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.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGuBWUgsHT
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.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6RqvHVD1G
Or so, I thought.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGG1KUsYlI
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.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28FXCaQ7CP
The bell rang a second time, interrupting my thoughts.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpduKdH4w8
"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.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvXiPulvvp
"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."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhqRC6wUfG
I stared at him for a minute, strangely captivated and then, snapped out of my trance.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4VSiQf5Ws
"I don't need protection," I practically growled. "There's nothing endangering me."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTS336RoJl
"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." 825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡte0FQMzrkG
That caught my attention, forcing me to turn around.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLHCpymlve
"Tell me," I demanded. 825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97N5x4WnXg
"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."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI8KrLIFPA
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?825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcNPQeLUqJ
"Fine," I answered. "I'll let you defend me, as long as you tell me everything you know."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1ZQS4MbhV
"Give me your word."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIHeafu5og
"I give you my word, you have the right to protect me," I promised. "Now tell me the truth."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCQM6I34ca
He smiled slightly and shook his head slightly.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqD2rGjryI
"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."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYbGnd0BzP
"But-"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0iLcYu9fN
"Time for introductions," he interrupted, grinning. "I'm West Grayson- your brother. What about you, little sister?"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6wIGcDGbJ
"I'm Weslyn Grayson," I responded drily. As if he didn't already know that.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bvbi158Yv
"Now its your turn to ask a question."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNA1DT74cnw
"What happened to my parents?" I demanded. "How am I related to Gray Valley? Why am I connected to you?"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir2xyEr6tr
"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...825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dlF8oZtPv
"My name is not Wes," I gritted out. "Either tell me what you know, or I'll leave."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdp9JS5AjY
"I'd love to see you try," he smirked. 825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7F2g6xM9u
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.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lOsDODkw1
"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.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS28wKA6lP
"How?"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSHuZbyYVt
"Mysterious, isn't it?" he chuckled. "Actually, when you think about it, it's quite unbelievable."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIronytxMQZ
"But, how?" I repeated, my eyes wide with shock. "How does it work?"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ba7qVuRxD
"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."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw9ZEkDf9k
"Really?" I couldn't believe he was that easily; I barely even tried. "Just like that?"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuh1Y6qXPq
"Just like that," he confirmed. "First of all, Wes, why do you think I teach Lycanthropy at a local high school?"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIY0TImEyZW
"In the name of Luna," I sighed, exasperated. "You're meant to be giving me answered, not more questions."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMiPgVXPyq
"Trust me, Weslyn. Think about it. Try to remember. Find the answer to this and you'll automatically get all your answers."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UstWcgsxX
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.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV2Lrv5lXo
Familiar images flashed by, leaving no trace: deadly silence, tormenting children, lonely nights, endless gloom, insignificant events. And then I saw it...825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXDbYdK8hP
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. 825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTS84TBVvPh
The truth was agonising.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBvZ0prsnb
"Werewolves," I murmured. "They don't exist." He smiled slightly.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiNPdzPo1N
"Don't pretend you didn't see that memory, Wes."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SRqt8JghS
"No its not true," I snapped. "There's no such thing as werewolves!"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34RBhMr6VX
"Isn't there?"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6M8PWlOp8
"For the love of Luna! They don't exist!"825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFctOVn8F9W
"Don't lie, Weslyn Grayson," he hissed. "You remember, don't you? Seeing your reflection in the lake..."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDFKgzEz14
"That's not true!" I yelled. "I'm not a... I can't be a..."825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDA9xXRwej
"On the contrary, that's exactly what you are," he smirked. 825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm0k5JV9mf
No. I couldn't accept that the monster I saw... it couldn't be. It just couldn't.825Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRcxL4tD82
"Weslyn Grayson, you are a Werewolf."
