As soon as the door closed behind him, she walked over to the couch and settled down on it. It didn't take long for her to feel restless and uncomfortable. Without Alex by her side, she didn't feel like she belonged in the big house. She looked around. The house belonged to the three vampires... now, two. And a werewolf didn't belong in it even if she had unexpectedly imprinted on the owner. She got up and paced the floor for a few moments before she decided to slip out quietly. At the door, she hesitated. She wanted to let Alex know that she was leaving but he needed the time alone. She also wanted to let Shade know but he was still grieving over the loss of Kitty. She seemed so much more to him than he let on. Deciding not to bother both, she left without a word.

He didn't see the need to sugar coat his words and so he spoke straightforwardly. [color=lightgreen]"I'm afraid you will not find the answers to be pleasant,"[/color] he started. [color=lightgreen]"Judging from the size and the depth of that wound on your shoulder, yes, you were bitten by a werewolf. I can still smell his scent on you,"[/color] he frowned. [color=lightgreen]"As for his reasons why he bit you, I can't say for sure. But yes, on the next full moon, you will turn into a werewolf. And with the transformation will come anger, rage and a thirst to kill and maim."[/color]
