“Psheeeew! What is that smell?” – Was the first thing heard as soon as the door opened. Mommy had decided I should sit in my mess for a little while ‘to get used to being a stinky little puppy’ as she said, but it was so hard. I had been trying to play with the toys she had set out for me on the living room floor and I was okay with it just being the two of us, but Marsha broke me out of playtime and I grabbed a blanket to try and hide.

“Marsha! Be nice to your little sister, she was just getting comfortable in her mucky pants.” She was trying to hide it, but I could hear the laugh in her voice.

“Oh, sorry mama! I didn’t know the baby was so small is all.” Both of them were hiding the teasing laugh as best as they could, but I knew.

“Moooommyyyyy! Can I have a change now?” I whined from under the plush blanket.

“Now sweetie, we talked about this…” Liliana began and I helped her finish. “… babies don’t ask to be changed.” Our tones were very different and Marsha couldn’t hold back any more and burst into laughter. “Oh! I think your big sister just volunteered to change you!”

I dropped the blanket in shock to see my expression mirrored on Marsha’s face, but we could both see Liliana was being serious, so I crawled back to the nursery behind the grumbling older wolf. “Walked right into that didn’t I baby sis?” I couldn’t help but giggle to myself.

~~~~~~~~~~~

An hour later we were all back in the living room, the Goosebumps movie on TV. Marsha was playing on the switch while I was busy with Legos. Liliana had gone back to her office to take care of things and the doorbell rang.

“Oh, Rachel? You wanted Chinese, they’re here.” Liliana called from the back of the house.

I looked down at myself in nothing but a wolf print onesie and diaper. “M-marsha?”

“Nuh uh squirt, you wanted it, you go get it.” She grinned at me as I slowly got up and walked anxiously to the door. On the other side was a thin young person in black skinny jeans, a white t-shirt and black denim vest covered in patches and pins. They had a long bubblegum pink mohawk and a shocked look for a moment as they took me in. They looked me up and down before smiling.

“Aww, hi sweetheart, is your mommy, daddy or guardian home? I need an adult to sign for the credit card slip.” They smiled, my cheeks puffed out and Marsha burst into a giggle fit in the next room. I wanted to fuss, but their study tone and kind demeanor stopped me. I held out my hands expectantly, but he didn’t relent. Liliana rested her chin on my shoulder, a feat with me being about half a foot taller than her.

“Oh hello, I’ll take care of that.” She took the slip, signed it and handed it back to them. They handed me the food and ruffled my hair.

“Thank you miss! Have a lovely evening.” They turned and I saw a big white rabbit back patch on their vest. “Glad to see you found someone, Liliana.” They did as they walked away.

“Thanks Jessie. See you later.” I huffed as I looked back at her. “What, are you surprised?”

“Honestly… I really shouldn’t be anymore. My mommy has all the connections, but…was that magic or…?”

“Jessie’s delivered to the club on party nights before. I don’t think anything really fazes them anymore.” Marsha offered from her spot on the couch. “Plus you’re too cute to upset anyone.”

It took me less than a week to explore the DL side of ABDL. Liliana was busy with pack business, so while home alone I was running around doing stuff in just a diaper and t-shirt. I was starting to realize just how nice they felt. Beyond the fact that they made me feel small, cute and safe, they also just excited me in a way I didn’t realize at first. Especially when wet.

The warm padding pressed against me as I moved. It was unlike anything I had really experienced before and I was realizing how bothered I was getting. With the house clean, I went to my room and pulled my pink wand from the bottom of my ‘toy chest’, crawled into my bed and took a deep breath. With the head pressed into the crinkling plastic, the toy hummed to life. Instantly the vibration sent chills up my spine. In my already excited state I wasn’t expecting just how nice it would feel and let out a howl.

“Excuse me?” Liliana snapped me back to attention. I must have been so caught up in my arousal that I didn’t even pay attention to the world around me. She made her way quickly to me and growled softly. Taking the wand from my hand, she squeezed my sodden diapered crotch. “Mine.” She huffed out and nipped my ear.

I bit back a moan as she took control. “Stay.” She commanded. Her eyes were bright. The wolf was enjoying this too. So I lay there on my bed, a needy mess, waiting to see what she had in mind for her naughty little girl.

It was only a few minutes, but to my flustered brain it felt like hours. When she came back she had the box of fun stuff I had picked recently and all but her underwear were gone. I gasped and squirmed. “Oh…Liliana? Now? I was so close.”

“I know you were, and you didn’t even wait for me. So very naughty of you. You’re just going to have to learn.” She tutted at me as she took a wrist and locked the first of the cuffs around it.

“No. No no no. Please, no?” I fussed and squirmed as she repeated the process on each limb. Before chaining the cuffs to the straps coming from under my mattress, she looked me in the eyes. I knew she could get the answer she wanted just from my eyes or accent even, but I still thought ‘green’ to her.

With me all secured, she strapped the wand to my leg and left it to buzz on low into my damp diaper. She twirled across my room to my closet, wiggling out of her panties as she went. I watched from my bed longingly as she took one of the Unicorn diapers from my shelf and gave me the crinkliest reverse-strip tease ever. I was huffing as I pulled against my bonds. I knew I could break them, but my mistress had put them on and that was enough to keep me from actually getting free.

