Oh the irony. When will Kiara figure out immune?

What had started as an adverse meeting, had turned into an invaluable information session. Kiara knew little to nothing of the luperci virus and she had never asked any of her other friends about what happens to those who had been infected as opposed to born with the virus. She didn't know about the change or how it came about. All she knew was that it happened and that those who could change acted differently from her and knew different things. Kiara knew that change was important. Change brought about the seasons and let one grow older and wiser. However, becoming a luperci was not how she wanted to change and she rejected the idea thoroughly.
The arctic wolf's desperate plea was met with a kind, but blunt truth. There was nothing she could do. She would change and that was that. She would have to accept that fact and move on. The only blessing she had was that for next four months she could live her life normally and she would not give the virus to her puppies. Solemnly she nodded, not daring to speak for fear of loosing control again. Palaydrian's gentle words and sympathy helped soften the mental blow Kiara suffered from. Hope swelled in her breast as Palaydrian offered to help her through her first shift. Her voice came out as a shaky whisper. "Th... thank you. That... means so much to me."
One of the worst things Kiara thought she would have to go through was shifting alone. However, the other female's generous offer was exactly what the young mother needed. To have someone help her through such a horrible time in her life and walk her through the new world. Kiara was expecting to become a puppy again, wide eyed and scared of her new life.
