[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Aria's breath caught. "A... werewolf," she repeated. She gave a soft laugh. "Seriously?"

[Grayzers]

He nodded, seeming ashamed

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Aria's smile faded. "You know... werewolf don't actually exist... right?"

[Grayzers]

He blinked, looking at her. "Werewolves are very much real. And I think I would know what I am... especially when I'm compelled to turn on nights with full moons."

[Grayzers]

"Humans have been raised to believe in a different version of werewolves. The ones seen in your movies. That isn't what we are."

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"Yeah?" she said skeptically. "And what are 'real' werewolves like?"

[Grayzers]

"Like the wolves found in forests. We hunt other animals, and howl at the moon, but we're much smarter and follow our minds rather than instincts."

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"Let me guess--you're not monsters," Aria said flatly.

[Grayzers]

Some of my kind are. I wont deny that. But most of us like to live, so we aren't monsters."

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Aria shook her head, still unable to believe him. She had no proof. "You're insane."

[Grayzers]

"You don't believe me. Would you if I showed you my other form?"

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Aria's face faltered, going from incredulous to nervous. "That's... really not necessary."

[Grayzers]

"Okay okay. Relax. I just don't want you to think im making it up."

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"I still think they're making it up," Aria said. "But I think, if somehow you aren't--god help me for even considering that--I'd rather you not transform into a wolf in front of me."

[Grayzers]

He nodded and turned back to the stove, turning it off and putting the noodles in the strainer.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Aria stood up and peered over his shoulder. "Is it ready?"

[Grayzers]

"Yes." He said, smiling slightly.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Aria backed off and sat down at the table again. She wasn't sure what to say. He seemed so... cordial, and yet he'd kidnapped her. What was she supposed to think?

[Grayzers]

He fixed them two plates and gave her one. "I hope you like it. I think I've perfected the sauce." He said, blushing slightly as he sat across from her and took a drink.of his water.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

See? So nice, and a bit cute despite it all. Where had that thought come from? She couldn't find him attractive. It wasn't right. "Let's find out," she said. She picked up a fork and took a bite, her eyes widening. That... that was actually really freaking good. "Wow."