Liliana danced at the foot of my bed, her padded rump swaying from side to side and driving me crazy. How was I this turned on by a fetish I had never even considered a month before? I wasn’t given too long to question it, because Liliana crawled onto my bed between my legs and over me. She pressed the wand between our diapers as she started to grind and pant herself. Now that she was astride me, she licked my neck, kissing all the way up til I turned to meet her. She kissed me deeply. A kiss that was both passionate and possessive. I could feel her energy as I returned it wholly. I was hers, but she was mine too.

As fast as she had been on top of me, she was gone and so was the wand. I let out a whimper as she leaned against the footboard. Looking me in the eyes she licked her lips. The magic wand hummed across the smooth plastic of her diaper. I was left to whine as she moaned with pleasure. I squirmed against my bonds, but it thrilled her more. Watching me wiggle helplessly as she grew ever closer to bliss. She pressed the wand more firmly into the crinkling padding, her muscles tensed and her breathing quickened. She was truly beautiful to watch and I was more needy than ever.

She chimed off the bed and lowered the rails so she could come right up beside my ear. “Oh, does my little pup want to cum too? Then do it.~” And I knew exactly what she meant. I had brought it up a few days ago and how I didn’t know if it was for me or not, but here I was. Strapped down to my bed, the head of the wand playing against my soaking wet diaper and… I whined. I closed my eyes, bit my lip and started pushing. The more I pushed out, the more intense Liliana got with the wand until all I knew was I was in bliss as the mess pressed against my rump. I was not the Rachel I came to the city as a month ago. I don’t think that version of me would ever understand how something so gross and juvenile could be ecstasy.

The back of my truck was loaded down with boxes and boxes of new stuff for the sprog. I was going to have a word or two with Liliana about having such things delivered to a security company. Sure most things came in unmarked brown boxes, but the larger things, not so much. Bed Rails, set of playpen panels, and then there was the crib. It was all easy enough to explain as a friend that was expecting, that didn’t stop the questions about the crib seeming larger than normal.

Before I headed over, I messaged a few of the wolves to meet me at the lady’s home to unload the mess so I could put it together. An hour later I was busying myself with the monstrous crib when she came by. I didn’t acknowledge her, but she just stood behind me for longer than curiosity’s sake. I grunted, but didn’t turn my attention to her.

“Um, Ronnie?” She finally spoke, more meekly than I expected from one that had won the heart of Liliana.

“Yes pup?” I bit out as I dropped a board on my foot.

“Can I help?” She shyly asked, having moved up behind me.

“I don’t see what help you could be here.” I grunted, fitting the last bolt needed to get the thing freestanding. “Run along and… play.” I could see her from the corner of my eyes as she puffed up her cheeks in frustration. The girl grabbed the box of Bed Rails and drug it down the hall. She knew she was strong enough to carry it easily, the dragging was simply a show of something I didn’t have time to care about.

I chuckled to myself and went back to putting in bolts when from down the hall I heard “Fuck.” I made my way to her bedroom to see she had flipped the mattress over. Obviously not thinking about how easy it was to lift with her new strength. I stealthily slid up behind her and stuck one of her new pacifiers in her mouth.

“Young princesses shouldn’t use such language, child.” And with that I left her stunned to go finish setting up her bed.

First Moon Forever 19

I watched her look around the room in amazement. Ms. Liliana looked at me with a scowl. “What is she seeing?”

“Oh hush lass, the wee wolf is just seeing the world through the eyes of her inner child.” I chuckled softly and gave Rachel’s head a pat. “You know my glamor is strongest the day after mother moon is at her fullest.”

“Winnie, you know I have business to take care of today, look at her, she’s deep in little space right now. Honestly, maybe for the first time even.” I caught her worrying expression.

“Don’t worry lassie, I can take care of your tyke for the day. It’ll be good for her to experience this headspace with no risk of shame.” Liliana nodded, but gave me a pout.

“Now I want to play with my baby girl…”

“There will be time for that later, and ‘toddler’ may be more accurate.”

Liliana fed little miss Rachel her breakfast as I went about getting some things set up for the day. When the alpha had to leave I caught her wiping tears from her eyes. It warmed my heart how she loved this girl for all that she was. It had been some time since I had seen her so whole. I had begun to worry she wouldn’t find what she needed and that’s never good for a wolf as old as she.

The day with Rachel was precious and I did feel bad that Liliana couldn’t be here to see her girl playing with toys in the makeshift play room I had set up for her. Flipping through kids shows it seemed she had quite the affinity for Blue’s Clues. I couldn’t stop smiling as she played along with the little puppy on the TV. Before the day was up I helped her back into her booster seat and put a plastic apron on the girl.

“Let’s paint a picture for your mommy, okay sweetie?” Rachel looked thoughtful for a moment, but nodded happily. By the time she was done, the paper was covered in a finger drawn picture of two wolves by the river. “Good job sweetie, Ms. Liliana will be home soon, so it’s time to get this place and a little girl all cleaned up.

