Tears silently streamed over her cheeks to the pillow beneath her head. Frozen in the same position she awoke into — she stared at her body in the mirror across the room. It's all wrong, it shouldn't be this way, she told herself.

Last night marked her fifth transformation since her 'rebirth'. Her eyes moved down her body landing on her left calf, to the bite that changed her life. The scarred puncture wounds caught the morning sun, and it stared back at her as a constant reminder that her body was no longer her own. The remnant of her tail bounced slightly up and down with each beat of her heart. Closing her eyes tightly, she held her breath and thought as hard as she could, trying commanded her body to change — change back to her. She soundlessly sobbed into the pillow sporadically gasping for air between waves of despair. She wondered how she could live her life this way. Wondered if one day she'd never return...

wondered... god... would that really be so bad to howl freely?
