woke to Elias climbing into bed with me.  The sun was only\njust rising and he was coming back home after spending most of the\nnight in his four legged form.  It had been nearly a month since\nour first meeting in the woods as man and wolf, and it was the middle\nof the next lunar cycle and the full moon would be rising again tonight.I usually sleep so soundly that I wouldn't notice him\ncoming to bed, and he would take care not to wake me so he wouldn't\ndisturb my sleep.  I actually preferred it when I did wake up\nbecause I loved that early morning cuddle with him as he drifted off to\nsleep and I drifted right back to sleep with him.  He usually slid\nin and put his back against me and I would would turn and spoon with him as we fell\nasleep together.I rolled over to face him and put my arm around him and found that he was facing me this time with a big smile on his face.\"Morning,\" he said, as he leaned in and kissed me.\"Hiya.  Did you have a good night out on the prowl?\" I asked.He\nnodded and said, \"It was fine.  It's a bit boring sometimes.\n I miss you when I'm out there.  I get lonely.  I was\nthinking about you a lot this morning.  I wished you were out\nthere with me so we could fuck.  I never get enough of you.\"I grinned and said, \"The feeling is mutual.\"He\nmoved in for another kiss, but this time it had more passion behind it.\n As I parted my lips to accept his tongue, I pulled him into me\nand right away I noticed he'd come to bed naked and had a raging hard\non.  He was obviously feeling horny still and wanted some action.I\nreally never get tired of sex with Elias and I don't see how I ever\ncould.  I feel like the luckiest guy in the world most of the\ntime, but in the morning when he's like this we have some of the best\nsex of all.  The powerful, animal lust he feels as the wolf seems\nto linger for a while just after he changes back to a boy again and it\ncarries into our lovemaking sessions when we do it in the morning.As\na seventeen year old boy with a body that would never advance beyond\nthat of a fit fourteen year old, his energy is boundless and that suits\nme just fine.  I could never have imagined my sex life being\nanything like this before I met Elias.  The only thing I liked\nbetter than being ravaged by a massive, beautiful wolf, was being\nravaged by this amazingly beautiful boy.  He pushed every button I\nhad no matter what shape he was in and he made me feel hornier than I'd\never been in my life.  All of that was intensified by the powerful\nlove I felt for him.  He was the world to me and I could not get\nenough of him.He pushed me over on my back and then crawled up\nonto me as he put his hands on either side of my face and looked me in\nthe eyes and said, \"I love you so much,\" then leaned his face in to\nkiss me deeply again.  I wrapped my arms around him and plunged my\ntongue into his mouth as my desire for him began to grow rapidly.We\nnecked passionately for quite a while and I moved my hands to the sides\nof his face as I desperately tried to drive my tongue further into his\nmouth.  He took my hands from his face and pinned them up over my\nhead on the pillow and he began to groan and breath more rapidly as he\nstarted to grind his hard cock against me and plunged his tongue back\ninto my mouth, slurping and sucking as if he wanted to get every drop\nof my saliva.  I moaned as my cock rapidly inflated to full\nrigidity beneath him.  He was going at me with such intensity it\nwas obvious this was not gonna be a slow and gentle love making\nsession.  He was feeling extreme heat and he was going to let it\ncarry him away.  I love when he gets like this.He pulled\nhis face back and smiled down at me and said, \"You make me so fucking\nhorny I can't describe it.  You're so big and manly and furry I\njust want to rub myself against you until my body absorbs into yours.\n You make my head spin.\"I grinned as he moved his face\nback in and kissed me again, then rubbed his cheek lovingly against\nmine.  He moved down and sucked briefly at my neck, then\nmoved further down and rubbed the side of his face around on my thick, soft chest\nhair.  He was really feeling that need for physical contact.\n It must get lonely for him running around as the wolf for the\nwhole night having to stay well away from people and hidden from view.\n My heart ached a bit for him.  I wished I could spend my\nnights out there running along side him but it just wouldn't work.\n I wouldn't be able to hold down my job if I spent the whole night\nrunning around in the woods.  I couldn't keep up with him anyhow.He\nlatched onto one of my nipples with his mouth and sucked hard for a\nminute while rubbing at the other with his thumb, sending waves of\nwonderful electricity straight to my groin, and then he moved on downward\nand kissed me along the treasure trail of soft body hair leading down\npast my navel to my underwear.  He kissed my throbbing cock\nthrough my briefs and then turned his head to the side and rubbed his face\nagainst my boner.  I moaned and my hands went down to the soft\nbrown hair on his head and I held it and ground my crotch against his\nface, feeling my lust building fast.He\nstarted to breathe\nfaster as his desire built up and his patience with the foreplay waned.\n He reached up and grabbed the waist band of my underpants and\nlifted them up over my big cock head and yanked them down my legs and\noff.  The blankets went off the bed with him as he worked himself\ndownward to\npull my briefs off and threw them aside.  He came back up and\ndrove his face right back into my crotch and snuffled and kissed and\nlicked at every inch of me down there.  He licked at my big nuts\nand rubbed his face in my pubes and licked the shaft of my cock and\nthen slurped my fat cock head into his mouth and began to bob his head\nup\nand down as he sucked me hard.  I moaned and put my hands on the\nback of his head again and began to thrust my hips up at his face.\n I wasn't going to last long at all.  When he wants me this\nbad I only want him more and as much as I would like it to last\nforever, I couldn't control my driving need to shoot my load into him.I\nbucked harder at him until I could feel my cock head pushing at the\nback of his throat and my lust for him began to bring my nuts to a\nboil.  The orgasm quickly spun up and out and I was wracked with a\npowerful spasm as I grunted and forced his head down onto my cock\nhard enough to push it into his throat.  My balls tightened up and squeezed my load of cum up my\nthrobbing shaft to explode out my expanding cock head into his throat.\n He moaned and pulled his head back until my cock nearly came out\nof his mouth and as I tried to buck up into him to shoot again he\npushed down on my hips with one hand while putting his other around the\nshaft of my cock and he sucked hard.\"Ahhh, fuck!\" I shouted as\nanother spasm hit me and a long spurt of cum shot out onto his tongue.\n He wanted to taste every drop and he didn't want me shooting into\nhis throat.  I held his head as he began to jack his hand up and\ndown the thick shaft of my cock and continued to suck as hard as he\ncould.  I shot rope after rope of thick cum onto his tongue as my\nbody jerked and clenched from the power of the orgasm and he moaned as\nhe swirled the big load around in his mouth and then swallowed every drop of semen I fed him.  