"YOU'RE AWAKE." I didn't know what to expect from him, now that he was awake. If what Anna had said was true and Blayze would be in love with me... Would he be different from before?copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RbtuywNo9
"Weslyn," he murmured, reaching up to wrap his arms around me.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOfuN62xkw
"Blayze." He pulled away from me, his eyes fixed on mine.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡofCTErj3RO
I had never looked at his eyes closely... But now that he was so close, it was impossible not to stare.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGYS19lxQg
I thought his eyes were deep brown but I was wrong. Maybe they looked brown from afar... Up close, I could see that the depth in his eyes weren't from the colour, brown.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oJ8tt8BgE
His eyes were partly gray.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7cdMeZSBw
The sudden realisation made me snap out of my trance and return my attention to the present.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUFEFPfw4u
"What's wrong?" he asked.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVKh3wc7gB
"Were your eyes like that before?"copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5t5ymbuiFS
"What?"copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57Ub5x5FcJ
"Your eyes," I repeated. "They're gray around the edges, brown from the centre... But also black."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PI30DXl1V
"Unusual, isn't it?"copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5hMXsDfeT
"Unusual doesn't start to describe it."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87aql4bkzB
It was far more than unusual. Being a Brown Wolf with gray eyes was impossible. After the Brown Wolf transformation, their hair and eyes, almost instantly become brown. But Blayze's eyes were still gray.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWFF91sBY4
"Yeah..." he trailed off, staring . "I feel like there's something I can't remember."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQdoXHVbff
"What?" I wasn't used to hearing that from someone else.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡRatm1EJ56D
"As in, I came to this place, the Luna Pack House... And I feel like I came here to say something important, but now I can't seem to remember what it was."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCf2RBwmOW
I had almost forgot the four dreaded words that he had said before collapsingcopyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡffqKgzt8tX
"W-Weslyn you're in d-danger."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHVN9DpzVz
He was right. He had come with something important to say... He had come with a warning.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1QT4689pY
"You came to warn me, saying I was in danger."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjAV2jca9J
His eyes widened at my words, as he seemed to recall what had happened before.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡly5XMWXeV7
"You are in danger," he replied grimly. "Lucian Bronze and those around him are trying to gain power over the Luna Pack... And the only way to do that, is by overthrowing you."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXeU0jVQH1
"And how would they do that?"copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqHMly2t3k
"I told you about Lucian, didn't I? I told you about the agreement he made, so he could increase in power and build up an army of Brown Wolves..."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnIMLN26QJ
"Yeah, you did."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG3vQGiGKw
"That army was made to defeat you."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Vs4XhlFqc
"But..." I stared at him in disbelief. "Most of the Luna Pack and everyone else thought I was dead. How did he know?"copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTh9TOI86B
"How else?" Blayze asked. "Someone told him, Weslyn."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NwoOY8Wlt
"Who would do something like that?" I believed that my pack was loyal to me; that they would never betray me.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuhCQoM48o
"The Grants," he told me. What? I couldn't believe what I was hearing.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡlls7a7I0xQ
"You don't mean Martyn, do you?"copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQGhVMNcWa
"I don't know about him," Blayze answered. "I've never seen him with Lucian before... But I do know, for sure, that his sister, Maryanne and their father can't be trusted."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFDXi8nKL5
I should've known. Who else would have readily betrayed me? The two of them were the only ones who hadn't entirely accepted me as their Alpha.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiIxAWZcFI
"But I thought they hated Brown Wolves." I didn't know if it was true, but it definitely seemed like it.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQEbQf6fWY
"Maybe they do; maybe they don't," he said. "What matters is that they hate you the most and they would do anything to get rid of you."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBgCVZIExJ
I was silent, as I thought of Martyn's words from before.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn8cEDQ7FG
"Brown Wolves have a shorter life span. Around 40 years of age; maybe even late 30s... They become ill. They physically weaken and also gradually lose there sanity. Often the ill Werewolf would be put down soon afterwards..."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNnol9O8Lr
"Wait a minute, doesn't Lucian have the Brown Wolf illness?"copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EpZ5nX119
If Lucian was inflicted with the illness, there was no way he would be able to lead a pack, let alone fight me.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZtCUlyIBQ
"He's been cured."copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡaig7yEEE8l
Cured? I almost started to disagree, when I remembered something. It was so important; I couldn't believe it hadn't crossed my mind.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uabOcgOxP
Mary had left for years on end, just to find a cure for the Brown Wolf illness. And when I had asked her whether she had found it, she had avoided answering me... There was no other explanation for it.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVqThBr22L
She had cured Lucian Bronze.copyright protection354ＰＥＮＡＮＡP652R9a1xK
