Author's Note: I'm sorry that I took a little longer to update. I temporarily had writer's block and I was on vacation with my family. This was a hard chapter to write.

After dinner, things between Cody and Bailey got a little tense. Bailey was madder than a chicken with a clogged cloaca and Cody was as confused and scared like a lost child. As soon as the coast was clear, Bailey sat Cody down on the couch. She had a firm grip on his left arm. Cody looked at Bailey with deep concern.

"So, Bailey, you wanted to continue our chat."

"Yes, I would."

"Could you please let go of me first?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Cody, you are treading on thin ice right now. Do you really think I'm going to let you go? I want to know what your true intentions are."

"So, you think I'm using you?"

"I can't tell unless you tell me. For the last time, Cody: are you using me?"

"What makes you think that?"

"How could you not tell? You dismiss our kiss, you touched one of my private parts twice and you seem so distant in any emotional connection with me."

"I'm not using you, Bailey."

"How can I trust you? How can I know that you're telling the truth?"

"I know that this is difficult to understand but you have to believe me."

"Why should I?"

"Bailey, I trust you so you should trust me. I mean, if I hadn't trusted you then I would have never come back to town to seek out help from you. I didn't want to be friends with you because I thought that it wouldn't be worth it but then I realized that I could benefit if I had you as a friend. But that didn't turn out so well for me because I was smitten for you. I told you this last night and that was the truth. I dismissed the kiss because I was afraid that we would have to depart and it simply wouldn't be fair for either one of us and that is why I seemed so emotionally distant with you. I was trying to play down what could have been between you and I."

Bailey lost her grip on Cody's arm but still had a serious expression on her face.

"What about the sexual stints?"

"I'm not using you. I'm cursed to be a werewolf and I only have two options when it comes to my carnivorous side. I either eat people or I have sexual relations with a partner. I'm a bloody animal, a beast! I wish that there was a third option but there isn't! Bailey, I am losing time. Soon enough, I'll turn into a wolf, I won't remember who you are and eat you alive. You just got to remember that sex and murder are one in the same thing. And I'll let you know right now, Bailey, I'm more than smitten with you, I'm attracted to you. When I was in my wolf form that night you found me licking my wound, I was enchanted by you. For bloody Pete's sake, I had already labeled you as my potential mate while I was in my wolf body. That's why I scared off Moose because, as part of my wolf instinct, I had the urge to fight for you with him. I felt that he encroaching on my territory. I know that may sound strange, but it's the whole truth. But the only problem is that I feel the need not to let you become attached to me in any way because I don't want to get too involved in my situation and get in trouble which could possibly lead to you getting hurt. I don't want that to happen to you. I know that things must be confusing with my clashing ideals as a wolf and as a human guy since I am a werewolf, but both sides of me like you a lot."

Bailey took a moment to let everything sink in. She kept replaying all the words that Cody told her over and over again until she realized that she had one last thing on her mind.

"Why did you keep staring at me though?"

Cody blushed and shrugged his shoulders.

"I guess there came some times when my human and wolf-like desires met in the middle and I became erotically charged by your presence and sheer beauty. I also have nothing better else to do. I mean, come on. I've been on the run for quite a while now and I don't think that I would be able to carry a book with me or have time to listen to some music."

"So, you get horny when your human self has the same desires as your wolf-self?'

"I wouldn't say 'horny'. It's not like I'm warm down below in between my legs. I do get a little warm in my chest but I'm mostly having sexual fantasies. Nothing major."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I may be a werewolf but I'm also technically a regular guy. I also have weaknesses. If I wasn't a werewolf and I was into you, I wouldn't inappropriately touch you. I would give you all the personal space you would need regardless if you were just a friend or if you were my girlfriend which you're not. If I was my regular human self, I'd probably devise a six month plan just to win your heart and if I did win your affections then I take things slow. But none of that matters because I have very little to no control over my body since I'm a freaking werewolf. But, of course, you would be confused and angry with me since I've been giving you a lot of mixed signals. I must seem like a real ass to you right now, Bailey. I'm so sorry."