I started to come\ndown from the powerful high of the orgasm just as he was reaching the\npeak of his lust for me.He pulled his head off my cock and then\nreached down and lifted my thighs up and pushed my knees towards\nmy chest.  I grabbed the backs of my knees to keep my legs up as\nhe drove his face back in and began to lustily tongue my asshole while\nhis nose bumped against my furry nuts.  He was drooling and\nmoaning and pushing his saliva into my rectum as my anus continued to\npulse out the last of my orgasm.  He spat on his fingers and\nquickly wet the head of his cock and spat again to wet the shaft, then\nhe got into position and pressed the head against my anus and began to\npush.  I relaxed and pushed outward slightly to let him in and he\nplunged himself deep into me as my still pulsing sphincter grabbed on\ntightly to the shaft of his throbbing cock.He groaned and\nimmediately pulled back and thrust forward again, quickly building up a\nrhythm as he stared down at my body with hungry eyes and focused on the\nsight of his young tool plunging into me over and over again.  He\nwas fucking his man and he was not holding back.  The sensation of\nhis cock head slamming at my prostate as the shaft of his penis rubbed\nagainst the myriad of sensitive nerves in my anus began to build my\norgasm back up again even before it could die off completely.  I\ngroaned as my body began to spasm again as if it was trying to pump out\neven more cum, but I had shot everything I had.  The sensation of\nmy anus clenching against his tool brought him quickly to the edge and\nhe put his hands against the backs of my thick thighs and he leaned his\nhead back, opened-mouthed and moaning more loudly as he bucked faster\nand faster.  Finally he shouted out as he slammed hard into me and\nhis body jerked and the first wave of the orgasm hit him.  He\nclenched as his seed squirted out of him and into my rectum, then\nhe bucked and clenched and grunted again and shot another stream of his\ncum into me.  Again and again he slammed against me to shoot his\nspunk as deep into me as he could while his intense orgasm played out.Both\nof us came back down in unison as his bucking slowed and he pushed\nhimself deep into me and held the position for a minute, then finally\npulled out of me and let my legs drop back down on either side of him\nas he grinned at me.  He reached back behind him and grabbed the\nblankets and pulled them up with him as he crawled back up onto me and\nthen wrapped his arms around my neck and sighed his satisfaction.Neither\nof us said another word.  He fell asleep in minutes as he lay atop\nme and I lovingly rubbed his naked back under the warm covers.  I\ndrifted off to sleep again shortly after he did.I woke several\nhours later with him lying beside me, one arm over my chest and a leg\nhooked over me.  I gently extricated myself and went to the\nbathroom to relieve myself, then down to the kitchen to have a light\nbreakfast.  It would be hours before Elias got up and I had lots\nof chores to take care of to fill the day while I waited to see him\nagain.A\nmonth had passed since that first time that I'd video recorded our\nfirst ever sexual encounter with him in his wolf form.  Since then we've gotten together several times to do it in\nthe woods.\n I can't seem to get enough of Elias in either form, but there's a\ncertain unique, base, animal pleasure in being taken by him when he's a\nwolf.  As much as I am versatile, even leaning more towards being\na top in the past, when he's a wolf and I'm a man I absolutely love to\nbe his bitch.  The feeling of being deeply subordinate to that\nmassive, furry, dangerous, and amazingly beautiful creature is the most\nsatisfying experience I've ever had in my life.I'd\ngone back to work two weeks ago\nand had a lot to catch up on and two new contracts to deal with.  I worked late several nights to get caught up.The\nconstruction of the panic room was taking a lot longer than expected.\n I couldn't complain too much, as the contractor had been kind\nenough to agree to doing it in the evenings to begin with, but it\nturned out some of his employees would not be available so he had to do\nmost of the work by himself.  He'd done a good job on it.\n There was no chance that Elias could\never get through the metal walls and door even if he did fly into a\nrage against me in the middle of a change.  The corrugated metal\nsections had been attached to the\nexisting frame over the drywall, ceiling and floor, and welded together\nto form a solid box.  It was then covered over with laminated,\nfiberglass reinforced plywood and painted to look just like a normal\nroom.  A metal door frame had been welded to the box and a large\nmetal door was hung in it.  Large deadbolts driven by solenoids\ncame in from the walls right through the thick metal frame to engage\nthe door from either side and the top, to make the door effectively a\nsolid part of the metal box when the locks would be in place.  It\nwas more or less complete now, but they hadn't yet wired in the\nelectronics, which were sort of critical for the whole thing to work\nproperly for us.  We'd already furnished it with a small table in\nthe corner with one of the Tasers on a charger and a can of bear spray\nsitting on it.  We'd added a small sofa that pulls out to be a bed\nif needed.  The rest of the room was open with a large, deep pile\nrug that would be comfortable for a big wolf to curl up on.Elias\nwouldn't be able to use the room until it was finished and I'd then\nwired in my own customization to the finished lock mechanisms.  I\nbuilt a simple circuit using an Arduino that would allow the wolf to\nuse his nose to tap out a pattern on four large, touch sensitive plates\nto unlatch the locks on the door so he would be able to push it open\nand come out if he wanted to, once he was back in control again.\n The monster he was when he was in between boy and wolf during the\nchange would not have the capacity to work the lock mechanism, and the\npattern was complex enough that he wouldn't have a chance in a million\nto accidentally get it right.  We'd tested the prototype and it\nworked just great.  I would install it to replace the keypad after\nthe electronic lock system was installed by the contractor.  Their\nelectronics expert would not be available to finish the job for another\nweek or so, but the rest of the room was ready.  It would take\nthem at least another week after that to wire in the UPS system, the\ncontrol panel for the intercom and video systems, hook up all of the\ncameras, and finally wire in the keyless lock mechanisms for the door.\n The room wouldn't be ready for at least two more weeks, maybe\nlonger.After\nthat first video we'd made a month ago, Elias had suggested we take one\nof\nhim when he was in the process of changing.  We had planned on\nwaiting until the panic room was finished to simply set up the video\ncamera in there, but the weeks of delays getting the room finished were\ndriving Elias nuts.  He wanted to see the\nprocess happen and he didn't want to wait for the room since we didn't\nknow for sure how much longer that would take.  He convinced me to\nlet him do the recording out in the woods during the first half of the\nlunar cycle while the panic room was still under construction.  