"You've been able to speak this whole time?" Igor asked for clarification after I explained it all to them.
"Yup! I've also been a werewolf this whole time but before I came here only Joseph knew that," I said with a guilty smile because I felt bad that I didn't tell them now.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I heard Axton ask very quietly next to me. My heart broke at his sad voice so I grabbed him and hauled him out of the room.
"I didn't tell you because the first time I shifted involved a vampire. I was attacked by one and when he started to feed from me my wolf broke out and we knocked him out. That's also why I was so scared of you when your eyes turned black and you bit me." I shivered at the thought before I turned and started to walk back into the room. He grabbed me by the wrist and twirled me back around the corner and into him. He just held me there not that I was complaining before he pulled back to look me in the eyes.
"I'm sorry if I scared you. You're the only one I lose control like that with, normally I can control it." He sounded to disappointed in himself.
"It's okay, I'm getting used to it I guess," I said and lifted up my arm slightly which felt a bit better but was still numb.
"Thank you for that by the way," he smirked and licked his lips. I pushed him away and narrowed my eyes at him.
"No more of that bub!" I told him poking his chest before I turned to walk away. "At least, not today." I heard his deep chuckle behind me as I walked back into the dining room.
"Got anything else you need to ask me?" I asked them as I plopped down in my chair again.
"How are you so special?" Lucas asked and I cocked my head to the side. "Well it's mostly your wolf. You are incredibly large and strong for a female, I've never seen a wolf with your color fur. You were born with that hair color when both your parents had brown hair and none of your family are werewolves! You can shift parts of you when you need them, your blood freaking saved Axel and Raina from a disease only you have survived! I'm jealous!" He threw his hands up and huffed.
"I'm sorry? I guess I've just had a lot of time to bond with my wolf since I shifted so young. As to the hair and strength and size, I have no clue! Maybe I have some really distant family members that are wolves or something. I don't even know about the blood thing, I saw it in a video game and if it didn't work they would die anyways," I got progressively quieter.
Axton wrapped his arm around my shoulder and kissed my temple. "I didn't even know about most of this stuff," he whispered to me.
"Oh there is so much more you don't know blood sucker," I whispered back. He tensed up a bit but then looked at me questioningly. "Can I go tell him all the, er, you know...stuff," I asked lamely trying to avoid the word mate.
"Go ahead child," Marie told me with a wink.
I grabbed his hand and pulled him up to my room. I'm surprised he didn't resist at all.
"So what did you want to tell me about?" He questioned as he laid down on my bed and stretched out. I laid right next to him and put my head on his chest as I started drawing circles on his chest with my finger out of nervousness.
"Okay, this is really awkward for me to say so don't interrupt me please. I am a werewolf, you know that already. Every werewolf has a destined soulmate, we usually just shorten it to mate. The fates bring them together at some point in their lives and then they, live together for the rest of their lives I guess." I finished lamely hoping that he got my point.
"So if you find your mate you're going to have to leave me?" He asked. The tone of his voice made me want to cry. I sat up and swung my leg over him so I was straddling him as I grabbed his face.
"No! Don't you see? You are my mate!" I exclaimed with raised eyebrows. His mouth opened but he abruptly closed it before letting loose a killer smile.
"Glad to hear that," he whispered as he grabbed me and flipped us over so he was hovering over me. I squeaked and smiled up at him. "All of this," he said dragging his eyes up and down my body causing me to squirm "is mine?"
"Yes. And all of this," I said dragging my eyes down his body just like he did before I used my own strength to flip us back over "is mine!" And I leaned down and kissed him full on the lips for the first time.
Since he had taken my blood our connection was amplified, I guess it was like the equivalent to marking for a wolf which I still needed to do to him. His lips were warm and soft. He seemed a bit shocked at first and didn't move until I moved my hips and he quickly pulled me closer and eagerly kissed me back.

Just so you know, sex happens. I could do a proper sex scene but it makes me all giggly and awkward.
