Grey – Chapter 8
Cassern
AN – This is probably the only time I'll write his POV but probably not.
Wayland's POV
Six months… six months since I've given Julian his space. I haven't seen or talked to him, so I think it's time I see him and beg for his forgiveness. But that's tomorrow, my Older Brother is coming tonight hopefully with the item I asked him to procure for me. Because I need it that item for Julian, I guess you could say it's a peace offering… I don't expect him to take it but he will.
This town, Beacon Hills… it's energy has been getting darker, at first, I thought it was me; my presence here but it's been getting darker way before I came to this town. I mean doing magic has been incredibly easy for me, I've been channeling endless dark energy. I'm pretty sure I can take out the local pack that Julian is so fond of but then he would definitely never forgive me and I would be back to square one. I need Julian to forgive me I can't imagine my life without him in it, I don't what it is about him that makes me so irrational.
At first, it was siphoning ability I found it so fascinating and interesting but then I got to know him. Clever, smart, and a bit sarcastic, he didn't let his siphoning ability limit his magical prowess. He's powerful but not as powerful as me but I want him to be as powerful as me, I want him to be my equal… I think I'm obsessed. I hear the front door open downstairs that must be Big Brother, I trek downstairs and see my Brother; he's holding a cooler. I smile excited "Is that it?" I ask "Hello, Little Brother." He said sternly "Sorry. Hello, Big Brother. Is that it?" I ask again as I go to grab the cooler but my Brother pulls away and places the cooler on a table "Yes, it is. Now where's my hug." He said.
I sigh and give him a hug "It's good to see you Little Brother." He said then he lets me go "It's good to see you too." I say back. I look over at the cooler sitting on the table, my Brother sighs and opens the cooler. I look at what's inside "Was it hard to find?" I ask "No, I have an acquaintance. He was willing to give up his blood but you might want to do something about the sire bond, it's rare but not so much with hybrids." My Brother explains. Good to know "Wait, you know a vampire?" I ask "Yes, he's a valued ally." He answers.
Right, my Brother has connections with all sorts of supernatural communities, witches, vampires, werewolves, you name it. I should be doing the same but not with that local pack I find them useless, I don't get why Julian wastes his time with them. My thoughts are interrupted "I don't think he'll take your 'peace offering'." My Brother tells me, I scoff "I don't understand your obsession with him." He questions "Why are you so obsessed with his Brother, hmm?" I ask back annoyed. My Brother glares at me and I glare back, he exhales "Good night." He said walking past me "Night." I say back. I sigh, welcome back, Big Brother I turn back to the cooler and look inside once again. Vampire blood… this will make Julian my equal and he'll be stronger than that pack, he won't need them.
The next morning, my Brother takes me to Julian's House. I have to admit, I'm a little nervous I don't know if Julian will hex me the second he sees me. I walk up to his front door and knock, the door opens I grin nervously "Hi, Julian." I greet. Julian stares at me and says nothing, well he hasn't hexed me so I guess that's a good sign. I clear my throat nervously "Well, I want to… apologize for… trying to… have you… killed." I struggle to say, I've never apologized to anyone before in my life but my Brother. I guess, Julian is different… he's special to me.
Julian sighs and sees the cooler I'm holding "Okay. What's in the cooler?" He asks, I smirk "A peace offering. Can I come in?" I ask "I'm going to be late for school." Julian tells me. I chuckle, I can't believe he's still going there "I'm sure you spare a few minutes, please." I say. He sighs again and walks back into his house, I guess that means I can come in. Julian sits on the couch in his living room and I place the cooler on the coffee table "Ready?" I ask a little excited "Just open it." Julian said irritated. I open the cooler and show him the vial of vampire blood, Julian has a mixture of emotions on his face "This… please don't tell me that is what I think it is?" Julian asks, I nod "Yes, Vampire blood." I answer.
Julian sighs in frustration and puts his hands in his face, okay… I guess, he doesn't like it. I sit next to him on the couch "Julian, what's wrong?" I ask "Why… why do you have this?" Julian asks back. Oh, right, how could I not explain the reason behind this peace offering "Right, sorry I forgot to explain. I did some research and found out that you aren't the only siphoner-witch around." I explain, "But I also heard of siphoners becoming vampires and they're still able to perform magic. You would have the abilities of a vampire and a witch; plus, you can keep your siphoning ability." I tell him, he seems interested but I think he's already made up his mind.
