Now let's go to the story
Aurelia
Here I'am , taking one last look at the place I have called home.
Aurelia
Moving to a different place would probably be for the best.
Aurelia
I had get to spend a lot of time with my grandparents.
Aurelia
I haven't seen them in the last 7 years, after all.
Aurelia
I had get to reconnect with some childhood friends in that town.
Aurelia
I had escape the bittersweet memories within the confinement of these walls.
Aurelia
The birthdays, the movie nights, the warmth.
Aurelia
The coldness that quickly replaced those things, never letting you go back.
Nana
"Are you all ready to go sweetie?" Her gentle voice approached me from behind.
Aurelia
I took a deep breath and finally grasp the doorknob.
Aurelia
"Let's go." I wore a brave smile, finally ready to leave the place I called home.
Aurelia
I arrived at a small town in the middle of the Rockies,
Aurelia
... Surrounded with seemingly endless evergreen.
Aurelia
Breathing in the crisp, cold air brought me the nostalgia of summers and Christmas.
Aurelia
I had often visited this place during vacation when I was young.
Aurelia
Road trips filled with songs faintly sounded at the back of my mind.
Grandpa
"You OK? Do you want some help with your luggage?."
Aurelia
His voice breaks me away from my thoughts.
Aurelia
"Yeah, I'm ok..It's just that It's been so long since I last came here." I exhaled.
Aurelia
"But it seems like not much has changed."
Grandpa
"I'm not so sure about that."He speaks with a musing tease.
Grandpa
"All your childhood friends have grown up and your Nana hasn't gotten any younger. "
Grandpa
He laughs before receiving a light hit on the arm from your Nana.
Nana
"Like you're getting younger yourself!" She huffed and crossed her arms.
Aurelia
She doesn't stay mad for long as grandpa coaxed her with a gentle hug.
Aurelia
I can't help but smile at the playful relationship the two elders have.
Aurelia
It reminded me of the way my parents lovingly bantered with each other.
Aurelia
My eyes started stinging as the flashback of memories cross my mind.
Aurelia
"I'll go ahead and unpack in my room."
Aurelia
I excused myself before they could see the tears in my eyes.
Aurelia
I quickly lock the doors in my room and held back quite sobs.
Aurelia
There's no way I will let my grandparents see me cry again.
Aurelia
They were hurting just as much as I was and they've been so strong for me.
Aurelia
I took deep breaths to calm myself down.
Aurelia
Crying won't bring the dead back to life.
Aurelia
I've already cried myself to sleep for months since my parents passed away.
Aurelia
There was no way they'd want to see me this way.
Aurelia
This was chance at a new beginning. My chance at healing and moving on.
Aurelia
I slowly stood up and walked towards my window to let some fresh air in.
Aurelia
I turn to look at my suitcase and stand up to start unpacking my things.
Aurelia
I shot up from bed, covered in cold sweat as I tried to calm down.
Aurelia
This dream kept playing over and over again since the accident.
Aurelia
Most of it made sense to how I remembered the incident.
Aurelia
The wolf was something that baffled even the doctors, however.
Aurelia
They said that my mind may be exaggerating traumatic events of the accident.
Aurelia
A wolf crossing that made the car swerve and crash...
Aurelia
.. Instead of the snarling monster that attacked the car in my nightmares.
Nana
"Aurelia, honey,come down for breakfast!" She called from downstairs.
Aurelia
"Coming, Nana!" I answered, getting up for my first day of senior year.
"Aurelia is that you?!?!" I heard a girl call my name out from behind me.
Aurelia
I turn around to see a familiar face beaming my way.
Aurelia
"Charlotte??" Despite aging a few years, her pretty features still remained the same.
Charlotte
"Oh my god, it is you!!!" She runs to me to give me the biggest hug.
Charlotte
"You left me for 7 years!" She pouted at me.
Aurelia
"I know, I'm sorry! I didn't really have a choice.." You hugged her back.
