A/N: Sorry if I confused some people with my last author's note. Even I was somewhat confused. When Harry went to live with Sue he took her last name. So what should Leah's real last name be?


Chapter 7

You gotta love those detection spells…

After checking the perimeter twice and finding nobody hiding or hanging out in hearing distance, I sigh and sink further into the sofa and into Nate's warmth.

"So where should we begin Nate?"

"How about from the very beginning?"

"Hmm, that sounds like a good idea, but this might take a while. " I say looking towards Alice and Rose who are sitting across from us.

"Alice, Rose how much do you know about the supernatural world we live in?"

They both perk up a bit when I say this, however only Alice answers.

"Not very much, we know about us Vampires, Shape shifters and Children of the Moon."

"Yes well, those are only a few of what are really out there. There are also witches, dragons, fairies and a few other things. What I'm about to tell you, no one else may know about. You may tell your family, since it will be hard to keep it from them but you are otherwise sworn to secrecy. If this gets out it won't only be our problem but yours as well." I tell them with a grave look on my face. I feel Nate give my hand a squeeze and he whispers "Good Luck."

With that he gets up to leave. Alice and Rose are surprised by him standing up and leaving but reply none the less with. "I swear."

"Ok then, don't worry about Nate he just has a few things that need to be done, he'll be back in a few." I say smiling. "So as you might know the Volturi are the highest chain of command in the Vampire world, we too also have People ruling over us. The Children of the Moon have their King and Queen. As does the Witches, Dragons and Fairies-"

"Wait a minute you said we too. What are you?" Rose says interrupting me. Alice sends her a glare but stays quiet. Hmm that's interesting I wonder what she must know?

"Yes that is true I'm not a shape shifter. I'm a Hybrid…"

"A hybrid of what Leah?" Alice pipes in. Maybe she doesn't know then.

"Of a Child of the Moon and a Witch. I must say I was surprised when I first met you, I thought that right away you would know what I am. Seeing as the Children of the Moon are you're mortal enemies. I figured it must have been a fluke but you didn't react to Nathan either and he's not a hybrid."

"WHAT! " Alice and Rose scream.

"It's alright though, we mean you no harm."

"How can you be-" Alice sputters, while jumping to her feet. Rose grabs her arm though and pulls her back down and says.

"Alice we've known Leah for such a long time and are friends with her. What type of friends would we be if we didn't accept her? But now this makes it official when I call you a dog." I laugh only Rose could turn this situation into a good one.

"I'm sorry Leah. I didn't mean to react like that it's just that your scent, while it's never had that gross wet dog smell and does appeal to me I never thought that you could be a child of the moon. How can you phase that easily then?"

"A spell, it makes me seem like a shape shifter, when in reality I'm not. Fortunately, I'm the only one who can connect to minds as easily as the shape shifters. "

"So how did you come to be a Hybrid then? And how did you meet Nathan?" Rose asks with a twinkle in her eye.

"Well it all goes back to before we were born. When there were times of war and bloodshed. "I start with, while trying to get more comfy on the sofa. This is really going to take a while.
