Daniel stood near the window, holding his glass of wine, just as Julia had been before he had arrived. He stared out at the horizon, which in the darkness played dirty tricks on the nature all around. Julia contentedly ate her simple dinner and she was lost in her own world. The dog slept like a log on the couch, with no worries of tomorrow. At some point, Julia had thought that she might be dreaming all of this and it could not be true. A stranger, who looked exactly like her dead husband, showed up in the middle of the night and made himself comfortable and it felt like home to her. She was promiscuous, but not foolish. She was smart. Smarter than many other women out there who thought they were smart. She had always excelled in her intuitions and she didn’t need anybody’s approval. She was an independent woman and was aware of her likes and dislikes. It was not wrong for Julia to do whatever she wanted to do. Nothing was right, nothing was wrong. It was all about her instincts and the way she moved with them.
Julia stared at Daniel as she ate. His muscles looked chiseled and as hard as rocks. They were curvy and sexy. Julia sipped on her wine and kept her gaze fixed on Daniel without even blinking. Daniel was tall and muscular. He looked like a body builder and had cuts and scars on his body like battle wounds. He was rugged, tall, and sexy. Did she want him? She nodded as she turned away.
Daniel gulped his wine down and came to Julia. His eyebrows arched in a strange way as he looked into her eyes. He gave her a little smile. She bit her lower lip. They both knew what they wanted. Daniel nodded, and suavely scratched the back of his head as his smile grew bigger and he gave Julia such looks that made her blush.
Julia finished her wine and put her plate aside. She wanted to get up and move away from the couch, but Daniel caught her wrist. Julia was startled by this and asked with a serious grimace, “What are you doing?”
“I am doing what you want me to do in your head.” Daniel confidently remarked.
“Oh, shut up and let me go!” shouted Julia
“No, I don’t think so…” said Daniel.
Julia pulled her hand away and left Daniel on the couch by himself, giggling like a boy. The dog had been woken up by the scent of Julia’s food and her shout and wanted to go back outside. He got up and stood by the door, wagging his tail. Julia opened the door and let the dog out. She saw something strange in the distance, moving behind the bushes. Upon observing closely, she saw two golden eyes shining right at her. She slammed the door and came inside.
Daniel was looking Julia up and down, from head to toe, without moving an inch from his place. An unlit cigarette hung from his mouth as he fingered his Zippo. Julia moved slowly toward the bedroom and gave Daniel a little nod with a sly smirk on her face. Daniel smiled wide and got up.
CHAPTER-4
They hurried into the bedroom. The bedroom was not fancy, but a modest one, with pictures hanging all over the walls. The place looked messy, but not filthy. There was a pizza box and chip wrappers, a few soda cans and beer cans, and books and magazines scattered around.
Julia’s heart was pounding hard and fast. She was desperate for Daniel to ravage her body. Daniel understood without a word that she needed him badly. He moved closer to her and grabbed her curvy waist. She moaned and shut her eyes. He pushed her against the wall and lifted her legs up. She wrapped her thick legs around Daniel’s waist. His muscular body held her easily. Their lower bodies moved in rhythm against one another in wild intensity. His lower body swayed and she jerked her head back as a passionate moan escaped her lips. Her bosom swelled and her nipples turned hard as rocks. He slid his hand inside of her shirt and felt the fullness of her smooth bosom and erect nipples on his fingers. He covered her entire bosom with his large hands, caressing every inch of her firmness. Her moans grew louder as he slipped his other hand between her inner thighs, letting his fingers feel her juices and her swollen hills and valleys. His fingers rolled through her sticky wetness as he rubbed gently with his thumb and index finger. As his index finger slipped inside her, she clutched his hair and ravaged his neck with her lips like an untamed beast. She pushed him on the floor and pounced on top of him, biting and licking his lips like a hungry animal. He rolled her over onto her back as she unzipped his jeans and held his rock hard shaft in her hands. Her ecstasy knew no bounds. He rubbed it all over her and she guided it between her thighs. As he slipped inside of her, he took her wrists in his grip and pinned her arms to the floor. She gave a cry as she writhed with pleasure and bit her own arm in ecstasy. Once he was inside, he could feel her heat and her grip on his shaft. He began to ravish her madly. Her cries of pleasure reached the woods as she climaxed underneath the strong, rugged body of Daniel, who kept her erect nipple in between his teeth.
They lay together on the floor breathless and perspiring. Julia’s lips curled into an involuntary smile. Daniel kissed her cheek as he got up and went to the bathroom.
There was a sudden knock at the door which startled Julia. She ran to the bathroom and asked Daniel to check. They quietly walked toward the door and opened it fast to surprise whoever was there at such an insane hour. To their surprise, no one was there. Julia rushed to the back door alone to look out to the back yard. When she came back to the front door to get Daniel, he was nowhere to be found. Daniel was gone. She searched every room, but there seemed to be no trace of him except for his love bites on Julia’s body. Confused and frightened, Julia began calling his name, “Daniel? Daniel! Where are you? Quit playing games now! Come on...”
