Chapter 85: Mad Wolf Girl


    In the blink of an eye, I went from having a giant brown werewolf trying to bite my neck to now having a


    thrashing and very human Lisa wing at me with her manicured nails.


    “What the fuck?!” I shouted. Enzo, who had just shifted into his own wolf form, shifted back into his


    human form and lunged forward, grabbing Lisa by the back of her shirt and yanking her off at me as


    she continued to snarl and il her limbs like an animal.


    I sat up, panting, with wide eyes.


    Lisa was a werewolf?


    But… Enzo had cured her!


    Enzo pinned Lisa to the ground. She finally rxed when she saw him above her, but her eyes were


    feral, so wide that I could see the whites all the way around her irises.


    “What the hell happened to you?!” Enzo snarled, his voice low so as not to alert the sleeping humans


    inside.


    Lisa panted for a few moments, her wild eyes darting between Enzo and I, before answering. “You


    guys are pathetic,” she said. There was almost a hint ofughter behind her squeaky voice. “I’ve been


    watching you for days now. It’s hrious watching your little game of back-and-forth. Remember when


    we used to do that, Enzo? God, it was fun.”


    Enzo rolled his eyes, his grip still firm on Lisa’s shoulders as he continued to pin her against the


    ground.


    “That’s not what I’m referring to,” he said.RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only


    Lisa giggled. “Oh, you mean my new threads?” she said, referring to her newfound wolf form like it was


    just another outfit. “I’m a mad wolf, baby.”


    If Lisa didn’t sound utterly insane before, she sure did now. Enzo nced up at me, frustration and


    puzzlement drawn across his face.


    “Did someone give you the serum, Lisa?” I said, walking up to them now that I had caught my breath


    and


    crouching next to her. As I looked into her eyes, I noticed now that they were entirely bloodshot. She


    licked her lips hungrily as she stared at my neck, like she was just dying to sink her teeth into my flesh.


    I could see that her canine teeth were much longer and sharper now than they had been before.


    “Oh, the Mad Wolf serum?” she replied, her tone of voice mocking. “Of course. How could I refuse?”


    I sighed and made eye contact with Enzo for a second. “Who gave you the serum?” Enzo asked.


    Lisa coughed a bit and replied in a whiny tone of voice, “I’m not gonna attack you, alright? Whatever


    your ugly new girlfriend did to me just now made sure that I can’t shift. Can you loosen your grip a bit


    so I can breathe, at least?”


    Enzo hesitantly loosened his grip on Lisa, but still held her firmly to the forest floor in case she tried to


    sneakily shift again.


    “Answer his question,” I said.


    Lisa rolled her eyes. “Look, I don’t know exactly who it was,” she said, keeping her eyes on Enzo. “I


    knew something happened to me during those days when you had me locked up in your house —


    which, by the way, was pretty hot if you ask me — and then after that, it was like something was


    missing… I needed my fix, you know? So when I got a cute little package with a bow and everything


    that said that drinking what was inside would make me feel better, and also make you fall in love with


    me again, I couldn’t help myself from giving the serum a try And I’ll tell you what — I feel better than


    ever. Or at least I did, before she ruined it just now.” Lisa nced over at me, her eyes projecting pure


    fury as she began to struggle again toe after me.


    Before she could get to me, Enzo suddenly pressed his thumb into Lisa’s forehead and whispered


    something under his breath. Her body went limp and her eyes closed, her chest rising and falling


    steadily and deeply as though she had just fallen into a deep sleep.


    “That should keep her sedated until the morning,” Enzo said, standing and staring down at Lisa’s limp


    body.I bit my lip as I stared at her as well, my mind racing with a million thoughts. First and foremost,


    whoever gave Lisa the Mad Wolf serum was likely also the same person who gave the serum to Justin.


    Secondly… How did I make both Lisa and Justin shift back into their human forms?


    Enzo must have read my mind, because he held his hand out for me. I took it, and when I stood, he


    furrowed his brow as he looked at me. “You somehow made both of them lose their wolf forms,” he


    said, shaking his head. “ Temporarily, at least. Either way, that’s a really powerful and rare ability, Nina.”


    I narrowed my eyes, unable toe up with the right words. It seemed that every day, my werewolf


    heritage was bing more and more concrete.


    Would it only be a matter of days now before I was suddenly able to shift, too?


    What if someone gave me the Mad Wolf serum, and that was why I had all of these abilities all of a


    sudden?


    As I stood there and thought about the serum, something else came to mind. I had nearly forgotten


    about it with so much going on, but now that I thought about it…


    “Oh my god,” I whispered, taking a step back from Enzo and looking down at Lisa as my mind raced.


    “What?” Enzo said in a concerned tone.


    I shook my head. “I just remembered – – I almost forgot — I was going into the chemistryb the other


    day, and Edward came out just as I got there. He put something in his pocket and was acting


    strangely.”


    Enzo furrowed his brow, then it was as if a lightbulb went off above his head. ”


    You know, now that you mention it, ne seemed to be hiding something on the night that we found Justin


    in the woods,” he said. “You don’t think…”


    “What if Edward is supplying the Mad Wolf serum?” I asked, starting to pace back and forth. “I mean,


    it’s a bit of a stretch since he was the one who was wiping people’s memories at the beginning of the


    semester… But maybe things changed…”


    Just then, Lisa let out a loud snore. Enzo sighed and crouched down, scooping her up. “We should get


    her inside,” he said. I nodded and followed him, and together we headed back to the lodge and carried


    her up to our room. Iid out a couple of spare nkets and a pillow on the floor and heid her down.


    “I don’t know how I’m gonna exin this one,” he whispered.


    I bit my lip, thinking for a moment.


    There really was no viable exnation for Lisa’s sudden appearance. She came with no vehicle in the


    middle of the night, and there was no telling whether or not she would suddenly decide to shift again in


    the morning and reveal her true nature to everyone.


    “Maybe it’s time,” I whispered, looking up at Enzo. He turned toward me, his brow furrowed.


    “What do you mean?” he asked.


    “I think it’s time you tell your team about werewolves.”
