"Mr Moonstone, you are late." A man stood with his arms crossed over his chest, reading some sort of list with his gaze. 844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aakCkaIpu
His hair was dark; almost black and fell in messy curls. And unlike most history teachers, he wasn't particularly old. He seemed to be in about in his late twenties and looked nothing like a regular teacher. 844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LQQeeIL4l
"I will not let this go. Stay after class to organise detention."844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0N9SjIaMI
He glanced up from the paperwork on his table and my eyes widened with shock. It was his eyes. They were the colour of raging storm clouds and made an icy shiver run through my spine.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47akJ0jVmf
"And who are you?"844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLg35jPC6l
It took me a second to realise that he was addressing me. Even when I did, I found that I couldn't reply. My whole body was filled with unjustifiable fear and my voice had disappeared.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqmhiMLiXG
One of the students snickered and I spotted the other boy from the bus, Bryan, smirking at me. I remembered exactly what Liam had said about him...844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYIQI6IjO3
"You deserved that," he sniggered loudly.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQxzanfQMi
"Mr Mitchell, shut up," Mr Grayson roared. "Mr Moonstone, who is this little girl?" 844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLyriqKy3I
Little? What was it with people at Gray Valley calling me little? I wasn't even that small.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgYLxF92J1
"This is Weslyn Grayson, Mr Grayson," Liam filled in for me.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYODBksdx8E
This was Mr Grayson? His eyes narrowed at me and his mouth was set in a straight line. I subconsciously felt myself mirror his expression. 844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSSw3UdAYH
There was something about him... Painful... I tried to recall where I recognised him from, only for intense force to bury itself into my head from both temples. My teeth bit down on my bottom lip to suppress the yelp that was threatening to surface.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvrSZ3jmc1
"I'm going to ask you to stay after class, as well, Miss Grayson," he gritted out. Even in the midst of extreme anguish, I couldn't help but notice how angry he sounded. "Now both of you sit down." 844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UzGjnSDtK
The second he turned away to write on the board, the pain evaporated, perplexing more than I could manage.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6fRjqTJvH
"Is he like that... all the time?" I asked, my voice still shaky from the aftermath of the pressure on my skull. 844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWulvVwefN
Even my usually flawless vision was hazy. I slipped into a desk in the last row after Liam and dropped my head on the table.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPfArXdDsY
"More or less," he retorted. "But we should probably shut up. He has the better hearing then most people think."844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2V1aOZHkp8
"Thank you for complimenting my hearing, Mr Moonstone." My mouth fell open. My Grayson was all the way on the other side of the classroom and yet he heard every word we said.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRhn91TtAs
"See?" he mouthed.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLRECRzaAq
"For the love of Luna..." I whispered.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1sHCXveyo
"Excellent, Miss." I looked up to meet the gray eyes, unsure whether or not he was talking yo me. "Yes, you, Miss Grayson. You knew our discussion topic even though you're new and arrived late. Would you like to repeat what you said for the rest of the idiots who don't pay attention in my class?"844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2nfU5QpZs
"For the love of Luna?" I repeated uncertainly.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFN9wI6lRM
"And do you by any chance know who this infamous Luna is?"844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckWHTSfGqv
"Some kind of celestial being?" I took a guess. His eyebrows shot up and a low growl escaped his mouth. "I think..." I trailed off. 844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lR1fT8UIJ
Like I had told Liam, before, I had no idea where my catch phrase came from; only that my mother had often used it.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSS6E27EBj
"The Angel of the full-moon," Liam interrupted from beside me. I shot him a grateful smile. "She was cursed by the wolf guardian and became part wolf; the original lycanthrope."844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfheLCuQNM
"Well, except for the fact that I asked Miss Grayson and you answered for her, thank you, Mr Moonstone. At least now I know someone pays attention to Mythology," his voice loudened. "As for the rest of you morons, why aren't you taking notes?"844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCOZKGISM9
A hush went through the class, as the students leant over their books to make notes.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjq6zY1b77p
"Thanks," I told Liam. "How did you know that?"844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mM7jeOOAf
"It's like Mr Grayson said," he responded. "I was brought up with the local legends."844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRC9FSwOwJS
"But I don't get it. Why-" The school bell rang cutting me off and dismissing the class. Why was Gray Valley so into werewolves?844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QeWDLT2sZ
He stood up and glanced at me. "We have to go second lesson, what subject do you have?"844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXKHL4PClD
"Senior Latin," I frowned. "In Room 15."844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavEIBHD8Pv
"Room 15 is just across the corridor. I've got Senior Hebrew, so I'll see you later, yeah?"844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFhH9BxV0L
"Er... yeah."844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCsWiSY1XV
He gave me one last smile and left the room, leaving me alone. By Luna. This school was getting worse by the second. Why did I have to move to Gray Valley in the first place? Grabbing my exercise book off the table, I made my way outside.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknlxb7a84L
"Where do you think your going?" Mr Grayson's voice was full of authority as he stepped in front of me, blocking the doorway. "I thought I told you to stay after class."844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdhNDWDCfg
"You let Liam go," I pointed out. "Besides, I have second lesson, Mr Grayson."844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLk4mncBDg
I ducked under his arm but he clasped his fingers around my wrist, forcing me to stop. The contact made a prickling sensation creep up my spine and I bit my lip.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWZ5ZU6qVN
I sensed it. I sensed it from the very beginning. The rush of emotions I felt at his touch made it obvious.844Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8pxrKZ2NT