"No."

"What?"

"I'm sorry, Cody."

"Wait. What for?"

"I should have never accused you of using me. I'm sorry."

"Bailey, what are you talking about?"

Bailey got all teary eyed and cried into Cody's shirt. She mumbled something incoherent as she clutched onto his chest for dear life. Cody patted her back until she pulled away to breathe air. Cody looked at Bailey with a pained expression on his face.

"Bailey, don't be sorry. You have done so much for me that you don't even know. I'm very grateful that you have been able to withstand my odd behavior for this long and I am glad that you will be sending my DNA samples to a scientist that you know in Kansas City."

"Cody, shut up! You shouldn't be praising me. I've been horrible to you. I accused you of using me. I couldn't see a worst insult than that."

"Bailey, it's not your fault. You don't know what I was thinking."

"Cody, I still feel bad. I wish I could do something to make it up to you."

"You don't have to do anything, Bailey. But do you trust me?"

"Of course I trust you. But I'm so sorry."

"It's okay. I'm sorry too. I really am."

"Cody, please shut up."

"Wait. Why-?"

Bailey cuts Cody off by pressing her lips against his own. Cody and Bailey fell down flat on the couch. Cody automatically wrapped his arms around Bailey's body and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Bailey enthusiastically tilted her head to the side so that she could deepen the kiss. Cody could the passion building up between him and Bailey and he felt a little overwhelmed. He was afraid that he get too into the mood and take over. Before bad anything happened, Cody pulled away from the kiss. Bailey looked at Cody with a hurt and confused expression on her face.

"Why did you pull away?"

"Bailey, I was afraid that I would do something stupid and regrettable if I allowed things go further."

"So, what are you trying to say?"

"I'm trying to give you the personal space that you deserve. I'm trying to make things up for you for what I had done."

Bailey smiled a superbly genuine and beautiful smile. She stroked Cody's left cheek and part of his bangs that curved down toward his left ear. Cody raised his eyebrows toward Bailey.

"Bailey, what are you doing? Don't get too attached to me. I'll be gone soon. Can't you go back to being mad at me?"

"No."

Bailey leans in and leaves a soft and light kiss on Cody's left cheek.

"Okay fine. I did use you. There! Now can you go back to being mad at me?"

"I know what you're trying to do, Cody, and it's not going to work. You're not going get out of this."

"Why do you have to be so damn smart?"

"I read and study and have a knack for comprehending many concepts both simple and complicated."

"But why?"

Bailey gave Cody a quick kiss on the lips and then stared into Cody's eyes. She hadn't realized how beautiful Cody's eyes were until she could actually see them up close. She could actually sense the gateway to his soul through his irises and could tell how lost he felt. Bailey sealed her lips together and got off Cody's body and stood up from the couch. Cody sat up in as he stared at Bailey in wonder.

"What's wrong?"

"Are you starting to have any craving anything?"

"Maybe I'm getting a little….hungry for flesh but nothing major."

"I suppose I could find you some raw meat in the refrigerator."

"I think I can hold out."

"No, you can't, Cody. You're a werewolf. You don't have a lot of options when it comes to survival and mental stability."

"Fine. I guess I'll some raw meat to keep myself under control."

Bailey went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator to try to find some raw meat. She couldn't find any raw meat except for Cody's DNA samples lodged in the back of the refrigerator. Bailey closed the refrigerator and sighed. She walked back to Cody.

"There's no raw meat, Cody."

"I guess I'll just fight my wolf side just tonight."
"You won't be able to resist turning into a wolf and eat people."

"No. I'll be fine. I can keep control of my transformation and bloodlust."

Bailey sat down next to Cody on the couch.

"Cody, what's going to happen when you turn into a wolf?"

"I might lose a little will power as human when I ever get to transform back. Each time I'll turn into a wolf, little by little, I'll lose some of my will power. If I don't eat raw meat soon then I'll eventually succumb to my wolf-like tendencies and eat people. I'll just force myself not to transform."

"Or I could be your human sacrifice."

