I had not meant to Kill Julian. It had been a accident. He kept pushing me over and over
Again until I snapped. I only shoved Him.
He tripped over the coffee table and landed
On the floor, Hard. His head had been busted
Opened. I watched as Life drained from his Light Blue eyes. That had been the night that
I discovered that I had not been Human.
I was In Fact, a Werewolf. The Next morning
After Julian's body was discovered by my little cousin Aubrey, I received a phone call
From Julian's mother Layla. I held the house
Phone up to my right ear as I said, "Hello?"
"Why did you kill my son, Daniel?" Layla's Voice had not been one of Anger. It had been
One of complete sorrow. Silence stretched
Before I replied. "I didn't Intend to kill Him.
I discovered that he'd been beating on my Little cousin Aubrey. I drove to his house
Intending to warn him against hurting Aubrey
Again. But he kept pushing me over and over again Until I shoved him. He tripped over the
Coffee Table, which resulted In him falling on
The floor. Hitting his head, hard enough to bust It open." I said Into the Phone. For a moment, the silence stretched until....Click!
Layla hung up the phone. I sat the house phone back on the Kitchen Table. I sighed before walking Into the Living Room. I sat down on the Light Grey, Leather Couch.
I could hear Aubrey's Light Blue Sudan pull Into the driveway. I knew that once she discovered Julian's body, that she'd come to
My house. To thank me or to confront me
I had not been sure. Because some of the time, If someone attempts to help someone
Who'd been abused or are currently being
Abused. They would sometimes lash out
Because the Victims would believe that they
Would not be able to find anyone better.
The front door Swung opened. "Daniel, are you In the Living Room?" Aubrey asked. "Yeah" I replied. Aubrey walked Into the Living Room. I already began to notice, the difference In Aubrey. Her Hazel eyes seemed
To Sparkle with Happiness and Relief. Her medium Length Light brown hair was tied
Up Into a Ponytail. Which, now that I thought
About It. She'd never done that while she
Was with Julian. She stood up straighter.
Her height reaching Five-Foot-six, she wore a Bright Pink Tank-top, revealing her Six-pack abs. She wore Ripped Blue Jeans. Her nose
Had been short, straight as a arrow and pointy. She had plenty of muscle on her arms. She had been Caucasian. She had
Been around twenty years old. Her shoulders were wide. I stood up from the couch as I waited for her to speak, for a single minute
There had been silence until she rushed to
Hug me. "Thank You! Thank You!" Aubrey Choked out. I gently wrapped my muscular arms around her. After a while, Aubrey Calmed down enough to sit beside me on the couch. "How bad was the abuse before I discovered It?" I asked Aubrey, my tone soft.
Aubrey did not say a single word. That alone
Tells me that he didn't Just Physically abuse
Her, he did something...else. something that
She does not want me to know about.
"Aubrey....what other abuse did he put you through?" I asked. She bit her Bottom Lip as
Her eyes Welled up with fresh-tears. "He would tell me that I was useless and that no one else would have me, he would continually tell me that My Family wanted nothing to do with me...and for a while, I believed him. A-And he tried to-" she trailed off. Blood drained from my Face. "H-He-"
"H-He tried to but...our son stopped him"
"You and Julian have a son...? And how did he stop Julian?" I asked. "Kyle managed to stop Julian because he had been In the bedroom at the time, Julian did not want our son to see him assault me...so, ever since that day. I had Kyle with me, everywhere that
I went. And the reason that I didn't tell anyone
About Kyle was because of Julian's manipulation..." Aubrey whispered. Blood
Returned to my face as I asked, "Last night
I was at Julian's home, but I did not see Kyle"
Tears began to slowly roll down Aubrey's cheeks. "T-That's because Kyle Is dead"
"What happened?" I asked, My Voice cracking. Even If Kyle had not been a cousin
A child dying Is a terrible thing. "H-He was killed during a house robbery gone wrong"
"Were you there, at that time?" Aubrey nodded. "I was and I gave the descriptions
To the police" Aubrey told me. For that second. My Eyes Flickered from Light Brown
To a Wolf-ish Red. Aubrey must have noticed
The change In my eyes because she scooted
Away, slightly. "What did he or she look like?"
"O-One had been a man with short black hair and Light Blue eyes. He stood about Six-Foot-One, he had been Caucasian. He wore a Black short-Sleeved T-shirt that hugged his muscular frame. He wore Light Blue Jeans
He looked to be around Twenty-five years old
And his Jaw was Chiseled. His nose had been Long and straight, and pointy. His Shoulders Were broad. His right cheek had
What looked to be a knife scar. The other one had been a woman with Medium Length Black hair and Light brown eyes. She stood about Five-Foot-six. She wore a Black short-Sleeved T-shirt that hugged her lean and slender Frame. She wore Ripped Blue Jeans
She had dark skin. She looked to be around Twenty-one years old. Her Nose was medium Length and curved to the right.
Her shoulders were wide..." I had memorized
Those descriptions Inside my mind before my eyes flickered back to Light brown.
Aubrey scooted closer to me, Once more.
"Daniel....are you planning on going after them?" She asked me. I would be lying to
Her, If I said no. As such, I chose honesty.
"I am..They deserve to die for killing a child"
"Daniel...why are you talking like that? You
Killed Julian accidentally...but here, You're
Talking about taking two lives Purposely..."
Before that day, I'd never spoken like that
Before. Even If the man or woman did deserve to die. I began to wonder If the Beast Inside of me was Influencing me...In some way or form. "Something Might be wrong with me..." I whispered as I stood up from the couch. Aubrey stood up as well. "I think that I'm going to go, so you can get some rest"
"It's still daylight out...what Time Is It?" I asked, Aubrey looked down at her right wrist
Where her watch Is. "Eleven O'clock In the morning" Aubrey replied as her eyes Flickered back Up to meet Daniel's.
"It's way to early for me to go to sleep"
"You can try, Please? For me?" I sighed as
I nodded. I didn't sleep much, last night after
Accidentally killing Julian. I had been feeling
Pretty exhausted. A grin Played Upon Aubrey's Lips. "Thank you!" I chuckled as I walked down the hallway toward my bedroom. I managed to sleep, a total of two
Hours before...a Nightmare found me. I had been running through the Springville woods
On all fours. The snow on the ground had
Been catching my footprints or, I shall say
Paw prints. I had been following the scent of
Blood. It was leading me toward the exit of the woods. Upon reaching the exit of the woods. I stopped In my tracks. My Wolf-ish Red eyes widen as standing In front of me
Was me....the fur was as white as snow.
Its Wolf-ish Red eyes were locked on mine.
It stood about Six-Foot-One. It had plenty of muscle. It's Snout was Long, the nose was black. It was snarling at me. Baring It's Long, sharp white Canines. Its Long, sharp black claws was digging Into the snow as It was
On all fours. "Find the ones responsible for the young one's death! And Tear them apart!"
I sat upright, Sweat was Pouring down from
My forehead to my cheeks. That had been the first time that I heard my wolf speak to me
And It had been far from the last.
