The next day they had decided that Santana would ask her parents if she could spend the weekend with Rachel while Rachel asked her dads if she could spend the weekend with Shelby, where Santana would be actually going with. Santana called her up once she got in to her room after that and Rachel grinned at the news and told Santana her dads had said yes to spending the night with Shelby.
Finally it was the night of the full moon, and Rachel waited anxiously in her room for Shelby. Earlier she had called Santana and told her to get ready and now all they were waiting for was Shelby. Suddenly, the doorbell rang and Rachel quickly stood up, grabbed her bag, and ran downstairs. When she opened the door and saw Shelby, she looked back at her dads and said goodbye to them.
“So,” Rachel began once she closed the door behind her and walked to Shelby’s car. “What are you planning for tonight?” Rachel asked once she was in the car.
“You’ll see.” Was all Shelby said, making Rachel frown as she got in the car. The rest of the ride was in silence and Rachel wondered what Shelby was planning to do once they got to the woods. When they finally reached Santana’s house, Rachel nearly jumped out of the car and hurried to the door. She rang the doorbell and soon the door opened and Santana was at the other end.
“Hey.” Santana said and Rachel grinned back. After saying goodbye to her parents she walked out with Rachel and headed to Shelby’s car. Rachel climbed into the back seat with Santana following behind her. As Santana climbed in, she looked at Shelby, who was looking at her.
“Hi, Ms. Corcoren,” Santana said with a nervous smile. “Thanks for letting me come.” Shelby gave her a silent nod before turning back around and driving towards the woods. Santana wasn’t sure what to think and shifted closer to Rachel, who laughed lightly.
“Don’t mind her,” Rachel said into her ear as she rubbed Santana’s back. “She’s just being overprotective.” Santana sighed and smiled at her. The rest of the car ride was silent and when they finally reached the woods, Santana followed her out.
“Santana,” Shelby said and Santana turned to her. “Here’s the keys to drive back to my apartment and sleep tonight. Vicki will let you in,” She threw the keys at Santana and started walking past her. “Don’t damage it.”
“Who’s Vicki?” Santana asked Rachel in confusion.
“The sitter for Beth on the nights of the full moon,” Rachel said as she grabbed Santana’s hand. “She’s the only one that knows about us, other than you.” Santana nodded, shocked and a little jealous that someone knew before her. She silently followed Rachel in the woods until they reached a clearing. Rachel let go of Santana’s hand and walked a few steps ahead before stopping and taking off her shirt. Santana looking away, blushing, and Rachel grinned at her.
“You wanted to see all of me.” She said and Santana blushed harder.
“I do, well not like everything, but um.” She started stuttering when Shelby started staring at her. Shelby sighed and shook her head before looking at Rachel, who had an amused look on her face.
:Rachel, hurry.” Rachel nodded and took the rest of her clothes off and looked at Shelby once she was done. Shelby went into her bag quickly and pulled out a metal chain, making Rachel gap at her.
“You’ve got to be kidding me.” Rachel said as she watched Shelby walk to the tree and tie the chain around it.
“Do you want Santana to see or not?” Rachel bit her lip and looked at Santana then back at the chain.
“Fine…” She said and Shelby motioned her forward with her finger. Rachel walked to her and Shelby started to chain her wrists and ankles together.
“There.” Shelby said once Rachel was tied up and stood up. She ruffled Rachel’s hair before going to the other side of the clearing to do the same thing to herself. Rachel looked at Santana standing a little bit away from her and motioned her towards her with her head.
“Hey.” Santana said as she walked toward Rachel.
“Hey,” Rachel said back with a grin and looked down. “Usually I’m not tied up.” Santana reached out and lightly touched the chain with her finger before trailing it down to her hand and grabbing it.
“I’m sure Shelby knows what she’s doing.” Santana said and Rachel scoffed.
