Aiden O'Reilly's Story

The pouding in his ears seems to ring through his chest, he tried to control his breathing as he waited for the lift. But it wasn't working that well at all, sweat slowly built up around his forehead which was quickly wiped away by the back of his hand. Looking at his hands his fingernails had already begun to lengthen. Growling at his reflection at the reflective lift doors he watched as the numbers ticked down slowly and the last resounding ding shook his body to the core.

He waited as long as he could for the people to get out before barging in the lift closing the doors before anyone else had a chance to get in. Dropping his bag to the lift floor he pressed the numbered light and felt the lift begin to rise up. Adjusting his shirt collar he felt confined, as he always did before he was due to change. Running a hand through his hair again he growled slamming his hand on the side of the lift, growling softly he picked up his bag and stepped out of the lift as soon as the doors pulled open.

Bending over he gasped for air as his breathing became ever quicker and his eyes turned a deep brown, the wolf was close now he had to get in his room. Walking quickly he searched the numbers trying to find his room but the wolf had other ideas, he threw himself against the wall his fingernails scratching at the wallpapered walls. Growling he fumbled for the keys he had been given but his hands were shaking terribly scratching the wall again he picked out the keys from his pocket he kept his eyes down as he walked not noticing the other person heading towards him. Colliding with the person he growled deeply and took the man by the throat hissing loudly. His eyes melted back to their normal color briefly and he released the mans throat. " I'm so sorry" he muttered shocked about what he did but he felt the need to explain him. Keep his eyes on the floor he spoke again " You caught me by surprise i hope i didn't hurt you." Walking away finally finding his room but still struggled with the keys.

Ali tensed as Aiden kissed his neck the kiss sending sparks through his body, and the voice sent his heart racing. "I'm fine, I'm a big boy after all. Right?" Ali smirked softly as he looked up at Aiden as he spoke again this time striking fear into Ali's mind. "Let me help you through, babe."

Shaking his head at first, he didn't want to put Aiden through the pain Ali went through each full moon. Aiden had offered to help Ali more or less each time they were together but since Ali did not want to hurt Aiden he would lock himself away and would often wake up crying or screaming in Aiden arms when he finally ended up back in his human form.With the familiar feeling building in his chest Ali knew it wasn't long before the wolf would appear " okay...but just this once I don't want to hurt you. You know that I never would. It's just what the wolf would do" Ali explained as he took Aiden's hand and led him into the dark room.

The room was tidy aside from a few scratches on the wall that Ali had made when he was trapped in one of his nightmares. Shutting the door behind them Ali locked it tightly the doors were strong at the hotel and so far the wolf hasn't broke out and it seemed never even made a dent in the door. Handing the keys to Aiden he placed his hand over his and spoke looking in his eyes " if something bad happens get out Allright don't worry about me just get yourself out". Ali sighed softly and kissed Aiden tenderly on the lips wanting a brief moment of happiness to combat the immense pain that was due.

He rubbed his chest as the wolf grew ever closer, searching desperately through his bag Ali pulled out a large bottle of sedatives, pulling out four of them he swallowed them dryly. Ali paced the room rubbing his chest the pain was getting worse as it always did before a change, growling loudly Alistair threw himself against the wall then the wolf decided to throw Ali against the door. Almost instantly the wolf appeared first scratching at Alistair's clothes, black fur erupting from the tears. Roaring deeply the wolf threw Ali's half turned form against the wall where he landed in a heap and allowed the burning transformation to consume him. His jaw elongated into a large snout and his human ears were replaced by large pointed ears. A tail burst out of his spine and soon the wolf stood up and paced around the room breaking tables and throwing itself against the wall.

The wolf started to become sluggish but seemed to pace around the room still slamming its body against the walls creating a resounding thud around the room. The sedatives worked at keeping the wolf level so it didn't really destroy the room of try to attack everything.

The sedatives were working and the wolf knew it, growling the wolf turned quickly at Aiden the new but familiar smell inflamed his nostrils. Stepping forward he gripped his throat tightly, considerably tighter than when Ali had grabbed him in the hallway. The wolf began to sniffed quickly as well as slowly squeezing Aiden's throat,leaning forward it's jaw opening intending to bite down, that was until the wolfs eyes turned into Ali's humans ones and the wolf backed of straight away seemingly in pain. Dropping to the floor the wolf howled desperately as it scratched at the fur exposing Ali's human flesh.

The fur melted away to reveal Ali half naked with small scratches across his body, the wolf always left it's mark even if it was a few new bruises and scratches or even a broken bone. Ali breathed quickly and whimpered to himself , his body trembling slightly as he wrapped his arms around himself almost forgetting that Aiden was there.

Ali's body prickled with the kiss and shivered at the embrace that Aiden gave him. He wrapped his arms around Aiden and rested his head on his shoulder. His hands reaching up to run his fingers through Aiden's beautiful hair whilst kissing his neck delicately, his lips resting softly on his collar bone. He would have stayed alone on the floor for hours, just lying in the darkness, alone with his own thoughts as well as the wolf's.

"Hey, everything's alright. I'm right here, babe....Please calm down."

Ali felt the last of the tears in his eyes run down his face and drip quickly from his chin. It was as if Aiden's calming words had washed away all of his worries. He smiled softly and looked up at Aiden and spoke " How do you put up with me? Knowing that i'm a monster? Do you really want to spend the rest of your life with someone who could kill you, then have no memory of it happening the next day"

Ali had asked Aiden these questions many times throughout there relationship, he had hid his condition from Aiden for weeks into their dating stage, but once the wolf had let himself known there was no turning back.