"Bailey, I'm not going to kill you."

"I meant that I could let you have your way with me just until there's more raw meat back in the refrigerator."

"No, Bailey. I wouldn't feel right doing that to you. How could be so okay with this? One moment you were angry with me for allegedly using you and now you totally fine with the concept of me having my way with you. I won't do it, I can't. I like where we are."

"But Cody, what will happen to you if you won't eat raw meat or have sexual stints or eat people?"

"I'll either kill everyone or die."

"I don't want you to die. I want to help you."

"Bailey, let me die. It'll be good for a lot of people including you. You won't have to give yourself up, innocent lives will be saved and I'll be ridden of my curse."

"But you'll also be dead."
"I don't care. I mean, it's not like many people will miss me, well, maybe except for my parents, my two closest friends and maybe my twin brother."

"And me."

"What?"

"I'll miss you, too."

"How would that be possible, Bailey? You and I haven't known each other for very long."

"It doesn't matter. It only takes a few sessions of speaking to each other to care enough to not want the other one die."

"No, I'm not. I'm just…a horny bastard."

"No, you're not. Don't say that because it isn't true!"
"Bailey, it'll be fine. I won't eat anything and I'll die and once I'm dead, the world will be a safer place once again. It'll be a better place without me in it. Regardless if I was a bloodthirsty werewolf or a scrawny nerd, I would do the world a great service if I just ended my life now."

"Don't say that, Cody. I want to help you so you can go back to your normal life and be happy."

"I highly doubt it."

"Cody, I want to see you be cured of this curse. Maybe someday when you're just a normal guy with no claws or fangs, we might run into each other someday and I might want to get to know the sensitive, intelligent guy who has a fragile body but with a really big heart…"

"Bailey, I won't let you do this to yourself."

"It's not like you're using me. I'm giving you permission."

"No! What will your family think? Are you really willing to sacrifice yourself?"

"Yes."

Even if it was for helping me?"

"Yes."
"What if it meant saving the lives of your neighbors and many other fellow Americans?"

"Yes."

"But why?"

"Because I won't mind. I won't care if you have to release some sexual tension onto me. I want help you stay under control in any way possible. I'm willing to do anything to help you not eat many people."
"But Bailey, this is a really big decision to make."

"We can use protection. They keep fresh condemns in stock."

"Why?"

"Well, you've had ten daughters and don't have much to do but work and read a little bit there aren't many other options to keep themselves entertained."

"But aren't there things to do in town?"

"Not really. We're a pretty isolated community."

"But you don't seem bored."

"That's because I usually have my passion for knowledge to keep me busy."

"Oh…I see."

"So, Cody, will we go through with it?"

"Bailey, this is a huge decision. Why don't you think things through for about ten minutes and I'll wait here. After ten minutes, I'll come up to your bedroom and look for a sign to know if you really are willing to give yourself to me or not."

"What would the sign be?"

"If your bedroom door is completely closed then I'll know that you don't want to through with it. But if I see a crack in the door showing a tiny portion of the inside of your bedroom then I'll know that you have made up your mind."

"Okay. Anything else?"

"If we actually do go through with it, which I highly doubt will happen, where will I find some protection?"

"Under the sink on the right side toward the front. The brand is Durex."

"Oh…Okay."

"Okay, so I'll be up in my room thinking things through."

"Okay." Bailey left Cody to himself.

He sat on the couch doing some thinking of his own. He was a little shocked to learn that Bailey thought that he could have been using her. But given the situation and how he has been acting, Cody was not totally shocked by Bailey's reaction. He had to admit to himself that regardless of his wolf-like nature, he was seduced by Bailey's pure beauty. He didn't let her know the extent of his feelings for her for two simple factors: he was too shy to tell her and he felt that it was too soon to be so attached to a person in such a short time. Cody also thought of where he should go and stay away for a few days before he would return to Bailey to hear about his results to see how he, with Bailey's help, can find a solution to his problem. He pondered if his curse was just strictly a spell or was there some sort of thing blending with his DNA code. Cody had to figure out the true nature of his curse so he look at it from a different angle.

