CHAPTER TEN

Shayla

Shayla could hear so many voices. It sounded like somebody was having a party while she tried to sleep. “Ugh, so loud,” she mumbled, in her sleepy haze.

She felt soft lips being pressed against her neck and opened her eyes. It was dark in the room, but she could see everything. Even though she couldn’t feel anything on her face, she was sure this was what looking through night goggles would be like. She rolled over and came face to face with Adam. He gently pushed her hair back from her face, and leaned in placing a soft kiss on her lips. Shayla noted that this kiss felt different from before—more intense. Shayla brought her hands up to the back of his head and twined her fingers in his hair at the base of his neck as she deepened the kiss. Adam groaned into her mouth making her sigh.

Shayla had the overwhelming desire to get closer to him, so she wiggled her body as close to him as she could get. She felt like her body was on fire and she needed Adam to put it out, but Adam apparently had other plans. He took her wrists in his hands and pulled her hands down and away from his hair, then he pulled his head back, separating their mouths and ending their scorching kiss. Shayla groaned, making Adam chuckle.

“How are you feeling?” he asked her, then kissed the tip of her nose.

“Well, I was feeling pretty great until you pulled away and ruined my fun.”

“Trust me, it wasn’t easy, but we need to make sure you’re okay. That is what’s most important right now.”

“I feel great. Better than I ever have, actually. How long was I asleep?”

Adam’s face changed. He looked nervous. “You’ve been asleep for more than two days.”

Shayla’s eyes grew wide with shock. “Does that mean…”

“That you’ll be as strong or stronger than me,” Adam interrupted, reading her thoughts before she could get the words out. “Yes. Or at least that is the way this usually works, and since your transition isn’t complete…”

It was Shayla who cut him off this time. “Wait—what?”

“When it is complete, you will shift for the first time. It’s not something we consciously do the first time around. It’s instinctual. Since you haven’t shifted yet, your change hasn’t completed. Considering you’ve already surpassed the time it took for my change to complete, there is no telling how strong you’re going to be in the end. Even if you were to shift right now, it has still been more than forty-eight hours.”

Shayla narrowed her eyes at him. His voice was becoming louder, higher-pitched, his eyes were dilated, and she could tell his was fighting to hold back a smile. He was excited. “You’re happy about this, aren’t you?”

Adam sat up and she followed his lead, then he took both of her hands in his. “I never wanted this for you, Shay, and I still have no intentions of letting you fight anyone, but I
