Chapter LEXI: What now
Now they want out. The pain is striking every nerve in my body. I cry out as my private area burns and Lilly tries to keep me calm. But i can't breathe. I clutch blanket that lays under me. Another wave hits me and the world goes black.
Did I die? No I can feel pain. I start to wake up to the sound of tiny whimpers and suckling. I look down to see two small black pups feeding between.... black fur. My black fur oh goddess I shifted. "Lilly are you there? How did this happen?" I'm in awe and Lilly purs.
"I told you I'd protect us. You passed out. I could feel you and the pups dying. I couldn't let that happen." I smile to myself. Lilly is the best wolf the goddess could give me. "I'm the lucky one, Lexi." Lilly beams. I look back at my now sleeping pups. They are beautiful. I want to hold them and before i realize whats happening my bones begin to realign.
I sit on the ground naked and sticky as I lift my pups in my arms. Theh snuggle into me and I smile. A boy and a girl. "Silas and Elizabet" I coo. I gently lay them back down and go to wash up and put clothes on. "How will they shift back." I ask Lilly.
She hums in thought before she speaks. " I don't know. I've never seen pups born in their furs before." I sigh. Hopefully they shift back on their own. If not I'll have to breech our hide out and go in search of Aunt Laila.
I return to our pups and curl my body around them. Nobody will harm them. " I'll kill whoever tries." Lilly growls. I nod in agreement. I wonder if our mate will reject us if we ever find them. Maybe they'll understand and want us anyways. I smiel at the possibility and let sleep take me.
******************************
The sound of the barn door creaking open wakes me uo. The pios whimper as I slid from aroudn them. I watch as they blindly find eahc other and curl in. I smile to myself before a loud bang brings me back to the intruder. "Do you smell anything? It is them?" I ask Lilly.
She begins to sniff the air and the salty smell of humans and something else assault our nose. At least six of them. "We should tell them to leave." I slowly peek over the loft and see six teens with beer bottles in hand. "Do you really think they'll listen to a 13 year old girl." Lilly huffs and rolls her eyes.
She's right. Going down there in human form will just put the pups at risk. "Ok so we scare them then. Maybe so bad they never come back." I smile mischievously. Lilly yips in excitement. She loves showing off her Alpha strength and now we get to shift.
We slowly creep down the ladder and shift in a dark stall. Lilly begins to growl menacingly from the shadows. "What the fuck is that." A tall boy with sandy blonde hair asks nervously. The group looks around scared. "Cut it out Trent, thats not funny." A pretty brunette says but moves closer to him.
The boys stand and place each girl behind them. Lilly growls again from the shadows and steps out. "Bro, is that a wolf!" A jock looking boy gasps. "Or a fucking bear, its huge." A ditsy blonde echos. Lilly snaps her jaws and lunges forward. Causing the group to scurry out the door.
"A bear! Can you believe that!" Lilly huffs in disgust. I giggle at her annoyance. I giggle as I shift back and start picking up the bottles. " I mean we are much larger then a normal wolf. Maybe shes never seen a bear." I laugh and snort. Lilly huffs and slumps down in the back of our mind.
Hopefully that was enough to keep them away. Yet now I fear they'd bring more next time.