Ten minutes flew by Cody before he realized that he had to go up to Bailey's bedroom and find out if she is willing to sacrifice herself for his own well-being. Cody got up from the couch and went up the stairs all the way to Bailey's room. With each step that Cody took, he could feel his heart pound against his chest and the moon forcing its power on his weary human body. The lunar rays took a toll of Cody's body and was urging him to turn into a demon wolf but he resisted. Once he arrived at Bailey's bedroom door, Cody looked for a crack and he found one. He turned toward the bathroom and snatched two condemns. Then he took a big gulp and slowly pushed the door open to reveal an expecting Bailey waiting for him on her bed. She still was in her clothes and sat with both arms at her sides and one leg crossed over the other. But she had taken off her shoes and socks. Bailey stared at him like there was no tomorrow. Cody gently closed the door and approached her. He looked deep into her deep brown eyes.

"May I sit next to you?"

"Yes."

Cody sits down and continues to look at Bailey.

"Bailey, before anything happens, I want you to know how I'll always appreciate what you did for me and I will be forever grateful for what you are willing to do for me."

"Sure thing, Cody."

"It's just that I wish there was another way for me to keep certain tendencies at bay while I'm in my weak human form. I'll be honest with you, Bailey, I can literally feel the moon's power putting a toll of my body. I'm losing energy. I might be able to stay in my human form if I don't something soon."

"That's why I'm giving myself to you."

"But what about your well-being or good daughter reputation? You'll be giving up your innocence. Are you sure you want to do this? I mean, we've known each other for a very short time."

"There's a saying about friendship and love that 'it is not the length of time that you have known someone, but how much you know them'."

"How does that relate to us?"

"I'm just saying is that despite how little or how long we have known each other, two people can connect with each other so well that nothing else matters. It all depends on the people, Cody. Besides, if I did not do this for you, I'd be doing for innocent people. What's the loss of one teenaged girl's innocence and virginity if it will mean saving many other lives?"

"That is a noble and very unselfish cause. It would be a small loss."

"That's my point."

"But you have your future to consider."

"I'll be fine. Now, Cody, are you going love me so you can stay human for another day?"

"Are you sure you want this?"

"Yes."

"And you thought through with all the possible pros and cons of this decision?"

"Yes."

"Just one more question."

"What's that?"

"What compelled you to offer yourself to me?"

"Cody, it's a combination of things. We can talk about it later."

"No, we can't. I probably won't be around for much longer because I need to lay low and work out some problems by myself."

"I suppose I can tell you a few things."

"Please, do."

"I felt bad for accusing you of using me and after you explained your true intentions to me that I felt so moved by your sincere words. Plus, I was hoping that if we went through sexual intercourse together then maybe we create a special and physical bond with each other that if your turn into a wolf that you would remember me and hurt me."

"Is that all?"

"There are a few other factors but they're small. I don't think that it's worth mentioning them."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Now come on, we're wasting time. Let's get this over with before someone finds out."

"Okay."

"Cody, before we go on, I have a question."

"What's that?"

"Well, ummm…"

Bailey leans into Cody's ear and whispers in the question and when she's done she leans away. Cody absorbs Bailey's question.

"That never crossed my mind but even if I was willing to do that, it would only be a temporary fix. I need a more lasting effect."

"Oh….I guess that makes sense. So once this is over, will you become docile?"

"More or less. Yes."

"Okay."

Cody places the condemns on the bedside table. Then he leans in and kisses Bailey .He grabs onto her lean arms and gently pushes her down on the bed. Cody traces his fingers up and down the contour lines of Bailey's arms and then runs his hands down her sides. Bailey wraps her arms around Cody's neck for support and deepens the kiss to make herself become comfortable. Cody kicks off his shoes and slips his hands underneath Bailey's shirt. He massages her firm stomach. Bailey's moans because Cody's smooth touch feels great on her skin. She tries not to get too into the interaction since she only views what they are doing as something to keep Cody under control.

