The last time I was affected in that manner was when I first tried to control my wolf; it was as if I lost control completely, and I was acting out of manners when my father took me to a particular wolf lord. We used his powers to break me down, and that was the very last time anything like that ever happened to me.
As I lifted my gaze to look at her, when I noticed her coming closer because of the strong effect it was having on me, I felt as if I could see a wolf through her, and even though she was saying to me that she did not know what I was talking about, something inside me was telling me that she knew exactly what it was I was talking about but was not going to say it.
I watched her as she ran up the stairs, running into her apartment and locking the door from inside while I stood out there. I knew it in myself that if it came down to breaking the door and going in there to bring her out, I was going to do it. I just wanted to give her the grace and the benefit of the doubt.