Silence.
She walked into the sitting room and felt the eerie presence of something which made her jump and freeze in mid-step. She began to tremble from head to toe. Unable to bear the melancholy, she ran out of the back door into the open. Without seeing where she was running, she bumped into something huge and furry. She raised her head and screamed at the top of her lungs. She had bumped into a hairy wild bear which was staring ferociously into her eyes. She turned to run back, but the bear was on her heels. Suddenly she bumped straight into a second bear. She was caught now in between the two. She fainted.
The bears had caught her. One of them held her legs, another grabbed her shoulders, and they carried her through the path at the border of the yard which lead into the woods. Unconscious, Julia didn’t know a thing. She began to mumble incoherently. She felt she was trapped in a nightmare.
When Julia opened her eyes, she found herself in a cave-like place surrounded by candles. She woke up with an excruciating headache. She saw a bear next to her, another in front of her, and soon realized that there were many bears around her. Frightened and frozen, Julia felt numb and was speechless. Tears fell from her innocent eyes. One of the biggest bears in the group moved close to Julia and kept its hand on her head in an attempt to reassure her that everything was okay.
Julia was intelligent and intuitive. She understood that there was no danger. She slowly rose and walked outside of the cave. She saw that there was a bonfire and many more bears were sat around it. Some were standing, and others were dancing. She sat off to the side and watched them dance and interact with one another. She noticed the two bears who had kidnapped her looking straight in her direction. She recognized them instantly. On seeing them, she felt dizzy and passed out once again.
She slept for a very long time. When she woke up, it was mid-day. The bears were gone and she was all alone in the middle of the woods. Frightened, she stood up and began to wander around. She felt a strong hand grab her shoulder to stop her. With a yelp she jumped and spun around to find two tall and muscular men standing behind her. They looked like twins. They were David and Daniel. Julia froze.
“David!” Julia exclaimed in astonishment.
David smiled as he grabbed her and held her close to him. They looked deep into each other’s eyes and he planted the most passionate kiss she had ever felt on her lips. Julia regained her breath and punched him in the stomach as she wept on his chest bitterly.
“How could you?! How could it be possible?! I was in distress when you were alive
this whole time?!”
David took her hand and the three of them sat down on a rock nearby. Daniel was chewing a twig and spat on the ground.
David held Julia’s hand tightly and looked deep into her eyes. “I was not dead. There’s something that I wanted to tell you, but I couldn’t. I had to play dead for the rest of the world. I didn’t want anyone to know my secret.” David said.
Julia furrowed her brow and anxiously asked, “What secret?”
“I am a werebear.” said David.
Julia drew back in surprise. “You’re what?” she exclaimed.
There was a moment of silence between them as the wind brushed across their faces. They sat there for some time without moving or speaking, with Julia’s mouth agape.
“Yes, I am a werebear. It is a condition in which I shift from a man to a bear. This thing has run in our family for generations, which is why we are so secretive. The bears you saw last night were all my family. Sometimes we have to escape for months and be here in the jungles in order to save ourselves from the eyes of the cruel world. Our kind has existed in this world for centuries unknown, but we have been forced to hide in order to live and to save our clan.”
“Then how did you escape your death? What happened at the sight of the accident?” Said Julia
“I staged my own accident, as simple as that, in order to escape into the jungles. I sent Daniel to bring you here, but when it took so long for you guys to return, I had no choice but to go to the house myself to make sure you were okay. We didn’t want to reveal our secret at the moment we abducted you because you were already under a serious shock. We wanted to give you some time.” David explained everything.
Julia blushed and looked away. She felt so many emotions running through her at once. David was unaware of what had happened in her bedroom that night, the same bedroom where they had spent their wild nights together making insane love as husband and wife. Daniel looked away, munching an apple.
CHAPTER-5
Julia asked David about the property. David coughed and shot a sideways glance at Daniel, who began to laugh. His laugh was contagious. It spread to David and soon they were both laughing so hard that they had to try multiple times to regain their composure.
David patted Julia’s hand, gave her a kiss on the cheek, and said, “That was a joke, darling. It is ours. Don’t worry about it.” Julia gasped and slapped his leg “You beast!” She exclaimed with a smile.
Suddenly, the sky grew very dark. They all looked up at the same time to see enormous storm clouds moving in fast. Their view became speckled with birds and bats, trying to find a good place to take shelter. Daniel and David rose to their feet. They stood side-by-side, looking like warriors in a battle. Julia stood close behind them, in the center of the two, as if they were one big shield. They heard the galloping of horses drawing quickly near. There were many of them. As they came into view, David and Daniel could see Krantoz, the bear slayers, riding on the horses. They were werejackels, violent beasts that could shift from jackals to humans during their seasons.
The horses all came close and formed a circle around Julia and her human shields. The clan leader trotted forward on his horse. In one swift movement, he shoved his sword in David’s face, stopping it less than an inch from his eye. The leader then spat in his face and haughtily exclaimed, “Ha! Look, look! Who do we have here? The coward who staged his own death though he is still here!”