As Cody feels Bailey's stomach and sides, the moon's rays shine on his body. Cody tries his hardest to ignore the moon's demands but he begins to slowly transform. First, his claws come in and then some fur grows on his elbows. Cody digs his claws into Bailey's sides and draws some blood. Bailey moans in pain and pulls away. Cody pulls his claws out of Bailey's body.

"I'm sorry, Bailey. Should we stop?"

"No. We have to speed up before you get a chance to completely transform and become a violent, bloodthirsty werewolf."

"But I don't want to force myself on you."

"You won't. I'm going to help you."

"What?"

Bailey yanks Cody close to her and kisses him on the lips. She takes off her shirt and kicks off her socks. Then she yanks on Cody's belt. She would have preferred to take things slow but she feared that she had to speed things up a little bit. Cody takes Bailey's actions as a sign for him to join in. He takes off his socks, pants and shirt and fiercely kisses Bailey. Cody becomes aggressive and practically tears off Bailey's pants, but executes the action with precise swiftness. Bailey tilts her head to the side to intensify the kiss. Cody gets excited and pulls Bailey close to him. He pokes out his tongue and runs it against Bailey's lips. She opens her mouth and lets Cody slip his tongue in.

Bailey experienced two different emotions. She was scared yet excited that Cody's tongue was in her mouth. It was a completely new experience for her and she had to adapt to it. Cody's hands roam up her stomach and stop on her chest. Bailey knows that Cody is controlled by his animalistic side, but she wasn't expecting him to be so bold so soon. He squeezes her breasts and uses his thumbs to brush over her nipples that are covered by her bra. The kiss becomes more passionate between Bailey and Cody as Cody still develops a few wolf traits. His fangs come back and his craving for fresh blood and flesh shifts into gear. However, Cody forces himself to stay in control. Cody breaks away from the kiss as he can feel his fangs popping out from his mouth. Bailey stares at him with concern and horror.

"Cody, what's happening to you?"

"I'm sorry, Bailey."

"For what?"

Cody doesn't answer Bailey. Instead, he growls and glares at Bailey. The moon shines directly onto his body and he's about to turn around to face it but Bailey gets Cody's attention by turning his head back toward hers.

"Cody, please, stay human just a little longer. Only pay attention me. You do not pay attention to the moon, you pay attention to me."

Cody growls at Bailey, but she doesn't give up. Bailey pulls on Cody's collar and forces his head down so that she presses her lips against his own. Bailey forcibly wraps her arms Cody's neck and sits up while she does so. She then trails kisses on his neck and rubs his ears between her thumbs and index fingers. She leans in and whispers in his left ear.

"Cody, you're better than this. The moon is abusive. Only pay attention to me and I'll care for you. I won't anything bad happen to you. If you promise to be good for me then I'll promise to be good for you."

Bailey then desperately nibbles on Cody's left ear in an attempt to sedate him. He can feel Bailey softly nibbling on his ear and his eyes close to half way. He calms down and fangs and elbow fur go away. He gains some conscious nesses of his form human self and briefly hugs Bailey before he plants soft kisses on her neck. He soon nibbles on her skin and unclips her bra from her backside. Bailey succumbs to Cody's non-oral wishes and pushes off the straps of her bra so that it falls off completely.

Cody pulls back and takes in the image of Bailey's exposed breasts. They were round, lush and creamy peach color. Her nipples were pink and soft. Cody looked back into Bailey's eyes.

"Bailey."

"Yeah, Cody?"

"Your breasts are lovely just like the rest of your body and your personality."

Bailey didn't know what to think of Cody's comment. She decided that he meant well.

"Thank you. But keep moving on so we can finish this."

"Sure."

