Chapter 43

while Carlos doesn't want the werewolves to the humans, so he wants to destroy everything or anything that can change them and also take over the human world and wipe away the human race which is impossible but he is striving to do it, starting from you." Nicky stated.

"How did you know all this Nicky?' I asked with shaky voice. "Also I still don't understand" I whistled.

"I can explain, including how Nicky got to know" Bennett said quietly, he turned to the two men he came with and asked them to leave, they left.

He sat on the bed and made me sit down as well, he spent a good 20 minutes explaining everything to me. His story shocked me but not as bad as Nicky's.

"Nicky you... You are... You are mermaid?" I screamed out in shock.

"She's not my mother. After you went home that day we met, I began to roam the street, I didn't know where to go, I didn't even know where I was. I was lying down under a tree when I heard her voice. I lied to her that my parents are dead and no one wants me, so she took me and asked me to be her daughter and be calling her mum. Well what I told her wasn't a complete lie cause my real parents actually died but before my mother died, she gave me this amulet I always wear, she said if I wish on it, it can turn me into any being I wished for.
