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.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLMgt8WMAP
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.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp913hD7m1
Or so, I thought.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTWFoUwxWR
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.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x8ci8yDrF
The bell rang a second time, interrupting my thoughts.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQjno5jvJ1
"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.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVN350xUdR
"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."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ksGWOqfBI
I stared at him for a minute, strangely captivated and then, snapped out of my trance.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCF56C3MofF
"I don't need protection," I practically growled. "There's nothing endangering me."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjeWhFA5oP
"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." 717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Fbzpl4VHr
That caught my attention, forcing me to turn around.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgJHiNfPBc
"Tell me," I demanded. 717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKybUeKj7d6
"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."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoTtyJPlvD
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?717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV70HRVkeg
"Fine," I answered. "I'll let you defend me, as long as you tell me everything you know."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5B7FumCQx
"Give me your word."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3ykiXs8r3
"I give you my word, you have the right to protect me," I promised. "Now tell me the truth."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURf294IzDM
He smiled slightly and shook his head slightly.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw6Dj7BEVD
"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."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUdD9mSQUU
"But-"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtlKuXfqkE
"Time for introductions," he interrupted, grinning. "I'm West Grayson- your brother. What about you, little sister?"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqnmtfVE8m
"I'm Weslyn Grayson," I responded drily. As if he didn't already know that.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalz4UXcvgA
"Now its your turn to ask a question."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXecTXuDfPx
"What happened to my parents?" I demanded. "How am I related to Gray Valley? Why am I connected to you?"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS7U70Mi5K
"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...717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZqkz7M1wM
"My name is not Wes," I gritted out. "Either tell me what you know, or I'll leave."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZG5UxLVcmB
"I'd love to see you try," he smirked. 717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWH2ROeJjvA
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.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGQVyETwrU
"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.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OT6a0Cqch
"How?"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGs4Ec1Wgk
"Mysterious, isn't it?" he chuckled. "Actually, when you think about it, it's quite unbelievable."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEPlhnuS9h
"But, how?" I repeated, my eyes wide with shock. "How does it work?"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TVwi63zYA
"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."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVwF3B0GaH
"Really?" I couldn't believe he was that easily; I barely even tried. "Just like that?"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAjuNEHHWc
"Just like that," he confirmed. "First of all, Wes, why do you think I teach Lycanthropy at a local high school?"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRXWo5Sya3
"In the name of Luna," I sighed, exasperated. "You're meant to be giving me answered, not more questions."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyROJ5XpGBT
"Trust me, Weslyn. Think about it. Try to remember. Find the answer to this and you'll automatically get all your answers."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZciHwsHSFc
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.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPt1Vvrpxj
Familiar images flashed by, leaving no trace: deadly silence, tormenting children, lonely nights, endless gloom, insignificant events. And then I saw it...717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIhRQdoKxZ
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. 717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkBxvi4XNd
The truth was agonising.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKMe9WF8Yo
"Werewolves," I murmured. "They don't exist." He smiled slightly.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1fDrQfHaQ
"Don't pretend you didn't see that memory, Wes."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxNlsQzXa7
"No its not true," I snapped. "There's no such thing as werewolves!"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD83XSbazGp
"Isn't there?"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar4peBwrDh
"For the love of Luna! They don't exist!"717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6Ys24E77k
"Don't lie, Weslyn Grayson," he hissed. "You remember, don't you? Seeing your reflection in the lake..."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiTXGt2OPD
"That's not true!" I yelled. "I'm not a... I can't be a..."717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfoyzp8mJo
"On the contrary, that's exactly what you are," he smirked. 717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QkpkHKiQk
No. I couldn't accept that the monster I saw... it couldn't be. It just couldn't.717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tteUYVDRU
"Weslyn Grayson, you are a Werewolf."
