Chapter 5 I'm A what?

When I finally broke eye contact I had realized how tightly I was holding onto his shirt. I then began to make out the sound of someone struggling behind me. I looked over my shoulder to see a tall well-built man holding my would-be attacker against the wall by his throat. I began laughing as I realized just what I had thrown at him. Right there in the middle of his forehead was a baby cactus its bristles latching onto his face. Suddenly he growled at me sending shivers through my body. I felt my savior's arms tighten a little as if to reassure me. I hadn't even noticed that he had begun to lead me to another room till the door closed behind us.

We were in an office with a large desk and an even larger collection of books on the back wall. We stood in the room awkwardly as we waited for something. Then I remembered the amulet, I quickly searched myself to see if I had it on me. No luck I must have left it back at home. I did realize however that the cactus had also gotten me, traitor... My head shot up as the tall male from before walked in, he looked very similar to the boy who had saved me. Could they be related? My handsome heroes then motioned for me to sit down. The younger of the two gave a shy and sweet smile "I'm Logan by the way and this is my older brother Danny." he said finally introducing himself after all this time.

Logan then began to frown. I noticed he was looking at my hand "Damn are you okay?" he asked his voice full of concern. I nodded my head as Danny pulled out a first aid kit from his desk. Did people often get hurt around here? My thoughts were cut short as Logan smoothly turned my face so that I was looking at him. I realized it was supposed to be a distraction as I felt something being pulled out of my palm. I winced and naturally pulled my hand back slightly. I then felt a firm and warm grip around my wrist keeping my hand in place. Logan then exhaled quite loudly as if he was acknowledging the fact that he needed to speak up " I need to tell you something, it's very important and I hope you don't freak out after I tell you." he said his voice sounded worried.

~Logan's P.O.V~

I was unnerved there was so much I had to say, and no way to know for a fact how she would react to what I would tell her, or if she would even accept it. When I sighed she looked up at me with her beautiful icy blue eyes that ironically made me melt "I need to tell you something, it's very important and I hope you don't freak out after I tell you." I admitted very worried. She slowly nodded her head.

I knelt in front of her then gently took her hand in mine. I could feel tingles running up my arm "Did you feel that?" I asked hopeful and got a nod as a response. I bit my lip it was now or never so I might as well explain it all to her. I took a deep breath " Eva you're my mate. I know that it's a little creepy that I know your name and you know pretty much nothing about me. I've known about you pretty much my entire life. Also, the reason I say you're my mate is that we're werewolves-" I rambled before she cut me off " Whoa whoa whoa slow down, stop, rewind... I am not a werewolf. Have you been stalking me too?!" she yelled.

I flinched being yelled at by my mate wasn't pleasant. I vigorously shook my head "Just listen to me please... your seventeenth birthday is in two weeks and that is when you will first phase and unlock your abilities. Eva I know it's crazy but the only reason you never knew this about yourself is that you were adopted. Your last name isn't really Miller it's Silverstone. Your birth mother wasn't one of us she was a hunter with a very special gift... she could sense and sometimes even see things before they happened. Her people thought if she could bear a werewolf's child they would have the perfect weapon to hunt us down with, but your mother fell in love with your father.

I took a second to let her take in the information before I continued "Her people soon began to worry that their perfect weapon may turn on them. So the order was given out to terminate the experiment. Your father was very fond of your mother and so he came to my parents to ask them to keep you safe and hidden. I was about two years old at the time, my parents said I never left your side. So my parents protected you for me. Your parents went back to try and keep the hunters off of your trail... Unfortunately, your mother was caught and your father tried his best to save her, but they didn't make it. We thought for sure you would be safe here till one day hunters made their way here. To protect us my parents distracted them while Danny brought you to an orphanage. My parents and many pack members died that day, but you were safe and I've been making sure of it every day since my first shift." When I stopped I watched her carefully not sure how she was going to react.

~Eva's P.O.V~

This had to be some sort of twisted prank right? This kid was just messing with me. I glared at him thinking that perhaps I could outsmart him "Show me proof." my tone was hard and cold. I watched Logan get up and go over to a little wooden box that was placed on the bookshelf, he pulled out a picture of a woman holding a bundle in a little pink blanket. The woman was beautiful and seemed very familiar. The second I touched the picture I felt a strong force pushing me back.

I looked around and saw a man and a woman at the doorstep of the house I was currently in. Another couple answered the door, the woman held a toddler in her arms and the man had his arm around a nine or ten years old. The toddler kept reaching toward the other woman as if she had something he wanted. Their facial expressions changed a lot as they spoke. The woman cried as she handed the man in the house a little bundle. When she turned around I realized the woman looked so much like me. That can't be true I must be seeing things wrong. I then felt the force pushing me again.

I was suddenly back inside the office with Logan and Danny. I stood up I didn't want to believe it. I shook my head vigorously "You're lying!" I screamed and ran out of there as fast as I could. I turned right somehow knowing this would lead me home. I ran through the door and up the stairs only stopping when I saw my dad banging on Tyson's door. He was yelling but his words were slurred. I was shocked dad never drank let alone yelled at Ty "Dad! What are you doing you're scaring him!" I yelled as I marched over to him to make him stop. He turned towards me his eyes looked feral. I began to back away this wasn't like him at all "YOU THISIS ALLYOUR FAULT...IFIT WASNTF OR YOU SHEWO ULD STILL BEHERE!" He slurred angrily and grabbed me by my hair.

I whimpered scared and in pain. He threw me to the ground hard and kicked me in the stomach. I coughed as all the air escaped me "YOUWERE THEWORST DECISION EVER! WENEVER SHOULD OF ADOPTED YOU! SHENEVER WOULDOF THOUGH SHECOULD HAVE ANOTHERKID!" he kept yelling then spat at me. I was in shock, so Logan was right I was adopted. I tried to get up when I was shoved down the stairs. I hit every step on the way down and heard a loud crack and then pain. My vision was blurring from the pain as I saw my 'father' walk into the kitchen. I forced myself to my feet and ran. I ran till the pain was too great to handle. I dug deep inside myself and called out for Logan. I was surprised when instead of my voice came out a howl. I fell to my knees and before I lost consciousness I saw a grey blur running towards me and heard a howl...
