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.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILqazzoMi2
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.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49ZLUd9jTU
Or so, I thought.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbYrZiwIvD
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.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxdrtLSGW5
The bell rang a second time, interrupting my thoughts.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iNnl2Kk06
"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.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HSjNQhYd7
"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."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf81gJ1WsSF
I stared at him for a minute, strangely captivated and then, snapped out of my trance.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmDikOmQZK
"I don't need protection," I practically growled. "There's nothing endangering me."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllOqRL93F9
"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." 718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3ohwjTCyH
That caught my attention, forcing me to turn around.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaR4lk8HY0I
"Tell me," I demanded. 718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MvNsquDFM
"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."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUOxKLUWb0
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?718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOTI9rZ03l
"Fine," I answered. "I'll let you defend me, as long as you tell me everything you know."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9OgBgHwD0
"Give me your word."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc6Eb7z21K
"I give you my word, you have the right to protect me," I promised. "Now tell me the truth."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjWd1PzMlB
He smiled slightly and shook his head slightly.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn79XkYJuH
"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."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4XL6VstGX
"But-"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvZJuHhH1r
"Time for introductions," he interrupted, grinning. "I'm West Grayson- your brother. What about you, little sister?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCmIAEsa8b
"I'm Weslyn Grayson," I responded drily. As if he didn't already know that.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRQyyFOcoi
"Now its your turn to ask a question."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Snt12QtfH
"What happened to my parents?" I demanded. "How am I related to Gray Valley? Why am I connected to you?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WB7SW8CCb
"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...718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RVcsz6gXx
"My name is not Wes," I gritted out. "Either tell me what you know, or I'll leave."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMZFrZ8hBR
"I'd love to see you try," he smirked. 718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMnwTTroqq
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.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8IsO2cTgj
"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.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgqMZNgXSS
"How?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla45ShnqVx
"Mysterious, isn't it?" he chuckled. "Actually, when you think about it, it's quite unbelievable."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wp7iu1lBE
"But, how?" I repeated, my eyes wide with shock. "How does it work?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxHSMyoefo
"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."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWjMhwO3gh
"Really?" I couldn't believe he was that easily; I barely even tried. "Just like that?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WZVG6VfXp
"Just like that," he confirmed. "First of all, Wes, why do you think I teach Lycanthropy at a local high school?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ0Y25cxGB
"In the name of Luna," I sighed, exasperated. "You're meant to be giving me answered, not more questions."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32jU4ocHAz
"Trust me, Weslyn. Think about it. Try to remember. Find the answer to this and you'll automatically get all your answers."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIioA5PPDG
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.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyWFHIABtv
Familiar images flashed by, leaving no trace: deadly silence, tormenting children, lonely nights, endless gloom, insignificant events. And then I saw it...718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1iI7HFmAm
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. 718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gdz3Z33JU
The truth was agonising.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSb735xdqe
"Werewolves," I murmured. "They don't exist." He smiled slightly.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA2AT8FGqF
"Don't pretend you didn't see that memory, Wes."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXa8fpfVM4e
"No its not true," I snapped. "There's no such thing as werewolves!"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GXrP7bbj2
"Isn't there?"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBO4GRxcP9
"For the love of Luna! They don't exist!"718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtBtJblRnn
"Don't lie, Weslyn Grayson," he hissed. "You remember, don't you? Seeing your reflection in the lake..."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw7kAmEkUE
"That's not true!" I yelled. "I'm not a... I can't be a..."718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQATUtiLOCc
"On the contrary, that's exactly what you are," he smirked. 718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96g63Rl5Hv
No. I couldn't accept that the monster I saw... it couldn't be. It just couldn't.718Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHNYSw1Bmk
"Weslyn Grayson, you are a Werewolf."
