Mated To The Lycan King

Chapter 99

Miranda POV

My eyes snapped open and I sat up in bed. I felt hot, burning hot. I needed to shift. I don't want to die. I need to shift. I felt my heart in my throat as panic sat in. How am I going to shift? How is this done? What am I going to do?

"Hey, hey, hey. Easy love." I heard Brent and I turned to where his voice was coming from. I looked him up and down and took a deep breath. My eyes widened and I let out a playful growl like purr. My hand clamped over my mouth and I heard him chuckle.

"What was that?" I asked aloud.

"That was me." Seraphine was in my mind.

My hands covered my ears because it was weird sounding. It was loud but not really loud all at the same time. It was like she was standing right next to me, but she was in my head.

"Woah." I frowned. "That is going to take some getting used to." I heard her laugh in my mind and it made my eyes widen.

"Take a deep breath through your nose. One, I want to smell him and see if we need to wait to shift for his scent. Two, I don't want you to hypervenalate." Seraphine told me.

I took a deep breath through my nose and the only thing I could smell was the cranberry handwash, cleaner, and the fabric softener from the sheets. "Drats. But look at him. He is handsome. Come on, let's work on shifting."

I looked across the room at Brent and he was looking over me slowly. "Hi, sorry." I apologized to him.

"It's okay. I know it can feel overwhelming." He motioned for me to follow him. "Come on, let's get you something to eat. You need to have full strength tonight when you shift."

"Why tonight? Why can't I try after we eat?" I walked with him.

"You can use the moon's energy to help with your shifting." Brent pulled my chair out and I sat in it.

I watched him walk around the table and sit across from me. I looked down at the table and there was a giant covered dish. I pulled the top off after he did and a plate of cheesy scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits smothered in gravy, hashbrowns, and a giant bowl of mixed fruit. Off to the side, I lifted another top off of a dish and there sat three large pancakes covered with syrup. There was no way I would be able to eat all of this.

"Oh yes, yes we can." Seraphine told me.

We ate and talked about what I should expect when I shift or attempt to shift tonight. I wouldn't be alone in shifting. Brent will be by my side, as well as Avalynn and Everest will be there for support too. If I am successful tonight, we will go for a run and then tomorrow will be my crowning ceremony.

I went for another bite of pancake and frowned when I realized everything was completely gone. I made a pouting face and heard Brent chuckle. "Still hungry?" He asked and I nodded my head to him.

He snapped his fingers and another plate of food was brought out to me.

"I don't understand how I can eat all of this." I sighed as I lifted off the cover, revealing eggs, bacon, and toast. "I feel like I am eating for five people."

"It's normal to eat a lot. You burn three or four times more calories as a Lycan than a human. I was unsure how much you would eat on your first day, but it looks like you have a normal and healthy appetite. That is great news and promising. It means that your body and your Lycan are accepting one another. Which means when you shift it may be easier to do so. Do you have any questions about your first shift?" He took a large bite out of the sausage and biscuit sandwich, chewing as he looked across the table at me.

"Uh, let me think about it." I chewed my food slowly and thought about whether I had any questions. I had read a lot before this all happened. I wanted to be well educated about what would be going on with my body.

"Take all the time you need. I will try to answer your questions the best way that I can." He smiled at me and continued to eat.

I racked my brain as I ate. "Oh, I have something." I swallowed my food. "How bad does it hurt to shift for the first time?"