He\nwould need to be alone which meant he needed\nto be able to work the camera himself, so the only time to do it would\nbe right at sunset just like the first video we'd made.  I felt we\nneeded to be more careful,\nbut Elias really wanted this, and we'd gone another month without\nincident even though we'd been screwing around together a lot out\nthere, so I\nagreed we were OK to do this one last thing.   I really wanted to\nsee the process myself, too.  Elias would set up the camera on the\ntripod while\nstill in boy form and hit the record button just before the change\nstarted and then he would get into position and wait for the change to\nhit.  We wanted to wait until he was going to be a wolf for a\ncouple of hours at least so I could head out there after and gather up\nthe gear and bring it back home.  We were cursed with bad weather\nagain last weekend and even though the weather had improved into the\nweek we'd decided to leave it until the weekend so I wouldn't have to\ngo to work the day after.Today\nis Saturday, and tonight would be the full moon.  We\nwere ready for him to take the video recording and it looked like the\nweather was going to be perfect for it.  He was anxious to see the\nvideo and for the first time ever watch himself go through the change.\n I was anxious too, but for different reasons.  I wasn't sure\nif I could handle seeing him going through that, but with him next to\nme as we watched I figured I would probably be OK.Elias got up\na bit earlier than usual.  Usually we like him to get at least\neight or nine hours of sleep to ensure there'd be no chance of him\ngetting tired and sleepy just before the change and possibly be asleep\non the couch or something when it happens.  There would be no\ndanger of that today since he was so worked up about taking the video\nso it would be fine.  I made him breakfast and then we went out to\nride our bikes for the day.  We came back and ordered Thai food\nfor a late supper, then finally the time approached and he gathered\neverything together and headed out to the river valley on his bike.I\nfollowed just before sunset.  I would be riding there while he was\ngoing through the change so I wouldn't be anywhere nearby until just\nafter\nhe was done.  I would come into the clearing and we could screw\naround\na bit before I took the gear and headed back home.  I had\noriginally planned on not going out until a half hour later, but I\ndecided I was more comfortable being on the trail and heading in even\nwhile Elias was changing in the clearing.  That way I could ensure\nthere was\nnobody else on the trail.  If there was, I could make sure they\ndidn't go off into the woods.  We needed to be as careful as we\ncould.  Once we got through this there would be no more screwing\naround in the woods for us.  The panic room would be ready in a\nfew weeks and we could just mess around at home from then on.I\nwas on my\nbike and heading down the path deeper into the river valley when I saw\na flash of sunlight between the trees and I slowed down.  I'd left\na bit too early and the sun was still just above the edge of the\nhorizon and still going down.  Somewhere else on the horizon the\nmoon was already coming up, but Elias wouldn't change until the sun\nactually set.  I needed to hang back and give enough time for the\nchange to finish before I showed up.  I wanted to get there while\nthere was still a lot of light left so we could enjoy each other better\nwithout me having to fumble around in the dark.  Since the video\ncamera would already be set up and rolling we could make another fun\nsex tape of ourselves.  I was looking forward to it.  I\ncasually rode\nalong at a\nslow pace, smiling as I thought about how in just minutes a giant wolf\nwould push me over, mount me, and shove his massive cock into me as he\nhumps away at me and breeds me and shows me that I belong to him and\nnobody else.The quality of the light seemed\nto suddenly shift more towards grey and I knew that the sun had finally\ngone down and I increased my pace just a bit.  It would take me\nseveral minutes to get through the woods to the clearing so Elias would\nbe finished the change by the time I got there.  I headed toward\nthe spot where I would turn off into the trees to lock up my bike when\nI suddenly heard a faint, high-pitched scream.  I slammed on the\nbrakes and skidded to a stop on the trail and strained to listened as\nmy heart hammered in my chest.  Was that Elias?  Was he\nscreaming in pain from the change?  Somehow it didn't sound like\nhis voice, but I wasn't sure if he would sound anything like himself or\nnot.I wasn't sure what to do.I\nheard a roar that sounded\nmore like an enraged animal, again it was fairly faint.  It had to\nbe coming from the clearing deep in the woods.  That time it had\nto be Elias.  It must have been him screaming earlier too.\n The change was underway and he was reacting to the pain.  It\nhadn't occurred to\nme that it would be audible from way out here on the trail, but at\nleast it was fairly faint so it wouldn't carry much farther, and there didn't appear to be anyone else\naround to hear it.  I\ngot off my bike and began to walk it into the woods to find a tree to\nlock it to while I gave some time for Elias to settle into wolf form.\n By the time I locked it up and start heading towards\nthe clearing the change would be over and he would be ready for me.Before I even found a tree to lock the bike to, I heard a scream again, higher pitched like the first time, and my\nheart nearly leaped from my throat.  That wasn't Elias!  I\nheard the roar of rage again and then I heard someone shout, \"No, don't\nhurt me!\" followed by a scream of pain.I let my bike fall over\nas I began a mad dash towards the clearing.  Someone must have\ncome across Elias when he was in the process of changing!  Fuck!I\nran faster, almost tripping over low brush and getting scratched as I\npushed my way through tree branches in my rush to try to get there.\n I wasn't sure what I could do but I had to try to help them.\n Before I got to the clearing, Elias suddenly bounded out of the\ntrees in front of me and knocked me down.\"Elias!  What the\nfuck happened?  Who's back there?\" I shouted as I scrambled to get\nback up and started to run towards the clearing again.I didn't get far before Elias reached me from behind and knocked me down again.\"What the hell are you doing?!\" I yelled as I moved to get up again.Even\nbefore I could get back to my feet he growled and pushed me down and\nput his weight on me to keep me down.  He wasn't going to let me\nget up.  I suddenly heard a roar of pain coming from ahead, in the\ndirection of the clearing, and I understood.  Someone was changing\nin there.  Elias must have bitten them while he was changing!\n That was the shout of pain that I'd heard.  Now they were\ngoing through the change themselves.  Jesus Christ!  How\ncould we have been so careless?My mind reeled.  We had to\nget to them before they ran away.  We couldn't let them be like\nElias was, lost and alone and trying to figure out what had happened to\nthem on their own.  We had to get to them and explain!I\nstruggled to try to get free, but Elias would not let me up.  I\nheard another roar from towards the clearing, but this time it sounded\nless like pain, and more like anger.\"Please, Elias, we have to\nget to them.  Think of how you felt after you changed and didn't\nknow what the hell to do!  They're gonna be in the same boat!