Aurelia
"I really missed you."I sighed, feeling the wave of nostalgia.
Aurelia
Charlotte was practically my sister when I was younger
Aurelia
We had the best time together whenever I'd come visit town.
Aurelia
I had kept in touch before I had shut myself from the world.
Charlotte
"I really missed you too! It hasn't been the same since you left..." She sighed.
Aurelia
"I beg to differ... This town hasn't changed at all." I softly smiled.
Charlotte
"Yeah, so it seems at first..." You catch her mumble to herself.
Charlotte
"How are you feeling? I heard about everything from your grandparents..."
Aurelia
You can see the genuine concern written on her face.
Aurelia
"It hasn't been easy but everyone's been really helpful."
Aurelia
I hated the pitiful looks people gave me but slowly I've come to accept it.
Charlotte
"you've already registered for classes right? Let me see your schedule."
Aurelia
She looks through the piece of paper for a while, checking your classes.
Charlotte
"Sweet! We got a couple of classes together so we can help each other out!"
Charlotte
"It's a good thing you've only missed the first week so there isn't much to cover."
Aurelia
"thanks for the offer Charlotte.. I really appreciate it."
Aurelia
I gave her a smile as we walked into our first class.
Aurelia
We just took a seat next to each other near the back.
Aurelia
More faces start filling the room, surprised to see a new student in the room.
Aurelia
You feel strange as a group of boys seem to be watching from behind me.
Aurelia
Something about them felt familiar but it had been so long.
Aurelia
I was having a hard time trying to remember who they were.
Charlotte
"don't worry about them." She noticed how uncomfortable I was.
Charlotte
"They're all really nice once you get to know them."
Aurelia
I quietly nodded my head,trying not to feel too weirded out.
Aurelia
I hated feeling like the odd person out but there's no helping in my situation.
Teacher
"OK, everyone settle down!" She called the room's attention.
Teacher
"Before we get started, let's give our student a warm wel--"
Aurelia
The teachers word got interrupted as another student comes through the door.
Christian
"Sorry I'm late."
Aurelia
He came into the room huffing lightly, like he tried to get to class on time.
Aurelia
He wore a big hoodie, his backpack casually hung on his shoulder.
Aurelia
Something about his aura commanded attention, as if he had authority.
Aurelia
His soft hair framed his captivating features perfectly, his eyes deep and inviting.
Aurelia
It was uncharacteristic of me to be curious about a boy but for the first time,
Aurelia
It seems like I joined the majority in the room that's under his spell.
Aurelia
He was about to say something else but he stops.
Aurelia
It was like something had caught his attention. His eyes search the entire room until he found mine,
Aurelia
Giving me a soul-piercing stare that made me both nervous and excited.
Teacher
"Your frequent tardiness is very unusual, Christian." She commented.
Aurelia
My eyes widen in surprise as I heard the teacher call his name.
Aurelia
My heart picks up its pace more at the sound of that name.
Aurelia
Could he really be Christian?
Christian
"Coach Lee's been extending meetings with the league game coming up."
Christian
"I made him write an excuse note for me this time."
Christian
He charmingly smiled as he handed a piece of paper to the teacher.
Teacher
"Go have a seat." She shook her head and smiled, letting him off the hook.
Aurelia
I tried to avoid gawking at him as he made his way towards me,
Aurelia
Taking the vacant seat with the group of boys behind me.
Aurelia
I tried to calm myself down. He might not remember me anymore.
Teacher
"As I was saying, welcome to our school, Ms. Aurelia. "
Aurelia
She brings all attention back to me before starting the lesson.
Little did she know that someone was looking at her.
Lycan : Ep - 2
In the school's cafeteria.
Charlotte
"Wow, some things really doesn't change after all!"
Charlotte
She exclaimed as we were walking in the cafeteria for lunch.
Charlotte
"At least there's still one aspect of that guy that hasn't changed."
Aurelia
"Who are you talking about?"
Charlotte
"Remember when I told you things hasn't been the same since you left?"