Cody holds onto Bailey and kisses her neck. He trails his kisses down to her collar bone then down to in-between her breasts. Cody then suckled on the left breast while he fondled the right one. Bailey leaned back and tried to enjoy the feel of Cody's tongue and fingers teasing her skin. But Bailey had trouble relaxing because a whirlwind of emotions went through her body. One side of her wanted to thoroughly enjoy Cody loving her body while the other side of her was scared to death to what would happen if Cody turned into his wolf form. After ten seconds, Cody switched breasts. Bailey tried to join in and slid her hands down Cody's boxers. She felt weird when her hands came in contact with Cody's penis. She got a hold on his manhood and rubbed her hands up and down until she heard a moan from Cody. It was apparent to her that she was capable of pleasing Cody. Even she had to admit that there was a small part of her that was afraid that she would not be good enough to please, but she proved herself wrong. Cody moaned again and got a little too excited. His claws came out again and dug into Bailey's skin. Bailey repressed a painful scream and only mumbled. Cody drew back and gently stroke Bailey's chest to attempt to sooth her pain since there were small droplets of blood sliding down her skin. Cody licked away the blood and resumed caressing Bailey's body. His hands found their way to Bailey's underwear and pulled them off and proceeded to stroke her vagina. Bailey groaned and instinctively tightened her grip on Cody's manhood. In response, he groaned as well. After the domino effect of groans occurred, something new and exciting tore through the awkward atmosphere. Things got hot and heavy between the farm girl and the werewolf boy.

Cody eagerly finger Bailey's clitoris while she pulled down his boxers. She played with his penis while he teased one of her 'hot spots'. The two of them continued what they were doing until both of them were wet, hot and swollen in between their legs. Cody moved his hands up Bailey's body and massaged her breasts. Bailey arched her back and moaned in pleasure for the first time. They quickly got more into the swing of things and allowed themselves full liberty to love the other's body with their obedient hands.

As soon as Bailey and Cody's were hot and sweaty and demanding to finally be pushed far enough to explode, Cody fiercely kissed Bailey while he reached over and grabbed a condemn. He trailed kisses down he neck and all about her breasts. As Cody tasted Bailey's sweet skin, his fangs grew out. Cody bit Bailey in her chest. Bailey bit her lip to suppress her scream and rubbed Cody's head. He pulled away and opened up the condemn and placed it on his engorged penis. He got in position and hovered over Bailey's waiting body.

"Are you ready?"

"Yes. Just do me now."

"Okay."

Cody carefully slid his erect penis in Bailey's vagina. Bailey twisted her face in pain and Cody stopped.

"Are you sure about this? Are you okay?"

"Yes."

"Are you sure I'm not hurting you?"

"Yes."

"Okay."

Cody pumped in and out of Bailey. He went slow at first but then he got faster and faster. As he went, he added more pressure. Bailey's ears, forehead and cheeks turned a deep red color and her body got hotter by the minute. Bailey didn't know if she should enjoy herself or if she should stay silent. Bailey decided to choose the later choice but couldn't stay quiet for long because she screamed right before she exploded. Cody had pulled out of her just in time to release cum himself. Bailey instinctively crossed her arms across her breasts and panted. Cody took off the condemn and threw it on the bedside table before he leaned over Bailey.

"Bailey, are you okay?"

Bailey was overwhelmed with emotion and began to cry. Cody tried to sooth her and gently stroked her cheeks.

"Shh….Bailey please, calm down. What's the matter?"

Bailey got all choked up so she couldn't speak. Before Cody could speak, there was the sound of disturbed and worried Eunice. She kept calling for Bailey to see if she was okay. Cody panicked and didn't know what would happen if Eunice saw him and Bailey naked in bed together. Since he didn't risk of Bailey looking bad in her parents' eyes, he chose to make the situation lean in Bailey's favor. He quickly got off the bed, scrambled for his clothes, and jumped out the window. Bailey sat up and covered herself with the sheets. As soon as Bailey was covered up, Eunice came in to see her daughter distressed and naked and she was rocking back and forth. Eunice closed the door behind and rushed to Bailey's side.

"Bailey, what's wrong? What happened?"

"He…"

Before Bailey could say anything more, she had burst into tears and trembles. Eunice immediately wrapped her arms around her daughter.

"Who was it, Bailey? What did he do to you?"

"He stole my…."

"Did a boy come and rape you?"

