I remained frozen, unable to move or speak. The wolf-man stood before me, his eyes bright and his snout sharp. I could smell him, an odor of earth and forest.
He took a step forward, and I instinctively recoiled. But he didn't seem to notice my movement. He continued to advance, his eyes fixed on me.
Suddenly, he stopped and transformed again. He became a man once more, with dark eyes and a stern face.
"My name is Lucien," he said. "And you, you are the descendant of Luna."
I stared at him, still in shock. What did he mean? Why was he telling me this?
Lucien smiled and made a reassuring gesture.
"Don't worry," he said. "I am here to help you. I am here to show you the truth."
He took a step forward and took my hand.
"Come with me," he said. "I am going to show you something."
I followed him, still a little hesitant. But Lucien seemed to know where he was going, and I felt safe with him.
We walked through the forest, the trees surrounding us on all sides. The moon was high in the sky, and its glow illuminated our path.
Finally, we arrived at a clearing. In the center of the clearing stood a large tree, with branches that stretched towards the sky.
Lucien stopped in front of the tree and turned to me.
"This is the tree of life," he said. "It is here that the werewolves come to transform."
I looked at him, incredulous. What did he mean?
Lucien smiled and made a reassuring gesture.
"Don't worry," he said. "I am going to show you."
He took a step forward and transformed again. He became a wolf once more, with bright eyes and a sharp snout.
I watched him, amazed. It was incredible. He could really transform into a wolf.
Lucien-wolf took a step forward and looked at me. I could see in his eyes that he wanted to tell me something.
Suddenly, he spoke. His voice was low and hoarse, but I could understand his words.
"You are one of them," he said. "You are one of us."
I looked at him, shocked. What did he mean?
Lucien-wolf took a step forward and touched my face with his snout.
"You have the blood of the werewolves in your veins," he said. "You are the descendant of Luna."
I looked at him, incredulous. It was impossible. I was not a werewolf.
But Lucien-wolf smiled and looked me in the eyes.
"You are one of them," he repeated. "You are one of us."
I looked at him, still in shock. What did this mean? What was I going to become?
And then, I saw something that made me jump. A group of werewolves standing at the edge of the clearing.
They were watching me, their eyes glowing in the night.
I felt scared, but Lucien-wolf touched my arm with his snout.
"Don't worry," he said. "They are friends."
I looked at him, still a little hesitant. But Lucien-wolf smiled and looked me in the eyes.
"You are one of them," he repeated. "You are one of us."
I looked at him, still in shock. What did this mean? What was I going to become?
And then, I saw the moon shining in the sky. It seemed bigger and brighter than ever.
I felt drawn to the moon, as if it were calling me. Lucien-wolf looked at me and smiled.
"The moon is full," he said. "It is time to begin."
I looked at him, still a little hesitant. What did he mean?
Lucien-wolf took a step forward and took my hand.
"Come with me," he said. "I am going to show you something."
I followed him, still a little hesitant. But Lucien-wolf seemed to know where he was going, and I felt safe with him.
We walked through the forest, the trees surrounding us on all sides. The moon was high in the sky, and its glow illuminated our path.
Finally, we arrived at a large cave. The entrance was dark and menacing, but Lucien-wolf smiled at me.
"Don't worry," he said. "I am here to protect you."
I looked at him, still a little hesitant. But Lucien-wolf took my hand and led me inside the cave.
Inside, the cave was dark and silent. But Lucien-wolf led me to a large chamber, where a strange light glowed.
The light came from a large stone, which was in the center of the chamber. The stone was blue and bright, and it seemed to emit a strange energy.
Lucien-wolf looked at me and smiled.
"This is the moonstone," he said. "It is here that the werewolves come to transform."
I looked at him, incredulous. What did he mean?
Lucien-wolf took a step forward and touched my forehead with his snout.
"You are ready," he said. "You are ready to discover your true self."
I looked at him, still a little hesitant. But Lucien-wolf smiled at me and looked me in the eyes.
"You are one of them," he repeated. "You are one of us."
And then, everything went black.