\n We have to get to them to try to explain.  It's our fault\nthis is happening to them!\" I pleaded.He growled and held me\ndown.  He wasn't going to risk me getting torn apart by the raging monster that\nwas now thrashing around in the clearing out there.  We heard a sound\nmore like a soft whine coming from the clearing and finally Elias got\noff me and bounded back toward the sound.  I quickly got up and\nfollowed him.  I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, but by the\ntime I crashed out of the trees and into the clearing there was no sign\nof Elias or the other wolf we'd heard.  They must have run off in their panic and Elias must have gone\nafter them to try to catch them.  I looked around to try to figure\nout which way they'd gone, but I realized there was no way I could\ncatch up to them anyhow.I saw the camera set up on its tripod\nand still recording.  Out in front of it I saw the neat stack of\nElias's clothing and his shoes, and out beyond that I saw a large tree\nwith blood along its trunk.  I moved towards it and saw some torn\nclothing on the ground.  There was a small pair of shoes, one on\nits side and the other half torn and bloody.  My heart sank as I\nnoticed they were small enough to belong to a child.  Beyond the\nshoes were the tatters of more clothing with blood on them.  Fuck,\nwe had to find him!\"Elias!\" I shouted at the top of my lungs.I\nwaited, but there was no response.  It suddenly occurred to me\nthat the camera was still recording.  I turned and ran over to it\nand stopped it, then I used the menu to find the file and selected it,\nthen pressed the play button and watched the small screen.\n Suddenly the clearing came up on the screen and\nElias walked into the frame fully clothed.  He turned to face the\ncamera and smiled and said, \"Hi, Jake.  I love you.  What's\nthat?  You want me to take my clothes off for you?  Why, I'd\nlove to!\"  He grinned and kicked off his shoes, then slipped one\nsock off, then the other, and put them in his shoes.  Then he\npushed down his shorts and stepped out of them, folded them neatly and\nset them down on his shoes.  He was still wearing his briefs and I\ncould see that he was getting erect.  He pulled his t-shirt up\nover his head revealing his beautiful, fit torso, then he folded the\nshirt and put it on top of his shorts.  He turned back to the\ncamera and smiled as he began to rub at his growing erection through his underwear.\"I\ndon't usually get turned on by this, but knowing you're watching is\nsort of doing something for me,\" he said to the camera and he grinned\nas he reached up\nand rubbed his nipple while rubbing at his crotch.  He then very\nslowly and very deliberately, as if to tease me more, pulled the front\nof his briefs\naway from his body with his left hand then reached in and began to play\nwith his cock inside them so I couldn't see what he was doing as he\nsoftly moaned.  He then smiled at the camera as he slowly pulled\nhis underwear\ndown and his beautiful, stiff young tool sprang free.  He slowly\npushed his briefs down past his knees then let them slip down his legs\nto the ground and as they fell at his\nankles he stepped out of them.  Then he turned around and very slowly\nbent over to pick them up, showing me his tight ass in the process.\n While still bent over, he looked back at the camera and he ran his\nfinger up and down his butt crack and fingered his hole lightly as he\nsaid, \"I sure wish you were here\nright now.  I want that big cock of yours in me,\" and then he\npicked up the briefs and neatly folded them and\nset them down\non the pile of clothes.  He turned back to the camera and grinned\nas\nhe took his young tool in hand and began to stroke it.Ordinarily\nI'd be all over watching that but I had to find out what happened next.\n I hit fast forward and saw his hand become a blur as he\nworked his cock until I finally saw his head tilt back and his mouth\nopen as his orgasm hit him and he shot his spunk out onto the ground in\nfast motion.  I kept going at high speed as he smiled and sat down cross-legged on the ground\nand waited for the change.  I saw his lips moving like he was\nsaying things to me while he waited, then suddenly I saw him stand\nagain and double over and I hit the play button to slow the video down\nto normal speed again.He grunted as a spasm of pain hit him and\nthen he straightened again.  He cried out and doubled over again,\nthen went down to his knees and started moaning and almost crying as I\nbegan to see something happening under his skin.  I saw movement\njust below the surface of his skin as though his internals were\nbeginning to rearrange themselves.  He grunted in pain again and I\nsaw his rib cage suddenly cave in from the sides while it began to\nexpand from back to front.  It was becoming narrower, but deeper\nlike a wolf's.  At the same time I saw his head begin to change\nshape and he cried out again as his hands came up and he held his head\nin pain.  His face began to morph right before my eyes, becoming\nlonger and narrower while the top of his skull became flatter and his\nears began to grow longer and change shape to become more pointed.He\nwas alternating between crying and groaning in pain as he fell to his\nhands and knees and the change continued.  His whole body seemed\nalmost to be expanding now like it was building up to explode.\n His feet began to stretch and fuse and grow longer as his toes\nbegan to get bigger.  The front of his feet started to take the\nshape of a paw while the foot itself stretched out and the heel came\nback and upward to become one of the joints of his back leg a third of\nthe way up.  His knees moved upward as his legs stretched up.\n They were getting narrower as they stretched, more like a wolf's\nlegs than the thicker legs of a human.  The same thing was\nhappening to his arms.  His hands began to stretch impossibly long\nwhile his fingers became thicker and shorter and morphed into the shape\nof a paw.  His thumbs became his dew claws higher up the insides of\nwhat were now becoming his front legs.His head continued to\nchange shape and become longer as his whole body grew.  His ears\nmigrated slowly backward and higher up as their shape changed more and\nmore towards looking almost like a rat's ears.  In fact, now when\nI looked at the whole picture, he seemed more like he was changing into\na giant, hairless rat.  A pinkish tail had sprouted from his tail bone and\nwas growing longer and thicker at the same time.  He was still\nchanging fast.  He'd stopped groaning or crying out now.  It\nwas almost as if he'd lost the ability to make any sort of sound while\nhis neck and head were going through such a major change, though I\nthought I heard the occasional whimper.His lips pulled back and\nhis teeth began to take the shape of a wolf's as his muzzle continued\nto grow.  He was starting to look extremely dangerous now.\n He was lean and muscular and almost the full shape of the wolf\ncomplete with the sharp teeth, but he wasn't quite there yet.\n Suddenly he roared in anger at no one in particular as he\nregained his voice.  At the same time I saw his skin darkening and,\nquite suddenly, fur began to sprout from it.  The beautiful pattern\nof his fur began to take shape as his coat rapidly grew in.  