~~~~~~~~~~

My day felt like a dream. I had played with toys, been incredibly engrossed in the stories of kids shows and even finger painted for the first time since I was four. It was wonderful, but I had wanted to do something since I woke up. I crawled on top of Liliana and growled playfully, but instead of growling back at me as I had hoped, she took my chin in her hands softly and looked into my eyes.

“No ma’am. You’ve been in little space all day and I think it’s still lingering a bit.” I whined and tried to protest, but she continued. “I don’t think tonight is a good time for that, I’m not risking hurting any part of you. No, I think tonight is a night for aftercare.” She pulled me close and wrapped a blanket around us. “We have all the time in the world to do everything our hearts desire and tonight I want to be here for you while you reflect on your day. Tell me all about your little adventure.”

I ran, the wind in my fur. Down on all fours. I was free. Everything was right. Rachel was happy. Liliana kept pace behind me. The world was mine.

It had started as Rachel exploring herself and her new form, but once she was accustomed to it, she let me take the lead. Everything was new. Of course I had Rachel’s knowledge of things, but it wasn’t the same as just putting my paws to the ground and going. In the back of my mind, Rachel was giving me the information about things I showed interest in. Trees, the river, so many smells!

I found a rabbit and chased it for a good bit, but we didn’t want to hurt it. I could hunt. I could hurt the rabbit, but I knew I didn’t need to. I didn’t have to hurt the bunny to eat, even if it would be so easy. Rachel didn’t want to kill it, and I knew I didn’t either. I just wanted to play. So I did. Until the sun began to peek through the trees.

I sat staring at the window as everyone ordered. I could see everyone else as they were, but where I sat was a toddler. I didn’t really notice the waitress leaving or what was ordered. I felt like my entire reality was in question. It was Liliana’s giggling that got my attention. Looking around the table I noticed that she and Winnie both had grins.

“What’s going on?” I looked at myself and seemed normal.

“What do you mean, little miss?” Winnie asked with a slight chuckle. I huffed a little and pointed at the reflection in the window. “Oh, well the world just sees you the same way Miss Liliana does, if she sees fit that is.”

Liliana saw how confused I was and came to my rescue. “Oh dear, do you know anything about the fae?” I nodded, so she continued. “Well, Winnie’s gift was inherited from her grandmother, she was a fae you see. So I can amplify her abilities of glamor. It just seemed easier to talk about you as a child if that was what was seen.” My head was spinning, but as if to help me understand, Winnie started to change her appearance in front of me.

I had never heard of werewolves having anything beyond basic pack magics, but this was wild. I looked back to the window and waved at the little me who waved back. Liliana giggled again and got back to business. “Now, you know that Rachel is now second in command, but at the same time it will be like a princess. She has the power when it counts, but still has to listen to her caretakers day to day. That would be you all… well…” She eyed Nico. “Within reason of course.”

