19

This chapter is more of a filler, BUT! a new character is introduced! YAY! Anyways thanks for reading:) enjoy this chapter, much love - k.h

After we eat Bentley has to go to a emergency pack meeting in another pack in the south for a few days which I am unable to attend till I'm officially Luna. And he leaves me in the castle alone, well not totally alone, He leaves 2 castle guards with me and tells me that Dylan should be back soon to hangout if I wish for company.  I'm slightly sad that Bentley had to go but I understand pack duties from being an alphas daughter. But also in the meantime bentleys mom is to teach me my Luna duties. But for now I have the morning to explore the castle.
I figure from looking at a layout map of the castle that all the fun rooms like the theatre, pool, gaming, bar, bowling and in the north wing so obviously I head there, first stop, the theatre.
I fast walk through different halls for what seems like hours till I finally reach the north wing. It looks similar to the other 3 wings, marble floors and black walls. The theme suits Bentley, dark but bold.
I head not the theatre room to see that a film is already being played, how strange? I peer into all the rows and see no one, but lucky for me that means I can pick any seat I want to watch. I play it safe and go to the very tops row and sit directly in the middle. Obviously getting the best view of the movie, I am startled when I here a pop corn machine go off! Someone's definitely in here.
It's a high rank vampire!
I instantly stiffen, what the heck is a vampire doing in the castle! I get up slowly, not caring about the movie anymore. Just as I am about to leave the row a voice stops me.
"Where are you off too so quickly little wolf" a dark figure says, leaving the shadows
The skin on my neck chills slightly. I turn around to see a man standing before me, same hight as Bentley, he has platinum blonde hair and brown eyes, he has a leaner build but still ripped, he's handsome but nothing compared to my mate.

"I'm sorry do I know you?" I ask crossing my arms and glaring at the vampire before me.
He  chuckles before taking a few steps towards me.
"You reek of Bentley and you where his mark so, no you don't know me, but soon hopefully, I mean I am Bentleys only sibling I feel mildly important" he says with a frown then a full blown smirk.
My eyes widen in shock, Bentley has a brother?! Who is a vampire ? How is that even possible! One of them must be adopted, but considering Bentley is alpha of the pack and vampires aren't really leaders I assume that it's this vampire that is not blood to the family.
"So tell me Abby, whatcha doing in the north wing?" He says staring at me intently.
"I can ask you the same thing..." I pause not knowing his name.
"Grayson" he says extending his hand. I ignore the gesture and continue what I was saying.
"Yes well Grayson, what would you happen to be doing in the north wing?"
He seems slightly annoyed that I ignored his hand but responded with an attitude.
"I asked you first little wolf"
Grayson starts to tap his fingers on the seat that he's leaning against, almost as if he's impatient for my answer. I groan and watch his fingers getting annoyed at the sound, and as if on cue he stops tapping and match's my crossed arm Frame
"Bentley is gone to a pack meeting for a few days and Dylan isn't home yet as far as I know so I was bored and got a map and boom now I'm here, why are you here?"
He takes in my answer and walks down towards the exit as he beckons me to follow. Reluctantly but curiously I do follow, which only gives him satisfactory.
When we both leave the theatre and i follow him up a small set of stairs before he takes a sharp left and opens a door. I was about to speak till I saw what was inside.
My mouth now lays wide open as I look at the room before me.
Blood, tons of it. There was blood bags hanging from the ceiling, tanks full of blood, a bath tub filled with blood. I'm slightly grossed out by it so I take a step back as Grayson admires the room.
"I live in the north wing by myself" he states before shutting the door. I nod my head now realizing that's what that blood would be for. Bentley is housing him in the fun wing where no one is allowed to go without alphas permission. Makes sense. He seems to want Grayson a secret. I furrow my brows, Grayson seems like a normal person, why hide him all the way at the other end of the castle.
As if reading my mind Grayson answers my question.

"I chose to live in the north wing, it's quiet and away from people, I enjoy it a lot. I have my own room, kitchen, theatre, swimmers pool, workout room. It's the best place in the house" he grins at me while saying that. But suddenly I feel like I'm ruining his alone time so I decide to make my leave politely.

"Well it was nice to meet you Grayson, but I must be going now before Dylan or your mom comes looking for me and panics, sorry for disturbing your movie earlier" I smile while speaking hoping he won't take it personally.
I turned around to walk away with my smile instantly fading as soon as my back is turned. I am almost out of the wing when I feel a cold hand grab my wrist lightly tugging me to turn around. I stiffen as I turn around and see Grayson standing looking nervous.
"Yes?" I ask with a small smile at his nervousness.
"Don't be a stranger eh? I don't bite, well at least not hard, it gets too lonely up here sometimes and I wouldn't mind watching a film with you or going swimming" he says looking at me with questioning eyes.
"Of course Grayson, I will try and come see you tomorrow" I say holding my hands in front of my stomach. He nods with a smile and turns back around walking back towards the theatre.
"Oh and Abby?" He stops and turns back around.
"Welcome to the family" he says before continuing his walk back with his hands now tucked in his front pockets.

I smile widely at his kindness as I watch him leave the hallway entering a room.
Maybe this wing could be my new hangout spot I tell myself
