Chapter 17: Chapter 17

That applied to both of us. I sent my thoughts towards Jake's wolf. I was hoping that it would reach him and that he will try to get control of his wolf as well. I tried to control my wolf as I forced it to stop growling, and it worked after some moments.

I was able to move in my wolf form on my own instead of the wolf moving me. As I did so, I saw Jake's wolf beside me doing the same, and in a second, he was shifted back into human form. He looked into my wolf eyes and said, "Shift back into human form, Max."

I did as he said and commanded my wolf form to go away and my human form to come forth. I was shifted back into a human in a second. Jake immediately ran to me and wrapped his arms around me. He pulled back from me as he looked at me, seeming worried, "Are you okay, baby doll?"

"Yes, never been better actually." I replied then rolled my injured shoulder and it felt great. I looked back at Jake, "Even my shoulder is healed, and I feel stronger too."

Jake nodded then placed one arm on his injured shoulder, "My shoulder is healed too. I also feel stronger and better."

"Could it be because we are now werewolves?"

"It seems so." He replied, and I realized that we still had our clothes on, except Jake's shirt since he shifted when he was shirtless.

Jake moved his gaze around the room and I did the same. I saw our friends, lying on the carpeted floor unconscious, and that was when I remembered that we had bitten them while in wolf form. I quickly ran to Sean who was closest to us.

Jake went to Shane to check on him. I saw Sean's shoulder had a large bite mark on it with blood dripping down from it. The blood that was coming out was very little, but he was still unconscious. It must be because we had been in wolf form for a long time, and he had bled out though the blood pooling down under him was not much either.

It may also be because what made people turn from a werewolf's bite made them unconscious. I sighed, we really need to research on all this werewolf stuff because I can't keep guessing the reason behind all this. I moved to Alex to see the same result while Jake moved to Mike and Drake. I moved to Jane finally to see that just like the rest, we had bitten her and was still unconscious.

"They seem okay, apart from the bleeding part. We should call the doctor." I said as I raised up from checking on Jane.

Jake looked up and raised up from the squatting position he was in while checking on Drake. "Yeah, that's the best thing to do right now, and our bites will turn them into werewolves as well."

"Then we should prepare before tomorrow night for the change so that we or them won't bite others too." I said with a sigh.

"Yeah, we have to lock ourselves up in a room, that's for sure."

"But does that mean that we have to change into wolves every single night?" I asked with a frown on my forehead as I felt worried.

How would we be able to do anything when we are going to be forced to shift into werewolves every single night? That would just take the fun out of being a werewolf. But then we saw Drake shift into a wolf on his own will. It might take time and practice for us to be able to do so too.

"Maybe, maybe not. But what I know for sure is that we have to research on this before it gets messier than this." Jake replied, also looking worried as he glanced around the room.

"I'm going to go call that doctor now while you stay here with them." Jake said as he made his way to the door.

"Okay." I answered, and the door opened just as Jake reached it.

We both looked surprised that it opened, forgetting for a moment that others were also in the house. Aiden stood there in the doorway with his mouth agape as shock showed on his face. He was staring at the bodies of our friends on the floor.

"Are they…?" Aiden trailed off, not able to say the word dead in relation to our friends.

I shook my head as I furrowed my eyebrows at his suggestion. Even as out of control as we had been, I don't think that we would kill them.

"No, that's not what happened." Jake started, looking horrified at Aiden's implication. "Max and I turn into werewolves from Kane's bite, and we bit them all."

Aiden frowned as he moved his gaze to Jake, "What? Why?"

"Oh, I don't know. Maybe because we've never turn into wolves before and lost control?"

"No need to get sassy, Jake. I only asked a question." Aiden replied, and glanced over at the bodies again before continuing. "I just came back from a six hour shift at work from 4:00pm to 10:00pm, and I'm really not in the mood."

"What? It's 10:00pm already? That we means that we have been in wolf form for four hours." I said as I felt shocked at the revelation.

"Which means that we really need to get the doctor here right now." Jake said as he looked worried.

I nodded, and Aiden said, "I will call him, you guys should focus on cleaning their wounds and bandaging it."

"Okay."

"Alright then." Jake said as he walked to bed's side drawer.

Aiden walked out of the room, leaving the door open while Jake pulled the top bedside drawer open and pulled out a first aid kit. He closed the bedside drawer and walked to Sean and sat down beside him.