His\ntail became bushy and the fringe of thicker fur around his jowls grew\neven more quickly than the rest of his coat.He was very nearly\ndone changing, though I could still see some movement under his skin\nlike bones were moving into their final position when I heard a voice\nsay, \"Elias!  Are you OK, boy?  Are you hurt?\"My\nheart\njumped and my stomach did a flip as I immediately recognized the voice.\n Little Cole suddenly came into the picture as he limped up beside\nElias as if to try to help him, but it wasn't Elias yet.  The wolf\nroared and lunged toward the boy even before Cole reached him.\n His jaws came down on Cole's arm and the boy screamed as he\npulled back and his skin tore and blood began to pour from his wound.\n He instinctively turned and moved as fast as he could towards the\ntrees.  Cole couldn't move fast due to his bad limp, but Elias\nwasn't quite fully functional yet and was still having some trouble\nmoving as well.Cole\nsaw that he wasn't going to be able to\noutrun the monster\nand he jumped at the big tree at the back of the clearing and began to\nclimb it.  Smart kid.  It was his only chance to get to\nsafety.  Unfortunately it was difficult for him since he could\nonly use his hands to pull himself up and his one good leg to push\nwith.  The monster reached him before he could\nquite get far enough up to be out of range.  Elias-wolf snatched\nat Cole's foot, but\ncame away with a torn, bloody shoe as he ripped it off along with some\nof Cole's skin and the boy screamed in fear and pain.  He looked back at the monster that was\ntrying to pull him out of the tree and yelled \"No!  Don't hurt\nme!\"Then, as Cole scrambled to get higher up by pushing\noff a branch with his good leg,\nElias-wolf roared and lunged upward once last time, putting as much\nforce into his jump as he could, and his jaws came down on the boy\nagain, this time clamping onto his slim calf muscle.  Cole\nscreamed in pain again but he had his arms wrapped around a tree branch and\nthey were locked in place.  Elias-wolf tore a part of the muscle\nand took it down with him as he fell back to the base of the tree.\n Cole was crying now and in great pain as blood began to flow\nfreely from the bad gash in his calf.  He struggle to get higher\nas Elias lunged again, but the boy was out of his reach now.The\nwolf snarled and bit at the tree in a mad rage.  He looked like a\nrabid dog ready to tear apart anything that moved.  Then,\nsuddenly,\nElias seemed to start to come to his senses again.  He shook his\nhead several times and paced around in a small circle and finally\nslowed to a stop, looking like he was completely in control again.\n Then he\nseemed to notice the blood and the torn shoe for the first time.\n He sniffed at it curiously, then he heard the boy's crying and he\nlooked up the tree.\n His tail wagged in recognition when he saw Cole, then he seemed\nto suddenly\nrealize what he'd done and I saw his whole body tense up and then he\nwhined again.Cole was crying, but he'd noticed that Elias was no longer trying to get at him and was wagging his tail.\"Why\ndid you hurt me?\" the boy asked through his tears, and Elias whined\nagain and brought his tail between his legs and hunkered down onto his belly.Suddenly,\nCole seemed to jerk a couple of times like he'd been hit with a bad\nmuscle spasm, then he tensed and grimaced in pain as he was hit with\nsuch a hard spasm that he lost his grip and fell out of the tree,\nhitting a large branch as he came down with enough force to crack\nseveral ribs as he spun and fell the rest of the way, nearly landing\nright on top of Elias.  He began to thrash\non the ground.  Elias whined and moved towards him, but the boy\nbegan to work his way backwards along the ground to try to get away as the pain of the\nchange began to take him over.  My heart was racing as I watched\nthe poor kid start to be ravaged by a change he did not understand.\n He was in incredible pain but he was just enough himself to still\nbe afraid of Elias and what he'd done to him.Elias seemed to hesitate, not sure\nwhat to do, then he looked back past the camera, then turned and ran.\n He must have realized that Cole was going to change now and there was no way to stop that.\n He'd been bitten by Elias before the change was complete and he'd\nbeen cursed.  There was nothing Elias could do for him now.\n If he stayed he would only enrage the beast that Cole would\nbecome before changing into the wolf and Elias would be forced to\ndefend himself as the thing attacked him.  He had no choice but to\nmake himself scarce until the change was complete and Cole was back in\nhis right mind, but in the shape of a wolf.  Elias must have\nthought of me at that point.  That was why he'd looked back past\nthe camera.  He must have realized I'd be on my way to meet him\nand the still changing Cole would be a danger to me.I\nwatched\nin horror as Cole's first ever change continued in front of the camera.\n It was a bit harder to see in detail as he was a lot further back\nat the base of the big tree, but it looked much harder than Elias's\nchange.  It was obvious that Cole was frightened and didn't know\nwhat the hell was happening to him.  He was thrashing and moving\naround and even tried to get up once when his legs were nowhere near\nready to carry him yet.  He cried out and groaned and sobbed as\nhis body was wracked with pain and he began to expand at an alarming\nrate.  His clothing stretched and tore and burst from his body as\nhis shape continued to change.  He went through it the same way\nthat Elias did, but he would fall over on his side and writhe, then\nflip over and try to get up while in a panic, only to fall gain.  My heart broke as\nI watched him suffer through the long and agonizing transition that\nplayed out exactly as Elias's had, but with Cole full of terror at\nevery moment, not understanding why he was going through this.Finally, it was nearly over, and what stood in front\nof the camera was a beautiful, smaller version of Elias, but instead of\ntans and browns and cream colors, Cole was white, grey and black.\n The wolf whined, and paced back and forth, then bolted off into\nthe forest in a panic, still not fully Cole, but almost fully a wolf\nand able to move fast.Nothing\nhappened for a while, so I hit\nfast forward again and let it zip along until finally I saw Elias-wolf come into\nthe picture and I hit play again.  Elias sniffed around and\nimmediately got wind of which direction Cole had gone and he followed\ninto the woods.  With any luck he would track Cole quickly.\n They couldn't communicate properly but Cole would remember Elias,\nand would hopefully not be afraid of him after the attack.\n If not, it might be a long chase.  If Elias-wolf couldn't\nconvince Cole-wolf to come back here then he'd have to stick with\nhim until dawn when they would both change back.  Elias the boy\nshould be able to reason with Cole the boy and explain what had\nhappened to him and bring him back to safety.What a fucking\nmess!  That poor kid!  He didn't deserve this shit.\n We'd done it to him out of our carelessness and our curiosity to\ncapture the change on video.  He was going to pay the price for\nthe rest of his long life for our stupidity.I\ndidn't know what\nto do.  We had to make sure we found him.  That was the first\npriority, but I couldn't help with that.  Elias should have no\nproblem tracking him and he was big and fast enough to catch up to him\nand keep pace if Cole chose to keep running.  