Chapter Eleven: Transformation
The day draws to change.
Transformation is his fate.
Monster, he will be.
It took a full night of arguing for Emily to convince Victor of the terms that she and Luna had agreed upon. By the next morning, Luna had received a call from her mother that she was able to watch over the Medina house until Luis had become a werewolf. It seemed that both of them were happy that this stand still had appeared reached an end, but neither of them expected it to be as peaceful as it seemed. When Luis heard the news during their time at school, he couldn’t be more ecstatic. It was like he had his very own guardian angel watching over him.
Luna finally believed that revealing to Luis that she was, being half-witch and half-werewolf, was the best thing that could ever happen in their relationship. They had become much closer as a couple and completely trusting about one another. There were no more secrets about her second life; she could be completely out in the open with him about everything that would go on. Every day seemed to become easier and easier for them.
For the next two weeks, Luna spent the majority of her time with Luis. During the daylight hours, the two of them seemed to be always talking with each other. Then they would part ways, only for a little while, as they each went to their respective houses. As soon as Luna got home, she would start her school work. One of the conditions of the deal that Luna had to agree to was that all of her homework had to be finished before she could leave the house, no matter whatever her reason was. Lately, math had been her hardest subject. It wasn’t entirely her fault though; with every new teacher came a new lesson and a new learning and teaching style. Unfortunately, the different styles didn’t seem to mesh too well. There were a few times where she had to call Chelsea for help, which was always up to chance if she was really able to help. If she was able to understand what was going on, she would help Luna with no problem. However, if she didn’t understand the problem, she would have to leave suddenly and not answer her phone for another hour.
There would always be a grin on her face when she finished her homework. It was just another task that had to be completed, and it would only have to last for a little while. With the remainder of the time, she would get some food into her system. When she got the okay by Emily (who seemed to be the parent in charge of her these days) to leave the house, she shot out like a bullet. Under the cover of night, Luna would go through the streets and straight to Luis’s as fast as she could. Even when she was in her human form, Luna had the same kind of stamina as her wolf alter-ego. In one huge jump, she was able to jump over the Medina’s eight foot fence without even breaking a sweat. His backyard was covered with bushes, making it the perfect hideaway for a werewolf that didn’t wish to be seen by the naked eye.
Under the cover of darkness (and away from prying eyes) Luna stripped her clothing and transformed. There were nights where Luis stared out of his window for an hour, keeping an eye on Luna. He had gotten used to seeing Luna in her wolf form and found her as a creature filled with majesty. A few times, late at night, he would go into the back yard and simply sit down on a lawn chair with Luna next to him. Besides brushing his fingers through her fur coating, he didn’t purposely treat her like someone would a domestic animal. The two of them would sit in silence for hours on end, staring at the stars and the waxing moon, counting down the phases until it would be completely filled.
It was now the date of the waxing gibbous phase of the moon, the day before the night of the full moon. Their nightly routine had only slightly changed, due mostly because school had been let out for the entire Thanksgiving week. Luis was planning on staying up the entire night with Luna, enjoying his last memories as a simple, weak human being.
A few minutes had passed the midnight hour and an idea had popped into Luis’s head. It was the perfect way to cap off his last normal night. He turned to Luna, who sat diligently by his side.
“Luna,” Luis called out in a soft voice. Luna’s wolf-head pivoted to look at Luis. “How about you turn into your human form for the rest of the night? I doubt that Ms. Ramirez would come near this place, even if you were in your human form. You don’t want to just sit in silence, do you?”
Before Luna let out a happy nod her tail had begun to wag rapidly. Luis went back inside, giving Luna some privacy to transform and to get her clothes on. As soon as Luna knew that Luis was in a place where he couldn’t possibly peep at her, she ran into the bush where she had hid her clothes. She transformed back into a human and quickly dressed herself. Luna hurried back to her spot with a smile on her face. Noticing that Luna was returning, Luis went back outside. The two of them shared the same chair, Luna awkwardly sitting on Luis’s knee. Neither of them could predict how much trouble they would be in trouble if Luis’s parents had suddenly woken up and seen the two of them outside so late at night.
That was when the idea popped into their head at the same time. In a second they embraced each other, both of the lips kissing the others. Luis had placed his hand around Luna’s breast, causing Luna to jump, but she didn’t protest. She liked the feeling that someone out there in the world had found her attractive in that fashion. It wasn’t complete lust that she was after, it was absolute attraction.
Their kissing riot continued and Luis massaged both of Luna’s breasts. Luna let out a few, quiet squeals, tightening herself around Luis. The both of them felt absolutely ready for this. Luna trailed her tongue off of Luis’s lips and onto his cheek. Luis felt a tiny pinch where Luna’s lips where. Luna sucked on the area for a minute and then released her teeth from where she decided to bite him. This wasn’t a bite that would turn him into a werewolf; it was more as practice in her eyes, or, that was how she justified her action. Her lips receded their way back to Luis’s lips as one of his hands traveled from her chest to her behind.