“Whatever. I’m a highly skilled man, I don’t have time to be a babysitter anyways.” Nico scoffed in annoyance.

“Nico, boy, you are nothing more than a very lucky hacker.” Ronnie laughed. “But I agree. Don’t we have more important things to do than take care of the runt?”

“Well of course you have important things to do, but I just want to establish ground rules so there is as little confusion as possible moving forward. The pack is family afterall and Rachel is just the baby of the family now.” I blushed furiously and as if on cue, our waitress placed the sippy cup in front of me and picked up my crayons.

“Don’t you want to color for your mommy?” She asked, offering me the crayons. Liliana nodded, so I took them and started to color the menu. While I colored, I started to focus on what I was doing and not the boring pack business being talked about around me. Only responding with noises and nods when I was asked if I would like to move in with Liliana. At one point I fished my keys out of my purse to give to Ronnie to his dismay. Plans were made for my things to be packed and moved while I still had the hotel room for the rest of the week, but my menu seemed far more important to the little wolf in my mind.

When the food was brought out Marsha hopped up to pull something out of the bag. As she tied the bib around my neck, I blushed looking down at my plate of nuggets and applesauce next to my sippy cup of juice. “Don’t want my little sister getting messy.” She announced with glee to which Lilliana raised an eyebrow. Marsha blushed herself and grinned, making Liliana smile and nod.

“Thank you sweetie. Very thoughtful.” And as she spoke I saw Marsha suddenly appeared to be about eight. The waitress looking curious for a moment, but smiled.

“What a helpful big sister you are!” She praised Marsha who was taking in her new appearance.

~~~~~~~~~~~

The rest of lunch and the day were pretty low key. Marsha joined us for a bit when we went back to the hotel, she still looked like a kid to me, it seemed pack magic was something I was going to have to learn a lot about.

“So big sister, huh?” Liliana chuckled once we were back in the room. The glamor dropped.

“I mean, is it my thing? No, but it seemed fun, so why not?” Marsha blushed and Liliana smiled.

“Okay, well I think it works fine if Rachel is okay with it.”

“I have always wanted a sister.” I offered with a smile. Marsha gave me a big hug.

“Well pack is family, so you can consider me your big sister!” She seemed very happy with this idea herself.

“Okay, I have to take care of business tomorrow, so you can tag along if you like or you can explore more of the city on your own?” Liliana put on a movie as she spoke.

“I’m off tomorrow if you don’t want to explore alone?” Marsha offered.

“That would be fun! I’d love to get to know my big sister!” I chirped out happily. As the movie started, I recognized it as 100% Wolf.

“You know this is the reason she wanted to be a werewolf right?” Lilliana teased. Marsha giggled and I knew what I wanted to do tomorrow as I stuck my tongue out in a fake pout.

First Moon Forever 12

After taking a shower, I got on the clothes Liliana had picked from yesterday’s purchases. Black and white thigh high socks that came from a pair of purple boots and met with cute purple shortalls with little bats over it and a little black crop top. Under it all was another Pull-up. If you paid attention as I moved you could just see a bit of the waist peeking here and there. I was thrilled. It wasn’t too much, but just enough to feel cute. How had I blocked out this part of myself for so long?

“You ready? I told the inner circle we would meet them for breakfast to make introductions.” Liliana broke me out of my thought and I pranced out of the bathroom and gave her a twirl. “My my, what a cute little girl I have.”

“All your fault! I swear I was tough before I met you.” I laughed, sticking my tongue out at her. “But… I just need to do something first.” I sat on the bed, picking up my phone. I called the number I had so many times to get the voice-mail again. “Hey mom! I know I said I was coming to the city to look for a place, but I was really doing the thing again… and you know, I did it! And I met the most wonderful girl while I was at it.” I smiled up at Liliana who gave me a sad look. “Well… I’ll call again later. Love you.”

“Oh sweetie…” Liliana sat next to me and pulled me into a hug. “How long has it been?” At first I couldn’t say anything. My voice hung in my throat as I fought not to break down. Tears came and gave way to sobs, but when I finally was able to get composed I spoke again.

“Three years.” I choked out. “One night she was fine, the next she was gone. Doctors say a blood clot broke free and it was over quickly. She didn’t suffer, but it’s still so hard to accept.”

“And you call her to hold onto her memory.”

“Yea, she was all I had. I never knew my dad, didn’t even want to look once I was grown up, so when mom went… letting go felt… like I was all alone.”

“Oh, baby… you’ll never have to be alone again. I’m here for you and you have the pack. You have a family again.”

