I'm really sorry to anyone who read this story before. I know it's been over a year since I've updated it but I hope you like it! I'm a little rusty with the writing but I hope its good!


(Justin's POV)

I've take thousands of pre-college exams and tests and nothing could've prepared me for the forbidden book of spells. Not only is there hundreds of pages, but there is also entire passages written in Latin and other foreign languages. It also doesn't help when you have your little sister leaning over your shoulder and her wolf boyfriend scratching in the background.

"For the love of everything sacred! Can you stop biting yourself?" I yelled over my shoulder. I heard a low growl in response.

"He can't help it! He has fleas!" Alex said defensively.

The tension in the room has been rising ever since Alex, Juliet, and Mason had returned from Transylvania. The happiness over finding Mason had long gone and now Alex was frustrated that we haven't had any luck in finding a spell to reverse the vampire bite. Juliet's and my parents were in their respective sub shops working and bringing us food every so often. I could tell Juliet's parents enjoyed their newfound life. It hopefully won't be long before Juliet and I can enjoy our life together. But first we have to help Mason and Alex. Three hours in the lair translating and reading every curse in the forbidden book of spells and we've found nothing that refers to reversing werewolf curses.

"Ugh! This is hopeless!" Alex shouted. She turned from the book and started pacing.

"Hey, if Mason stays a wolf forever can he sleep in my room?" Max asked. I didn't turn around when I heard a whirring sound that could only be Alex sending a spell Max's way.

"Fighting won't solve anything Alex!" I scolded.

"It will solve the Max problem!" Alex said back. I combed my fingers through my hair in frustration. I've gotten to the last page of the book and I'm pretty sure its not going to have werewolf spells. I'm also worried what Alex will do if she finds out that Mason can never be normal again…well his type of normal.

"Alex I'm sure we'll find something! Maybe we can find a type of potion or something!" Juliet suggested. I turned to see my sister's response but Alex only rolled her eyes and continued pacing.

"We've looked through all of the potions we could find, and there was nothing." I said gravely. Juliet's face fell and Alex grimaced.

"Hey I have an idea!" Max said suddenly.

"No one wants to hear your ideas Max!" Alex yelled. Mason nudged with his nose in a comforting manner and for a moment Alex's expression changed to longing. She patted his head affectionately before pacing again.

"Normally I would agree, but this idea is actually good!" Max replied. I quietly closed the book of forbidden spells as I read the last curse about sacrificial slugs.

"Well Max, let's hear it." I said quietly.

"Well, if a vampires venom is what caused this whole thing, why don't we just suck the venom back out?" Max finished proudly. It was quiet for a minute before the idea sank in.

"It's too late Max," began Juliet, "one, the venom has already spread throughout Mason's body. Two, none of us are vampires anymore." Another silence followed. Alex sank to the couch in despair while Max tried to think of another idea.

It killed me to see Alex like this, it was almost better when she was only heartbroken by Mason. Now she is heart broken because the only way they can be together is if she wants to keep him as a glorified puppy. This made me even more thankful for Juliet. I can't imagine loving someone and having them right next you, yet still unable to really have them.

"Look Alex, we've got to regroup. The forbidden book of spells is out, but in the entire wizarding universe there has got to be something. A spell, potion, or anything that can help us. Juliet and I are going to go the Wizard Library to look for more spell books. You stay here with Mason and try to rest for awhile. We'll be back in a little bit." I finished.

I grabbed Juliet's hand and walked over to the wizarding portal. Alex barely glanced up at me after I had told her the plan. She sat on the couch with Mason's wolf head in her lap and continued petting him. Max sat on the chair looking confused as to what he could do.

I said a quick and silent prayer before Juliet and I stepped through the window and into the wizarding world. And I hoped beyond hope that after this day everything could go back to the way it was.

(Alex's POV)

Sleep had come easily to Max and Mason. Max, like me, had been up all day helping Justin get Juliet back to normal. Mason had been wandering a forest for the past two days so I would expect him to be tired. Even I'm exhausted but I find it hard to sleep when the love of my life is a wolf.

Mason stayed up with me for awhile before slowly dozing off with his head in my lap. Even my parents had gone to sleep now that it was approaching ten PM. Justin and Juliet had been gone for a little over an hour. As a last ditch effort to fall asleep I grabbed a book of fairy tales off the shelf that my Dad used to read me when I was younger. They are different fairy tales then Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty but they all have the same ending; happily ever after.

It had to have least been a decade since I'd heard any of the stories. I sat back on the couch next to Mason without waking him up and flipped to the table of contents. I read through the titles listlessly before pausing on one.

The Wolf and his Princess.

It was too curious to not read. I flipped quietly to the page before reading.

It began with a princess leaving her castle for a walk when she accidently walked into the forbidden forest (stupid idiot, how do you accidently walk into a forest?). She quickly realized her mistake, but by then it was too late to simply turn back the other way. The princess began to panic and called for help. All that came however was a pack of wolves. The wolves surrounded her and slowly and suspensefully closed in around her. Instead of crying the Princess decided to hold her head up high and die a noble death (you go girl!). One of the wolves noticed her bravery and was intrigued by it. Suddenly, on an urge he jumped in front of her to protect her from his pack. The rest of the wolves saw how the wolf felt about the princess and scattered away. The wolf led the Princess back to the beginning of the woods where her castle lay. As he began to leave the Princess stopped him. She said, "No one has ever risked their own life for me! I forever am in your debt! If only you could be human so you would never have to leave me!" The wolf was able to understand her words, and hung his head in despair at the thought of having to leave this brave princess. But the princess had an idea, for she lived in an enchanted kingdom and was blessed with magic. "I'll give all my magic away so that you can be turned into a man!" Declared the Princess. And so it was, she sacrificed her magical powers so she could be with the wolf who was now a man. And the man and princess lived happily ever after.

I closed the fairy tale book in disgust. Give up your powers so she could be with some raggedy old wolf she didn't even know? You've got to be kidding me. Now I know why I stopped reading those stupid stories.

I jumped at the sound of Mason's snores. He was stretched out on the couch on his side. His tail quivered every time he let out a quiet snore. Even in wolf form he's adorable. If only he were human, so I could hear that adorable accent, see that adorable smile, hear his adorable laugh, feel his touch, if only…...Oh. My. Gosh.

No, it couldn't be that simple.

Or could it be?

Alex! You're losing it! It's a stupid fairytale!

But what if it works?

But what if it doesn't?

My head feels like a war zone. One side is desperate to get Mason back and would do anything, including give up my wizarding powers. The other is determined to win the tournament against my brothers and be the family wizard. The first side argues that I can live without powers, but can I live without my one true love? The second side argues that I can live without this boy that I've only known two months, but can I give up the lifestyle I've had for the last sixteen years?

I look over again and I see Mason snore. And I think to the future we could have. We could get married, we could travel the world, we could have kids, we could grow old together, we could drop water balloons on other residents in the retirement home, and we could die and spend eternity together in the after life. We could do anything, because we'd be together.

I glance at the table and I see my wand. I remember all the wild adventures I've had with magic. I remember buying a pet dragon, riding down a volcano, going to space, making a rock band, and so much more. I remember the power I feel when I create something or fix something with magic. I remember the feeling when I won the tournament against Justin after we had made our parents forget who we were. I remember feeling power beyond imagination.

I look between my wand and the sleeping wolf Mason as I make my decision.

I know what I have to do. I just hope no one will be hurt in the process.