Once he found Cole,\nElias would be smart enough to figure out what to do next.Suddenly\nI heard a sound and I turned and Elias emerged into the clearing,\nfollowed by Cole.  The black and white wolf bounded over to me and\nbarked, wagging his tail.  The relief that washed over me was so\npowerful I nearly fainted.  Thank God he was OK.  At least,\nas OK as he could be, given the circumstances.I dropped to my\nknees as he approached and Cole immediately started licking my face.\n I put my arms around his neck and said, \"I'm so sorry, Cole.\n This should have never happened to you.  We did this to you.\n We'll help you any way we can, don't worry.\"He whined and\nlicked at my face again as he continued to wag his tail.  He\nyipped and jumped up and down and barked, then raced around the\nclearing in circles.  It was like he was thrilled with his new\nshape.  Elias watched him like an indulgent parent watching his\nyoung one cutting loose.  It suddenly struck me how Cole was quite\na bit smaller than Elias.  I realized the final size of the wolf\nmust be based on the original size of the human.  Cole looked to\nbe about the size of a normal, adult wolf.  Still much bigger and\nmore powerful looking than a large dog, but quite a bit smaller than\nElias.I watched as Cole continued to run circles around us,\noccasionally leaping through the air as if to test how high he could\ngo.  He stopped and chased his tail for a moment, then rolled\naround on the ground, then finally he sat and faced us while panting\nfrom the exertion.\"Have you got it out of your system for the moment, Cole?  Can you come over here for a minute please?\" I asked.The wolf stood and came over to where I was, still on my knees, and he sat in front of me still panting hard.\"Do you understand what happened to you?\" I asked.He shook his head.\"Do you know what a werewolf is?\"He\nwhined and nodded, but then paused and shook his head.  It was as\nthough he was saying he knew what it was, but he couldn't be one\nhimself.  He might be thinking of the scary looking movie monsters\nhe might have seen.\"You've got sort of a curse.  You got\nit from Elias.  He's the same way.  He didn't change you on\npurpose though.  He couldn't help it.  You came at just the\nwrong time while he was changing.  You felt how much it hurts to\nchange...\"He whined again and nodded his head.\"When you\nchange you're dangerous because of how much pain you're in.  Just\nlike Elias was dangerous while he was changing even though he's not\ndangerous after, and not before.  He bit you because of the blind\nrage and confusion he felt from all of that pain.  He didn't know\nwho you were, or even who he was, while he was changing.  You'll be\nthe same way whenever you change and we have to start getting you ready\nto handle it.  I hate to tell you this but you're going to be\ngoing through that pain again when the sun comes up in morning.\n You'll change back into a boy then.  Tomorrow night it will\nhappen all over again and you'll change into a wolf.  It's going\nto happen to you almost every night from now on.\"He yipped and\nwagged his tail as if he was happy about that.I shook my head\nand sighed.  He was so young that to him it was some awesome new\ngame.  He seemed to think it was cool that he was suddenly this\n'better' shape.  I suppose I would have felt exactly the same way\nat his age.  It must seem incredible to a young boy to suddenly be\nable to run like the wind, and to see in the dark, and hear every\nlittle sound and smell everything around him like never before.I\nrealized immediately that he would have no problem whatsoever adjusting\nto this new reality at his young age.  It was his mother who would\nsuffer the most.  How the hell was I going to break this to her?\n We'd fucked up their lives irrevocably.  The implications of\nit suddenly began to sink in.  He would never have a normal\nfuture.  He couldn't go to school anymore or it would quickly be\nnoticed that he wasn't growing up.  He could never fall in love\nand get married and have kids of his own because his body was stuck at\nits current stage of development.  He would be an eleven\nyear old boy for the rest of time, except when he was busy being a big\nwolf.How the hell was I going to explain this to his mother?\n She would probably want to kill me, and I sure as hell couldn't\nblame her for it.  Somehow I would have to keep her somewhat calm\nabout it though.  Her immediate thought will likely be to try to\nget help for her boy.  It couldn't go well if she tried to get him\nmedical help.  He would be studied and prodded and picked\napart and he would never be free again for the rest of his life.\n I can't even imagine what sort of tests they would subject him\nto.  Needless to say his existence would have to be kept under\nwraps by them.  The government would feel that no one could ever\nknow that werewolves might actually exist and as such he would likely\ndisappear into some remote facility and essentially be a prisoner for\nas long as he lived, which for all intents and purposes could be an eternity.What\na fucking mess we'd made of their\nlives.  We may even have fucked up our own in the process.\n The decision about what to do for Cole would ultimately fall to\nhis mother.  If I can't convince her of the danger of revealing\nwhat's happened to him to the medical community, she would be revealing\nthe reality for Elias as well.  They would want to know who bit\nCole so they could track him down and she would be desperate to help\nCole in any way she could, so she would tell them.  They would\nlikely treat it like\na virus and try to track backwards to determine who bit Elias or who\nelse he might have bitten, and who they might have bitten and so\non.  They would want to get a solid handle on how big of a problem\nthis might be for the population at large.  We would have no\nchoice but to run, and try to disappear\nbefore\nthey could get their hands on Elias.  We'd have to change our\nidentities or lose our freedom forever.I tried to think of\nwhat\nto do next.  The main concern now would be to help Cole get\nthrough the change back as cleanly as possible.  It might be a bit\neasier for him now that he will know exactly what it is that's\nhappening to him going in.  We couldn't have him go through it out\nhere or we'd have to leave him by himself.  Elias would have to go\noff by himself too or he and Cole might try to tear each other apart.\n Given their size difference the winner of that fight was easy to\npredict.  I wouldn't be able to stay with him either, obviously,\nor he'd tear me apart.  He'd have to change by himself and then\nhe'd be a naked boy, alone in the woods until one of us could get to\nhim, but Elias wouldn't be a wolf anymore and couldn't track him.\n If Cole panicked again during the change he might run and we\nmight have trouble finding him again afterward.The\nbest approach was to take him back to my place to change there.  I\nwould explain to Cole that he'd need to\nbe locked into the panic room to go through his change but I'd be\nwaiting for him right outside the door.  The locks weren't\nfunctional yet but I would simply have to wedge the door shut from the\noutside, and keep my weight against it in case he tried to bust out.