Ethan's POV

"Her family hasn't gone rogue on her again and tried to kill her yet right?" Grayson asked.

"Nope. She's doing okay. Or at least that's what she told me."

Mia's POV

"Time for school, kiddo." my aunt barged into my room.

"What's it gonna take for you guys to leave Ethan alone? He didn't do anything. He hasn't done anything."

"I'm not gonna argue about this this early in the morning. You have an education to get. So come on, get up." she lightened her tone and walked out.

"Well if you'd leave him alone I'd stop arguing about it." I said to myself.

I got out of bed and grabbed a quick granola bar before leaving the house. I just wanna know what's so special about that damn code. I wanna know why we've held onto it for so long.

I went to pick Brie up and drove the two of us to school.

We stood outside the doors of the main hallway.

"Are you sure about this?"

I knew she was a little uneasy about this. Going missing for a few days and having people talk about it is a little awkward. Everyone knew she was missing. People talked.

She sighed and nodded.

"People are staring." she tensed up.

"Brie, I am so sorry for what he said to you. It was so rude. But at least now we all know his true side." some dude walked over to us.

"What? What is he talking about?" Brie asked me.

"Just trust me on this one okay?"

She hesitantly nodded.

Our other friends walked over to her and she said she'll see me later.

"When did she–" Grayson started.

"Don't ask." I raised my hand.

"We still need to figure out who did this. You said Steven didn't bite you right?"

Ethan's POV

"Yeah." I replied.

"So that leaves us 4 out. I highly doubt it was those three." he looked at Jack, Meredith, and Nate. We could tell Nate was still pissed off at Jack. I would be too.

"They probably would've went insane and killed each other by the first full moon if that's the case." Grayson continued.

"I'll catch up with you guys during class okay? We have 30 mins and I have to go research some stuff." she started walking away.

"Who could it be?"

"Who hates me enough to want me in their pack? I honestly can't think of anyone. If they hate me, why would they want me in their pack? None of this makes sense."

"Okay so, let's just name people that hate you. Jack, Nate, Meredith, Steven, Jake–"

"What if it's Jake? Or Logan even? He hasn't been back since his house fire."

"Ethan. I wouldn't wanna be back either. It's a traumatic experience. I wouldn't be able to handle it."

"I just wanna know who did this so that they can fix me."

"It can't be Logan. He was in that fire. They pulled his body out and everything it was disgusting."

"Is that a fact or??"

"Yes. I was there when they announced him dead and took him to the morgue."

Mia's POV

Werewolf hunters.

I typed in. Nothing. Um...

Werewolf hunter legends.

"Marie-Jeanne Valet." I said to myself.

That was the first post that came up. Interesting.

"Marie was the sister of Sebastien Valet and a skilled hunter who was skeptical of the supernatural's existence. Marie lead a hunting party to kill it as per her brother's request.

The Beast attacks at night. She was rescued by Henri Argent who explained that the beast was a werewolf and offered to teach her how to combat the supernatural."

What the hell? What beast?

"With Henri's help, she forged a steel spear tip in the shape of a fleur-de-lis mixed with Mountain Ash, Wolfsbane, and her own blood under the light of a full moon.

For three years, Marie hunted Sebastien until the winter of 1767. She picked up the spear that was hidden in the snow and quickly turned to face Sebastien. Momentum carried the beast onto the spear which protrudes out his back. As Sebastien dies, she promises that no one will remember him, only as a beast. Marie and the townspeople initiated Damnatio Memoriae to erase every trace of her brother's existence until Marcel found a way to revive him.

Marie and Henri eventually marry and start a family."

It also states the same code that my family lives by so maybe this is where they got it.

So she took his last name Argent. But if this was an ancestor of mine, why do we have different last names?

I jotted down some notes and started walking to class.

"Did you find what you were looking for?" Ethan asked.

"What? Oh. Yeah."

"Is everything okay?"

"Yeah. Everything's fine."

I was anxious to get home and ask my family about this. The picture they used resembled the exact same picture on the necklace my aunt had once given me.

The day was finally over and I sped home. I needed answers. I walked straight into the kitchen.

"Who's Marie-Jeanne Valet?"
