How I became a monster.../ Chapter 5

Werewolves

Rebekah had stayed, she had chosen me. I understood her, who want stay alone during an eternity? I hid the coffin of Elijah in the barn, a witch who lived in the village had hidden it by magic. Then I killed her, I couldn't take the risk to let her go with our secret...Tatia had indeed gone, I had searched her into all the village. We were safe, that's what I thought. One night, full moon, a man screamed, there was a death. He kept yelling, saying it was necessary that all, we leave this cursed place. People tried to calm him.

The man then pointed the whereabouts of the body. I feared that it was Tatia, in seeing the body of the brown woman, covered with blood. It was not the work of a vampire, there was no trace of bite at her neck. However, she had deep gashes on her arms, legs and breast. The murderer did a massacre... The woman's body was burned, everyone was terrified, I had to know who was this monster.

I tried to convince myself it was just a human, but I knew there was something else that roamed in the neighborhood...then I thought to Tatia, again and again. She haunted my thoughts. I thought it was possible that she killed this woman.

She was inexperienced, no one had taught her to hunt. My heart sank everytime I thought of her. Despite my deductions, doubt persisted. The next day, people suspected us.

Nothing happened until the next full moon. I was in the woods when I heard a woman scream, there was grunts, I rushed as fast as possible. When I got there I saw no one, then I turned and I discovered Tatia, her dress covered in blood and a huge bite on his right shoulder. I ran toward her, she opened her eyes and smiled slightly.

• • Who did you do that? I asked, pointing to the ghastly wound.

  • I think it was a man, he had plenty of hair, he threw himself on me and ... I don't remember.

  • Why your wound doesn't heal?

She didn't answer and she closed her eyes. I took her, at my home by avoiding humans. I laid her on my bed et la couvrit with a blanket. Although vampires don't feel the cold, she trembled. The bite doesn't disappeared, I was really starting to be worried … I asked for help to Rebekah:

-What is it?!

-I'm not sure, but it looks very similar to Enrick's bites, the day when..

She looked down, uncomfortable. Obviously, I had guessed! A werewolf ..

-Do you know a cure? I asked.

-No, not me. Mother, she knew. She even spoke about it to Elijah, once.

-And the witches?

-I remind you that you killed the witch! she screamed. The only option left to me was to remove the dagger from Elijah's heart. I ran immediately to the barn, I opened the coffin and I withdrew the blade. My brother doesn't react, he remained motionless, stiff. I returned home enraged, Tatia was dying and I couldn't do anything! I didn't want to relive Enrick's death, I couldn't bear it. Suddenly I felt a presence behind me, Rebekah's eyes widened. Elijah. He didn't looked me and took my sister in his arms. Then he saw Tatia and ran towards her and he glared me.

-What did you do? He screamed.

-How can you accuse me! I never could have done that! This is also to save her that I made ​​thee back! I replied.

He looked at me without understanding so I explained to him the situation.

-She needs blood. He said.

-We have already tried, but its not working! I replied.

-No, I mean your blood ... only hybrid's blood can cure a werewolf bite.

I didn't think and I nicked the wrist with my fangs. I wore it to her lips, she drank greedily. Her wound diminished visibly. She opened her eyes, suddenly.
