I did what the teacher taught me before, about taking a deep breath and letting my wolf borrow my energy… Like this!” Ella suddenly took a big, deep breath and squeezed her eyes shut, and as she did, her ears began to grow more pointed and her fingernails began to extend; the first signs of her shifting. Edrick and I both gasped as she started to shift, and I took a few steps backwards and clamped my hand over my heart. Even a little werewolf that was only Ella’s size could wreak havoc indoors, and children were notorious for not controlling