\n Chances are he'd be so deep in the throes of agony during the\nchange he wouldn't even be thinking of trying to get out of the room.\n In any case he doesn't weigh a whole lot compared to Elias, and\nI'd have no problem keeping him from getting out.Even after a successful change\nwe'd have a naked boy that we would need to bring back home to a\npanicked mother who would be wondering where he was after she came home\nto find his bed empty.  Hopefully she doesn't own a shotgun or\nanything.  Seeing me leading her naked boy back home would likely\ntempt her to use it on me.  I'd have to get to her right away,\ntonight, and try to explain to her why her boy isn't in his bed.\n I'd have to take Cole back to my house now, then go talk to her\nquickly and bring her back to my place to be with him.  She\ncould bring him some clothes.What a shit show this was going to be.  I sighed, and resigned myself to simply try to get through it.\"Cole, is your mom home by now?\"He shook his head.\"Will she be home soon?\"He\nshook his head again.  The one time I'd met Cole I hadn't asked\nhim anything about his mother.  He'd only mentioned in passing\nthat she was working, 'like always', which I assumed meant she had two\njobs.  I didn't ask him what hours she worked though.\"Will she be home tonight?\"He shook his head yet again.\"She's working all night?\"He nodded.\"Does she get home before the sun comes up?\" I asked, hoping the answer would be no.He\nshook his head in the negative.  Well, that should help us a bit\nwhen it came to breaking the news to her at least.  Cole would be\na boy again and I could take him back home and we could both talk to\nher.  She would see him healthy and safe, like her normal boy,\nbefore I broke the news to her about his new reality.  This was\nnot going to be easy.\"Cole, we're going to have to go back to\nmy house so you can change back into a boy there in the morning.\n I have a special room for you to go into that will keep you safe,\nand keep me safe from you, OK?\"He nodded.  I looked around\nthe clearing while there was still a bit of light left, to see if any of\nhis clothes were salvageable.  They really weren't.  One of\nhis shoes was OK and must have fallen off during the change, but one\nwas badly torn up from Elias trying to catch Cole.  The boy's\nshorts, underwear and t-shirt where in tatters, torn apart by his\nbody's rapid expansion as it changed and his own claws tearing at them\nwhile he was writhing in pain.  As I looked at the shorts, a\nthought suddenly occurred to me.\"Do you have a key to your house, Cole?\"He\nnodded and went over to the torn shorts and picked them up with his\nmouth, then brought them back to me.  I took them and went through\nthe pockets.  I found the key and put it my own pocket.  I\nfound a folded up five dollar bill in the other pocket and put that in\nmy pocket as well.  Cole growled at me.I chuckled and\nsaid, \"I'm not robbing you, buddy.  I'll just hold it for you\nuntil you change back.  You don't have any pockets right now.\n Can I trust you to stay right here with Elias?  I need to go\nback home and get my truck, then go over to your house to get you some\nclothes.  I'll come back and park on the street at the top of the\ntrail.  That way I can get you home without anyone seeing you.\n You're a wolf now, and wolves have no business being around here.\n You need to make sure nobody ever sees you.  Stay with Elias\nand I'll come back down the trail and meet you guys again in a little\nwhile, OK?\"He looked over at Elias, then back at me and wagged his tail and nodded.\"I'll be back in a bit, please don't go anywhere,\" I said.I\nsighed and turned with the intent to walk back to my bike, but it occurred to\nme that it probably wouldn't be best to leave the torn and bloodied\nclothes of a child scattered around a clearing in the woods.  I\npicked up the backpack that Elias had used to bring the camera gear out\nwith him and I went around and gathered all of the torn clothes up and\nstuffed them in it.  I collapsed the tripod and stuffed it into\nthe pack along with the camera and I walked back through the woods to\nwhere I'd dropped my bike.  I picked it up and rode back up the\ntrail and home.I put the backpack on the kitchen table and got\nthe keys to the truck and went to the garage.  I opened the\ntonneau cover on the truck and put my bike in the bed, then drove out\nto the street.I\nhad no trouble finding Cole's house, though it\nhad been a month since I'd met him and rode with him back there.\n I went around back, since that's the way he'd gone before, and I\nknocked at the door and rang the bell just in case his mother had come\nhome unexpectedly.  There was no answer and no lights came on so I\ntried the key.  It fit and I let myself in.  I found the\nlight switch near the door and flicked it on, then made my way through\nthe house.  I found Cole's room and went straight to the dresser\nand looked through the drawers until I found socks, underwear, a\nt-shirt, and some jeans.  Cole had a small table in his room with\na few pencils in a holder.  It must be where he does his homework.\n I put his five dollar bill on the table then I took a sheet of paper and wrote a quick note on it to leave on\nhis pillow in case his mom came home unexpectedly before I brought him\nback home.  It simply let her know that Cole was OK and that I'd bring him back home in the morning, and I left my\nphone number for her to call.  I put the note on his pillow,\npicked up a pair of shoes for him that I found near the back door, and\nthen headed back out to my truck.I drove back to where the\ntrail leading down into the river valley meets the sidewalk next to the\nroad.  It's a fairly secluded location across from a park that\nwasn't being used at this time of night.  It was nearly dark now.\n Cole should be able to come up with me and get into the truck\nwithout anyone seeing.I got the bike out of the truck bed,\nflicked on the light, and I rode down the trail to the usual spot and\nthen locked my bike to a tree in the woods.  The light on my bike\nunclips to become a hand held flashlight so I took it and continued on\nthrough the woods to the clearing.As\nI came to the edge of the clearing I switched off the light so no one\nwould see it from the trail if they happened to pass.  I\nsaw that Elias was chasing Cole around.  The smaller wolf was\nhaving a great old time.  He'd sit his butt down, panting heavily\nfrom the exertion and wait while the bigger wolf approached in\nprey-stalking mode, then just\nas Elias would get close to him Cole would dart off and the two would\nrun around in circles and figure eights until Elias would pretend to\nget tired and slow\ndown and finally stop and go down on his belly.  Then Cole would\nspin and sit again, panting, with his sides heaving and his tongue\nhanging out and his tail wagging, waiting for the next round.  The\ntwo of them\nseemed to be having great fun together.I suddenly remembered\nwhat Elias had told me in the morning when he'd got home after the\nchange, about how lonely it was for him out here when he was the wolf.\n It seemed he had the perfect companion now.  Cole would keep\nhim from ever getting lonely again.  Elias would need to watch\nover him and show him the ropes anyhow.  They simply needed to\nwork out a routine where they would go their separate ways to change,\nthen come back together to spend their time in wolf form with each\nother.  