David wiped the spit from his cheek and flung it at the ground. “Look, William, I don’t want any fights. We want to live in peace. We don’t want any violence.”
Not drawing his sword back at all, the leader glared at him for some time. “Your clan must leave or die”, he finally warned.
“Look, whatever differences we had, we can solve them by leaving each other in peace. We just want peace”, pleaded David.
William nudged his sword forward in a swift and sudden motion. He had almost stuck David in his eye, but he had jerked back his head just in time. It seemed almost the same instant that Daniel charged forward, leapt in the air and punched William in the face. William was caught off guard by this surprise swing of Daniel’s. The punch sent him flying off of his horse. He landed hard on the ground and rolled around, clutching his head in his hands and bleeding profusely from the mouth. A gang of about five big men rushed forward to attack Daniel, but David swiftly kicked them all down. The men got up and charged toward David and Daniel a second time. They pushed Julia aside as the group was engaged in a fearsome battle. The start of battle had morphed David and Daniel into their werebears forms, while the gang shifted into werejackals. The fight turned beastly.
After a brief battle, the werejackals were forced to flee into the deep jungles. Their horses followed, galloping swiftly behind them. David and Daniel lay on the ground where they shifted back from their werebear forms to the big, chiseled men that Julia recognized. Daniel was injured during the fight and lay bleeding from his chest. There was a tooth stuck into the upper part of his chest, just below his neck. Julia and David helped him back to the cave where other people, who were the werebears last night, came forward and helped them all inside. It was a call for battle as they were certain that the werejackals would return for revenge. They were infamous for killing and eating werebears. The werebear tribe had heard of a secret tool which had the power to eliminate the entire clan of werejackals, but as far as they were concerned, it was just a legend. None of them knew how or from where they could obtain this tool, or even what it was exactly that they needed to search for.
Julia gently washed Daniel’s wounds with clean river water and a piece of cloth. She was able to remove the tooth from his chest. As she caressed his body with the wet cloth, she watched the drops of water slide down the crevices of his muscles and lost herself in his wet and glistening skin. Something about Daniel drove her wild with passion. Though Daniel and David were the same in a million ways, she had found them to be extremely different between the sheets. David was watching Julia caress Daniel and he recognized the look of passion in her eyes. He understood her feelings and had seen them for himself. While he was lurking around the house the night before in search of his wife and cousin, he had spotted Julia and Daniel making passionate and wild love quickly in his bedroom. Apart from the arousal he had felt watching them, he seemed not to mind it at all. Bears were known to share their partners and after all, they were werebears.
David shook his head as he pulled himself out of his reverie and came back into their current situation. The question still lingered: how to find the secret that would eliminate the werejackals once and for all?
Meanwhile, in the Krantoz clan, mayhem was breaking out everywhere. Shawn, William’s older brother, was the most violent of the group. After hearing the news of the werejackal’s defeat during their miniscule battle, his eyes turned red with anger as he let out a growl and bared his sharp teeth. He swore blood revenge that very moment. Shawn and William’s father, Robert, was old, but he was also very cunning and shared the same violent and bloodthirsty traits that ran among the clan. His one true wish was for his sons to kill off the entire human race, but this had proved to be an impossible task so far as armies of people would always chase them away and drive them back into the jungles.
William was the leader of this clan even though he was more of a pansy than most. He had the irritating habit of provoking others to fight without any reason. He was always picking small fights. His clan simply tried to ignore this due to his young age. He had forced his father to make him the group’s leader, and while he was, indeed, the leader, everyone knew that Shawn was the one who made all the important decisions for the clan. William was just the bloodthirsty face of the leader. Shawn did all of the real work for his younger brother. Shawn was clever, level headed, and shrewd. He declared that they would wait until Juan’s Day to kill the werebears. They could easily ambush and attack them on this day of celebration in which the werebears gather to celebrate their ancestry and generation lineag
e.
There were skulls decorating the surrounding area where the werejackals hooted and danced around Shawn. Shawn wore a skull around his neck. He was a huge creature and his eyes revealed craze and blood. He had been a professional killer and he despised humans from the core of his heart. The only beings he hated more than human beings were the werebears. The clan swore altogether that they would kill every last werebear that lurked around the area. They dispersed with a unanimous howl.
The night arrived for the werebears with much fear and trepidation. Julia, David, and Daniel went to a cave where they planned the details about the upcoming battle which had the potential to rip the jungle apart. David and Daniel began their transformations into werebears. Their skins changed as they growled and groaned. Their bodies became large. It was almost time for the battle. Julia’s voluptuous chest rose with a gasp and her eyes were shining like a million stars as she watched their transformations. Watching these two big, strong men shift into even bigger and stronger beasts got her excited and she began to think about the passionate encounters she had with the two of them. She felt safe with these beasts who would fight to protect her with their lives. Julia knew that she had to participate in this battle to prove that she was worth the fight and to show how much David and Daniel both meant to her. She was a smart and beautiful woman who could make things run according to her wishes and desires. As she watched her men shift, she began to think and consider her own battle plan.