Aurelia
"Yeah, what about it?"
Charlotte
"One of them is my cousin, Christian."
Charlotte
She points out as we took a seat on one of the tables.
Aurelia
"So that guy who came in late today really is Christian?" I couldn't help but confirm.
Charlotte
"Yep, the one and only." She nodded at me.
Genevieve
"What gossip are we talking about now?" A girl joins our table.
Jessica
"If it's the seemingly romantic gestures Edward's been doing for Charlotte.."
Jessica
"I still think it's a bad idea." Another girl sits at the table.
Genevieve
"If the guy is serious, who are we to judge?"
Genevieve
"Besides Charlotte doesn't seem to mind..." The first girl interjects.
Charlotte
"Yah, no one is talking about Edward!" She shakes her head at them.
Charlotte
"Anyway, you guys remember Aurelia, right?"
Genevieve
"Of course we remember Aurelia!" She claimed dramatically.
Jessica
"It's so nice to see our group finally having a reunion!"
Genevieve
"The blackpink girls are back in your area!!"
Genevieve
She beamed she and the rest of the girls envelope me in a group hug.
Genevieve
"I can't believe you guys are still keeping our cabin's tacky name!"
Aurelia
I can't help but let out a genuine laugh.
Aurelia
The first one since your parents away.
Aurelia
You finally remember the girls as your friends while sharing a cabin.
Aurelia
A few summers of dance camp from the age of 8 until your last visit at 10.
Charlotte
"Hey, our cabin ruled dance camp! We can't drop the iconic name."
Genevieve
"Back to what's important! What were you two talking about? I want in."
Charlotte
"We were talking about my great cousin." She emphasized to the girls.
Aurelia
I was intrigued as the atmosphere changes into something serious.
Jessica
"I'm not sure that's a good idea for a topic of discussion." She seemed to gulp.
Genevieve
"Yeah, I really don't think it's a good idea." She seconded the motion.
Aurelia
"Are you guys scared? Of sweet, angelic Christian??" I was beyond surprised.
Genevieve
"Ssshhh! He might hear you." She hushed your voice down.
Charlotte
"Gone are the days when we knew him as sweet and innocent, Aurelia..."
Charlotte
"My cousin has changed A LOT since the last time you were here."
Aurelia
In most cases, you would've easily dropped the topic and move on...
Aurelia
... But nothing has piqued my interest like this in a very long time.
Genevieve
"We can't really say but 2 years ago, he went on a trip to Alaska with his dad."
Genevieve
"When he came back a year later, he hasn't been the same."
Charlotte
"I mean you can't really blame him." She tries to explain.
Charlotte
"He is supposed to take over the family business after graduation..."
Charlotte
"Uncle's been hard on him with training."
Charlotte
"With a lot of responsibilities, he's not the same Christian you used to know."
Charlotte
"He's gonna take his place as a leader..." She mutters under her breath.
Aurelia
"Like the leader of those boys he's sitting with?"
Aurelia
I gestured to the table where Christian and a group of boys were sitting.
Genevieve
"You could say that." She simply nodded. "They kinda keep to themselves."
Jessica
"All of them are in the soccer team with Christian standing as there team captain."
Jessica
"They're the first group in this town to make it to a provincial level league."
Genevieve
"And now they're on their way to nationals. The golden boys of this town."
Aurelia
I was surprised to hear about Christian being a leader and playing soccer.
Aurelia
The Christian that I knew loved to sing and was as gentle as a butterfly.
Genevieve
"The one who seems like all he drinks are energy drinks is Evan."
Aurelia
She points at the loud, energetic fellow.
Jessica
"The one with the flirty smile is Daniel."
Jessica
"He is literally good at everything even though he's the youngest."
Jessica
"Also he's like Christian's 2nd-in-command."
Jessica
"The guy beside Evan is Edward. He's --"
Genevieve
"Charlotte's favourite guy in the whole world. Heart eyes when he passes by."