Cole was smaller than Elias, but he was still a large and\npowerful wolf.  The two of them together would be almost\nunstoppable if there was ever any trouble.  They would help keep each other safe.Cole saw me emerge from the clearing and he yipped and\nran over to me and leaped through the air as he approached, turning\nslightly sideways as though he expected me to catch him in my arms.\n I don't think he quite realized that he was a hell of a lot\nheavier now than he'd been as a thin, frail, eleven year old boy, or that he was a hell of a lot\nbigger and heavier than even a large dog would be.  I let out a loud\n'oof' as he slammed into me and knocked the wind out of me and I fell\non my ass.  His momentum drove me right onto my back with him on\ntop.  He stood and yipped again and ran around me in circles.I\nsat up and laughed as I watched him zoom around me a few times, then\nrace over to Elias and circle him several times, then back to me again.\n He seemed to be thrilled with his new body.  I remembered\nthe pronounced limp he had as a boy.  He couldn't run before, and\neven walking was probably uncomfortable for any length of time.\n That was why he'd ridden his bike so much.  He found it\neasier to get around.  Now he could run like the wind and he\nseemed to be loving it.  When he got tired of circling us he raced\noff to the far end of the clearing, then turned and dashed as fast as\nhe could back across it, leaping through the air as he went as if to\nshow us what he could do, or maybe to test himself and see just how high and how far\nhe could jump.Elias loped over to me, panting from the chase\nthat must have been going on since I left earlier, and he sat down next\nto me.  I put my arm around him and we both watched and waited for\nCole to finally burn himself out.  It was a full moon, so he would\nbe a wolf all night long.  He may as well learn as much about his\nbody and what it could do as he could before I take him to my house.  The full moon was\ngetting higher in the clear night sky now and the light it provided was fairly bright once my eyes\nadjusted, so I just sat and watched the show the smaller wolf was putting on.Cole's\nenergy was so infectious I got up and charged\ntowards him as he was running across the clearing.  He saw me and\nslammed on the brakes, then turned and ran away from me as I chased\nafter him and tried to catch him.  It was hopeless of course.\n He wasn't giving me any breaks.  I finally had to stop to\ncatch my breath.  He saw me stop, then turned to run towards me.\n Just as he got close he swerved aside and I lunged at him to try\nto catch him.  He ran on past, then turned and took another run at\nme.  Over and over I'd flail my\narms out towards him as he zoomed cleanly past me, but the closest I\never got to catching him was to feel his fur brush past the tips of my\nfingers.  I must look\nlike some useless matador being toyed with by a bull.Finally he\nseemed almost to be getting tired out himself and as he raced towards\nme, instead of zooming aside, he turned sideways and rolled on the\nground onto his back against my legs.  I laughed and crouched down\nand started to tickle his ribs as he wiggled around, wagging his tail.\n He started to playfully nip at my wrists and arms and push at me\nwith his big paws like he was trying to break free, then I let him go\nand he rolled upright and ran away again.  This time Elias chased\nhim and I laughed as Cole continued to evade him, finally running back\nto me and hiding behind my legs.   Elias ran up and stopped and\nsat in front of me.  I turned to Cole and he was sitting too,\npanting hard.  His tongue was dripping as it lolled out of his\nopen mouth and his sides heaved in and out.  His tail was wagging\nlike mad.  He seemed like one hell of a happy wolf.\"I think you should take a break and catch your breath for a bit,\" I said as I sat down in the grass.Cole\ngot up and walked around in front of me and then sat facing me, tail\nstill wagging.  I reached up and scratched the top of his furry\nhead and then behind his ears.  His head cocked and his eyes half\nclosed as I scratched him behind his ear, and his back paw started\nthumping on the ground.  I must have found an itch.  I\nchuckled as I continued to scratch him until his foot stopped.  I\nsat back and smiled at him.  He was a beautiful wolf, just like\nElias.  He was probably about the size of a big timber wolf.\n He was much lighter over all in color than Elias was, and he was\na mixture of white, grey and black, where Elias was cream, tans and\ndarker browns, and black.It\nseemed as though Cole was absolutely thrilled with being a wolf, and he\ncertainly made a good one, but he needed to realize it wasn't just fun\nand games.  He was going to need to learn how to deal with this\nwhile keeping himself safe.\"I know this all seems like great fun\nto you right now, Cole, but we really messed up your life in a big way\ntonight.  I'm really sorry about that.  There's nothing we\ncan do to fix it, but I promise we'll be there for you from now on.\n We'll help you adjust and you won't have to worry about ever\nbeing alone with this.  Elias will always be there for you when\nyou're the wolf, and we'll both be there for you when you're a boy if\nyou need us.\"He whined and leaned in and licked at my face\nwhile his tail still continued to wag.  I was sure he didn't see\nany of this as any sort of problem.  It was likely the coolest\nthing that he could ever imagine happening to him.  He hadn't had\ntime to really think about it yet.  I doubt he'd be happy with the\nidea that he'd never grow up and find a woman to fall in love with, to\nhave kids of his own.  He'd never have the experience of making\nfriends all through his school years and growing up with them.\n He'd never go to college.  He'd never have the thrill of\nstriking out on his own and getting his first apartment and first job and first car.\n He would be stuck in an eleven year old boy's body for the rest of his\nlife and, barring any unforeseen accident, there was likely no hard\nlimit on just how long that life might be.  He would never live\nlike a normal person now, and it was my fault as much as Elias's.Elias\ncame over to join us and put his massive paw on my shoulder and whined.\n I reached over and put my arms around his neck.\"It's not\nyour fault Elias.  You know better than anyone that you can't\ncontrol yourself during the change and you don't know what's happening.\n We both should have been more careful.\"He whined again\nand we both settled in to watch Cole as he stood up, fully rested,\nand started to race around the clearing again.It was going to\nbe a long night, but I felt it was best to just stay out here for a few\nhours at least.  I got the impression that Cole would not be\nsatisfied with being cooped up in my house for the rest of the night.\n He'd want to keep running and testing the limits of his new shape until he couldn't anymore.  I'd\nlet him get tired out as much as possible, then we'd head back up to\nthe truck and back to my place for the change.  Then I'd take him\nhome and try to explain everything to his mother and face her well-justified wrath.That was going to be the hardest conversation of my life, and I was not looking forward to it.","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/687406-love-and-lycanthropy-chapter-4.json"}
