I was his sister. I didn't even consider it as a possibility before, but the second he said it; I felt it. A sense of safety; familiarity overwhelming me completely. He was my blood. I could sense it perfectly.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK6aATF89L
All my life, I had spent isolated. I was different from the others; an outsider. My mother was often reserved and difficult to talk to. At these times I yearned for a real family: a father, siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins. But I had none.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8nLilTHMB
Or so, I thought.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3sDndUt3K
This was ridiculous. There was no way I had a brother my mother had never told me about. If it was something this important, I would've known.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLawN6LOh65
The bell rang a second time, interrupting my thoughts.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e5QoP8g0d
"You're a liar," I hissed, shoving him away with all my strength. He stumbled back and grabbed onto the table end with fast reflex.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjwsAyzYTc
"Wait, Weslyn," he called. I found myself freeze, despite how much I wanted to defy him. "I will protect you from others if you stay but if you leave now, that's the end of our family tie. I will never defend you from danger, even when you need it the most."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpJ6U1TthU
I stared at him for a minute, strangely captivated and then, snapped out of my trance.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBLrNCPUjV
"I don't need protection," I practically growled. "There's nothing endangering me."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LNGZquVVH
"Ah, but there is," Mr Grayson objected. Rolling my eyes, I stepped out of the room. "But you'll only find out if you know the truth." 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLch6IYDYd
That caught my attention, forcing me to turn around.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrPZNiiAIo
"Tell me," I demanded. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCtttybiLG
"No," he said firmly. "Once you know the truth, so will the threat. You need to give me your word that you'll stay by me and allow yourself to be protected."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpBaUhp4Tt
My whole life was a lie, I knew nothing of my past and I was possibly being stalked by some danger. Letting someone protect me didn't sound risky at all. In fact, if anything it was the opposite. Besides, I might have even gotten answers. What did I have to lose?654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu5B8Cb7yN
"Fine," I answered. "I'll let you defend me, as long as you tell me everything you know."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1zYLr9tiT
"Give me your word."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVswx8AWfIv
"I give you my word, you have the right to protect me," I promised. "Now tell me the truth."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWBZBpldfa
He smiled slightly and shook his head slightly.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yRQdSV1uP
"Calm it, sister," he sounded amused. "This is the first time I'm seeing you in 8 years and you don't even remember me. Maybe we can slow down a bit."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3zVwxUom6
"But-"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bnP4hWZBx
"Time for introductions," he interrupted, grinning. "I'm West Grayson- your brother. What about you, little sister?"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTYFmq5YzW
"I'm Weslyn Grayson," I responded drily. As if he didn't already know that.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk63tsZNPnE
"Now its your turn to ask a question."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWtsh8zcdJ
"What happened to my parents?" I demanded. "How am I related to Gray Valley? Why am I connected to you?"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlAgniJMWy
"Whoa, didn't I just say we were getting to know each other, Wes?" he raised a single brow at me. "Besides, that was a lot more than one question." For the love of Luna...654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29vhzr4npN
"My name is not Wes," I gritted out. "Either tell me what you know, or I'll leave."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJui0u6HNAR
"I'd love to see you try," he smirked. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAw8JXWg8zq
I turned to leave but felt my own body pull me back from moving. No matter how hard I fought the urge to stay, I couldn't step out of the room.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq3dDBJ3Hl
"You see, Wes," he explained. "Us Graysons; we're true to our word... we physically can't act against our promises." I stared at doorway with disbelief.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdcp9kMCsX
"How?"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpMFAQKD9p
"Mysterious, isn't it?" he chuckled. "Actually, when you think about it, it's quite unbelievable."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpsqoSKHEn
"But, how?" I repeated, my eyes wide with shock. "How does it work?"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZQYw87ojl
"You really want to know, don't you?" he asked. I glared up him and he looked back, reflecting the intensity in my eyes. "Then I'll have to tell you."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NXJbmTQ79
"Really?" I couldn't believe he was that easily; I barely even tried. "Just like that?"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvZr4kAO3N
"Just like that," he confirmed. "First of all, Wes, why do you think I teach Lycanthropy at a local high school?"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4QoIjuQsW
"In the name of Luna," I sighed, exasperated. "You're meant to be giving me answered, not more questions."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4x5NtDirec
"Trust me, Weslyn. Think about it. Try to remember. Find the answer to this and you'll automatically get all your answers."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hWmqkeohU
I sank to my knees and squeezed the sides of my head with my palms. Luna, please help me. With that I stretched my memory, thinking of everything I could ever remember.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSL2S8cBZHi
Familiar images flashed by, leaving no trace: deadly silence, tormenting children, lonely nights, endless gloom, insignificant events. And then I saw it...654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd2IG5QJST
The reflection of a beast in the form of a wolf, it's familiar eyes gleaming in the light of the full moon. I knew who it was without apprehension, but it was impossible to accept it. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKshDACZevy
The truth was agonising.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoNawcgZE8
"Werewolves," I murmured. "They don't exist." He smiled slightly.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDNhAZdngq
"Don't pretend you didn't see that memory, Wes."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomqkvTVazQ
"No its not true," I snapped. "There's no such thing as werewolves!"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhAd5K3v68
"Isn't there?"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyaYepkqL9
"For the love of Luna! They don't exist!"654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHVpNLEar7
"Don't lie, Weslyn Grayson," he hissed. "You remember, don't you? Seeing your reflection in the lake..."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe20HlpHZj1
"That's not true!" I yelled. "I'm not a... I can't be a..."654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKAY7HUrvS
"On the contrary, that's exactly what you are," he smirked. 654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkgMWArgQX
No. I couldn't accept that the monster I saw... it couldn't be. It just couldn't.654Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFBYoQwpAf
"Weslyn Grayson, you are a Werewolf."
