"A Gray Wolf, actually." His voice was full of amusement. "I am one, too."574Please respect copyright.PENANAeSJydjQVpO
"So that's why you teach..." I trailed off.574Please respect copyright.PENANAfzG4EIADMA
"Smarter than I thought you were," he commented lazily, closing his eyelids. "At a matter of fact..." My mind registered his tone and within seconds, I was filled with rage.574Please respect copyright.PENANAylbVllrNY9
"YOU THINK THAT THIS IS FUNNY?!" I screamed. His eyes snapped open at the volume of my voice, as the school bell rang in the distance.574Please respect copyright.PENANAaGJKytNLfz
"Whoa, Wes," he said. "I think you should calm down."574Please respect copyright.PENANAidVW9TeBkY
"I don't care what you think. Don't tell me what to do," I snapped and spun around towards the door. "And my name is not Wes," I added, walking out if the room. 574Please respect copyright.PENANARLzjFjzx48
Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted him staring at me, drop-jawed.574Please respect copyright.PENANAHzYAqskJc6
I stormed down the corridor, confused as to why all the rooms were empty. Grabbing my timetable, I checked what lesson I had. Of course. It was lunch.574Please respect copyright.PENANAUatV10Cp7L
And then a sharp blow exploded at my temple, weakening my stance. I sunk to my knees squeezing the sides of my head. Luna, please save me.574Please respect copyright.PENANAtk8troLkvB
I couldn't bare it anymore... It was getting worse by the second.574Please respect copyright.PENANAfCHzbJ2lcA
I just wanted it all to end.574Please respect copyright.PENANAFolQmiwIkj
Heaving myself off the floor, I staggered forward. My vision blurred and the world spun around me. I felt my legs weaken and fell forward.574Please respect copyright.PENANAMApDOZsUDT
I braced myself, awaiting the impact of crashing to the ground.574Please respect copyright.PENANAfA7XLpaS3j
Only, it never came.574Please respect copyright.PENANAMALsnVhvoS
"We have got to stop meeting like this," a voice, Liam's, said. I was suddenly aware that his arms were around my waist.574Please respect copyright.PENANA1u8g0uNGTW
"Err..." A jolt of electricity seemed to buzz through my veins, flooding my entire body. He smiled ever so slightly and scooped me up effortlessly.574Please respect copyright.PENANAK4YSQvadp1
"What's wrong, Weslyn?"574Please respect copyright.PENANADHb7i342Fn
"I... dizzy... can't see," I murmured incoherently.574Please respect copyright.PENANA1LsOHpQafK
"Have you eaten yet?"574Please respect copyright.PENANAiBXRnIxkhW
"No... I..."574Please respect copyright.PENANAAihsJp5YYQ
"That explains it."574Please respect copyright.PENANAxKq3AYAlUx
"Explains, what?"574Please respect copyright.PENANA5SfrqnAbml
"Why you are dazed," he replied. "I'll take you to the cafeteria. Come on." Without thinking, he curled his fingers around my wrist and lead me to the corridor.574Please respect copyright.PENANAAvEAd8cOBG
The moment I stepped into the cafeteria after Liam, a loud voice echoed through the area.574Please respect copyright.PENANACdUWJcetxa
"Will!" a guy yelled. I scanned the room, searching for the owner of the voice. I soon found him, a dark-skinned guy racing in my direction. Within seconds, he was with Liam suffocating in his embrace. "William Moonstone, I have missed you so much." Liam laughed in response and pulled away from him. As I caught sight of his face, I knew there was something unusual about his appearance. I just couldn't quite place it.574Please respect copyright.PENANADOLXmQezdW
"So have I, Martyn." His face flushed slightly, as everyone was staring at us. "But I'm not making a scene am I?"574Please respect copyright.PENANAJ34BGrBZmx
"Of course not, you're Will," the guy, Martyn stated. "Will Moonstone does not like drawing attention to himself.574Please respect copyright.PENANAYWVoVrwymb
