Sorin's POV

We headed to the manor and then contacted Sam. Daciana seemed to be interested in the matter, to such lengths that no matter how much she denied it, the fact that she was waving her tail in excitement gave her away. Certainly she had never heard of such things as a hybrid in her life. I've heard the word various times, but had never encountered one. To be honest, I never even thought they could look like...this.

-"So, um...You said your name is Gavril?"- began Sam.

The guy simply nodded and glanced at Daciana.

-"I had never seen a hybrid like her. It's quite amusing"- Gavril confessed while smiling at her.

Daciana placed her hands on her ears and bent a bit forward.

-"Sam...this is embarrassing"- said Daciana who surely wasn't a hybrid and didn't even know how to tell the guy that she was actually the alpha of the Lupu Clan.

This seems interesting...

It had been a while since I saw Daciana being all flustered and all. I truly believe seen her like this is better than having her looking like she's about to cry, thanks to my insensitive human brother Lucian, who is supposed to be her mate.

-"Sorry to ruin it lad, but we are still trying to figure out if she's a hybrid or not"-said Sam in an exasperated tone of voice.

It rather seemed that it was just what he didn't want, one more weirdo to deal with. Gavril looked at him a bit confused and then turned to look at Daciana.

-"Well...I mean...She isn't a full wolf. She couldn't possible be a half breed now, would she?"- said Gavril.

Daciana sunk in her chair and most probably wished to vanish. I mean, her whole clan knows about this, my clan knows it too. And now some random stranger has to figure it out as well? Gavril dropped his shoulders and smiled tenderly at Daciana.

-"It's okay. You can tell me later. Feels like all of ya have a lot to deal with, anyways. By any chance...have you seen a red-haired vampire around here?"- asked Gavril.

My eyes widened. I opened my mouth ready to voice my conclusion when the door of the meeting room slammed opened and the ginger woman made her way into the room with bloodshot eyes.

-"Gavril!"- said Dacia while she looked shocked from Daciana to Gavril unable to say anything else.

Gavril stood up and smiled.

-"I knew I'd find you here"- he said with a smirk on his face.

I sat down and let a long and deep sigh out of my system. I thought the whole issue with Penelope and all the secrets thy kept from Daciana had been complex, but now I realise that this is just a mere lost cause. Daciana looked up at her grandmother slightly relieved. I bet she was waiting for someone to take the attention off of her.

-"Grandma!"- said Daciana.

Dacia looked at her a bit shocked, well who wouldn't when she had never called her like that.

I had totally forgotten that she has this weird mood or personality swings when she's in her half form.

Gavril looked at Daciana shocked as well.

-"Grandma?! But, she's my mother "- said Gavril who was now even more shocked to know that the half breed and himself seemed to be related.

I knew this was coming...

. . .

Alexander didn't know how to hide his excitement. We had all been sent to see him and now we were all going to be questioned, etc etc. He simply stood up and walked around Gavril who had been on his guard ever since we came to meet Alexander.

-"So he's a hybrid? And amazing...I've never seen such transformation like yours"- he then looked at Daciana.

Daciana rolled her eyes and folded her arms across her chest. Lucian, of course, was nowhere to be seen.

-"I'm going to call her a hybrid"-said Alexander while shrugging and heading to his desk.

-"A Hybrid? Didn't you say this was all just some weird mutation and all and that it couldn't possibly be a hybrid incident?"- Sam was the first one to talk back.

Alexander was always confusing us. Then, the stupidest fact hit my mind. Penelope had made such a big deal about having the Bucurs in one side and the Lupus in another when in reality, both Daciana and Emil are Bucurs. I simply facepalmed and everyone looked at me curiously.

-"Is everything alright?"- asked Dacia who looked at me a little worried.

While those two had been arguing I had been thinking about such trivial things and made everyone think I'm crazy.

-"Hey, Sam"- I said.

He turned to look at me a little annoyed. At this point he expects nothing good to come out of my mouth.

-"Have you ever thought about how serious this matter is for the Bucur Clan?"- I began

-"Well...we're talking about the alpha of both clans, so it does concern me"- he said while arching an eyebrow as if to tell me that it was pretty obvious that he cared.

-"She's a Bucur. You're clan's reputation is on stake"-

Dacia's eyes widened. I could sense that she wanted to kill me on the spot for throwing more things to deal with.

-"I really never felt like a Lupu. I just have it as a name"-Daciana said her thoughts as bluntly as she could, which made Dacia go stiff.

-"So you didn't even even hear about your grandfather?"- Dacia finally spoke.

Her words made everyone look at her. Her expression was quite serious. Ever since she got here she had never said a word about him. Alexander sat there taking for his investigation. If I were him I wouldn't miss the chance to hear about the most complex werewolf society in Transylvania. Daciana's silence served as an answer for Dacia's question. She walked towards the girl, took her by her wrist and walked out without telling anyone what she was going to do or where she would be going. I simply dashed out to follow them. While Silviu's busy I take his job of guardian, so I can't let them go like that.

They go into a more private place around the manor and stop. Dacia sighed and looked at Daciana somewhat bitterly.

-"Before anyone else says something , let me say it now"-Dacia began. "It's true that I'm some weird mutant and that my genes have affected you as well and I'm very sorry for that. About Penelope...I know you must hate her even after her death...But I slightly feel sad about it because, even if she was a psychopath , she was still my elder sister"-Daciana's eyes slightly widened.

I was shocked and then struck with some guilt... I killed Penelope.

-"What Sorin said..."- she began again and then left a long pause. "He is right. You and your father Emil are most probably the first Bucur alphas. Your grandfather was a Bucur and...just like your friend Silviu...He was also an Omega."

I could see Daciana's hands clench into fists. With all honesty, I don't know what she's thinking, but surely she had kind of figured out that much on her own.

-"What about Gavril?"- Daciana threw the card on the table.

My conclusion was that he's most probably Dacia's secret son. By the other hand, Dacia's expression made me doubt such conclusion.

-"He's your twin brother"- Dacia's words were so shocking that even Daciana's tail and ears vanished.

Hold it right there! He's whose brother?!