~~~~~~~~~~~

Getting out of the car, Liliana shouldered the bright pink Hello Kitty backpack. I didn’t know exactly what was inside it, but I had at least a guess as to something. She saw the blush on my face and chuckled. “Oh sweetie, this is just in case you get too excited and have an accident. We have to be prepared after all.” This did absolutely nothing to help my blush, quite the opposite actually. I let out a whine as I followed her through the doors.

It was a cute little diner that wasn’t very busy. There were two people at the counter and then a table of a mismatched looking group of people. Liliana led me over to the table and as we went I became very self conscious about my outfit. I tugged at the hem of my shorts. Desperate to make sure they hid the Pull-up, but completely unaware that there was almost no chance it would show to begin with. All I managed was to look more childish as I fidgeted.

“Stop fussing with it, honey. You look adorable.” I pursed my lips in protest, but tried my best to leave it alone. As we took our seats.

“So this is the new puppy?” A grumpy looking man chuffed. He had a thick British accent and wore a very nice looking suit.

“Yes Ronnie, this is Rachel. She is my mate and my little girl.” Liliana’s response brought a shy grin to my already pink face.

He snorted. “I guess that’s up to you then.” He sneered at me as he looked down his nose. I wrinkled my nose and stuck my tongue out at him. I was about to give him a tongue lashing when a smaller woman, who looked to be in her mid-twenties, chimed in.

“Well Liliana, I for one think she’s just precious.” She offered with a song-songy Irish accent.

“Thank you Winnie, dear.” Liliana said with a smile in her voice. Looking around the table, there were seven of us all together. I hadn’t noticed at first, but Marsha was sitting to the right of Mommy… Liliana. I gave her a shy little wave which she returned with a smile.

‘Nice to see you again, sweetie.’ She thought at me. It was nice that she was not only used to my gift, but chose to use it to talk directly to me instead of having me try and converse as embarrassed as I was.

“Ey, I wanna know why we weren’t asked what we thought about turning someone new to bring into the pack.” Barked a man in his thirties. He was dressed in the coolest fashion as if it was still the nineties he seemed to hold himself to a high regard though.

“Excuse me Nico, but I don’t believe even Maribelle would need to come to you for permission to do anything, let alone your alpha. It would be best you learn to remember just who is in charge. I appreciate your skills, but your attitude? Not so much.” Nico shrunk back in his seat. Liliana’s accent was much thicker when she was upset and he could tell he had better shut up. Maribelle, a bookwormish woman in what I would say was in her thirties, smiled shyly at the mention of her. She didn’t seem like the type to want to make waves.

“Now, this was not a meeting to discuss why I decided to turn her or to know how you wouldn’t have done it. No, this meeting was so you could all meet my new baby girl and so that some things could be discussed.” As she spoke the waitress came over. She put a child’s menu in front of me, complete with crayons.

“Well aren’t you just the cutest!? Excuse me, would you like a booster seat or highchair for your little girl?” I was stunned into silence. Little girl? Was she part of the pack too and just playing along?

Liliana smiled at her. “Oh, no thank you ma’am. I think she can be a big enough girl to not need one.”

“Okay, she really is adorable. Such a lucky mommy.” She praised, before taking drink orders. Liliana handed her a big sippy cup for my juice. I was stunned. I couldn’t feel her in the pack bonds, but here she was acting like all she saw was a two year old. Looking around I noticed Marsha, mommy and Winnie were all smiling. I didn’t understand, but when I glanced at the window my jaw dropped. There looking back at me was a toddler wearing the same outfit I was.

First Moon Forever 11

After dinner we curled up on the bed. Liliana put on an old animated movie I hadn’t watched since I was a kid. I scoffed at first, but within ten minutes I was really enjoying myself. I loved it. I loved her. I was hit with the worst thought.

“Do I really love you?”

“What do you mean?”

“I think I love you? But… I’ve known you for all of twenty-four hours. That’s not long enough to love someone.” I couldn’t keep the panic from creeping into my voice.

Liliana paused the movie and held me close. “Breathe. So, did you like me today?”

I gave it a bit of honest thought. I was attracted to her as soon as I saw her. We had an amazing day, even if she had pulled something from deep inside me without me knowing it was there, but I was actually enjoying that. I really did like her a lot. “Yeah?” My voice came out more winsome than I thought it was going to.

