The Blue Eyes

Chapter 68 - THE BLUE-EYED WHITE WOLF

There were only less than ten minutes left before the day changed. Less than ten minutes left before midnight. That was when Kris's red car stopped perfectly in the underground parking lot of a big downtown apartment.

Two men got out of the car without a sound. There wasn't much time left, so they hurried to head somewhere. They just kept walking toward the elevator and immediately got into it as soon as the door opened. The taller man quickly pressed one of the buttons on the side of the door. The elevator, which was dominated by the silver color, immediately moved up afterward.

The elevator stopped moving after it reached the 15th floor. The silver door opened, and two pairs of legs stepped out from it. Not long after, they arrived at room number 1501, and Kris reached out his right hand to press the doorbell.

They didn't have to wait long because the door opened immediately from the inside. An elderly lady sitting in a wheelchair greeted the two of them with a smile.

Kris smiled back at her, but not with Kevin. The scientist's face looked distant when he made eye contact with the lady. The lady was Monica Nierling.

"I've been waiting for you. Come in." The lady immediately moved her wheelchair, which automatically moved towards a sofa set in the living room.

Kevin's handsome face was full of doubt. The young man did not immediately follow the lady. Kris, who was standing beside him, seemed to have noticed the wavering. The werewolf grabbed Kevin's hand and pulled it gently to get closer to the owner of the apartment. Kevin could only surrender and not fight back.

Kris and Kevin then sat next to each other, opposite Monica, who was still sitting in her wheelchair.

"So..." Kevin finally willing to speak as his eyes fixed on the lady. "When will you explain about the mysterious power inside my body?"

Kevin didn't sound polite at all. Kris and Monica stared at each other for a moment after hearing the scientist's question.

Monica then turned her gaze towards a clock that was hanging on the wall. "We don't have much time. I will explain everything after all is done," the lady replied.

Kevin looked like he wanted to protest, but Kris immediately tightened his grip on his hand.

"Kevin, you have to calm down for now. We will reveal everything to you, but for now, you have to focus on the power inside your body. This is a crucial time, so don't mess things up."

Kevin looked at Kris, who was just giving him a direction. His eyes were full of questions, but the werewolf just nodded his head to answer all the questions that were stored in the scientist's head.

The young scientist didn't understand what Kris and Monica were talking about, nor did he understand what crucial things that going to happen, but he decided to follow their directions to not mess things up.

The handsome scientist became even more incomprehensible when he began to feel a familiar turmoil within him. He had felt that way several times, and it was when his mysterious power started emerging. But, this time, he felt a much stronger push from within his body, and he unconsciously tightened his grip with Kris's hand.

Kris, who sat beside him, immediately realized that this was the time for the power within Kevin's body to rise. He gripped the scientist's hand tightly to give him strength.

Kevin's eyes, which were brownish-black, gradually start to turn bright blue. The blue beads flashed brightly, and from within, a mysterious blue aura emanated. The aura then slowly entered Kevin's body and started enveloping his body, emitting a dazzling light.

Kris and Monica had to close their eyes because of the glare of the light produced by the blue aura. Kris had to fight harder because this time, Kevin's hand was becoming icy cold. He had to use his power a little to cool down the icy temperature.

The process was still going on, and Kevin unconsciously started groaning. He looked like someone who was in pain, or maybe someone who was at a battle against his own power.

"Don't fight it, Kev. Let it enter, let it become one with you. It's not a bad power, Kevin. Let it enter your body. Let it merge with you," Kris whispered calm words to Kevin, who was a little lost control because the power was too strong and very hard to control.

Kris's words calmed him down a little. He struggled to accept the power, trying to let the blue aura fully enter and unite with him. The wild blue aura started to become 'tame' because it felt accepted by the owner of the body. The light was no longer dazzling, so Kris and Monica could open their eyes again and look back at Kevin, who was still struggling.

And, once the two audiences opened their eyes again, they no longer found Kevin sitting on the sofa. Instead, they found a white wolf with blue eyes sitting elegantly on the sofa. Kris's hand, which had been holding Kevin's left hand, now gripped the wolf's left foreleg.

With amazement, Kris and Monica stared at the figure of the white wolf in front of them.

"We did it, Kris. We did it," the lady said with her face filled with mixed emotions. Her eyes even filled with tears.

Kris also looked happy, but he returned to focus on the white wolf that looked puzzled beside him.

"Kevin..." Kris's soft voice was heard to call the wolf, and surprisingly, the wolf turned to Kris.

Yes, the blue-eyed white wolf was Kevin Beischel. He had just transformed into a blue-eyed white wolf.

The wolf's blue eyes stared at Kris in confusion. His mouth opened as if he wanted to speak, but no sound came out.

"It looks like Kevin can't speak when he is in wolf form." This time, it was Monica who spoke.

Kris did not respond to the lady's words and continued to gaze at Kevin's wolf figure. Slowly, he let go of Kevin's foreleg and used his hand to stroke the wolf's white fur, which turned out to be very soft. The sensation even gave Kris goosebumps.

"Kris, don't take advantage of Kevin's new form," Monica suddenly warned Kris, who was still enjoying the softness of Kevin's fur. "Help Kevin to transform into a human again," continued the lady.

Kris smiled shyly at the lady, then said to Kevin softly, "Kev, the power in your body is so strong right now, and it must be very difficult to control it to your liking. But, try to concentrate and think about what your human form will be. Think hard about it until you transform again. You can close your eyes if it helps you concentrate."

Kris taught Kevin carefully because he knew that it was not easy to shapeshift as they wish. Kris learned how to shapeshift when he was a kid, and he admitted that it was not an easy matter. Moreover, Kevin's current power was far greater than his, so it must be difficult to control that power.

Kevin took Kris's advice and started closing his eyes. His mind was still jumbled, so he tried to arrange all of his thoughts and concentrated on only one thing, namely the transformation to his human form.

The white wolf seemed to be concentrating earnestly. Kris and Monica were anxiously awaiting the outcome of Kevin's effort.

The minutes passed without any visible results, but then a mysterious blue aura once again covers the wolf's body, and slowly, the white wolf transformed into a human. Yes, it was Kevin, but Kevin in a different version with blue eyes and white hair.

Kris and Monica's eyes widened when they saw Kevin's current appearance.

"It's okay. As time goes by, you will be able to control your power more perfectly, Kevin." Monica chuckled at Kevin's current form, which looked like an anime character.

That was different from Kris, who was now staring at his lover without blinking. "I don't mind if you are in this form every day, Kev. You look adorable," said the burly man.

Kevin, who now had a new look, suddenly hit Kris's shoulder in annoyance. "How do I look right now? I need to look in the mirror."

Kevin was almost up from the sofa, but Kris held his arm. He then held out his cellphone without saying anything. Kevin, who immediately understood, grabbed Kris' thin phone and quickly opened the front camera application. And, his blue eyes widened seeing his new appearance.

"What is this? Why is my appearance striking like this?"

Kris laughed at Kevin's reaction, but not with Monica, who patiently explained to the young scientist, "You just can't fully suppress your power so you can't return to your true form yet. Don't worry, Kev. After a while, you will be able to control it completely."

Monica's soft voice made Kevin turn to her, but his blue eyes were unfriendly and piercing towards the lady.

"I've turned like this without knowing what really happened to me. So, can you explain everything to me, Mrs. Monica Nierling?" Kevin asked coldly. "Or maybe, should I call you... Professor Selena Beischel?"
