Chapter 2

Hanna's P.O.V

I was walking out of my last class, Tech. I stopped suddenly sniffing the air. I almost choked. What was that smell? I hadn't smelt something like that in years. Then it dawned on me.

Werewolf..

I fought to control myself, I was glad I had very good self control from over the years I'd been alive. I gracefully skipped away from the class, not caring about the other students oogling my gracefulness. I wanted to see who this new person was. I knew my siblings probably knew about this new creature. I followed the scent to the school gates. I stopped. The scent was overwhelming , I caustiously sniffed the air once more trying not to gag. The scent came off the girl. She stood there watching the other students walk out of the school. I tilted my head. She wasn't from around here. She was unusual. This mysterious girl had long shiny black hair and vivid purple eyes. Her skin was pale like she didn't go out much, but not as pale as mine. She was wearing a pair of faded ripped jeans with a black shirt. The trainers she wore looked worn like she'd ran in the woods for too long. Her red and black striped socks were visible from the torn jeans. She looked about as out of place as we did. She had an air of mystery around her as I watched her look around casually with her slim pale hands in her jean pockets. She must have felt someone watching her as she pulled up her hood slightly hiding her face. This girl was shy. I smiled and casually walked closer. I heard her mumbling -

"Must be my school." She muttered.

"You're right there." I answered. No doubt she flinched very lightly when she heard me. My voice was high I knew she'd notice straight off the back I wasn't human if my scent didn't give it away. She sniffed the air and looked as if she wanted to gag but only growled in her throat. She had rolled her eyes and looked back at the school building.

"Well thats a nice way to greet people." I muttered quietly not leaving. I twitched as the wind blew, blowing my long brown curly hair around me. I watched her with my bright amber eyes. She raised her hand and moved the strand of her black hair pushing it behind her ear. I watched her narrow her eyes, I tilted my head confused before looking over and seeing my other siblings walk towards us.

Arlen the largest one out of our family looked over and raised a eyebrow seeing the girl standing next to me. He had a bear like build, his muscles huge, they could be seen through his jacket. He had short brown hair with amber eyes and his usual cocky smile. Before he started to talk again to one of the most beautiful girls in our school, my sister Cyrena - she had long silky blonde hair a slim model like figure with light amber eyes. Two figures stood next to her leaving a few feet in length apart .They were Darius the youngest newborn in our family. He had long blonde hair covering his amber eyes, my sister Lucia hung on his arm laughing, her small pixie like figure walking gracefully. The most unusual one in our family was Cyrin, he was distant from the others, his long raven black hair brought out his hidden amber eyes. He was lithe like a lion and had a temper of one. These were my other siblings of the Delcore family. I smiled, raising my hand and gracefully waving over to them. They all growled but Cyrin, who had frozen, looking at her.

"Bloodsuckers.." The girl growled under my breath. Arlen looked at her, his eyes narrowed.

"Mutt, what's a flea bag like you doing here?" He asked. The girl clenched her fist.

"Leech, I could ask the same thing, why are you in a school for humans?"

Lucia looked at Arlen and shook her head ," Don't Arlen." She said softly, her voice like bells.

"Whatever." Arlen replied rolling his eyes.

Cyrin said nothing watching the girl . She growled at them and turned around.

"Hey wait." Lucia said walking to me.The girl turned and looked at her.

"Yeah?" She asked quietly.

"I'm Lucia!" Lucia said happily. "What's your name?"

The girl blinked.

"Uh.. I'm Chrome." The girl replied caustiously. I twitched.

Arlen just pissed her off more.

"Chrome? " He snickered.

"Wanna do something about it Leech?" Chrome snapped, clenching her fists as they shook. "Because I can sure take you on right here and now."

Lucia looked at Arlen and growled slightly, "Stop it."

I sighed watching her walk away. I wanted to say more, ask her why she was here. But nothing came out. I glanced at Cyrin wondering what he had 'heard' from Chrome. The others said nothing watching her leave like I did. Suddenly Cyrin turned and stalked off towards his black mustang, without another word to us. I was confused, Cyrin never acted like that to us, he'd normally say something before leaving so suddenly.

'It most have something to do with Chrome.' I thought, 'But what?'

Lucia gained back her bubbly appearance and skipped over to us. "Come on let's go!" She grinned still holding Darius's hand as she turned gracefully and floated over to our other car. I sighed walking after them, glancing back at Cyrin as he drove off.

"It's probably not anything bad." Darius said sensing I was worried.

I nod, 'Probably.' I thought as I climbed into the car last. Arden competed with Lucia as she drove home, as normal. I rested my forehead on the window as the scenery rained by. I climbed out the car after it drove up our long hidden driveway in a second and was parked at our large garage. I stretched before walking to the door and stopped, seeing Tracey, our 'Mother'. She had long light brown hair with a warm smile on her heart shaped face. Her brown hair brought out her amber eyes.

"Mom?" I asked tilting my head confused.

"Welcome back you lot." Tracey smiled,"I just wanted to talk to you."

"Okay." I said walking past her and into the main room. You'd be stupid to think that all vampires had cobwebs or dark rooms with skeletons. Trust me, Tracey would never let a cobweb appear anywhere in the house , most of our room are light colours anyway to make us appear "Normal" though I doubt any human would come to our house for a visit.

I turned sitting down on the bottom of the stairs looking at Tracey," What'd you want to talk about?" I asked as the others sat down or leaned against a wall. I glanced around, still no Cyrin.

"Your father wanted to tell us something, but he had to go to work on a emergency so he told me." Tracey explained, "As you already know, there's a wolf pack not far from where we live, and they had just recently got their daughter and her children down here to stay. Now I want you to be careful near them, they're not normal wolves like the ones we knew."

"Got it." Arden muttered.

"We met one this morning." I spoke up.

Tracey blinked looking over at me. "What was their name , Hanna?"

"C--" I was about to say it but I was cut off when someone else said it.

"Chrome Cervello." Cyrin said leaning against the front door, his eyes a bright amber, the shadows gone from his eyes.