Bailey was shocked by her mother's assumption but couldn't help but just cry. Eunice was red in the face but rubbed Bailey's bare back. She cooed to her and then hollered for Clyde.

"Clyde!"

A door could be heard and slammed. Bailey wrapped herself in her sheets before her father came in the room.

"What Eunice?"

"Clyde, Bailey had been sexually violated by a boy?"

"She was raped!? How?! Who's the scumbag?! I'm gonna kill him!"

"Clyde, that's not going to help."

Eunice turned toward Bailey.

"Could you tell what he looked like?"

"No. I was too busy screaming and being in pain."

"Did Cody try to protect you?"

"He hasn't been around for a while."

"Where did he go?"

"He went out to get something from outside but he hasn't come back."

"Do you think that something happened to him?"

Bailey rocked back and forth underneath the safety of her bed sheets. In the meantime, Cody was trying to put his clothes back on but he was frozen with fear and guilt. He could hear what Bailey's parents were saying. He was being accused of raping Bailey. Cody thought about what had occurred between him and Bailey and maybe technically he did rape her. He didn't want to a guy who raped an innocent, teenaged girl who was helping him. Cody decided that it would not help him if he came back as his human form. He took off his boxers and stuffed all of his clothes except for his shirt in the shrinkable and expandable carrying case that he created and then shrunk it and put it back on. Then he forced a transformation, picked up his shirt with his teeth and hopped off the roof.

While Cody prowled around in his wolf form, Bailey was being grilled by her father with discerning questions. Clyde stared at his daughter as he questioned her.

"Why would Cody leave the house?"

"He forgot something from outside."

"How did the mystery boy get up on the roof? How could you not notice him?"

"I did notice him. It's not hard to climb the roof and he forced himself into the room and onto me."

"Who would do this to you? Why would they do this to you? You're a nice girl, Bailey."

"Clyde, asking Bailey all these question isn't helping. She has been victimized and you can care about of why she had let it happen? Don't you have any sympathy for your daughter?!"

"I do. I just want to make sure that she wasn't a sitting duck!"

"Oh, you…."

"What, Eunice? What I am supposed to say to Bailey? I'm sorry that this happened to you and I'll sue the boy's family?"

"Something like that. Yes!"

"I'm sorry. I didn't know."

"Oh, whatever. "

Eunice looked at Bailey. "Bailey, will you be okay?"

Before Bailey could respond to her mother's good-natured question, a loud noise could be heard from downstairs. All of them looked toward the door.

"What was that?"

Clyde stayed quiet and left the room and crept down the stairs and saw a wolf with a shirt in its mouth. Clyde recognized the shirt as Cody's and immediately assumed that the demon wolf returned and killed off Cody. He was red in the face and grabbed the nearest sharp object and charged toward the wolf. Cody saw Clyde charge at him and dropped his shirt on the ground. He ran out of the house and kept running until Clyde got too tired to chase him. He yelled at him and cursed at him and promised that he would kill him one day. Cody collapsed under a tree as soon as Clyde was done chasing him and went back to the house. Cody rested for a while and then went back to the house to see Bailey before he would leave for a few days.

It was ten at night and Bailey was dressed up in her pajamas, snuggled in her bed. She got ready for bed once her father came back home after chasing the wolf and once she picked up Cody's discarded, black shirt. Bailey sat in her bed wondering what will happen to her life if Cody was killed off. She realized that her sacrifice would not be worthwhile if Cody was killed before he could be helped and cured. But then again, Bailey had to admit that she didn't mind that she gave herself up to Cody. She didn't know why, she just felt okay with him doing what he did to her. As Bailey thought things through, the wolf hopped up the roof and pawed at the window. Bailey looked up and immediately recognized the wolf as Cody. She got out of bed and opened the window. Cody jumped through it and had a rough landing on the wooden floor. Bailey closed the window and grabbed Cody by his collar and dragged him to her bed and yelled whispered to him.

"Are you crazy!? Why did you come back? My father is going to kill you!"

