Why did I agree to this, Remus thought. Oh right cause my "friends" tried to kill me. He took another drink from the bartender and surveyed the room around him. There weren't that many people at the small, rundown pub, most people preferring the livelier one down the street. The perfect place to meet Fenrir Greyback. If he even decides to show up. Remus thought, bitterly.
Remus felt someone sit down on his right side. He turned and looked at the man. He looked young, around 26-27, with short, brown hair and really dark brown eyes. Couldn't even tell he was the infamous Fenrir Greyback, the most feared werewolf in Britian. Remus gave a small smirk, "Took you long enough to get here, Greyback"
"Had to come undetected. Ministry is still looking for me, you know?" Greyback said while signaling the bartender to give him a drink.
"Oh right. Because you bit all those kids and kidnapped one of them."
"They would have had a better life as one of us anyway. Plus I kidnapped the one that was being abused at home. Would live a better life with us. But does the Ministry care about that. Course not. Only wants to make us look bad." Remus snorted and shook his head. Greyback gave him a sideways glance. "So you decided to accept our offer. Why? Do they want you to spy for them?"
Remus let out a dark chuckle. "No. Absolutely not."
"And why should I trust you, Lupin?"
"I never gave you a reason to."
Fenrir shifted to survey Remus. "So tell me, Lupin. Why are you accepting my invitation now, when you so strongly said no, only about two weeks ago?"
"They tried to kill me. Put poison in my drink. The only reason I'm here is because I heard them talking about putting poison in my drink. Stupid bastards. Talking about poisoning me when I'm only a room away." Remus let out a harsh laugh and slammed his glass on the counter. "Can't believe a monster like me expected to find people who actually trusted me."
Fenrir shook his head. "We may be monsters, but not all monsters do monstrous things* We're better than whatever the rest of the world is. They're worse than we could possibly be."
"Should have believed you five years ago, when you told me that they would never accept me," Remus let out a defeated sigh. "I guess you don't trust me enough to actually let me join, so I'll just leave." Remus made a move to get up, but Fenrir grabbed his arm before he can.
"Wait. Fine, I'll bring you to the Dark Lord and he'll see if you can join his ranks."
"Perfect. Thanks Greyback."
"Fenrir. Call me Fenrir."
Remus gave a smile. "Alright. Thanks Fenrir."
