"Reika! Stop fighting it!" She screams at me, fur sprouting along my arms and I feel my ankle snap painfully. I grip the table, my claws sinking into the softwood as she fights to shift. Ryker walks into the kitchen growling and my head snaps toward his face.
"I said no shifting!" He growls. I grit my teeth against the searing pain.
"I am trying not to," I tell him and I hear my wrist snap making me scream. "46!" I scream at her but she doesn't listen, instead, a menacing growl escapes my lips and rumbles out of my chest. Ryker walks over gripping my arm tightly.
"Stop," he says, and I hear my other ankle snap, my canines protruding from under my lip.
"It's not me," I tell him. He seems stunned for a second before I feel his Alpha Aura wash over me fast and hard bringing me to my knees. My wolf howls in agony.
"Give her back control!" Ryker bellows. And I look at him confused before realizing he wasn't talking to me but my wolf. My teeth clench as she tries to fight the command, sweat running down the nape of my neck when she whimpers, as his aura washes over me again making not only her cry out but me when she suddenly let's go. My wolf receded to the back of my head angrily.
My breathing evens out and Ryker's grip lessens. "Why can't you fight your wolf? She shouldn't be able to completely force you like that," he says, staring down at me.
I needed blood but if I told him that he would become angry, I had a little more strength against her with blood but saying that she also becomes stronger being as we are the same person.
"Sit!" He says and I do.
Ryker watches me from the kitchen while I sit at the table, my wolf falling silent and I could feel how angry she was with me. At this moment she hated me, hated that I didn't do what she wanted. Ryker walks over with a bowl of something before sitting next to me with one himself.
"Cereal," he says as I look at the colored little rings floating in the milk. I grab the spoon trying it, it was sweet-tasting, sugary. When I was nearly finished with the bowl Tyson and Ace walked into the kitchen and I almost choke on the milk in my mouth, coughing and spluttering. They both glare at me before grabbing the cereal and a bowl and sitting across from me. I look at Ryker who has a huge grin on his face.
Looking back at Tyson and Ace they only had bits of fluff for hair on their heads, their long hair is now gone and I could see their scalps which were so white they were almost fluorescent under the lights. A few patches of hair on their heads made them look like they had the mange. I snorted, trying to hold in my laugh.
"Traitor," Tyson says glaring at me as he shovels some cereal in his mouth. Ace's eyes watch me as he chews his cereal like he wants to attack me.
Looking at Ryker, he watches them and they both pull their eyes from me looking at him.
"I am not going to school like this," Ace growls at him.
"It'll grow back, it is only hair," I tell them.
"So you won't mind if I remove yours," Tyson spits at me.
"Touch her hair and I will pluck every hair off your body with tweezers boys. Be grateful I only removed your hair because if she hadn't told me you would have got a lot worse than bald heads," Ryker tells them.
"But look at my head, I look like cottage cheese has been smeared across my scalp, it's that white," Ace says running his hand through his tiny tufts of hair that didn't come off.
"My house, my rules, no more pranks, they aren't funny," Ryker tells them.
"And stay out of my room," They both growl before sulking while eating their cereal.
"I need to leave for a few hours, I have to go into the city and meet someone."
"Who," They ask.
"None of your business, now eat you need to watch Reika, and you touch so much as a lock of her hair, I mean it I will tweeze your entire body one hair at a time," Ryker tells them.
"We won't touch her hair, okay," But I could see the sparkle behind Tyson's eyes as he said it.
"Can I come with you?" I ask, suddenly not trusting the two teenage boys with their smirking faces.
"Not today, they won't do anything Reika, they do and they will deal with me," he says looking at them. They both nod before hopping up and taking their bowls to the sink.
"Come on then, hurry up. You can watch us play video games," Ace says waiting by the door. Ryker nods for me to go with them and I huff before hopping up.
"Oh and Reika, they try anything, you can smack them one," Ryker tells me. Ace looks up at me before looking at his brother, while I smile back at the little turd who I know was planning his revenge on me for dobbing, the smile slipping off his face at his brother's words.
"She killed a bear, I wouldn't piss her off boys," Ryker says hopping up and walking past us. I watch him leave through the front door before hearing it lock.
"Did you really kill a bear?"
"I told you yesterday I did, I ate one too, they are quite chewy," I tell him and he steps away from me.
"What?"
"Wolves don't eat bears," he says.
"They don't?" I shrug following Tyson to his room, Ace following behind me.
I sit on their bed making myself comfortable. My wolf returns but she doesn't push against me this time, instead observing the two pups playing their games.