Cody just whimpered and looked really sad at Bailey. She sighed and had let go of his collar. She got underneath her covers and patted a space on the bed next to her.

"Fine. Come here, Cody. You can sleep with me tonight."

Cody hopped up on Bailey's bed and circled around before he laid down and curled up in a furry ball.

"What do you think you're doing?"

Cody lifted his wolf head and stared at Bailey in wonderment. He waited for her to continue to speak.

"You screwed with me and stole my virginity. The least you could do is take responsibility for your actions as your human self. If you can force a wolf transformation then you can force yourself to transform back into a human and sleep by my side for tonight."

Cody moaned and then stood up on all fours. Then he transformed and quickly crawled underneath the sheets. Bailey stared at Cody.

"Why are you naked?"

"I learned a long time ago that my clothes rip apart when I transform into a wolf. So, I created a shrinkable and expandable case that holds my clothes when I need them. It is necessary for me to be naked when I turn from my wolf form to my human form until I can put on some clothes. Do you want me to dress up?"

"No. You'll probably leave in your wolf so you can make a sneaky escape from the house."

"Are you sure? I could at least throw on my shirt if it's still around."

Bailey picked up Cody's black shirt from the floor and handed it to him.

"Here you go."

"Uh, thanks."

Cody takes his shirt and throws it on over his body.

"Ready to go to bed?"

"Not yet, Bailey. There are a few things that I would like to clear up with you before we put today behind us and rest."

"What's that?"

"Did I rape you?"

"No."

"Did you feel obligated to have sexual intercourse with me?"

"A little."

"Do you regret it even it might save many lives?"

"No. I don't regret it."

"Do you realize that I'll be gone long before you wake up in the morning?"

"Yes."

"Do you know why?"

"Why?"

"Because I'll have to lay low for a while and also think some things through. I think that if I'm gone for a while the separation will be good for both of us. We both will come personal time and get to think about where our own, individual lives are going."

"Okay. I guess that makes sense. How long will you be gone?"

"I can't say. I'll leave a note for you in the morning on your desk."

"Fine."

"Do you hate me for what I did to you?"

"No. How could you say that?"

"Well, your parents think you got raped."

"That's not their problem. It's my problem. But they also think that I got raped because you weren't here to protect me since you were presumably being killed off by the wolf."

"I'm sorry that I screwed everything up for you. I'm really sorry."

"I understand, Cody. It's okay."

"It's not okay! How could you be so forgiving?"

"I just am. Now, could we please go to bed? We both will have a long day ahead of us."

"Yeah…You with being watched by your parents and me staying in the shadows as the bloodthirsty, heartless, demon wolf."

"Cody, don't say that! You're a great guy. I know who you really are side from you being a werewolf. I'm telling you now, if we lived in the same area and you weren't a werewolf and we happened to get to know each other then I probably would have loved to be more than friends with you. Cody, don't put yourself down just because you're cursed."

"But what if what you did for me won't last long enough and I become a violent, eating machine and that I won't remember you and kill you like all the other people that I've eaten and killed? What if the best thing to do was to kill me from the start?"

"Stop thinking about those things! I'm not going to kill you. I'm going to help you no matter what."

Cody gave Bailey a sincere yet sad smile.

"Thank you."

Then Cody hugged Bailey and kissed her on the forehead. Bailey blushed when Cody was busy kissing her forehead. Afterwards, he settled back down on the bed and laid back.

"So, goodnight, I guess."

"Yeah…Goodnight, Cody."

Bailey laid down on her bed and turned off the light. Cody rolled on his side and spooned Bailey underneath the sheets. Before they fell asleep, Cody murmured something very odd.

"I love you."

Bailey quickly turned her head to Cody. She thought she was imagining things.

"Did you say something?"

"No. Goodnight."

Just then Cody rested his chin on Bailey's shoulder and fell asleep with his arms neatly wrapped around her body. Bailey, on the other hand, was a little confused. She could have sworn that she heard Cody proclaim that he loved her. But she had no actual proof of him saying anything so she shrugged her shoulders and went to sleep.