I wait for his answer, Julian looks at me "Thanks, but no thanks." He tells me as he stands up. I frown, a little upset "Why?" I ask "One, I don't want to die. And two, I don't want to be a teenage forever." Julian tells me. Is that all? "Well, I can spell the blood, so you can still age into adulthood." I assure him "And what about me dying?" Julian asks "Oh, um… I.." I say not having an answer for that. He's right I don't think there a way around death as far as I know. Maybe preventing it, I've also heard of witches coming back from death but I wouldn't even know where to begin. I should ask my Brother, maybe he would know something.
Julian sighs "Look, I forgive you okay. But I don't want to be a vampire." He tells me. Well, that's unfortunate but at least he forgives me, I smile a bit "Okay." I say, "You need a ride to school?" I ask "No, but I need some magic." Julian said. I smirk "Need to siphon me?" I ask a bit excited, Julian nods; I put my hands out for him to take, he grabs my hands and starts to siphon me. I love it when Julian siphons magic, especially when he siphons from me. It makes him stronger, I make him stronger. Which is why I acquired, the vampire blood to make him stronger and more powerful, to make him my equal.
Julian finishes siphoning me "You sure that's enough, you know I have plenty." I tell him "Yes, now come on. I'm gonna be late for school." Julian said. We leave his house "You sure you don't need a ride?" I ask again, Julian nods and takes a small breath "Vas affect naturae destinatum." He chants then he disappears. Huh, when did he learn that spell? Well, if he became a hybrid, he could do that spell with ease.
I sigh and walk to my Brother's car and get inside "So, did he go for it?" He asks, I shake my head "Sorry. Did he at least forgive you?" He asks, I nod "Well, good. Your back in his good graces." My Brother said. I shake my head "No, he forgives me but I know he doesn't trust me. I have to earn that back." I tell him, and somehow convince him to take vampire blood. "Well, I have somewhere to be, I'm going to take you home." My Brother tells me "Gonna see Julian's Brother?" I ask playfully, my Brother doesn't answer; he just smirks.
Later, I go to Julian's school, I see him get in a jeep with Stiles and the puppy, Liam. They're following some new wolf and I trail them, cloaked, of course. It seems they're wasting their time following him and Stiles looked like a fool trying to prove that the new wolf is up to no good but he's right something isn't right about that wolf. I decide to keep following the new wolf because I don't trust him either, I trail him to the school where he shifts into a full wolf. He goes into the school, a few minutes later Liam and his friend Mason are running from the school.
The wolf comes out of the school and heads into the woods I follow him, and he shifts back into his human form. I uncloak myself "Most wolves aren't able to do a full shift. You must be powerful." I say, he turns around surprised by my sudden appearance. He's fully naked, hmm, nice body "Who are you?!" He sneers as his eyes flash yellow "Wayland." I answer, "And who are you?" I ask "Theo." He answers "What are you?" I ask "I'm a werewolf." Theo answers.
I chuckle "No, you're not." I say, because I can sense something different about him, not sure what it is. Theo glares at me and walks menacingly towards me, I sigh and wave my hand sending him into a tree "What the- what are you?!" He asks stunned "A witch. A very powerful one." I say smirking. Theo's eyes flash yellow with his claws out and he charges at me, I give him a powerful aneurysm that brings him to his knees. I lean close to his face "I don't know what your planning with that local pack and I don't care. Just leave Julian out of it." I say.
Theo looks up at me confused "Who? That lanky kid whose scent smelled… sweet?" He asks, I frown at his description of Julian "You actually smell similar but more… bitter." Theo said "Why? What is he to you?" He asks smirking. Oohh… I see, he's trying to manipulate me, okay I'll play along "He's mine." I tell him, Theo chuckles "You like him." He states, duh, you idiot. Theo continues to smirk "Well, if he's yours shouldn't that be his choice." He said, I scoff.
Julian knows he belongs to me, he can have other friends but they're only temporary I'm the constant with the exception of his Brother, of course "I just realized something, Stiles had a similar scent to Julian's but it wasn't as strong." Theo tells me. I glare at him as my magic flares up, he really trying to piss me off and it sounds like Julian has been teaching his human some magic. I wonder if his brother knows, no good can come from a human learning witchcraft.
I smirk "Cute, trying to make me jealous. Like I said before, do what you will to that pack but leave Julian out of it." I say in threatening tone. I turn around, walk away, and make my way home. I chuckle, Theo maybe the solution to the problem I've been thinking about all day. I told him to leave Julian alone but I have a feeling he won't.
