Chapter 25

I patiently waited for Brian to answer my question, or well appeared to be patient. Brian sighed and replied at last, "I am a human, well as much as I can be considering the blood flowing through me."

"What blood?" I interrupted, there was something else too?

"I am not entirely human, we do have werewolf blood in our family?" Brain stated, carefully examining my reaction.

"Oh, who is it? Wait I know, it is Claire right?" I exclaimed remembering the conversation at Georgy's house. Bloody bitch! Literally!

"Well, it is more of my Dad than my Mum." That old man? He kinda seemed decent compared to his wife.

"Wow, I really liked your Dad." I murmured looking down at the ground.

"You don't like him now?" I looked up at Brian to see if I had offended him by insulting his parents.

However, Brian just grinned at me. He looked really handsome when he smiled.

"Frankly speaking, I don't care much about either of your parent." What? It was the truth. His parents were already against Ma and his wedding. How cruel parents!

"Both my parents have werewolf blood through their veins." My mouth hung open. Seriously?

"Then how come you are not one?" I questioned.

"You do know the concept of mates, right Nev?"

"Yup." The word mate left a weird taste in my mouth as I remembered the whole Alden-Melissa controversy.

Melissa made it sound like 'mates' are a blessing while the actions of her own mate said otherwise.

"Well, the only way a child will be werewolf is when they are a product of the union of mates. Only a pair of mates with one wolf gene or maybe both can give birth to a werewolf."

"Okay." I nodded my head still not getting it why Brian wasn't one.

"So your parents are not mates?" That was the only conclusion in my mind.

"Actually they are just humans." Brian's reply left me baffled. Looking at my probably confused and distressed state Brian sat down on the grass taking my one hand in his.

"Nev, what I am trying to say here is that both my parents are humans. Humans don't mate like werewolves.

My parents are not werewolves, but they do have a more special connection with each other because of their blood." Brian explained slowly.

"I still don't get it Brian."

"Okay, let me tell you my family story."

"Okay, go ahead."

Brian took a deep breath and started." My family has been living in this land since centuries, just like all the wolves here. My maternal grandfather was Xavier Crowney."

"Why does he have the same name as Xavier, Easton's best bud?"

"Because Xavier is probably my cousin in some form."

"Are you sure? I mean look at him and then look at you, there is so much difference between you both."

"Xavier is probably my third or fourth cousin, believe me there is no much of blood connection between us, let alone that of character. And stop interrupting me Neveah. Let me complete this topic and then you can ask questions."

"Alright, alright", I say waving my in a dismissing motion.

"As I was saying, Xavier was my maternal grandfather. He was a very powerful man in the werewolf world.
