"Althea, honey, promise me you will never shift in front of others again" My mom said, her voice was filled of sadness. It was actually suffocating, I'm not used to see her so sad, but I understand her. She just lost her husband, her mate and my father.

"Why Ma? Isn't it good that I can shift?" I asked slightly frowning. I don't understand, being able to shift was something that was a great achievement for a werewolf. So why I can't?

"Honey, when the time comes and you're much older I'll explain everything to you. right now what's important is your promise" she said slowly like she was talking with a five years old girl instead of nine and we both know I can understand her because for a nine years old my brain was more advanced than others. That's why Sarah called me nerd and freak because I'm smarter than her.

"fine I promise, but how about Sitti? She needs me to shift" I said sighing.

"Sitti?" She asked raising her perfect eyebrows.

"My wolf, she said her name is Sitti" I said.

"Oh, well tell Sitti that you can still shift but at the cellar" she said giving me a small smile.

"so I can't run?" I asked. I heard the other shifters talking they said that being in a wolf form feels great especially when you're running. So I'm always looking forward for the day I can shift, but now that I can shift it looks like that will never happen, and I was right.

"Sorry honey" she said looking like she's in pain. To be honest I'm the one who's in pain, Sitti kept on whimpering inside my head and she's giving me headache.

"okay" I said while softly laying my head down on my pillow.

"Goodnight honey" she whispered before kissing my forehead.

"Goodnight" I said watching her standing up from my bed. "Ma?" I called before she reach my bedroom door.

"Yes honey" she asked looking at me.

"Am I a murderer?" I asked biting my lower lip. "I know what I saw those dead bodies around me. It's me who killed them. isn't it?" I asked. I could taste the metallic taste in my mouth. 

"Oh, honey," she said running back and pulling me into a hug after a minute she pushed me away slowly, so she could look into my face "Don't think that about yourself. You're not a murderer. Never say it again, I know this sounds like a lame excuse, but what you did there was to defend yourself. They killed your father and they were going to kill you. You did what was best at that time and Sitti knows that that's why she helped you.". She said looking into my eyes with her watery eyes.

I said okay but I still feel that what I did was wrong. Those rogues who killed my father brutally in front of me, my father who tried to protect me with his own life, their blood will be forever in my hands.

So what do you guys think? It's actually my first time writing a story. I'm kind of nervous to be honest. Tell me if I should continue or not. Please.. thank you.. and English is my second language, so if you let me continue (I hope) there'll be some grammar mistakes. I'm not sensitive about it, so you can leave a comment and I'll correct it. That's it and thank you..
