Second Chances: Sapphire

New Moon

I remember as a child I was afraid of the new moon. Lycans can control their shifting. It is something we learn with time. Just like how we learn to hunt and use our new senses. There is only one night we can not control our shifting. The night of the new moon. On that night, we especially feel all the power and strength we were given with this gift from the moon gods. I know most wolves now think of us as a curse but we were proud of what we were. We became one with our beast. I think that is how wolves today have been able to ease into the process. They control their beast far easier and they can shift quickly and with less pain/bone breaking then us. The first time it happens your about fifteen and it happens without warning. You feel a jolt of pain in your entire body. First, your body feels like it's on fire and your skin burns. Your back feels like its breaking. Then your legs give out and bend the opposite way. You feel your entire body morph and get covered in fur. Your sharp fangs come out and you feel an uncontrollable urge to howl. You want to run and run until you can't anymore. Your emotions are heightened and you can almost feel your self slipping away. You're not you anymore. It is not a pleasant feeling but I was born a lycan and I know no other way. I was always loyal to our kind and it was my mate who taught me to be a better lycan. He was a natural and nothing seemed difficult for him. He was a strong fighter both in human form and his beast form. He trained me to be as good of a swordsman and overall fighter like him. I think I would be a completely different person had I not met him. I also think I was blinded by him. He could do no wrong in my eyes. I knew right from wrong and was brought up to be a good person by my parents but with him, I think I almost lost myself. I met him on the night of a new moon. I saw his beast in the distance and became enamored with him since then. He blew past the trees so effortlessly. When he stood up his demeanor was so captivating. As soon as we both shifted back to our human forms I saw him walking closer to me. I was embarrassed and shy. I wanted to cover myself but he seemed unphased by being in the nude. He was always so confident and prideful. He helped me up and kissed my hand. He told me his name and walked me over to where he had kept his clothing. He handed me his long shirt and asked me my name. I was scared to be speaking to a stranger but his voice always made me feel safe. He quickly became good friends with our clan and my father. I always remember feeling jealous. Everyone loved him. Men and women alike flocked to him. I don't think that was ever enough for him. He always seemed to still be trying to prove himself. I was never sure why.

I felt the cold air get thicker. I felt the pain grow. My back bent forward and backward. My bones cracked and the noise was always hard to bear. c***k after c***k. I let out a horrifying howl. The rope was beginning to rip and the handcuffs broke with one snap. I fell to the cold ground and howled once more. It takes almost 3 minutes to transform completely. My emotions had my beast ready to hunt. I knew the one thing I wanted more than anything was to kill that vampire passed out upstairs.

I was anxiously awaiting for this transformation to start. From what everyone made it sound like it wasn't going to be pretty. I knew I couldn't be there with her or help her in any way but I was still a nervous wreck. I wanted to run down there as soon as her screaming began. I felt my heartbreak over and over again. She was in so much pain and I could feel every bit of it. She was howling and I wanted to go see if she was okay but Henry kept telling me she would rip me apart before I could even say a word. Jessica finally woke up from her nap and asked what had happened. My men just laughed and I didn't answer her. I need to go for a walk. I told my men to watch her and watch the other vamps too. The moon wasn't visible tonight and that made my wolf feel anxious. I think it gives us great strength to see the moon in the sky. I decided to shift and go for a run.

"Where did the freaky mate go," I asked the group of idiots watching me.

"Hush it," Cole said.

"I always despised you," I told him. "Did you ever tell Christian about your mate you threw away."

"Shut your mouth, traitor," he snapped back.

"You didn't, did you," I laughed. "You sent her away instead of leaving with her and telling your Alpha to shove it."

"I sent her away because I am loyal and she would be safer and happier," Cole answered.

"And how did that work out," I said. "You love him more than your little mate."

"She died and no but I knew my place," Cole said.

"And now your alpha has a mate and you don't," I laughed even more. He came a bit closer and I took that moment to head butt him and break my restraints and run away. I heard a strange sound coming from downstairs so I went to go check it out. I opened the basement door and saw a full-fledge lycan running towards me. I tried to slam the door but it just broke it down. It was standing on top of the door as I lay underneath it. It howled louder than any howl I have ever heard in my life. I tried to push it off of me but it was no use. It hard someone coming and ran out of the house. I took this moment to run and decided I would lay low for the time being. I would fix this and get back what is rightfully mine.

I felt the wind in my fur and felt free. I let the cool air take away all my problems and just be one with my inner wolf and worry about nothing but where I was headed. I heard an unfamiliar howl in the distance. I looked around and nothing was approaching me. I felt my heart start pounding fast. I wasn't nervous or scared but I felt something. I then saw a lycan. I knew it was her but I was shocked at first. I had never seen one before and they were supposed to be a legend. She was scary looking. It was not like anything I had ever seen before. I didn't want to approach her but I wanted to see if she was okay. I tried to howl but I think she took it as a challenge and ran towards me. I howled more aggressively. I was still an alpha and had to show her my strength. She seemed unphased by this and showed me her fangs. So I showed her mine. Was it weird I was kind of turned on? I looked into her eyes and saw the most beautiful deep blue eyes I had ever seen. I shifted to my human self and stood in front of her for a second. She looked like she was going to lunge at me but didn't. Suddenly, she shifted back too. She fell to the ground and I ran to her side.

"I thought Henry said this would last the whole night," I said.

"It should have but I felt you and I wanted to hold you," she said. I pushed her down on the grass and kissed her as hard as I could. She began to scratch my back and I kissed her neck and slid my finger inside her p***y. She whimpered and moaned. I decided to move faster inside her. I lowered my kisses to her breast and bit down on them. I took her breast in my mouth and sucked on it as hard as I could. She let out a few cries that made me more aggressive. I decided to give her what she wanted and placed my hard c**k inside of her. She pulled on my hair and I bit down on her other breast. I turned her over and began to push inside of her from behind. I let my hand travel from the back of her neck, along her spine to her lower back. I smacked her ass a few times.

"Faster," she cried. I pushed my c**k deep inside of her until she moaned louder. I brought her up and let her lean on my chest. She continued to move up and down on my c**k and I moaned in delight. I moved my hand to her c**t and rubbed it as she moved her hips along with me. She was cumming and so was I.

"f**k, Sapphire!," I shouted. She collapsed on me and I picked her up and took her home.