Charlotte
"Genevieve!" She looks at her incredulously.
Genevieve
"What? It's true!" She shrugs.
Aurelia
"Ah, so he's the guy making the moves on Charlotte... Noted."
Aurelia
I nodded, riding along with Genevieve's teasing.
Charlotte
"Aurelia, not you too! You're supposed to be on my team."She crossed her arms.
Aurelia
"Sorry, I saw the heart eyes too. so..." I smiled at her teasingly.
Genevieve
"Yes, Aurelia! See, she knows what's up." We both gave each other a hive five.
Aurelia
The hollow void in my chest when my parents passed away may still be there
Aurelia
But slowly, it's getting filled up again.
Aurelia
It's nice to reconnect with friends like no amount of time has passed.
Charlotte
"Well again, as I've mentioned, looks like some things don't change."
Aurelia
I followed her gaze and turn my head to see Christian sitting across the cafeteria.
Aurelia
My heart starts beating faster as I saw his eyes trained on me.
Jessica
"Looks like our mighty leader has old habits he can't break." She chuckles.
Aurelia
"What are you guys talking about?" I shook my head at them.
Genevieve
"Oh, come on! You guys were practically inseparable when we were kids."
Aurelia
"We weren't inseparable!" I protested as heat made its way to my cheeks.
Charlotte
"Sureee.....We totally believe you." She nodded her head.
Charlotte
"It's not like you too were bawling your eyes out whenever it's time to go home."
Charlotte
"You guys were so upset cuz you kept thinking you'd never see each other again."
Aurelia
"We were kids." I pointed that out to them.
Aurelia
"Besides, is he really gonna remember any of that?"
Charlotte
"Trust me, if there's one person Christian has never forgotten..."
Lycan :Ep - 3
Aurelia
It was finally the end of a long first day at class.
Aurelia
As I put my stuff in my locker, I felt like someone was watching me.
Aurelia
I look around and catch Christian standing by his locker a few meters away.
Aurelia
He was staring at me.
Aurelia
Despite the confusing warning that the girls had told me earlier,
Aurelia
... I can't help wanting to approach him and talk to him.
Aurelia
There's always been this affinity towards him that I felt since I was younger.
Aurelia
And now, staring into his eyes made it feel like it's getting stronger.
Aurelia
I don't really know if it's the thrill of seeing him...
Aurelia
Afterall, he's all grown up into quite a handsome guy.
Aurelia
Or was it the bond that we both have shared since I was little?
Aurelia
Either way, there was no denying that I felt drawn to him like a magnet.
Aurelia
I close my locker, willing myself to have the courage to speak to him.
Christian
"So you're back in town, huh?"
Christian
He breaks the silence, finally speaking to me for the very first time in 7 years.
Aurelia
"Y-yeah..." I struggle to get my words out. "I'm back for good."
Christian
"So I've heard." He nodded.
Christian
"I gotta say I'm a little offended at the fact that you don't even remember me...
Christian
"here I thought I was your favourite person in the world."
Christian
"kinda expected you to jump into my arms like you always do."
Christian
His lips rest into a faint, playful smirk. His eyes seem so neutral, almost empty.
Aurelia
I can't help but roll my eyes at his statement.
Aurelia
This Christian is definitely different from the one I remember.
Aurelia
He had this air of arrogance about him, an ego that never existed before.
Aurelia
"it wasn't always and the last time I jumped into your arms, we were 7, Chris."
Christian
"Ah, so you do remember me.." He mused, a light smile gracing his lips.
Aurelia
"I remember the sweet boy named Chris... I'm not so sure if he's still there."
Aurelia
"He was too much of a gentleman to even think about taunting people."
Aurelia
I looked him dead in the eye, searching for any signs of the old Christian.
Christian
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, princess..."
Christian
"If you're looking for Prince Charming, you'll only end up breaking your heart."
Aurelia
The sudden darkness clouding his eyes startled me.
