Just Once

Three years of marriage brought nothing but a thorn to my heart. My child was critically ill and in need of treatment. My husband didn't care and even called me unfaithful. In my desperation, I sold my body and soul in exchange for the recovery of my child. His name was Benjamin. Dominating the underworld and influencing politics, he was like a poppy that impressed, captivated, broke, and disillusioned me. He said that different from the others who approached me only for sex, he wanted every part of me. He also said that I was his only one and that nothing in this world could compare with me. Then he told me that these were all lies. I told him that these were true to me.

I took in a gulp of air, getting my breathing back to normal. Keith was still in a trace with his whitened eyes, but his body was still. I walked up to him and nudged him with my nose. He blinked a few times before his eyes turned back to their normal color. "You okay?" he asked, running his hand through my fur. Nodding, I pushed my head into his hand. "I felt that" he said quietly.

Dr. Nale got closer and listened into our conversation. "Bones being pulled out of their sockets- twisting, cracking" Keith paused and took a deep breath. "I looked through your eyes" he informed me. I cocked my head in question. "When you were shifting, I wasn't me. It was like I was in your body and experiencing everything with you. I saw what you saw. I was looking at myself" he explained.
