Immortal HER and Mortal HIM: finding Lucifer and concurring love

Chapter 3: First shift

Isla's POV

2 years later

The day Luca attacked me was the day I met my wolf nevaeh. As I was not 18 yet I could not shift but I could communicate with her, and I had all capabilities of a lycan such as strength, speed, excellent eye sight, hearing and smell. So the day after my 16th birthday I was able to start my training. Which I was currently doing or at least I was trying. I was so lost in thoughts I did not see fist coming straight at my face until I was laying on my back staring at my mother's unamused face. "Isla where is your head at today? You should have been able to block that hit like you have done a million times before" she asks as she helps me up. I sigh and walk towards where our water bottles and towels lay on the grass. I take my bottle and drain about half before I answer her. "I don't know mom. I think I am just a little nervous for tonight. You know being able to shift for the first time and coming into my angel and demon powers at the same time" she smiles and loops her arm with mine as we head back to the castle before the packs morning training starts "you know i was also nervous my first time shifting and receiving my angel powers" I laugh and say "well that makes me feel a whole lot better" she shoves me with her shoulder and says "but your grandmother told me to trust in Rose, because she knew what she was doing and that she would guide me through the change. And she was right. So honey, tonight when it is time you need to trust nevaeh and do what she says"

"mom is right you know. All you have to do is listen and do not fight it otherwise it will be a long night for the both of us" nevaeh pipped in. When I focus back on mom she has a knowing smile on her face "what did she say?" she asks. I laugh and start walking again "she said that you are right and that I should not fight the change otherwise it will be a long night"

After I have taken a shower and ate breakfast I decided to take a nap as I will need all my energy for tonight.

"Go for it girly. You are going to need it." nevaeh says while she curls up in a ball in my mind to take a nap of her own "sweet dreams girly" she says as I lay down "sweet dreams Vaeh" and I let sleep consume me.

"wake up girly it's time" nevaeh wakes me up. Once I am fully awake I can feel I am burning up and body is aching . I slowly get out of bed and mind link my mom

"hey mom, it's time" I say she immediately replies "OK honey, I am with your grandparents we will meet you out back" I cut the link and I quickly make my way out back because I know I will not be able to stand let alone walk in the next few minutes because the pain has gone from a dull aching to a excruciating throbbing in a few minutes. As I make it outside I see my family already waiting for me but as I take a step towards them my legs give out from under me and I fall to the ground.

" relax girly. Don't fight it. Just keep breathing." nevaeh says. I close my eyes I focus on my breathing after I few minutes I start to feel my bones shift "that's it girly. You are doing so good just a few more minutes, now I want you to picture me. Focus on me, on what I look like, what color my fur is, the color of my eyes." nevaeh says I start to picture her white fur, her black ears her black tail and her violet eyes. Once I see her standing in my mind I realize the pain has gone." open your eyes girly! You did it! You have shifted" she says with excitement in her voice. As I open my eyes and go to take a step forward I fall down. As I look I see two huge white paws instead of my feet and I hear nevaeh giggle " it's going to take some getting used to walking on for legs instead of two, why don't you let me show you how it's done?" I laugh in my head in give her control. As soon as she has control she jumps up looks at our family who are standing in their wolf form, she yips once at them turns around and bolts into the forest. I can hear our family trying to keep up with us but I don't slow her down as this is her first run and she deserves to stretch her leg after being coped up in my mind for 2 years. After a few hours of running and jumping nevaeh finally heads back to the castle. As I exit the forest I can see my mom and grandparents sitting on the ground each with a empty water bottle in front of them. I stop a few feet in front of them and ask nevaeh "Vaeh how do I shift back?" she giggles "the same way you shift into me silly. Just picture yourself in your humam form and you will shift back" she replies with a yawn. I close my eyes and picture my 5.2ft frame, my long brown hair, my Grey eyes. My hands and my feet. When the feeling of my bones rearranging stops I open my eyes and I am back in my human form. As I stand there getting used to being back on two feet my mom stands to give me a hug and says "nevaeh is absolutely stunning. And fast we could hardly keep up with you two" I laugh and say " I know she is beautiful, I heard you guys turn back about halfway through our run. How long did we run for?" my grandpa laughs and says "you ran about 4 hours, we turned back about 2 and a half hours in, when we realized you won't be stopping anytime soon" I am shocked at how long we ran "no wonder I am so tired" I say with a yawn just as I am about to say goodnight nevaeh says "it's time" as soon as the words leave her mouth I start to feel a tingling sensation across my body. When I look at my mom I can see that they have all taken a step back and their eyes are fixated on my hands as I look down at my hands I see my hands are glowing orange as if the are on fire as I am looking at my hands I start to feel a pressure in my back that builds quickly and then disappears as I look up when I hear the shocked gasps coming from my family and I see the are focused behind me. Looking over shoulder I make out what looks be wings and I ask "are those wings?" when nobody answers me I ask again "mom do I have wings?" that seems to bring my mom out of her shocked state and she says "yes darling, you have wings and the are just as beautiful as you and nevaeh" not understanding what is going on I ask nevaeh "why do I have wings? When my mom is also part angel but she does not have wings?" I feel nevaeh share control with me to explain why I have wings but my mom has not. In a voice that can only be described as a combination of mine and nevaeh's voice she says " we have wings because we are both an angel and a demon. Legend has it that an Angel hybrid and a demon will be fated together and of that union children will be born that is stronger than anyone can imagine. As these children is both angel and demon, the two halves have merged making them the perfect balance between good and evil" as my family takes in the new information my brother who is standing a few feet behind my mom and grandparents asks in a small voice "so we would either be evil or we would be good?" as the tears stream down his face I can feel nevaeh heart break as she looks at our brother crying and she kneels down and catches him as he runs into her open arms. She gives him a tight hug and says " it is said that people will try to turn them evil but all will fail as they have a side that is the purest of pure... The Lycan" she gives him one last hug before she retreats back into my mind. As I stand there hugging my brother my mom finally speaks "well that was a lot of new information, why don't we all go to bed and we can talk about it all tomorrow morning?" we all agree and head back to our rooms for much needed sleep.
