolfbane,” I told her. “It was keeping you locked away.”
I wanted to say more to her; I wanted to spend more time with her. But I felt a cold cloth being draped
over my head, taking me away from the warmth of this beach. Darkness began to close around, and my
wolf started to disappear. Panic set in and I reached my hand out to grasp for her, but I only got a fist
full of air.
“Valentina!” I cried to her.
But it was too late; my eyes opened, and I was gasping for air, sitting up in the infirmary bed. The nurse
was standing over me, looking startled.
“I’m sorry, what did you say?” The nurse asked, appearing worried. “You passed out; you were getting
warm. I thought you might be getting a fever.”
Tears burned in my eyes.

“She’s gone…” I whispered hoarsely. “She’s gone…”

I couldn’t keep the tears from escaping; soon, they were streaming down my face.
“Oh dear…” she said, narrowing her eyes at me. “Who’s gone? What happened?”
“My…my…” I stammered. I couldn’t even get the words out of my mouth.
I hiccupped as more tears soaked my features. Closing my eyes tightly as I mourned the loss of my wolf.
This wasn’t fair… I just got her. Why was she taken from me so soon? What had happened?
“Don’t cry, Lila… I’m not gone. I’m here…” I heard her voice roaming through my mind, echoing as it did
before.
My eyes shot open as I looked around the room. I didn’t see her.
“If you close your eyes and envision me… you’ll see me. But you’ll always be able to hear me. Soon,
you’ll be able to shift into me. But I must warn you. Your first shift will be incredibly painful. There’s so
much for us both to learn.”
“Valentina…” I spoke into my mind; my own words echoing through my head.
I could hear my wolf chuckle.
“You can call me Val if it’s easier. I’m so glad to finally be here. I can see the world through your eyes. I
can experience everything you experience.”
My heart was beating heavily in my chest. I wasn’t sure I could contain it. I had a wolf; I finally had a
wolf.
“Lila?” The nurse said, still staring at me with concern. “Are you okay?”
“Yes,” I answer right away. “I’m more than okay. I finally have my wolf.”
She looked shocked by the news; covering her mouth with her hands as she gasped.
“What? Are you sure?”
“Yes!” I said, tears falling from my eyes. This time, they were tears of pure happiness and bliss. My heart
was so overjoyed.
“I’m calling your parents right away,” she told me. “It can’t wait much longer. Oh, Lila, this is incredible
news. Wait right here.”
I wasn’t going anywhere; I wasn’t even sure I could walk straight at this point. This was so
overwhelming; I wasn’t even sure what to do with myself. I couldn’t wait to tell my family. I couldn’t wait
to tell my friends. I couldn’t wait to tell—
Professor Enzo popped into my mind and my heart skipped a beat. Why did I want to tell him anything?
It’s not like he would care. Though, that meant I would be able to participate fully in his class. That
meant I would be even stronger.
Does this also mean I could get my Volana abilities?
I had so many questions, and I felt like I didn’t have enough time.
“Yes, it’s true!” The nurse said happily into the phone. “I’ll let her talk to you now, Alpha!”
She went to me with a phone; I knew my father was on the other end.
“Hi dad,” I said cheerfully.
“My daughter finally got her wolf!” My dad boasted. “Oh, Lila bean. This is incredible news. We need to
celebrate. Your mother wants to make dinner this coming weekend. Would you be able to come home?”
“I can make that happen,” I told him.
