Clementine:
I was breathing heavily after I transitioned back. My uniform was intact, but my jacket lay on the ground. I picked it up and quickly put it on, buttoning it tightly. While Ian stepped out of the darkness to stare at the man, I stayed silent. I had noticed that instead of helping me, he had hidden in the shadows. I didn't understand why. He never seemed afraid of anything, so why was he afraid of transitioning? Or did he simply not want to help me?
I had expected him to flaunt his wolf the first chance he got. But he shocked me when he didn't. Or maybe, just like always, he was giving me the chance to lead and come for help if I hadn't been able to fight.
The big black wolf had returned to human form. He whimpered on the ground, badly wounded from the scars and injuries I had given him.
"Ian, tie him up and take him to the station," I said as I looked at him.
