everyone was really bummed.” He said it like it
was no big deal.
    “Ya,
and now they stab me in the heart, and kill me so they can control me,” I said
angrily as I sat back down. “I have to come up with a way to get them off my
back. I don’t want to be trapped in that place doing whatever they say. I’m
weak as a human. Oliver is almost impossible to defeat. I highly doubt Aubrey
will change me back into a vampire, so I am basically screwed.”
    He
was silent for a minute as he watched me. “What about becoming a werewolf? We
are strong, and if I turn you, you have to remain in the pack until you are
mature. Drake won’t be able to turn you over without going against pack law,
and he won’t do that.”
    I
looked at him a little surprised by his offer. I didn’t even consider turning
into a werewolf. It seemed a little less glamorous then being a vampire, but if
it was my only choice I would do it. “How long does it take for me to turn?”
    He
shrugged. “The full moon is tomorrow night. You will be really sick and weak
until then, but like I said Drake will have to keep you here.”
    I
didn’t like the idea of being sick and weak. Technically all they had to do was
kill me to turn me back human. I wasn’t entirely sure it would be a good idea.
I had to try something. The worst that would happen is they would turn me back.
If I made it through I would be strong again. “Ok, let’s try it,” I said trying
to sound as confident as possible. The truth was I wasn’t confident. I knew
turning into any type of were animal was painful. I had to think about what I
wanted, and that was to be able to help Cornelius.
    He
stood up and stripped his pants off. I looked away, and he laughed. “Sorry
babe, I have to change, and clothes get in the way.”
    “It’s
fine,” I said softly. I was trying not to lose my nerve.
    I
heard him groan, and I looked back over at him. He was shifting. It was
actually a scary sight. His body was twisting and cracking as his bones shifted
to take form of a wolf. I felt a little sick watching the whole thing. I could
only imagine how painful it was. He finally completely shifted. He stood in
front of me in wolf form. I knew he was going to have to bite me. I offered him
my hand. He quickly moved forward and bit my hand. I cussed and pulled my hand
away. The bite burned like crazy. I was suddenly extremely hot. It was like all
the air had left the room, and the heat was turned up at the same time. I felt
like I couldn’t breathe. The room started to spin. It was working like poison.
I could feel my body burning, and it was radiating from the bite on my hand. I
fell to the floor, and everything went black.

 
    “This
was the dumbest thing you could have done!” Drake’s angry voice filled my head.
    “I’m
sorry, she wanted to be strong again. I didn’t know what else to do,” Tommy
said sounding apologetic.
    I
wanted to open my eyes and defend Tommy, but my eyes felt so heavy. My body was
still burning, and I wanted to scream, but I was paralyzed. The pain was worse
than I imagined. I hadn’t even shifted yet, and it was unbearable. I was
beginning to think this wasn’t such a good idea.
    “Lillian,”
Drake’s cool voice filled my head. I could feel his hand on my arm. He was
shaking me like he was trying to wake me up.
    I
forced myself to open my eyes. They felt so heavy. I didn’t want to open them,
but I had to. “Drake,” I rasped. My throat was dry. I was freezing and burning
up at the same time.
    “Don’t
fight it, it will pass soon,” he said as he brushed my hair out of my face. He
looked concerned like he didn’t like that I was in so much pain.
    My
vision was blurry. I wasn’t sure if it was from the change, or if I was crying.
“It hurts,” I rasped.
    “It
will, but it will pass and you will feel better,” he whispered trying to sooth
me.
    There
was no consoling me. I was scared and in pain. My body felt like it was being
torn apart. I just wanted it
