- 17: "New View Of The World" -

Wesley's POV:

He grabbed me by the shoulders, his grip was strong enough to pull me out of my thoughts. "Mate." Bravian said to get my attention fully on him. "Nothing is wrong with you, but we need to tell you something. You have to trust us, because there is no more hiding now." I looked him in the eyes, I was scared. I didn't break contact, I was pleading for help at this point. I'm confused, I'm worried, I-I dont know..

"You are a werewolf now, Wesley."

I had to sit down on the couch. Those words hit me like a train, I didn't know how to process them. Cortez kneeled down to me immediately after I sat down. He was the perfect height for us to be face to face and for me to look him in the eyes still. "I-I can tell you're not joking, but-" "But how?" I nodded when he finished my question.

He didn't say anything, he just lifted up my shirt to show me the scar I had. His face contorted into an angry scowl when he stared at it. That's when I realized it. "That.. that was a werewolf?" "And that thing is dead now, fucking trash."

I should have known, I should have. The wound healed up way too fast to scar, it's only been a few weeks. It was too big for it to heal just like that. I feel like an idiot.. How did I not even notice when these weird things happened?

I put my head in my hands as I felt Cortez's hand come to my head. "You are going to have a new view of the world now." "Are werewolves a rare species or are they.." I asked him and I saw him read my question.

"The main species in the whole world are werewolves." My heart stopped at that rate. "If I had to guess, about 3/4 of the world are werewolves, but even that probability could be higher." "That many?!"

"Well, to be fair, it continuously grows as human mates are turned by their werewolf mates." Zenith said, thinking about it in his head. "Ah, sorry, I just thought it'd be something informal."

"Wait, would you have turned me?" "Not without your consent. We would both have loved if you agreed, but there was no pressuring if you did not want to." "Well, now I don't have a choice-" A growl ripped from Cortez's throat, it was deep and loud enough to let me know that it may have been Bravian growling.

"You do not know the intensity of the hellfires of anger that raised in me when I noticed." I sighed and just hugged his neck to gain comfort. I don't know anymore, I'm just not even gonna question it anymore at this point. "Sorry mate." "It's fine, I just didn't expect the morning to start off crazy like this. Plus, I probably would've consented anyway." I heard him growl when I said that, and I'm guessing it was approving.

"If it makes you feel better, there could've been worse mornings!" Taurus joked, earning a slap to the back of his head by Zenith. "Hey-!" "Not the time, toro."

I giggled at the fact he got slapped and he is right.. the morning could have been way worse, I guess. I obviously can't escape this, so I have to just adapt to it-

Wait.

"Cortez." I said immediately after I had my thought. He raised his head to look at me in my eyes, and it seemed like he knew what I was about to ask. "Ah, yes." "That fucker got Nox turned too?!" I screamed out, gripping onto Cortez's shoulders with a death grip. "Qué demonios?! Está herido?! Qué le pasará?!"