"Umm... Yeah," Liam dismissed and then looked at me. "So, Weslyn, this is my best friend Martyn Grant. Marty, this is Weslyn."574Please respect copyright.PENANAj2sc4yVk2u
"Weslyn Grayson?"574Please respect copyright.PENANAQuuxXBXVSH
"I'm under the impression that people know me better than I do."574Please respect copyright.PENANA5kL2G6PSSe
"Its famous around here, your name-last name is," he responded. "Are you sitting with us today, Weslyn?" I gave Liam a dazed look and nodded slightly.574Please respect copyright.PENANAKxDBHUQWTC
"Yeah, why not?" I answered.574Please respect copyright.PENANANqSs1vPHYn
"I'll get your food for you," Liam told me.574Please respect copyright.PENANAKLzSAgBDnH
"You don't have to-"574Please respect copyright.PENANAlLoHdIoUjy
"Don't be ridiculous," he said. "You're practically going to pass out. Go sit down with Martyn and rest."574Please respect copyright.PENANABVtHqzpkjj
I followed Martyn to a small dull table and sat down. 574Please respect copyright.PENANAKHX0q61jFU
I glanced at him and at once realised what was so unusual about his features. Although his skin was deep brown and hair black like every other African boy, his eyes were gray in colour. Beautiful, metallic gray.574Please respect copyright.PENANAYgjZZSBi9H
"Aww... thanks, Weslyn. Though, I must admit, I've gotten that a lot."574Please respect copyright.PENANArOcoMOEumm
"You heard that?" I questioned with disbelief. "About your eyes?"574Please respect copyright.PENANA0LhMNRyWIk
"Of course I did," he grinned. "How are you finding Gray Valley?"574Please respect copyright.PENANA7d9zdYtmVv
"Can I ask you a question?" I asked. He shrugged in response and watched me expectantly. "What are the local legends?"574Please respect copyright.PENANAFKKW5qwO7p
"There are a lot of myths in Gray Valley and it has been told for almost a millennium, passed down through many generations..." he trailed off. "A lot of them are about Werewolves, which is why Lycanthropy is a mandatory lesson at our school; it makes up our history. It is said that Gray Valley was entirely inhabited by Werewolves for centuries before human settlement. The Werewolves were supposedly descended from the full-moon goddess, Luna, who was cursed by the wolf guardian and became the very first lycanthrope in the world."574Please respect copyright.PENANA6rwrXc5Lgg
"Why Werewolves, though? The myths could as easily have been about any other supernatural creature. It could have been Vampires-"574Please respect copyright.PENANAajFswhNfHl
"Vampires don't exist, Weslyn," Martyn chuckled.574Please respect copyright.PENANA8Zsg2ZftYp
"Obviously, they don't. But neither do Werewolves," I rolled my eyes.574Please respect copyright.PENANAxebBosKD5L
"Not according to every other citizen of Gray Valley."574Please respect copyright.PENANAe9rfif6dNk
"By Luna... You're kidding me, right?" I demanded. The expression on his face showed that he was serious. "Wait, so you believe in Werewolves?574Please respect copyright.PENANAfvd7lvzCQi
"Yeah, I do." His answer was so abrupt, I didn't know how to reply574Please respect copyright.PENANAeML5Dzj0kW
"But-"574Please respect copyright.PENANALYGLJJzqiA
"When you grow up with frequently unexplained animal attacks and howling noises every full moon, you can't help but believe in it." Animal attacks? Howling? Full moon? My uncertainty dissolved, as my mind began to consider the possibility of the existence of Werewolves.574Please respect copyright.PENANA6V91dedrPJ
And then it occurred to me...574Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7FMNUrmVv
If West Grayson wasn't lying when he said that Werewolves existed, there was a minor chance that maybe he was being truthful when he told me of Gray Wolves. Could there be a chance that everything he said was real?574Please respect copyright.PENANAi0dhMT65Wk
Was there a possibility that I was the beast I saw in my memories?
