If you could see life through my eyes

Chapter 4

Lucius's POV

Grandaddy's office was small. A book shelf ran along the back wall and was jam packed with old books. He had a three seated sofa on one side of the room and a small desk under the small window on the other, which was covered with sheets after sheets of paper. Lucius and Katerina watched his grandaddy limp up to the book case. Pulling out a huge dusty book he said "Now i only have books on WereWolfs but your kind is fairly simular. We were both created at the same time by the same people." he turned around and headed to the sofa. Lucius walked over and sat beside him, he looked back at Katerina who was still standing by the door and patted the seat next to him. She slowly walked over and sat down.

Lucius's grandady cleared his throat and said "I will start off by telling you the history of us then you can ask questions. Is that alright?" he asked Katerina. She nodded, not trusting her voice.

"It all started a few centuries ago. A beatiful 15 year old girl was being abused by her family. Being scared she ran away, only to be found by a tribe who believed in spirits. She lived with the tribe for a few months and in this time she became very close to a boy who was the same age. On her 16th birthday the boy took her out into the woods, as he had a suprise for her. Unfortunalty they were attacked by wolfs and left for dead. The young girl passed out however the boy lay beside the girl, protecting her even in his weak state. The boy prayed that someone would find them and help them and his wish came true. The moon goddess that the tribe worshiped approched the children and told the boy that if he would be faithful to the innocent girl and vow to protect her and his tribe she would grant them both the gift to heal, be strong and fast. However for the gift to work they had to be bitten by an animal. She was not specific on which animal it would be. The goddess disappeared and a earth shattering howl was head. Leaving the girl the boy dragged himself to where the wolf was. He provoked the wolf who then bite him. His transformation was complete. He retuned to the girl to find her being attacked by a snow leapord. Her transformation was also complete but she was still unconcious. The boy carried her back to his tribe where she healed. Both of them only thought that they had the power to heal and be strong however on their 18th birthday the tribe was attacked. Due to their vow to protect each other and their tribe anger provoked the animal within them causing them both to shift into the animal they had been bitten by. The genes have been passed down through genertations since. Males being wolfs and females being cats."  Katerina was shocked. She had never heard such a beatiful story before. "Also due to one not exsiting without the other, Mates was created. For every wolf there is a cat who are destined to be together." Grandaddy finished his story and got up to place the book back on the shelf. He turned around to look at a confussed Katerina. "Do you have any questions young one?" he asked.
