Kate’s POV
Just as Dimitri had informed me,
He had informed Lia also.
“We will be jogging for only 10 minutes starting from today, the rest of the time will just be for meditation which will be taking 20 minutes and Visualization 30 minutes.
The transformation process will still be continued at night” Lia had said as we stepped into the Cabin.
The Alarm set off 10 minutes after we started jogging
We took our sit and started meditating immediately.
And 20 minutes after the Alarm set off again.
Since the day I have started this visualization exercises there has been no day I successfully transformed into my wolf form.
That might also be the reason I couldn’t transform in my real life.
And with Dimitri in the picture, I must put in more effort,
I must not appear weak, if I don’t want that cold fellow to eat me up alive.
Then I relaxed my body.
Sit upright and begin with the visualization.
I closed my eyes,
It’s a cold night in a dense, foggy forest, with tall trees that extends towards the sky. It’s a serene forest, the bird chirping, flying from trees to trees, the breeze blown back my hair. On me is a white flowing gown that dances to the gentle breeze.
I stood in a wide clearing between the giant Trees.
I stood still then close my eyes and focus all my energy on my inner strength. And I felt my body waken, my hands tremble, and my breath fasten.
my smell sharpens, my hearing increases, my muscles tremble and flexes.
My muscles lengthens, my bones breaking and reforming which sent shivers through my veins.
The pain
Furs started to grow on my body, The pain intensify as my back arched which made me to fall on my knees and hands.
My face elongates and covered in furs.
The pain increases as though my body is tearing apart.
I fell to the ground and opened my eyes.
I was sweating profusely but I wasn’t feeling heat,
What had happened in the visualization
I felt so real that all my body aches,
Lia also opened her eyes,
How was it, she asked.
I guess I’m getting better, I answered.
There were no figures or any obstacles this time around, I continued.
Just that was more painful that it weakens all my body and I fell, I landed.
Okay No problem you are getting better, she said.
Once the Alpha starts helping you, you would get better, she added.
Were you reporting everything about the training to him, I asked.
No, I only explained to Beta Louis yesterday when he enquired about how your transformation process has been , Lia said
The Alpha must have found out from him, she added.
Okay then, I replied.
We both stood up and head out of the cabin.

I decided to visit the pack garden to get some more herbs and also say hello to Gareth who I haven’t seen in a while.
Hello Luna, Gareth greeted me with a smile on his face immediately he spotted me.
Hello Gareth, I responded.
It’s been awhile here, I said looking round the garden.
Yes it is, he replied.
Perhaps you’ve been busy with your recovery process, he added.
Yes, I have,
Even though my effort to transform into my wolf form is actually harder than I had thought, I added.
You just have to take it slow, he said.
But I didn’t find it has difficult has this when I first transformed, I continued
And then I was weak due to the effect of the Wolfsbane in my blood stream, I added.
With the Wolfsbane in your bloodstream you shouldn’t be able to transform at all but your wolf must be a very strong to be able to transform, Gareth responded.
The slow in transformation you’re facing right now might be due to the long time suppression and then the obstacles you have faced, he continues.
Oh wait, for you not to be with your first Fated Mate, it means he rejects you, he said turning to me and looked into my eyes searching for confirmation.
Yes actually, I responded
I found out when on my Eighteen birthday, he is My Father’s Beta, I continues.
But he didn’t accept me perhaps he doesn’t want to be mated to a Weak half breed, I said rolling my eyes.
Then the rejection must have contributed to the pain now, Gareth said.
So you need help of your New Mate, to make the transformation process more easy, he concluded.
Okay, I said.
Can you get me more Moonstone Mint and Shape Shifters Sage the one I have finished the ones I had, I requested.
Let me also give you another rare herbs that can help you recover your strength, he said.
We both stepped into the hidden garden and he went ahead to get me the herbs.
Here it is my Luna, he handed over the herb for me,
Here is the Wolf’s Claw Root it will help to increase your strength and resilience, he said.
Thank Gareth for helping me on my recovery journey, I said with a slight bow.
You are welcome My Luna, he replied.
I will always be here, if you need any help, he added with a smile.

It’s night already,
Dimitri hasn’t showed up,
I sat by the window and into the dark view of the night,
Today is the full moon, and I could hear the distance howls in the woods,
The crickets chirping and the bird chirping.
Should I go and call him, I asked Lyka who is also waiting in anticipation for what the night might bring.
Then there came a knock from the other side of the door
That’s is our Mate, Lyka said in excitement.
Dimitri walked in, Are you ready he asked.
Yes I am.
He turned on his heel and stepped out,
While I walked closely beside him.
As we reached the first time floor, we met Sarah on her way,
Good evening My Alpha, she greeted Dimitri flirtatiously and rubs her hand through his chest.
Dimitri growled and held her to the walls,
Don’t you ever touch me like that again, he snapped.
I have never caught a sight of him like this,
I became frightened,
Of course I’ve heard of his violent nature but I never thought he is too his pack members.
He released her and strode past her,
That b*tch deserves more, Lyka said.
Really he shouldn’t handle a woman like that, I said.
He must have been warning her before now, Lyka replied.
Are you actually defending his actions right now,
So if he treats me like that,
You will also support him, I said.
Lyka couldn’t respond to my question,
As she kept mute,
You’re unbelievable, I said.
We head toward the back of the pack house, then into the woods.
Here is okay, he turns to face.
Kate you have to relax your body.
Connect with your inner strength,
Know that you have it in you.
Let your wolf take control and don’t fight it.
Dimitri said with a calm voice I never taught he has.
My hands started to itch
And then I knew it’s beginning.
The itching grew more intense
Then it spread through my palms then up to my arms and then to my face, my neck, my chest, my knees, and the my entire body.
The muscles of my wrist snaps, I let out a soft scream and then followed by the muscles in my fingers, they started reshaping.
And then the bones in my ankle broke followed by my Knees.
It doesn’t hurt as much as it used to probably because I had gone through the same process several times or probably because my Mate is present.
I fell to my side and the pain starts to build up.
Dimitri watch me closely as I gaze into his eye,
He gave me a slight nod to encourage me.
My back arched the pain became more intense that it sent shivers through my spine,
I let out a loud scream
Then my face sprout out,
You’re getting there, Dimitri said.
Just let your wolf take full control, he added.
My face contorted and my teeth start growing into a long sharp canines,
The pain now seems to be unbearable,
As it doubles.
Make it stop, I am dying
I screamed
No you’re not, it will stop soon.
You’re almost done, Dimitri said.
I lie down there, the pain growing more intense,
Dimitri move closer to me,
Rubs his hands down my back.
He sat down beside me,
I placed my head on his leg,
Please don’t leave me, I said.
I won’t, he said.
Then furs start sprouting from my body,
The pain grew again.
A burning itch grew as the furs keeps sprouting.
I closed my eyes as though it would stop the itching,
But it didn’t…
Yes this is it Kate, Lyka said.
You’re almost done.
I kept my eyes shot.
And then I let out another scream as the pain grew more intense.
Dimitri’s presence seem not to have anymore effects
My eyes shot open and then I’m in my full form but very weak to stand on my paw.
The pain then starts to gather in one area my heart as though it’s sucking in all the pain.
Dimitri let out a soft sigh
Yes you’ve done it Kate, you’ve done it, he said.
Now all you have to do is stand on your feet and take your first step.
As I want to stand on my paw,
I fell back to the floor and fainted.
