And for the first time in years, 1 obeyed I let him take over.

My body convulsed, bones snapping and reshaping in grotesque harmony.! had almost forgotten this pain associated with the shift, but now that I am reliving it? 1 could feel myself breaking, to only form into something more darker, deadlier and merciless.

My claws twitched, my body ready to pounce.
