"Hmmm."
"Neo," the feminine voice growled in warning.
"Fine. Only because you should be using that magic to finish whatever is overflowing on the stove.
"Overflo-oh fucking shit!" The shriek was loud enough to force me to open my eyes, my vision washed over by the bright rays of the sun.
It had to be well into the morning, and I knew from the pounding ache in my head that I needed my pills for the sake of my own sanity. Moving only made me groan, my body sore as ever after that explosive night.
Or morning. Whatever.
I didn't feel close to refreshed. How could I after what I could only assume was three to four hours of sleep? After what surely could have been thirty hours of wakefulness, I wanted to sleep for a few months, if not a year.
So much happened that a mere recap wouldn't help me absorb it all. All I could acknowledge in my exhausted state was the fact I was alive, had mind-blowing sex with a break in between, and then explosive sex, and that I was officially a wolf shifter.
It was a bit intriguing because I didn't feel any different, but I decided to take this brief moment to try to locate my wolf in my subconsciousness, my attention searching within the depths of my mind.
It didn't take long until her eyes opened to reveal pink jewels with hints of purple and white. The longer I focused, the easier it was to pick up on the fragments of blue and gold. Her eyes were mesmerizing to look at, leaving me wishing that my eyes were the same dazzling mixture of unique coloring.
She blinked a few times, and I debated on whether to speak to her. It would be the first time ever speaking to her - the first experience that some took for granted at the age of sixteen.
Even in my male state, I wished to say something that expressed how grateful I was for her awakening. To finally be a part of our community and to prove that her arrival was about to change my life forever.
It was a great debate that left me stumped because what could possibly convey how extraordinary she was? What could express how proud I was of her perseverance to remain within me for who knew how long since her creation.
It felt like she'd been here with me the entire time, been hidden within the shadows of myself, trying to reach me, but knowing that the time wasn't right. Had she witnessed all the wrongs done to me, and been left feeling helpless because there was nothing she could do?
The paralyzing thought made me feel almost unworthy of her grace. I felt like I should have worked harder to try to find a way to unlock her majestic essence.
She took a step out of the shadows, her white fur that held tinsel strands of pink, purple, gold, and blue shimmering in the glint of illumination. Those fascinating eyes held immense wisdom, but I didn't expect her melodic voice of calm.
"You are the only one worthy of my resurrection."
Res...Resurrection?
It was a peculiar word to use when she hadn't lived before, but then again, I wasn't sure. Maybe it had to do with the Pink Moon, but until I got the chance to learn more about my heritage, I would be a blind wolf.
I can't find the words to express...my happiness.
"Unnecessary. I feel your gratitude, relief, excitement, and hopefulness for what is to come. I also feel your uncertainty about what our future holds and your fear of diving into this realm of shifters that has fought hard to silence us."Her words were wise but held a comforting power that further calmed me."With time, the truth will be revealed. Until then, take on the next set of challenges a day at a time and know I am here with you when my aid is needed."
That will be something I'll have to get used to.
For so long I'd relied on myself to face any storm that came my way. Knowing I had a second line of defense within myself was far too good to be true, and yet here I was.
"There will be plenty of time to get used to my company,"she replied."I suggest you awaken. Your company worries about you."
Right. I need to take my meds as well. You'll be here then?
"Right here. Watching. Do not fear. I will intrude only if necessary to prove our fortitude."
Thank you.
I must have fallen back asleep since it felt like I was trying to wake up once again.
"William."
It took me a moment to recognize Neo's voice, but when my brain acknowledged it, my eyes opened and stared into his hollow ones. I remained still for a hot minute, observing the depths of those hollow orbs of thrumming power.
