DAMIEN

My name is Damien dark, am a werewolf, well not just any kind of werewolf, an alpha wolf, well people say a werewolf power comes from the moon, well it does, the full moon grants us power,speed,agility,stamina I could spot a prey from miles away, and our sense of smell is heightened, the stench of some humans wasn’t always pleasant to the nose.

I had a beautiful wife, her name was Aurelia, she was human, the only woman I have ever truly loved, we got married when I was 25, of course my family never approved of us, a werewolf was forbidden from marrying a human.

My dad was the leader of the pack then, so he gave me a choice turn her or let her go, letting her go was never an option for me, so I decided to turn her into a werewolf, a decision she was ready to accept because we couldn’t live without each other, turning a human into a werewolf was a painful transition, it was my first time of doing it, of course dad never told me the pain involved. Aurelia was strong, she would always say to me “it’s fine baby, always and forever, even death can’t keep me away from you” her smile would melt my heart, she made me feel more powerful than I had ever felt, she believed we could do anything we wanted to, as long as we had each other we would be unstoppable.

Well I believed that, until after the bite, for a human to become a werewolf they would be bitten by a fully transformed werewolf on the night of a full moon, and the wound will be left untreated for ten days, when the wound gets infected within the ten days period the transition starts and if the body is strong enough to withstand the transition a werewolf is born and the first full transformation occurs on the night of the first full moon after the transition.

During the first transformation, the wolf takes control of the mind, it kills anything in sight, including any human wandering around at night and the first rule of a werewolf,

“Never kill a defenseless human in cold blood”

So the wolf must be caged or tamed to avoid a bloodbath, the pack always watches out for the omega who is the newest member of the pack.

After I transformed into a werewolf, biting the love of my life was the hardest thing I have ever done, but it had to be me, so I did it.

Her body fought to survive the transformation, but after ten days I lost the only woman I ever truly loved, the last thing she said to me was you would have made a great dad, she was pregnant and I didn’t know, she wanted to tell me after the transition but the pregnancy couldn’t let her survive the transition.

My family knew this but they kept it from me, after Aurelia’s death, I blamed my family for her death, and so I left the pack and came to California and now I have a new pack, a new family and as an alpha I would do anything to protect them, I haven’t seen my parents in decades.

Last I heard, my mom had left and nobody knows where she is, I have thought of looking for her, but I still blame her for Aurelia’s death.

Since Aurelia’s death, love has been a mirage for me, have met a lot of ladies since her death, had sex with a couple of them but none could win my heart like Aurelia did.

My pack members had tried to set me up on dates, but sometimes I feel like turning into a wolf and ripping these ladies in half, but things changed when I met her.

She was a student in my class, I should have mentioned this earlier, am a lecturer at the prestigious university of California

UCLA

as a professor in History.

As she walked in that cool afternoon, the pace she walked, with her red hair, the class was packed full that day, I could recognize the smell on her, it was the same smell Aurelia had, the calmness in her breath, I was distracted by the scent of her breath, I recognize the vanilla caramel smell, it was the same Aurelia had the first time we met, she loved vanilla too.

And as she walked into the class, she had that smile on her face, the calmness in her eyes as she turned to stare at me, I could hear the slow beating of her heart, at that moment I felt a connection with her, it was like Aurelia was back and I wanted to know who she was in this new body.

After the class ended, I asked her to wait behind while the rest student walked out; she was even more beautiful up close, her eyes where blue like the ocean,

“What’s your name miss?” I asked and she replied softly

“Amber sir,” “my name is Amber”

she was awfully cheerful I thought, she had this concerned look on her face “well, Miss Amber I noticed you were a bit distracted with your phone in my class today, did you get your heart broken or something” that made her actually smile, she replied, “well my boyfriend Dave, I caught him cheating with my friend, he’s an asshole, sorry professor.… she paused

“Damien, my name is Damien”

I said with a smile, she smiled back, like she wasn’t expecting my name would be Damien, and I haven’t even told her my last name yet.

We talked for a while, well she talked and I just listened, she went on and on about Dave, I wasn’t bored because all the while she was talking, I could only see Aurelia in her, the similarity they shared made me drawn to her, there was something about her presence that reminded me of her.

For the first time in decades I felt a sense of comfort and the feeling was good but as we walked closer to my office, she finally realized she had been talking all the while we walked,

“Oh sorry professor can’t believe I have been talking and complaining about my silly life all the way to your office” she said with an embarrassing smile on her face, if only she knew the effect she has on me.

“well, Miss amber, you can call me Damien, and it has been a long time since anyone complained about their life to me, it was fun” I said with a smile, “and fuck Dave, It’s his loss, see you around miss amber”

As I opened the door of my office I saw the smile on her face as she walked away, is it possible for me to find love in someone else again? Is amber my next love story? These thoughts flooded my mind as I shut the door in…
