Shifting into my wolf form was a sweet relief.
My stress melted away. The pressures and responsibilities of being
thrust into the role of alpha shed from me as my fur grew and my muscles
lengthened and thickened.

As soon as I emerged from the moonway, brushing through the thick
dark foliage in the forest, I stripped and shifted, leaving a puddle of clothing
on the leaf litter. My muscles coiled then released, my paws on the mulchy
undergrowth like thunder in the silent woods. Every stride pounded away
my anger and fear, muting it. At least for now.
The Lakehouse was a distant speck on the far side of the lake. Often I
swam across, but today I needed to run. The path through the forest was not
discernible to the fae eye, but as a wolf, the trail was clear, a track of
familiar scents I knew like the back of my paw. I’d trodden it a thousand
times.
When I emerged from the forest, the Lakehouse looked somber and still,
as black and dead as my heart. If there was one thing I’d learned these past
few months, it was that danger lurked everywhere. Even here at the
Lakehouse, the sanctuary for me and my four best friends, the other heirs to
the thrones in the Realm of Verda…Even here, I couldn’t relax.
I climbed the stairs to the Lakehouse deck, shifting into fae form. It
used to be fun, and I’d set myself challenges. Could I transform while
running? Could I shift while swimming? While climbing stairs?
Like everything else, I now knew how stupid and childish that was.
The
ability to change forms wasn’t a game but a war skill, every bit as important
as my claws and fangs and as valuable as my know-how with the sword.
I stood momentarily on the deck, staring across the black lake. Its
surface was perfectly still, like a glass mirror reflecting back the stars. The
trees lining the shore reached for the sky, their piney scent mingling with
damp earth and moss. In that moment, it seemed like I could dive in and
swim down, down, plunging the depths, and never reaching the bottom.The house behind me was just as dark, the floor-to-ceiling glass
windows reflecting that same sliver of moon in their black surface.
In fae form, my responsibilities dragged on me, and the pit of heat in
my belly started to flame. I was naked, of course. Nudity didn’t bother me
—I used to love seeing the look of shock on my friends’ faces. Even my
best buddies, the other heirs to the thrones of Verda, always reacted
strongly. A smirk, a laugh, a scowl. I did anything to steal their attention.