“So you side with her.” Rachel said with a roll of the eyes, but still smiled lightly. Santana smiled softly and leaned in and gave Rachel a kiss on the lips. Shelby watched them from her spot in the woods, chained up, and smiled. She was glad Rachel had someone, and she hoped Santana wouldn’t run away from her after the this night.
“Rachel, get ready.” She said, knowing they were dangerously close to changing. Rachel looked at her and nodded as she pushed Santana away.
“You have to stay away now.” Rachel said and Santana frowned but did as told. After a few minutes of Santana waiting for something, it finally happened. She jumped when Rachel suddenly doubled over in pain and fell onto the ground. She was vaguely aware of Shelby’s pains of cry in the background, all she cared about was Rachel.
Rachel leaned up a little bit and Santana’s eyes widened when Rachel’s screamed in pain as her bones shifted. It was an odd sight, Santana knew that much. She watched as Rachel’s bones shifted and fur grew out of her and her screams of pain became more and more animalistic. Suddenly, the same wolf she saw in her backyard was in front of her again. And once the transformation was done, Santana realized it was probably the most painful thing in the world.
And Rachel had to go through with it every month.
Once Rachel was done transforming, she tried to get up, only to fall back down from the chains. She growled and tried to pull and bite, intent to get out. Santana watched and started walking towards her.
“You’re going to hurt yourself.” The wolf froze for a second before whipping her head to Santana. Suddenly, with renewed energy, she tried to rip away from the chains and Santana took a cautious step back. She remembered when Rachel was in her backyard, her face near hers, and she didn’t hurt Santana.
Slowly, she walked towards Rachel again and stopped just in front of her. She bent down and ran her hand through Rachel’s fur. That seemed to make Rachel calm down and she stopped squirming in the chains. Santana smiled and moved her head from the wolf’s body to her head, petting right between the ears.
“Don’t worry,” Santana said softly. “I’m not going anywhere.”

Rachel woke up on the ground of the woods again, that was the same. But something was different, she just didn’t know what. She moved to sit up and realized how heavy her limbs were. Suddenly she remembered and she snapped her eyes open.
That’s right, Santana watched. She sighed and closed her eyes again. Santana probably got terrified at the sight of her changing and left. Rachel wouldn’t be surprised if Santana never wanted to talk or even look at her again.
A hand on her back made her jump in surprise and she turned around and saw Santana lying down next to her. She gaped at her and blinked, wondering if it was a messed up hallucination her head had come up with. When Santana reached out and lightly cupped Rachel’s face, she knew it had to be real.
“You didn’t go?” Rachel finally asked and Santana shook her head.
“I didn’t want to.” Santana replied and Rachel bit her lip and looked down.
“Did I…”
“Hurt me?” Santana finished and Rachel nodded and looked away. Santana smiled and placed her fingers under Rachel’s chin, forcing her to look up. “No, you didn’t.” Rachel smiled, relieved.
“You didn’t have to stay, it… probably wasn’t a pretty sight.” Santana frowned and shook her head.
“No,” She said softly and Rachel closed her eyes. She was right then, Santana thought it was ugly, that she was ugly; a monster. “It was beautiful.” That caught Rachel off guard and she snapped her eyes opened and looked and Santana.
“Huh?” Santana laughed lightly at the shocked look on Rachel’s face.
“It was you, all of you, and damn it Rachel, I don’t care what you say, it was beautiful,” She leaned closer and gave Rachel and lingering kiss on the lips. “You’re not a monster.” She said once they broke apart and Rachel looked at her silently for a moment.
“I…I love you.” She said softly and Santana smiled.
“I love you too.” Rachel realized that was the first time they said those words to each other and she couldn’t help the grin from appearing on her face.
Santana really did lover her, she was her with her even after seeing Rachel change with her own eyes. Rachel smiled and kissed Santana on the lips.
Santana really was there, and for once since finding out what she was, everything was going perfect. She knew it wouldn’t always be perfect, after all she was a werewolf, but as long as she had Santana, she could get through it.