Liliana chuckled and gave me another squeeze. “I think when I changed you…” I could feel her grin and I groaned. “… it amplified feelings that were already growing. The pack will know that I’ve claimed you as my mate and maybe that’s adding to it, but I’m not going to push you to love me if you really don’t. That would be awful for me as much as you. For now we can treat it like dating in the fast lane and see how it goes.”

I felt much calmer about everything as she nuzzled the back of my neck and started the movie back up. Wiggling back against her I whispered. “Love.”

~~~~~~~~~~~

Yawning, I stretched out and bumped Liliana. I thought ‘sorry and she mumbled. Still sound asleep. As gently as I could, I got up to get my laptop and as I went to get back in bed I realized I needed to go to the bathroom. After a moment of deliberation, I climbed back into bed and snuggled up close to Liliana. I put the TV on some early morning kids cartoons and started scrolling my usual morning sites while I told my body to let go.

Scrolling through Facebook, I stopped on an ad for a tabletop game Kickstarter that used a plushie batwolf thing to entice you to back the project. “Ooooh! I want that!” I heard a voice and looked around. It sounded like a young girl with a little raspy undertone. “What ya lookin for?”

“Who’s there?” I asked the room. I didn’t see anyone and glancing at the door I saw it was still safely locked.

“Ooooooh! There’s no one in the room silly.” It wasn’t coming from anywhere in the room, it was in my head. Another voice. Again. When I thought about it, it was like I could see who it was now. Like looking into my own mind and finding someone else. But there was no consistency. One second it was a little girl, the next a small silver furred wolf. She looked at me and smiled. “Hi, Rachel!”

In shock, I gasped and let go. My diaper warming and swelling under my pajamas. The little wolf girl giggled. “I didn’t mean to scare the baby! I’m sorry.” I flopped back on the bed and prodded curiously at the diaper.

“Well good morning baby girl!” Liliana teased and I sheepishly looked over at her. “Enjoying your diapers?” I gave a nod.

“It feels so nice! Warm and squishy and… nice. Wait! There’s a wolf… girl… in my head?”

“Oh, you’ve already met your wolf? It usually takes much longer for that! What’s she look like?”

“Silver fur and then a little girl. Sort of back and forth, but constant at the same time? Why is… my wolf? Why is it a little girl?”

“Oh, she’s probably not really, she appears in a form that matches your emotional state. She’s you after all, just the more wolfy you.” The wolf girl giggled.

“I’m little cause you are!” I let out a little huff that made Liliana chuckle.

“Were you feeling like a little girl? Is that what it is? Is my puppy feeling like a baby?” She glanced at my computer and saw the Batwolf. “Oh! That’s a cute plushie! That’s it huh? Little wolf wants a big Batwolf?” I squirmed and hid my face against her. “It’s okay, this is all normal for little puppy girls.” And she held me close as the kids’ show drowned off in the background.

First Moon Forever 5

Liliana refused to let me walk back to the hotel even though it was only a mile or two. “No ma’am! I will not risk you getting hurt after I kept you out so late. The driver is coming up the road now, they’ll take you back. Two thirty is far too late for a young girl like you to be out walking alone.” I looked down at my shuffling feet. Was it really that late? How did I not even realize? And why did it feel so warm and fuzzy to have her insisting like this?

As the car pulled to a stop, she opened the back door and helped me into the seat, kissing me on the cheek. “I had a lovely night, I hope you’ll call me when you wake up. I really would enjoy spending the day with you.” I nodded, at a loss for words after the sweet little cheek peck and she shut the door. Minutes later I was walking up to my room lost in thought. I had come to the city to try and become a werewolf, but if I could get a girlfriend as wonderful as Liliana that would be great too. Oh gods, werewolves… I forgot I had been going to that club because of the sighting!

I hit ‘call’ on the most recent number in the log. The phone rang for a minute before going to voice-mail. “You’ve reached Liliana! If this is business, please call the other number. Otherwise leave a message and I’ll get back to you.”

“Liliana! I wanted to warn you, I was in that area tonight because I heard about a werewolf sighting. I know you probably don’t believe they’re real, but please be safe. Call me when you get this.” I know I must’ve sounded insane, but I needed her to be okay. I would feel awful if she went through all the trouble to get me back to my hotel safe only to get attacked herself. As I wondered what my next move was, my Ovid began to ring and I looked to see ‘Liliana <3’. “Hello, Liliana?”

