"I told you to use that spell" she said

"I couldn't he was aggressive towards me" I said through a mind link to her

"You, need to change back, but first in the woods because your going to need clothes" she said out loud

"You aren't listening to me Hope, he caused this" I growled in my mind to her

"I get it, Jed is an ass, but please we need to teach you control, you need an anchor find one" she said

I huffed and rushed towards the forest to shift back, but when I reached the woods I for some reason couldn't shift back. Hope had met me at the tree but she looked at me as if she were waiting.

"Hope I...I can't change back" I said panicked

"What do you mean you can't shift back?" she asked

"I mean I can't fricking change back, what am I going to do, I'll be a wolf forever won't I, just great" I panicked

"Shh, calm down littlest wolf, we will figure it all out, let me make a call and talk to a few people first, then we can see if what this is" she said and began to walk off but I stomped my foot to stop her

"What?" she asked

"I...I can't be here alone" I whined

"Your going to have to wait here, don't do anything stupid while I'm gone, your going to be fine, we will figure this all out" she said

And with that she walked away from me, I trotted deeper into the woods that surrounded the school. This way I wouldn't have to look at the idiots who piss me off more when it comes to my anger. Of course that wasn't the best choice either because I found myself wondering and ending up somewhere I didn't know. I walked up the steps of the abandoned old looking building and began to explore. That was until I heard a branch snap causing me to spin around and growl at whoever or whatever it was. I watched as Lizzie put her hands up in surrender and stopped moving until I stopped growling.

"I umm, you must be trinity in wolf form" she said causing me to nod

"well, I guess I should warn you that people are going to start getting ready for the party soon, but hope also said that you were struggling with turning back to human, I think I have a theory as to why" she said

I lay down on my belly so that she could know that I wasn't a threat to her in the moment. she stepped closer to me and sat beside me with a soft and distant look on her face.

"I think it's because you fear it, fear turning back and losing control again and having to leave I also think it could be because you want an anchor so badly but you don't know who to use as one because trust me I know how hard that is, when I was little it was slightly easier to control but the more teen emotions I got and older I got the harder it became for me, now everyone calls me a freak and emotional wreck one step from another meltdown kind of person, honestly I hate it and if it weren't for Josie it would be so much harder, but maybe it could also be because your hurting inside and you want to punish yourself in a way for what you did I know because I do it all the time" she said

I put my head on her lap and she smiled softly before petting me gently.

"Your really soft by the way" she said with a soft smile

I felt myself shifting back slowly, the talk with Lizzie was nice and comforting. Maybe it was easier to shift back now because she calmed me down in a way. When I shifted back I snapped my fingers so I was no longer naked.

"Thank you Lizzie, for what you said I really appreciate it" I said helping her stand once more

"Oh no problem, but don't tell anyone please" she said

"It's our little secret then" I said to which she nodded

"Are you coming to the little party tonight?" She asked

"Yeah if your going" I said

"Yeah I'll be there with Josie and the new guy Rafe" she said with a blush

I sigh softly, I didn't have a chance with her, she's not gay or bisexual I can tell that. I nodded and quickly bid her a goodbye and rushed off to hide in my room away from others for the time being. I dont know why it hurt when Lizzie talked about Rafe that way, she was into guys it was obvious. I was bisexual and she was far from it, but it's not like I had a chance anyway. I sat down against the headboard and pulled out the book hope gave me on the way here. I was so far into it when hope stormed into the room rage filled expression on her face. I set the book aside and looked up at her with nervous eyes.

"What happened? Are you alright? Did someone hurt you?" I asked

"Landon he's human I mean he doesn't pass any of the tests and it's angering me he pisses me off it's just" she rambled

"You have a crush hope, trust me I totally understand that and your taking it as anger instead but keep trying I know you desperately want him to stay and maybe if we dig deep enough into his life, his past and his present then we can find out more" I said hopeful that she would agree

"Yeah that's a good plan, we dig deeper get more information so we can figure it out" she said more so trying to convince herself than she was me

"We can go to that party" I said