Christian
"You might just find out that the Big Bad Wolf had gobbled him all up."
Aurelia
It was as if he had seen hell and lived through it.
Aurelia
The closer I look at him, the more I see...
Aurelia
The anguish, anger, and emptiness hidden behind his handsome features.
Aurelia
Before I could ask any further, I heard someone calling me from behind.
Genevieve
"Aurelia,did you wanna come grab coffee with us?"
Genevieve
She offers, calling my attention away from Christian.
Aurelia
"Yeah, just give me a sec. I quickly smiled before turning back at Christian."
Aurelia
But I was too late. He was already walking out the door.
Christian
He walks out of the school building towards the 3 boys waiting for him.
Evan
"What did coach say?" He asked in concern.
Christian
"It's not like he'd be able to reject a request made by my dad."
Edward
"Why do you think your dad called an urgent meeting?"
Christian
"It's probably the bloody massacre of the family a few months ago."
Daniel
"A rouge killing a defenseless human family...." He sighs at the tragedy.
Daniel
"The adults have been investigating the crime scene since it happened."
Christian
"The fact that she was the only one spared can't be overlooked."
Christian
He looks over to where Aurelia stood, talking with Rose and the others.
Evan
"Her scent is human all over so this is even more confusing."
Edward
"I heard your dad gave you the task of watching her until we know more."
Christian
"I won't be going near her. I've tasked Charlotte to do it. "
Daniel
"Why? You look like you want nothing more than to be near her."
Christian
He simply gives Daniel a glare. They all know why.
Daniel
"S-sorry, hyung..." He hangs his head low, lowering his gaze.
Evan
"Well it seems like the girls are getting along well so she'll be ok."
Evan
He indirectly reassures Christian, knowing how the guy feels.
Christian
He isn't the same boy she knew and things can never be the same.
Christian
Even if it seems like a gift that she came back into his life,
Christian
... It's nowhere near the fantasy people could imagine it to be.
Christian
It's because of someone like him that she lost her parents.
Christian
It's because of someone like him that sadness is in those beautiful eyes.
Christian
It's best that he shouldn't get too close to her but still...
Christian
Every second since he had seen her has been agony and torture.
Christian
His wolf feels restless as neither he can pinpoint what's up.
Christian
She may have been important to him but it's only a matter of time.
Christian
He will soon come of age and the moon won't give him a choice.
Christian
The moon never give him any choices in life, after all.
Aurelia
I sigh in relief as I crashed onto my bed, rejoicing in the comfort it gave me.
Aurelia
I knew the first day of school was going to be a lot.
Aurelia
But it was more overwhelming than I ever expected.
Aurelia
It was great for the most part. Easy reconnecting with friends but..
Aurelia
He crosses my mind for the hundredth time today.
Aurelia
I can't help but wonder about what had happened in Christian's life.
Aurelia
For him to have changed so much...
Aurelia
I recall the times I spent with him back then. His gentleness, his laughter.
Aurelia
The first few months of my grieving, I had the same emptiness and agony.
Aurelia
But while I was slowly working my way back into the light,
Aurelia
Christian seems to choose to stay in the darkness.
Aurelia
With so many thoughts, I decided to get up and let some fresh air in.
Aurelia
I take the opportunity to look up at the stars and see the moon shining brightly.
Aurelia
I close my eyes, taking a deep breath in.
Aurelia
"I reconnected with some friends today."
Aurelia
"... But it looks like I can't have an important person in my life back."
Aurelia
"I bet you guys would know what to do... I miss you Mom and Dad."
Aurelia
As I open my eyes, I catch a reflection in the distance.
Aurelia
A flicker of a faint light in the woods behind your yard.
Aurelia
A pair of eyes that could only belong to a large animal.
Aurelia
It was glowing in the dark as it seemingly watched me.
Aurelia
But in a blink of an eye, they were gone.
Aurelia
Was it just a figment of my imagination?
Aurelia
Or was it the Big Bad Wolf lurking in the dark?