“I know I said I couldn’t wait to talk to you again, but goodness. An eager little one aren’t we?” She chuckled. Her voice sounded deeper, like she had been running or something.

“I just… I was worried.” My heart began to calm down and I realized I had been panicking.

“Worried about me? Oh, you are so sweet. Rachel, I’m fine. I got a ride right behind you. I was just… in the shower.”

“Oh, okay. Thank you for letting me know you’re okay. I’m sorry if I seem too eager.”

“No way! You’re sweet. Now get some sleep and call me when you wake up and we’ll see what kind of fun we can get up too.”

“Yes ma’am, good night.” I said before hanging up. I changed into my pajamas and crawled into bed. Turning on the TV I curled up around one of the pillows. Why had I said yes ma’am?

~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I woke up. I thought about getting ready for the day first, but the thought of ‘call when you wake up’ hit me, so I rolled over and grabbed my phone. After the second ring it clicked over and I heard her chipper voice. “Well good morning sleepy head, how’re we feeling?”

“Ugh, fine I guess. H-how’re you?” I groaned out.

“I’m doing very well. Glad you called, does that mean you’d like to get together? I could show you around the city, maybe hit a few of the spots you mentioned?”

“Oh that would be great. Where should I meet you or…” I could kick myself. I was moving too fast.

“Or I could come to the hotel and help you get dressed?” She teased.

“Help me get dre… I wasn’t going to… but yea?” I stammered out getting flustered already.

“Sure thing. I’ll be there in a few minutes. Go ahead and get a shower and everything.”

I could feel the bass growing as much as the warm feeling was as I approached the door. “You’re covered.” Said the bouncer as he removed the velvet rope to let me in. Once through the doors, I was momentarily overwhelmed by the intensity of the bass, swirling neon lights and all the people on the dance floor. Even with this being exactly what I had expected, it was still just so very much to take in. I closed my eyes and shook my head to try and get my bearings, when I opened them I saw the woman heading onto the dance floor. She winked at me as she beckoned me forward.

With little to no thought about why, I followed behind this beauty as she made her way to the middle of the dance floor. Once I finally made it up to her I tilted my head slightly to look down at her. She couldn’t have been more than five feet. I wasn’t sure how I hadn’t noticed before. She nodded towards me, hands cupped around her mouth. I leaned in as she stood on her tiptoes. “You’re adorable, dance with me?” The way she spoke it sounded like a question, but it didn’t feel like a question. She had the faintest hint of a Russian accent, like maybe she was third generation and it just barely managed to hang around.

“I can’t dance…” I mumbled out.

“Just follow me, I’ve got you.” And like instinct, my body followed her lead. We danced for what must’ve been hours, but it was so nice. I felt like I was where I needed to be at that moment and nothing else mattered. Finally she took me by the hand and led me further into the club and upstairs to a private room. It was much quieter here. She slid into a seat and patted the spot next to her. “Sit, cutie.”

Five foot nothing, pastel little club girl and I was the cute one? I let out a little giggle as I slid in next to her. “Thank you so much. That was so fun!”

“Oh darling, you were fun. You just needed a little nudge is all. I’m Lilliana, and who do I have the pleasure of spending my evening with?”

“Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry, I’m Rachel.” I blushed bright red. How had gotten so wrapped up in everything I hadn’t even introduced myself?

“No need to be sorry, sweetie. It’s been a very quick night, hasn’t it?” She asked and I nodded. “You must be starving, can I get you anything?” She slid a tablet across the table to us.

“Oh, you don’t need to do that.” I waved my hands at her generosity.

“But I do and I want to. I insist.” She said, pushing the tablet into my hands. I scrolled through the menu looking for something cheap I could eat. “Get your favorite drink too.” She added, to which I nodded. After making my selections I handed it back. “Tequila Sunrise and… awww, nuggies and juice. Precious!” My cheeks flushed anew as she made a quick selection before putting the tablet down. “Now, how about you tell me about you.” And as I did she listened intently. She didn’t even bat an eye when I talked about my fascination with werewolves. She offered a little about herself while we spent the better part of the night chatting, eating and just enjoying each other’s company. At one point she took my phone, not the burner, and called her own. I’ll call you tomorrow, we should get together.
