Found by the Lycan King by Natalie Winter

Chapter 97

Zenovia

“Huh, what?” I muttered or tried to as I felt something or maybe everything shift inside of me instantly.

There was fur all over my body and I grew larger. I was now on all fours and I felt too disoriented with the changes occurring inside of me.

The clouds above were crackling with thunder and I saw them all gather above us, hiding the stars and the moon.

I felt an energy bubble inside of me, raw and carnal. I felt my bones elongate a bit more and snap in place while my vision grew sharper.

The information overload was too much to bear. I tried to shake my head and saw a long snout in front of me. I had four paws now, strong and lethal.

And when I opened my mouth, a loud, deafening growl left my lungs.

It was as if I was reborn again. Reborn as Thunder, my wolf.

Words failed me to describe the feeling I was going through. It was exhilarating, and liberating.

I lowered my head and tried to get a good understanding of the surroundings around me. My head snapped to the right when I heard a faint rustling of leaves.

I peered at the thick foliage of leaves, high up in one of the trees a few feet away from me, and noticed a bird sitting on it.

My gaze focused on it and even from this distance, I could see its varying colors of feathers-black, blue, and purple.

Its feathers glinted when it rustled in the wind and took off. The wind was blowing softly, just like the water lapping at us in the lake.

“Zenovia” I heard Callahan call out my name cautiously.

My head flicked to his face and it was as if I saw him with a new clarity. Every sharp feature of his stood out to me much more prominently.

I saw the way his eyes crinkled when he smiled at me, the fine lines disappearing in the sides and the light stubble dusted on his jawline though he was a few feet away from mè.

But the most prominent feature of his was his eyes. I could see a thousand shades of golden and honey, each and every speck highlighted in those orbs. They literally looked like liquid gold mixed with honey.

“Aww, you can’t stop staring at him with those puppy eyes, can you?” My wolf, Thunder, spoke to me in my head.

“I thought it was you who was staring at him” I teased and she blinked in surprise.

Callahan was sitting on his knees and tried reaching for us, for me. Thunder did not want to budge at first.

He saw the way Thunder was hesitating and looked us in the eye. A warm, welcoming smile appeared on his lips.

“Welcome to this world and welcome to my pack. Though there are not other members here but know that every member of my pack is valued and treasured. You would feel no different”
