I felt as if hundreds of needles were inside me, there was a sharp pain in all my bone joints. I felt as if i was lying in something.

I opened my eyes. It was day time. The sun was shining. My hands were scratched, there were blood coming from some of the wounds.
My dress was totally ruined. So much for buying a pretty dress. I sighed in sadness.

Someone chuckled.
"You are hurt and you just phased, and the thing which is worrying you is your dress? "
It was a deep voice, clearly a boy was standing somewhere. My eyes got wide in embarrassment. The boy must have seen what I'm wearing.

I looked in the front then in the side..
I saw a boy of almost my age, but that boy was.....

" Oh, my god. You are the one who was staring at me",
I said in embarrassment.

Right now my clothes were everything to me.

" That charming boy would be me, of course. "
He chuckled again.
"Here take this, it might help" he said, and gave me his long TUX jacket.
I thanked God that this guy was so tall.
The coat covered up to my knees. I was now i little bit fine, considering that my body is now covered.

"Thank you, for the coat"
I said, and smiled a little. If this boy wasn't here, then i might have been roaming in the forest in my totally torn clothes.
Then my brain kicked.
" How did i got here??? And why am i like this??? Why my clothes are torn??? "
I asked him.
I was totally confused.

He frowned at me,
" Don't you remember anything Kathryn? "
He asked.

I got confused,
" What don't i remember? "
I asked
" athat's strange, well Kathryn you shifted. And just because you shifted for the first time, your clothes are torn."
he replied.

"First of all how do you know my name? And second what do you mean by shift? Like shifting your house or town or what??? "
I asked,  i was now irritated.

He stared blankly at me. Then as if remembering that i was standing there, he muttered something like 'oh hell' and asked" Do you know who I'm? " instead.

" Well no, why should i. You never introduced yourself, and it would be a big help if you tell me how do you know my name",
I asked this time raising my voice.
I was getting annoyed.
First this boy stares at me in the the party, then I'm all alone with this boy in a forest, then he is asking if i know who he is....
My whole body was burning with this sudden outburst, it felt as if i was going to blow fire out of my mouth, good idea actually, then i would be able to stop his annoying smiles and chuckles.
As if sensing my sudden outburst, he placed his hands on my shoulder.
"Calm down, i know you are confused, and you have a right to be angry seeing as you are not aware whats going on, but you need to be calm. You are a newbie, and the last thing you need is uncontrolled anger. You stay calm, and i will answer your questions. "
He said.
Just when he placed his hands on my shoulder, i felt a sense of calmness, it felt as if i was feeling his calmness, which was quiet weird, if you ask me.

" Here,  do you feel it?? "
He asked,  staring into my eyes.

" Feel what?? "
I asked.

" Oh,  come on don't do this to me.  Do you feel electricity passing through your veins???
Do you feel the calming effect in you body??
Do you feel like you have known me forever??"
He asked,  this time coming more closer to me.

The questions he asked,  the answers to all of them were true.
But why???  How can i feel this close connection to him??

"Yes,  i do. "
I answered,  drinking his forest green eyes.
So beautiful.
He is so beautiful.

" Thank you this means a lot to me. "
He said,  and gave me a true smile.
There were dimples on his face.
He looked so cute when he smiled.

After a few minutes, he withdrew his hands from me, maybe he may have realised than I'm calm enough, immediately, i felt as if a part of me was gone, which was absurd.. Right?

" OK, lets answer your question. First of all I'm Alaric Sinclair. I'm the Prince of Sinclair Pack. Now you must be wondering what exactly a Pack is. " He said.

Alaric Sinclair, i pronounced the name in my head. Well that's a great name i guess, not too long nor too old fashioned.

"Well, Alaric you have a nice name. "
I smiled at him
" Umm, thanks, but thats  just my middle name.  My first name is something else.. Alaric was historically my great grandfather's name. "
He said proudly.

" Oh, well then whats your first name? I asked curiously.

" Well, right now we don't have time for twenty questions.
And my First name....
Thats for me to know and you to dot dot dot....
Find out. "
He said,  and winked at me.
Did he seriouslly winked at me.
I gasped.
" Listen to me very carefully right now, what am i gonna say may sound like a joke, but you will have to believe me. I thought that your parents might have told you something,  but maybe i was wrong. No biggies.  So are we clear?? "
He asked me.

I wondered what it was, just a second ago he was all charming and teasing, and now he is serious???
God what is happening to me??
I wonder.

" Yeah, i guess. So now say what you wanted to say."
Isaid.

" Well you must be facing body pains since the past few months???? He asked me.

Did he really...

" How do you know that? Never mind, i guess y-yeah, I-I-I'm facing body pain especially in the b-b-bones" i replied, clattering my teeth.. I was shocked,  by all the information this boy seemed to have.

" I thought so."
He said, then started to think of something.
i wondered what was he thinking about.
After a few seconds he said" well the reason behind your pain is that, your body has been adjusting for a new lifestyle or i would say new body."
"I-I-I'm-"
I started to say something  but then he beat me to it.

" You will be able to ask whatever you want, but first let me finish what i have to say, alright? "
He said,  holding my hands.

Seeing the seriousness in his eyes, i just nodded.

" The thing is, the world you see around you is the just a normal one. This earth is filled with a lot of mythical creatures, and you are one of them. You are 16 and thats the age around which  people start showing powers
Although in case of werewolf,  we usually have our first shirt by the age of 15 years.. Don't know what took you so long. " he said.

Curiously i asked, " what am i? A werewolf?? "
" Yes, you are a werewolf kathryn, a whitenight. " he said staring at me in the eyes.
